Selects has access to Kingdom molds, just like it has access to Power of the Primes, Siege and Earthrise molds. Selects Galvatron is the same Mold as Kingdom Galvatron and Selects Artifre is the same mold as Kingdom Inferno
Yeah, it's one of the reasons why I want that 3rd party IDW-styled Overlord. Especially with the current WFC scale he fits right in. TR Overlord absolutely works for me as Masterforce Overlord but not so much IDW.
Pipes, yay! Also hoping for an upscaled , beefier & sturdier Powerglide. Not a fan of the legs on the last version.
I wonder if chefatron is waiting to get the other gun to do the review, i also wonder if it also comes with a shield like huffer
Should come with the 2nd identical gun. Otherwise he'd be pipe, not pipes. Probably doesn't come with shield or splitting gun. AKA the truck bed parts. Too many accessories.
Not that much of a heascratcher. The cab and lower legs share the same mold, that was carried over from Huffer. Same as the former silver pieces. Everything else is new. I think the wheels might actually be painted-over white plastic. They look glossier than Huffer's, and he doesn't have any other black plastic at all.
I'm definitely not a fan of the all the white. If I can find another Huffer on discount I might pick it up and to a parts swap. If not, I'll just live with the white.
Pipes looks to be a nicer use of the mold than Huffer which is good cause i like Pipes more than Huffer.
I never really cared about Huffer, but for some reason I really liked the Kingdom figure. Now, I haven't gotten it yet, and another use of the mold, now of a character I do have some attachment to, is coming. I guess I won't be getting Huffer anymore. It's Pipes all the way. Color and shape makes me think of TLK Deluxe Barricade for some reason.
How does retooling the wheels make any sense though? He didn't need that, they could have retooled the cab for the different headlights, or not even retooled anything else since even the headlights being different is pretty minor.
But the headlights are not a separate piece from the cab, which is quite big. So to give him retooled headlights, they’d need to make the mold big enough to put an entire second cab on there, which would be an enormously expensive undertaking. Wheels are tiny, so they may have easily fit somewhere on the part of the mold that holds the new pieces.
I never had the original Pipes as a kid. This will be my first time buying the character. He can hangout with Swerve, by the Season 3 stuff.
He's already turned off the comments for the video. I wonder how that derailed so quickly. (I have a pretty good idea...)
Sounds like strange planning to me. They didn't change the single most prominent thing that made Pipes different than Huffer?
Quite cowardly. His attitude needs an adjustment. Even PvP will take a good punch or two. What makes Chefatron so special? Nothing.
