    If her mission was to assassinate someone in a bar, she might need bartending skills to get into the right position... Not every mission will have raw combat skills as the best option.

    The Untold Story of how Tarn managed to get Deathsaurus on his side against Megatron: he gave his sister away!!!

    The Red Wedding has nothing on this award winning plotline. I wonder why Milne never released it???

    More femmbots is never a bad idea. Also, MMC, could we please get a Nightbird? That\'d be nice.

    My head cannon is she was originally Esmeral and had the ability to mimic any combatant. She was killed but because of her ability she was chosen to be rebuilt, enhanced and to became the next Tarn and lead a new version of the DJD. The previous Tarn and the other DJD were killed off by Megatron.

    One of her first target from The List is Deathsaurus. They fought but then it was reveal to him that Tarn (Eris) was actually a not dead Esmeral. Deathsaurus tries to get his wife back but she enjoys her new life as Eris. Kind of like the story in BM where Blackarachnia is an enemy of Jetstorms, then finds out he is actually Silverbolt and tries to get him back.

    I absolutely could not help it, this thing looks so cool. Preordered it. I cannot wait. I have the MMC MTMTE Megatron and Rodimus and they're excellent so I'm super excited.

    I don’t think that’s accurate at all. It’s only 2 sets of treads as a backpack.
    upload_2021-4-3_15-55-44.png
    I mean, the legs become the turret, which also rotates, the other half of the treads are the shoulders. This is not at all like a fembot shellformer. You don’t get a full figure from just the backpack. This sort of kibble is on the level of a G1 seeker at least.
    I mean you just answered yourself lol. My idea is that Deathsaurus digged Tarn’s vibe but couldn’t deal with his extreme stance on Decepticonism so he thought Esmeral should take over and rebrand the DJD.
    Gains the ability of not being able to shut up.
    This figure would be quite nice in a bright red.

    Does normal Esmeral have a preexisting colour scheme or is it just assumed she’s the same colours as Deathsaurus?

    Based on the lack of other replies it seems I'm the only one who cares. I just like the idea of being able to look over the progress of a project in the first post, and this one doesn't have much since it went from just a quick tease last year to production ready this year.

    I like the "backpack", it gives her mass and make her look intimidating.

    Only a third of the tank is formed from her backpack. The rest is robot parts.

    This is aiming for a very specific demographic that I am in the dead center of. Both modes look amazing with little to no compromises between either of them.

    So I just check my order page on PSX and the pre-order I made for this isn't there? I got the confirmation email and they took the money but no order info on site, already contacted them but now I'm worried.

    You keep saying it looks like generic fembot.

    how about showing examples of “generic” fembots and “non-generic” fembots.

    Because my idea of a generic fembot would either be the ones from Austin powers or a woman painted silver like EDI from Mass Effect.

    If anything this design looks more like an Evangelion, which was more of a cyborg/kaiju, what with the lithe, almost gangly proportions and tall shoulder pylons.

    Is this an official character? I love it and will likely get it.

    It's a gender-bent Tarn that's part of Ocular Max's new line of reimagined takes on characters.

    He sounds like someone trying to shift the goalpost after being called out. Besides, MMC already did Titanika, Ni and Nitro for 'non-generic' fembots, to name a few.

    That happened to me recently and it was because I wasn't logged in when I placed the order. It isn't really apparent throughout the order process if you're logged in or not and doesn't prompt you to create an account prior to ordering if you aren't logged in. I emailed and they refunded me so I could replace the order under my account but I ended up somehow losing $5 in the currency exchange process.

    Right I mean if the person is talking about fembot with more super-model feminine type bodies like Arcee, Elita-1, Chromia, slipstream, wingblade. That just him body shaming that body type. I mean thinking about 'non-generic' fembot isn't Lugnut a fembot now as of TF cyberverse? You also have Strongarm from Tf RID2015.
