maybe he can be a repaint of the centurion drone ??

 

Thanks. While I say that a white Warpath redeco isn't exactly bad, it just isn't Slammer. I guess my hopes won't be realized. It's just the fact that even without adding the engineering to make a skyscraper mode for Slammer, it is hard enough to make Warpath look like Slammer in Tank mode.

Also, here is a meme about my statement saying that Skids has had more toys than Slammer. It was the first format that popped into my head when I said that.

Two letters: N. O. That mold is even less accurate than Warpath.

Meanwhile, the argument that Brunt didn't have a robot mode, so I shouldn't be complaining doesn't scratch my argument. It would need to have such an extensive remold that Warpath doesn't appear to have any ability to become Slammer.

Even just looking at his toy, I can see some toys which Slammer could share parts/engineering with if he was a Weaponizer/Modulator. The front of him reminds me of Brunt. The 4 lines I see molded into his turret looks like where Fasttrack's head is positioned in his vehicle mode. His tank mode without his turret reminds me of the Aircraft Carrier mode for Airwave. And finally, the cannon looks highly similar to one of the legs for Six-Gun. He reminds me of 4 Weaponizers/Modulators at once.

 

Dang I didn’t think anyone would care this much about slammer.

 

We all have our Slammers. For me it’s a comic accurate Wipe-Out. So I understand.

Plus, those Titan toys are big investments, so it’s only natural to want all their bells and whistles to show up eventually.

P.S.
Pixelmaster, if you’ve got any insight on Trypticon‘s development, I’d be much obliged.

 

@WhatWouldSkyLynxDo, I very much agree with that. Those are my feelings exactly. It's not that I care about Slammer specifically, it's just the fact that without Slammer, the Generations Metroplex Team just feels incomplete. Also, Wipe-Out is also something I would very much like to see. They say that he was turned into the Titan Master for Full-Tilt called "Necro" but that doesn't feel right. It is not him. In fact, he was actually based upon the toy for Tailgate, and not his Character model. You can actually tell based upon details on Wipe-Out that are not on Tailgate's Character model, but were on his toy. So a redeco/slight remold of Power of the Primes Tailgate would work for Wipe-Out. And it would give comic book fans at least something based upon the Marvel Comics. The Marvel Comic Designs are some of the Coolest Designs out there.

 

Thanks, and good luck to your Titan completion adventures. At least we know Slammer is coming. Hopefully he’ll be good  

 

There's a saying in Comic Books:

"Every character is someone's favorite." Which is mostly true.


-ZacWilliam, also "Every issue is someone's first." but that's less relevant...

 

pixelmaster may i ask if hasbro has plans for a reissue of the transmetals and transmetals 2??

 

However besides Slammer, more characters I am interested in are the Core Class Fossilizers. I watched Transformers Slag Podcast's video about the Walmart Listings that were shown and he told about 2 Core Fossilizers called Bite Marx (not sure about the space) and Stomp Chomp. Now, neither sound like they were talking about the currently known Vertebreak, so that begs the question, "Who are they?" Bitemarx could be the alligator from the mural, but what about Stomp Chomp? Maybe the Sabertooth cat that was on Optimus Primal?

 

From a faked leak from 4Chan that was demonstrably wrong, namely in the Mutant Rodimus listing.

 

So, is it a static accessory or could maybe railgun <=> something else like helicopter blades?

For some reason I just really want a Kingdom-ized TFA Megs... or a heli-tank triple changer.... Ugh, I need to see this, bring on some pics Hasbro!

 

Nothing more than what I've already reported. He looks good, more G1 accurate and is replacing my MP.

I don't have a list/solid intel on this, my friend just said the team seemed really confident in the mold. From what I've seen it does look like the definitive CHUG Galvatron.

We need to be careful here to remember the cannon and railgun are separate weapons/pieces

The railgun is formed from two static pieces. You can join them together to make the railgun, or add each separate flat piece to the cannon barrel, or peg on Galvatron's back in bot mode as weird shoulder pylons.

 

The two railgun parts are just extra accessories, Nothing to do with his alt modes right?

 

Is the railgun the only deviation from the G1 Galvatron? Are there more parts dedicated to a tertiary mode or play feature? I forget what all has been said about him thus far or what to expect other than that. Is he a triple changer? Did I hear that somewhere?

 

Not that I'm aware of. Basically you can add/store them on either mode, but mine will be going in a storage bin.

Pretty much, Galvatron has his matrix necklace which can be worn/attached in both modes.

Not a triple-changer, but wouldn't be surprised if some clever people on these boards find a way to fan-mode an 'upside-down submarine' out of him somehow.

 

Did they manage to make a purple robot turn into a grey cannon? I remember that was one of the explicit design goals for Universe Galv.

 

This is what I'm expecting. Maybe a slight retool of the turret to make it more squarish, but nothing more.

 

They'll glue it together everywhere to be more G1 accurate

 

Eneron Megatron/Galvatron had some weird shoulder canon pylon things, maybe the railgun\back pieces are a reference to that particular iteration of the character or a pretool for that
particular repaint

 

I doubt it, since the cannon wasn't gray in the cartoon, which they're aiming for. I believe one of the more speculated ideas is a toy/comics colored repaint coming for those who want him gray
