Thanks!

That should be fixable. I'll get to work on him as soon as I have him.

 

for me it’s going to look amazing next to my Masterpiece figures!

 

You can find 3d models of many popular cars that people have shared. Assuming models of these specific cars exist, it probably wouldn't be too difficult to mod them to be able to attach to Menasor.

 

I picked up the first set so we'll see how it goes when it gets in!

Menasor was never something I owned as a child so I was unaware of how the set transformed, and what the trailer did in the G1 days. Boy oh boy I was surprised with how bad the combiner form was. Alt modes great! Combiner not so great lol

 

Already put my full payment in so there's no waiting on me in the process of getting MM to his friends.

What are the bots MS has announced and we believe will be upcoming? Preceptor was a bit out of left field while other prototype bots have vanished. If memory serves, Perceptors' head was shown in a render along with Hound and Sunstreaker just about the time the carbots were offered as a three set.

 

way to go   did my full payment for MM in january, so should be no problems  

Motormaster eta will be around April 10. Prowl shouldn't be a long wait anymore and Shockwave same story. I asked Showz about those 2, haven't got a reply yet. MM eta was confirmed by Showz, it all depends on MS eventually.

I'm definitely waiting for the rest of the carbots, I love Jazz, Wheeljack etc etc!

 

I'm super excited. I cant wait for this configuration. I hope we see new photos of this

 

Yes. Same. This is how Menasor should look. Always have been much more partial to the toy or Studio OX looks.

 

Cars on the front of the shins FTW, that's how I'll rock my MS Menasor.

 

You got a link to that video, cowboy, or are you just gonna tease us with images?

 

Is there any price known for the Menasor combiner figure?

 

The first set of limb bots, Breakdown and Wild Rider, are $50. Motormaster is $130. The price of the final set of limbs, Drag Strip and Dead End, is not yet known. If they're the same $50 that the first set of limbs, then we're looking at $230 for the set of five.

 

I’ve read the past few pages and can’t find any mention of this... is it confirmed whether the combiner portion turns into the trailer without partsforming?

 

Right, seems like I'll need a bigger shelf...

 

Yes, based on this transformation video.

Note though, that partsforming is required for alternative configurations.

 

I think I really like these guys.. just keep picking them up and messing with them every so often. Got to be honest after reading about others views of them I was a but wary... but I can't wait to get the rest of the team!! May even keep them in separate rather than combined mode once I have the whole team...   

But then again maybe not!!  

 

No video link, unfortunately. I found these pics on a random facebook page. I tried to find the video they're from--honest!--but to no avail.  

edit: Found it!  

 

You are the man! Thanks for finding the video  

 

Between this and the Shockwave video, my morning is completely derailed.  

Edit: Motormaster's cab transformation has got to be the most incredible bit of engineering that MS's designer has done. Like, this guy is the Tony Stark of turning lower legs into anything that shouldn't be possible, that you can think of.

And this super-flexible material they're using that looks like ABS until flexed? Wow. That's going to open some serious doors for what is possible going forward.

I've always been concerned about the combiner's joint strength on this guy and future MS combiners, and it's reassuring to see that when the reviewer knocks Menasor over that none of the joints move. This guy's a tank.
