http://pulse.hasbro.com/en-us/news/article?article=spotlight_nautica On Hasbro Pulse (link above) there are a couple of close-ish photos of upcoming Nautica figure.
I still see some Blurr on her, but it's not enough to kill my interest in this set. I like the description they give her. It's a good summary of Nautica's character, alright.
Well not all toys can have huge amounts of remoulding even when they could use it. Nautica could have done with more remoulding but it's no big deal.
I'm sure the mods don't need the assistance. As for the figure, I'm finding absolutely no interest in it. I really enjoy the Blurr mold, but with not reading the comics and having no real connection to the character, it doesn't really do anything for me.
They usually only check news and rumors discussion,so I put it there.I'd get it if I could find it single.
Better way of flagging potential news to us newsies is here dude: Create Thread | TFW2005 - The 2005 Boards Re. this one, my personal take when I looked at it before was we weren't seeing much we didn't see at Toy Fair. No real new insight in my humble opinion.
Thanks to these close ups I'm starting to warm up to her head mold even if it's obviously not 100% comic-accurate. The lack of a wrench accessory is still disappointing, especially since that bio mentioned her aptitude as a mechanic. I guess I'll give her one of Wheeljack's.
I think Nautica looks great and I can't wait to get her. I don't have Blurr so the mold reuse doesn't bother me at all.
So those thrusters are removable? Now to get my hands on 2 sets so I can make Broadside a heli-carrier.
It'll be interesting to see what the Shapeways bunch comes up with for Nautica mods. I had an idea for a chest piece that plugs into the Titanmaster cabin for robot mode, providing chest/torso details visible behind the windscreen.
I really want that Nautica, but I don't want anything else in the set besides the clone...ah, well, I suppose it's money saved.
Do you happen to have Generations/Legends Skids? I'm curious to see if there's a significant height difference. I think Skids is kinda short for a deluxe, and it's more apparent next to a TR deluxe. (Incoming pun) He's about a head shorter than them, or than Skullcruncher at least.
