    Consolidated recent and most relevant new posts for MS Hound from old thread as it should be it's own separate thread.

    For some reason I didn’t care for this in the other thread and now I kind of like it. I do hope his face gets a little sharper. It not only looks blurry in the photos, but it’s like he was molded blurry or something.

    Glad to see we have individual threads for these figures. :thumb 

    Hound is a favorite character of mine but I don’t have a figure of his yet so looking forward to this one! Hopefully soon.

    if he's a fav of yours, you might want to check out MFT hound. it's an older bot but it's actually quite decent, especially for the price.

    MFT MS-13 Detective - Legends+ Hound

    and there's also IF hound. it's much more stylized but still a great looking and fun representation.

    Iron Factory EX-38 Optics Hunter (Hound)

    i have and enjoy both. but looking forward to seeing more of and most likely picking up both MS and NA hound. :p

    Same, been waiting for these guys for a long time (Hound, Jazz, Ratchet, Mirage etc).
    When figures get an official MS post on Weibo, like this Hound post, it usually doesn't take long anymore before being released.
    Now, if MS would reveal the Dinobots, I would freak out... :cool:

    3rd times a charm, eh @TIKnTIN ?
    The face will peg into his head, so it will be an easy fix to take care of for you guys.

    That thigh gap would make many Chinese fan girls jealous. Other than that it looks great. I see they’re sticking with using TT MP face sculpts. Good call, as TT can’t be beat in that department.

    heh, i thought i'd return the favour and lend you a hand to champion your crusade. ;) 

    i find the face on the initial MS grey prototype sculpt looked good, so curious if detailing may have gotten lost when it got molded for production. but if MS hound's final production face does turn out to be a bit of a dud, wonder if MFT hound's head would scale and could be fitted onto MS hound, as i quite like the MFT head sculpt.

    WTF is up with the face? I can’t tell if it’s just blurry pics or if they are actually a good representation. He looks like Neo in the Matrix where the agents melt his mouth shut.

    If all these pics are accurate that might be a deal breaker for me.

    edit I guess it’s just a very dull looking smiley face. *sigh*

    I’m guessing the green color doesn’t show detail well in photos
    Also as I’ve learned it hard to take good face photos of the little guys sometimes.

    Legends figures are looking better and better by the day! I wonder if they'll ever redo Prowl, BlueStreak, or Smokescreen :0

    Wow, that's now! I hope it's true, but I also hope the face won't be a disappointment.

    Definitely like this one over the NA version, every single thing is better on this one. Just hope it scales well with my mix.

    If somebody would just make Sunstreaker and Windcharger I could be done. Maybe Skids too.

    interesting, bombus has their preorder but, per below, imply they haven’t heard anything from MS on hound. of course that doesn’t mean anything per se, but they’ve been the quickdraw winner lately, especially with MS.
