There's a handful of combiners. Can't think of any Maxes, Scorps or the like.

 

The only one I can recall would be Toyworld Infinitor/Grant but I know that was released ages ago at this point. It's the perfect scale for stuff like them so it's a bit odd that there's such a lack.

 

Yep, TW Fort Max, IF Scorps, and the MasterMade bots, if you're into some chibi.

 

Subdurmal - "Who wants a core class Hotrod?"

Sharkticons - "Me! Me! Me!"

 

Sometimes you just really need a tissue…

full thoughts and more after the break!

Spoiler: ^_^

Love coming home to a new fig after a long day at work!



First impressions: nice.

There’s something about Artfire’s color scheme that speaks so well to the already glorious Fuso. Tampos are magnificent. Red rims also pop really well here.



Transformation was a BREEZE. Didn’t even bother taking the instructions out - right back in with the insert. Smooth, satisfying, and fast. The Newage special.

It really pays off, too. The proportions here are so flavorful. No ab crunch is a bit of a *_* but with the beauty of the ladder transformation at this scale, I’ll allow it.

All those joints are buttery smooth while also being tight, the “Goldilocks” tolerances, if you will.

Even Nightstick’s microscopic ball joints feel just right.



A working targetmaster at this scale is mind-boggling, to say the least, but I suppose it was inevitable after NA/MS tapes. Looks goofy, but the gimmick always kinda has. Love it anyways! (also yes I notice now his right calf panel isn’t clicked in)



Penny for scale, like always.



50 dollars for a legends scale targetmaster is way too steep… at least it comes with this firetruck display stand…..  

Anyways, all in all, a massive recommendation from me. $51.99 @ ShowZ for a well painted, beautifully tampo’d bot that feels rock solid and brings a whole targetmaster to the table? Count me in!

oh, and a hint for next time….

it’s mean, lean, and ____!

 

Got mine too yesterday   My favorite version of the mold. And great to have another Targetmaster   Just a small correction on your review he does have an ab crunch!

And with a picture   Highly recommended!

 

Ooh… NA Artfire has finally released? That’ll get ordered today, then!

 

Why you gotta do this to me, man… I wasn’t gonna order the grapple mold just yet, i just bought omega…

 

Sengoku intensifies

 

Is NewAge H44B Clover a good choice to buy next? I was thinking of getting a Ymir or one of his different variants as my second Newage figure. I am asking because Clover is on sale for 30% off / 54.99 and I want to get a Ymir. Is Clover a good choice?

 

that looks great all set up like that. while the samurai aesthetic isn't my preferred look. you damn sure make them shine in that pic.

 

I’m a massive fan of Ymir, he’s one of my favorite figures of all time. Clover does look good, though deco is of course down to personal taste. Cant recommend the mold enough.

 

Youre too kind =]

 

I love that divebomb is just hanging out in arm mode instead of, yknow, flying as a bird

 

Thanks! To be honest, I wasn’t actually sure if that was a proper crunch - my copy is rather tight and I feel like manipulating it is putting pressure on the ladder assembly. I’ll have to mess with it more.

Your wallet isn’t my only victim…. I’m a terrific propagandist.

Absolutely.

 

Just got NA Artfire today and love him!

 

Finally transformed this guy. Some QC issues leave me nonplussed.

 

if you don't mind me asking. what qc issues did you come across with your bots?

 

Just some quick shots to celebrate the arrival!

 

where’s he boutta put that cannon
