Aaaannnddd Pre-ordered!

Now....give me all the repaints.

 

I could, but I'm not into having doubles. I just like a single bot mode display. Plus, if I sell them or trade them, that means more bots!

 

What do we reckon the chances are of them also coming with the Spacebridge parts and stands?

 

Instead of space bridge / stand, I do hope they come with crown and Cape for Starscream

 

About as good as having die-cast feet I'm guessing...

 

I can sometimes sweet talk my suppliers into doing things I suggest ; but if anyone else wants to put out to the world that it would be nice to have gap fillers for Jinbao Megs too - I think hat can't hurt for more people to ask,

I have a couple of the New Age "Seeker" Mould and it's decent enough - once you get the upgrade for the wings. There is somethings I like some i'm not so keen on, I'll absolutely get any Jinbao jets though as hopefully being a bit bigger will mean that the legs are not so fiddly to change.

I wonder if they will upscale Ironhide and Friends too ?

 

That's how it started for me 10 years and $50k ago....

 

Are the waist and knee joints tighter than NA???

 

rather get upgraded legs than the gap filler to be honest. they did already give a small left hand bit though, which does improve it marginally than before.  

not sure if it's because it has a higher centre of gravity because it's upscaled, or just the tolerances isn't as good, or maybe combo of both, but i find posing JB megs isn't as stable as the original NA megs.

 

and who says you can't mix MFT with JB with MS with NA???  

 

Holy cow! I'm guessing that's quite a collection!!

 

Unfortunately yes, with doubles and triples, plus other lines... My stock is bigger than most local stores (I mean the small stores, not the department stores)  

 

If you know the scale, of course you can mix them. I have a mixed collection too!.  

 

I mod my MS Megs to have it up to 12.3cm tall to match HS Optimus. These Jinbao seekers would go nicely with Megs.

 

I knew I saw a post where someone did that. You added 3mm to his feet or something, correct?

 

Yeah. That some1 was me.  

I added 3mm plastic sprue to its feet. You can see the color difference. Doesnt affect transformation. I have a mixed collection as I am going for 1:50-ish scale.

I love the newage seekers clean look. It looks like Jinbao's seekers would be about 11.9cm if the OS ratio (1.4x bigger) is the same as their Megs. I probably will be modifying their feet and exhausts to make it slightly shorter to at least match MS Soundwave.

 

Huh, I actually like the regular size better but hey if these are way cheaper I might bite. Newage was a bit ridiculously overpriced.

 

That's mystruggle. I wish these weren't oversized, but for the price I may fudge on the scale thing. That's if I even dip my toes in the legend scale collecting.

 

I dont get the issue with the wings. NA looks G1

 

Now that Jinbao has OSKO'ed Prime, Megs, and now Seekers, I hoping that they will continue to OSKO legends figs, but I wonder if they'll do individual figures that don't come with a ton of accessories like Megs and Prime, or if they'll continue to release 3-packs like Insecticons, Reflector, Datsun Bros, or maybe a Soundwave + tapes.

I'm also hoping that they'll eventually OSKO the upcoming legends Menasor from either MS or NA, seeing as how they started with OSKO'ing combiners in the first place.
