Literally I’m glad that both the CAD files and paint schemers are toon accurate now, it’s better than paying import fees for a weird update of a boomer toy with a G1 accurate scheme to boot Rodimus is actually worth the money, he’s got crazy articulation and the trailer has some really nice mass. Pictures don’t do it justice, you have to play with him in hand to truly feel where the money went to. I’m interested in how Star Saber in CHUG is 200 but I’m optimistic about that Hasbro isn’t ripping us off.
Oh yeah, I can tell Roddy is worth the money... I just don't have the money for him (thats for star saber) With $200-$250, it will definatly be a strong showing engineering wise. I have MP-24 and he is super disappointing. All the money went to diecast that flakes if you look at it the wrong way.
Well he has a lot of pointy things going on. The weapons also arent very American style G1. He almost looks like he is piloted by humans rather thsn being alive. Something about the aesthetic screams Zord, Valkarie, or Voltron.
I don't even know who you are or care... Just let the shit go and lets continue with potentially overpriced new JG1 figures, shall we....
I feel like I should be putting the Joker "not sure if serious" meme here... but just in case the first one I was referencing last years Pit of Judgement: originally to be an SDCC exclusive that became a Pulsecon Exclusive when SDCC didn't happen due to Covid. it came with a repaint of Quintesson Judge, a remolded Alicon as the Quintesson Bailiff, a repainted Legends TR Sharkticon and new minifigures of the Quintesson Prosecutor and Kranix in a super-sweet box with multiple levels. Transformers Generations War for Cybertron Trilogy Quintesson Pit of J – Hasbro Pulse hshas had 3 production runs I believe. the 2nd wave of the Netflix War for Cybertron exclusive line, which has Voyagers as battle packs with 2 micromasters/minicons included Seige Soundwave remolded to G1 Soundwave complete with tape deck mold. it looks a little weird because it has some vestigial remnants of the Siege mold like the flip out cannons on the arms and some panels that feature the Siege's over-greebled detailing style and some that are more normal CHUG like ER/K, but still looks pretty dang good. It also included Siege Ravage and Laserbeak with better new heads. Transformers War for Cybertron Series-Inspired Soundwave Battle 3-Pack – Hasbro Pulse
I would happily buy those excellent custom Victory fan made renditions over this Haslab wannabe one any day. Those are pretty awesome.
I had zero people on my ignore list before this thread came into being. Now I have two. If Star Saber (hopefully Victory Saber) is really $200+, then he’s gonna be a marvel of a toy that I can’t wait to own!
Thanks, my kid has more Transformers than I do now. When Cyberverse showed old characters like Injector from Beast Wars and my kid liked the show, I thought "I remember that bug from Beast Wars that was never on the show" and got one for him off of Ebay and surprised him with it, and he loves that ugly fish bug, and now I do too. It's moments like that that make me love this hobby, figures I wasn't into when I was younger somehow seem interesting now.
Would Victory Leo need to be commander class too? I always assumed he was smaller because most of his body turns into Saber's boots with the rest winding up on his back.
