Oh yeah, very informative and thorough.

 

What custom do you have in mind? I've been thinking in an Optimus prime similar to the one from FOC

 

You could always put him with traditional MPs.

 

Yeah, but I don't have any traditional MP bumblebee figures. I've got Zeta Bee, Toyworld Prime, 3A Soundwave, Zeta Blitzwing, the KO 3A Bee, and the Yolopark model kit Optimus, all of which are 3A scale, and I've got the cybertronian SS figures. This figure wouldn't fit either of those collections. Which is not to say it's not valid and cool, just that it's not for me.

 

I gotcha, that is a shame.

I hope we see more of these, I really want an Ironhide and I would love the three seekers. I think they should add some MP style hands that would bring these to another level. I mean the designs are already great, you add some extra paint, articulated hands, and keep them close to the price of their smaller counterparts, I would rebuy them all in MP size.

 

This clean white looks weird with MPMs. They should have given him some weathering at least, he looks way too toyish

 

@capcomkai posted pics of an Ironhide version on Instagram. Looks even better than Ratchet!

 

Those colours look nice. They haven't fixed the tabbing issue on the side panels, I see.

I wish they'd make non-OS versions of these, haha. Love the improved paint and details, but I don't need these molds to be giant.  

 

Nice! I wonder if they'll keep milking this mold with variants, or stick to what was on screen? I'd like to see him in black.

 

This is awesome! Some people don't want to get Ratchet because they thought it was just one figure but now we have Ironhide too.

It would be awesome to see more characters of the line.

 

Happy we're getting an Ironhide, no matter how inevitable it was. im still holding out for them to give us an OSKO of Wheeljack

 

i need the whole ss bbbm squad in this scale. all the cybertron modes. even bee and cliff. that would be great please thankyou

 

Does anyone have pics of this figure next to zeta Bumblebee, zeta blitzing, bingo toys shockwave or mechanical alliance soundwave?

I can't seem to find pics showing how he scales with this figure.

Just wondering what he scales with... Thanks.

 

First page of this thread, mate.

 

A Bulkhead retool of this would be fantastic.

 

I think the figures look nice but I have mostly osko scale like zeta Bumblebee, zeta blitzing, bingo toys shockwave or mechanical alliance soundwave and Im not sure but I feel like this figure is a bit too small still to fit in.

It seems like he's about the same size as zeta Bumblebee which is probably too short. Too bad as I like how it looks and the price is right.

 

I would love that, BUT if I'm the 4th party company I would do the seekers next. You get that shot in the arm of easy money by grabbing the Blitzwing mold amd repainting it (with some head swaps) atleast 4 times (Blitzwing, Starscream, Skywarp, and Thundercracker).

Then I would do Wheeljack, Brawn, Shatter (PLEASE), Dropkick, etc. On account they are a one time deal.

Shoe horming Bulkhead as part of the 'van' mold makes sense to me

Yeah, you are right. Ironhide/Ratchet are MP(M) size and Zeta, bingo, and MA are ThreeZero DLX and early Masterpiece size (MP1/MP2/MP4/MP5) Scale.

 

I hope they do Arcee, Brawn and the bees too.
