i think the new sideswipe is far to small it just comes up to mp10,s waist surely in the cartoons he was bigger than that , basically its to small but still very cool ive got red alert on pre order and just pre ordered soundwave i cant wait to get em . I think the mp line is coming on very nicely and im more than happy to keep handing my cash over for them

 

Just wondering if there is a scale picture from the 84' cartoon for the season 3 characters, similar to the one from season 1. Just wondering how Springer and others should scale. Thanks in advance.

 

Not to scale.

 

Here is the scale sheet for the headmasters cartoon. But it includes the guys your concerned with.

 

I have YOTH Optimus, MP Prowl, am waiting for the MP's WJ and BB, and a KO SSwipe. One day I will nab a MP T-Cracker or SS.

I'm not gonna lie- my big crit of the cars is that they are nothing more than Voyagers. High priced Voyagers. ANd altho I respect the scale issue, BB is small. I know he comes with the exo-suite... but he's small. I'm just glad I get in on the cheap pre-orders.

 

Anybody thinking of using the new leader class Megaton as their masterpiece sized one? I saw leader Jetfire is the same size as a masterpiece seeker and I feel Megaton will be the same size.

 

No, too different aesthetic, and that's just the bot mode.

He's an awesome toy, and I'm getting both decos, but he'll be really out of place with MPs

 

He'll make a semi-decent substitute, but the aesthetic is kind of off.

 

Generations Warpath scales well if you think about it.

 

I am. Hope he turns out good

 

Me too, I think the aesthetics are close enough, and mp05 is an eyesore in my collection. As long as size is close, he is getting replaced

 

For me as the Dinobots go, I like 10" as FT is doing but 11 inches is my perfect Maximum, there will be a bootleg Grimlock of Mp08x that is called over-sized to be that is a perfect Maximum for all the Dinobots.

I boycott any combiners that are not at least 20 inches tall & I even renounce my name I wish I could change into 20 inch combiner. 20 inches is twice the size MP-10 which is why I like MP-10's size bc now combiners are more likely to happen in MP. My combiner/gestalt Maximum is 22 inches which is perfectly twice the size of my Dinobot max.

OMEGA SUPREME is suppose to be taller than a combiner so at 24 inches it would be great with a 26" perfect maximum.

And the largest of them all. City Transformers (MP Fort Max, Metro, Scorponok & Trypticon) to be a manageable TOY size, I'd take a 36 inch tall robot mode with a 40 inch maximum keeping their both Alt modes between 20-30 inches.

I wish they would tap into the MP-01 scale market so we can get more options in sizes but the 3p's will. I personally am happy with the Masterpiece small cars being only 7" bc they are still beefy proportionally which I like.

 

I like MP cars being scaled to MP10 in alt mode, but I'd have liked that the transformation extends their bot mode a tad so they don't look so small to fight decepticon jets hand to hand.

 

Can anyone tell me how tall a MP Wreck-Gar should stand?

 

See my reply here.

 

After the whole G1 Ark crew from Seasons 1 and 2 have been released, maybe they could do MP Hot Rod & MP Rodimus Prime V2 as separate figures.

 

How big was Scamper compared to the other Autobots in Season 3 of the G1 cartoon?

 

Am I the only one who thinks the Alt mode should be in scale? Not the bot mode. Robots in disquise. Shouldn't the disquise match the vehicles your disguising as? I guess this shouldn't be any different than all the other lines except for Alternators. I wish they still being made, even if they charged more.

I know this is a zombie thread but since it has already been revived, I thought I would add my two cents

 

dude.. it's a toyline for a G1 CARTOON.. not a scale model car line. the robots are what's most important and should be scaled together. plus, so far, everything scales well together when comparing them to the show. i sure as shit wouldn't want a masterpiece bumblebee whose car mode is in real scale with the others.. that doesn't work for me, and that's not how it was in the show, therefor, there's no reason for it.

 

Man you'd run into so many problems if we had things your way. Soundwave , Megatron , blaster , an every single cassette would be smaller then dust .
