I was starting to warm up to Toyworld's until Transcraft and Toylab announcement/proto (there's being not as big also helped). I no interest in Weijang's (OS of the SS-38), Aoyi Mech's (too big), and Fire Scorpion's (way too big and don't like how it's torso looks).

Basically, I'm deciding between either Transcarft's or Toylab's.

 

Already own Wei Jiang's it's fantastic.

 

$300 well spent, in 2021, when both are released.

 

Since the juice in turning the figure into alt mode would likely not be worth the squeeze, for this design the 3A non-transformable figure would likely suit this character need best for me.

 

I'm only considering Transcraft for the virtue of it not being 3A/ThreeZero Scale. I just want something to scale properly with the MPM-4 so I can display them side by side for comparison.

 

It still amazes me that out of six options, only one is trying to fit with people's official collections

 

My Scoring -

Bot Mode - Score Weight 60% - FS70/TC50/FL85/DK95
Alt Mode - Score Weight 40% - FS75/TC85/FL65/DK90

Fire Scorpion - C- 72%
Tactical Commander - D 64%
{An impressive knock off, in a lower category, and yet it can hang with some of the big boys.}
Freedom Leader - C+ 77%
Dark Knight - A- 93%

 

Which one? It's hard for me to keep track.... I want the one that best fits the alt mode scale of the MPM Autobots, given the sliding scale they use...

 

TransCraft's Optimus is slated to be about 10".

 

Transcraft, though they haven't revealed it, have confirmed their prime will be the same height as MP10

 

The new pictures of FireScorpion are awesome!.

 

I dunno. I feel the chest is too broad and makes the shoulders and lower legs look a bit too small.

 

Beta Tier - Tactical Commander - Fire Scorpion
Alpha Tier - Freedom Leader - Dark Knight - TC-?

 

Whichever one has the least bad face sculpt.

 

Undecided.
Problem is that while these Optimii look great all painted up, I liked- loved- the back of the cab on the Studio Series that helped form the legs... and sadly I’m not seeing that on any of these.

 

Really?
I thought it was a head smaller than the Voyager SS OP

 

That's another company under the name of lemon tree

 

Got it.
Thanks.

I’m getting all these jumbled.

you know what the forum needs? A separate thread for each one and a ‘thread grouping function’ that keeps them all together so that if 1 gets bumped, they all get bumped.

 

I'm pretty sure I can't afford any of them, plus I already have 2 OPs. I hear 3rd party stuff is expensive. But I sure do love Scorpionfire Prime.

 

Yeah that would be neat. Tho has the forum gotten much if any updates like that? I've only been here 3 years but even then, not a single update to the site.
