So I'm going to critique your critique real quick, not cause it's wrong to have an opinion, but just to kinda help the discourse move on.

I encourage everyone to really focus on using subjective language when writing subjective statements. The crux of the issue here is the statement "Really unnecessary" and "It's getting stupid". Those are subjective statements, but are being stated in a non-subjective way. Simply stating "I'm not a fan of faux parts, so this is really disappointing for me" gets across the exact same idea, but it refocuses the critique onto your personal interaction with it, rather than a statement, presented factually (regardless of intent), about the item itself that really boils down to subjective opinion.

A subjective statement, particularly a negative one, presented with objective language tends to make people feel unnecessarily defensive, and almost always derails conversation.

 

Yesssss

 

Your right i edited my post, i shouldn't have said true fans. A fan is a fan regardless

 

The black repaint of tarantulas has been used as both his Vok enhanced form AND Shattered Glass appearance.

I 3d printed myself a wheel gun for Tarantulas.

 

I really hope hes included with some effect parts for his shoulder mounted missile launchers

 

I guess that other Taranstulas prototype from a year ago was not from Transart.

 

No that was future toys x. I think they probably got spooked by all the leaks and teases transart were showing off including both tarantulas and blackarachnia

 

Hey Takara!! Look! More money flying out the window!!

 

I can't wait.

 

That's the main problem I see with this site, people get angry or defensive too fast, too often.

 

So there are two ways you can interpret the word "unnecessarily" here. The way you did, which is, people can look at those comments and ignore them without feeling the need to defend the thing they like. The other meaning is, the provocative wording is not necessary, and thus there's no need to make them feel defensive in the first place.

I actually think both are true. However, we are all human, and when there is something we like that someone tells us is crap, we will often take that personally, as though it's a commentary on us. In a way, it is though. If something were objectively crap, and we ilke it, that kinda means we have shit taste, no? Luckily, almost nothing is objectively crap, so even while we know someone else is talking subjectively, it still feels like a slight against us. And considering many of us here are adults collecting toys based off of an old children's cartoon, I'm sure many of us have experienced teasing, so some slight over defensiveness might be understandable.

I think it's best to, in general, respect the differences of opinions by a) not getting mad at other people for their opinions but also, b) stating our own opinions using subjective language, so that subjectivity is explicity. It just makes for a more welcoming environment.

 

Show z have him available for pre-order

 

He's looking REALLY nice. I agree I hope they fix those hollow biceps, however, with the dark plastic, it may be completely undetectable.
Looks like he has a bit more articulation than TM2 BA, especially in the wrists, so that's another plus.
I CAN NOT WAIT to see the paint job on this thing. That is one area TransArt seems to slay!

 

here is the link:
[Pre-Order] TransArt BWM-11 TransMetal Tarantula

 

Yeah, doing it like these Mandalorian whistling birds effects from Hot Toys and Figuarts would be great.

I’m sure he unleashes a huge blast like this in Coming of the Fuzors pt II
