Came across this on my internet travels and had to share it here, loved it  

 

Fuck’s sake, Jon. Way to complicate a clear decision.

 

getting a junker original g2 Rotorstorm, hope I can fit its head with the new one. The original head is spot on!

 

Honestly, I'm quite cynically open to hanging fire on him in case it turns out enough folks are put off he might get a bit cheaper to take a wee bit off the outlay overall along with the eventual 3P fix.  

 

Right, that’s Rotorstorm and his lazy headsculpt and Tigertrackatron pre-ordered at Kapow Towers  

I’m quite intrigued as to why the yellow peril hasn’t been offered at ID and is specifically labelled as an Import with Kapow.

Let the conspiracies commence...

IIRC They did seem to quietly emphasise, "first time US release", and not mention anything about following up globally.  

 

Hasbro are particularly poor with their use of language sometimes, especially internationally. I’m not even sure other markets register on their PR radar so when they say “US” do they mean “outside of Japan”?

 

I’m in total agreement. Action figures nowadays are a bit too rubbery for my liking, they’re not really capable of any serious “action”. It’s a bit annoying when the robot that turns into a car can pull off more human poses than a 6-inch figure of a man that can barely put two hands on his rifle.

I’d love a three-and-three-quarter-inch pop culture line of figures based on game, movie, tv and comic characters, all with solid plastic construction. But sadly that doesn’t seem likely.

 

I know I rag on Hasbro, but at least they can manage a half decent headsculpt, Funko on the other hand: Terrifying.

Funko on the left, in-game model on the right, to claify

 

That’s amazing, where did you get Rippersnapper and Hun-Gurrr from? I’m still on the look out for them.

 

 
Good evening all!

Been quiet this week as I am back at work after furlough - Not my choice mind, HR guy said if I don't return I would face a disciplinary hearing! Nice way to retain my job eh!  

 


Talking of idiots at the beach (which I wasn't)? W in T actual F?  

So what have I missed this week?  

Oh! Some reveals! Hmmmm...?

Centurion Droid - Nice!

Rotorstorm - Nice! I think a member on this thread predicted the Spinister mould would be made into a Rotorstorm? Ref: Head sculpt - I wonder if they'll do another one of those 3 packs like Impactor where he gained a different head sculpt?  

Did we get any pics of Ironhide, Prowl or Soundwave if they where announced?

Can't remember the others - BTTF Delorean Autobot?  

What else do I need to know? Anything on a WFC Bumblebee?  

 

Came out worse in the photos I posted. Couldn’t be arsed to redo. Better in hand. Was wondering if someone would mention how in the light it doesn’t look like one colour. I had to do a few double takes to make sure the figure hadn’t been tampered with and replacement components.

The ridges on the door seem to distort the light reflecting/shadows cast and give the impression of different colours. These are better:





When I get the trailer the limb bots will go on the skeleton that the trailer converts to.

Photos only taken by my smartphone.

 

AHAHAHAHAH.

Gawd, I really must stop reading through Twitter. REading today's roundup on people visiting Bournemouth beach I am regaled with stories of people at the beach shitting in burger boxes. How do you even do a shit in full view of a crowded beach? I guess when you gotta go, you GOT TO GO.

SHIT IN A BURGER BOX.

Oh what heady times we live in! I am finding this unbelievably funny. I may have broken something in my head.

Instead of shitting in a burger box I cracked open my Sky Lynx, but unfortunately he had 2 right hand wing joints which meant he doesn't transform properly. I charged back to Smyths before they closed and grabbed another one.

 

Minicon monopoly!


Wasn't there a dead g1 optimus that came from an alternate universe in the dreamwave armada comic? Maybe they used that as inspiration for corpsimus being listed as an alternative universe? Maybe that'll happen in wfc:III and he'll be a unicron herald, to tie in the big guy, and we are getting a unicron scaled optimus in the weapons pack.

Our hoover packed up so looking for a new one. If you youtube henry hoover, the very first video is of someone who has turned him into a remote control flamethrower. Yup.

Yeah, but it's bobby skullface. He's over opinionated on everything and talks out his arse on most things. I see people buying that red megs to use as their definitive classic megs.

 

Punching space Nazis since 2099?

Level up!

 

Headcanon: Crosshairs’ alt mode is a motorised ammunition caisson, transporting guns and ammo in the back, and lifting munitions up like a forklift at the front! Ironhide’s take on the alt mode is modified for increased armour with less focus on cargo, and Ratchet’s version is an ambulance and repair variant.

 

Got them from Taiwan on eBay for £53 (or thereabouts) but used a £10 off when you spend £20 promo to make it only £43 for them  

 

SOOOOOOOOOOU-WEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!

This pig's in a poke 'cause his tiny trotters are curing!
*Undignified Grunting*

 

Thanks mate!

Hmm might have to consider that if they have the promo still. I guess Taiwan is more legit than China.
