Its a waste because he's a great character deserving of a good toy. I think thats why a lot of people were unhappy with Galvatron, G2 Prime and Thunderwing. They're supposed to be imposing figures, and yet they're normal sized figures in the Classics line. Also, making him a deluxe would make him almost the same size as the Robot Masters toy from a few years ago, so there's not much difference.
Uh no. That's not what went wrong with Galvatron. It was originally designed as a Voyager, then got reduced to a deluxe. You need to remember that Generations is pretty much only going to be deluxes. I have RM Victory Saber, and I can tell you right now, that if they did a Star Saber, it would be nothing like the RM version.
Ok I didn't know that, but nevertheless, I think people were hoping he'd at least be a voyager like Classics/Henkei Megatron. I have RM Victory Saber as well, and I really want to have something more imposing. Generations has produced voyagers in Solar Storm Grappel, Lugnut, Strafe, so here's hoping they'd can make a Star Saber in that size.
For those saying the picture is of the robotmasters starsaber look closer the arms and legs are elongated and contain extra joints also the guns are different.
Well, "technically" those were Reveal The Shield. Everything that specifically has the Generations label is deluxe sized. I get what you're saying, though.
The Pic contained is def the RM mold with additions. There were quite a few well done mods (cannons that could point up, double joined knees and armd, etc) that i was attempting to copy that make the RM look like that on the front page. If someone has just made replacement parts or an upgraded full figure it would be fantastic.
I'm not sure I see those changes, but if so... isn't that bad news for people wanting a full 3rd party Victory Saber? Wouldn't that imply it's just an upgrade kit for a diminuitive 7-year old toy that might be rather hard to find now?
I'm not sure how they'd make the additions. You'd have to completly destroy the RM Star Saber to add the new joints and such. Maybe its their own 'complete toy' that uses the RM mold as a basis?
Wow, seems like every week we get one or two 3rd party reveals. Crazy! But awesome. Unfortunately, one day the bubble will burst
Damnit 3rd Party companies stop it. Just stop it....... I can't afford these things. Hopefully Hasbro plans to make Victory Saber down the road.
You say that but the robot heroes were planned and almost released and on top of that the remold shown in thunderwings instructions looks to be black shadow so i wouldn't rule anything out especially not with star saber.
looks like a nice toy but i dont see a lot of added articulation at the moment and if it is not at least leader size when combined im out i had the robot master series one and it was to small for the classics line maybe hasbro takara will up size the robotmaster version with added articulation and voyager size individual figs come on hasbro takara do it
Oh well, better than nothing, I guess. But it's about damn time TF:Victory toys were remade into modern incarnations.
