  1. Toyhax/Reprolabels have already made a set for Downbeat. IMHO, it's crappy and I think they may referenced markings from a different Martini livery. It's a good thing Downbeat looks great without any markings. I'm just gonna slap an Autobot sigil or two on him and call it a day.
  2. You even kept the dog leash on the bumper-Nice!
  3. Transistor is great Blaster substitute. Once KFC got rid of that flaky metallic red paint and re-released it with unpainted red plastic, I had to get it. And he will look fantastic with Downbeat.
  4. I'm normally apprehensive about getting 3rd party goods on their 1st run, but for Downbeat I'm gonna take my chances - it just looks too good. Striker Noir looks hot. MT had a winner with Manus so I'll pick Noir up as well.
  5. Downbeat looks real good, and its release date has been bumped up to January! Word on the street is that Toyworld's Constructor will be getting new parts, namely green thighs and more G1 styled Devy head. I think I will finally be buying a Constructor set.
  6. Yeah, not my Arcee either. Maybe if it had boxier angles bot mode would be ok, but that wouldn't fix whatever is happening in alt mode.
  7. Weird rear end or not, I think I'll end up getting Downbeat out of all the 3rd party Jazz toys. Although Toyworld's Blues ended up not looking too bad, dare I say it even has a slightly better looking alt mode. It only makes me wonder what MMC has in store.
  8. Ok, that's reassuring. Assuming all goes well with Downbeat, I don't know how Takara is going to surpass it. Downbeat looks to be the Jazz toy I've been waiting for since the MP line started.
  9. R.I.P. Mr. John Glenn, you had a great run.
  10. You're a cool dad. I don't own any myself, but they look like they can take a beating. I just might get a couple for my barbarians once they get old enough.
  11. AC7 is getting me all sorts of giddy. I just might plunk down the cash for the VR thingy too.
  12. I dunno, just by that image alone, I think it needs more mass in the front; like larger, longer main cannons.
  13. I got Figuarts Leonardo and Donatello at Barnes and Noble, each with a 30% off coupon code (BNBFRIDAY16). Each came down to 36 bucks. Many thanks to MW member kajnrig for passing the word in the Gundam Plamo thread!
  14. The Naked and Famous released a new album last month. This one just goes to show you that having a romantic, tumultuous relationship within your band can result with a great sounding single:
  15. Yeah, Inferno's rear end does look bad. Is it a deal-breaker? Nah. For one, I'm rarely gonna display its back end in alt mode, and the folding ladder gimmick makes up for it IMO. Frankly, I was put off by Backdraft's shortcomings. If X-Transbots' Inferno (was it Dante?) has a similar outcome, I'll be alright with the official version.
  16. There have definitely been some improvements since the last time it was shown. It's probably gonna boil down between this and Apache for me.
  17. What kills MP-36 for me is that huge waist. And in the latest pic of his alt mode, the gun just doesn't look straight; it droops downward.
  18. I've been hunting this Chogokin for a while now. The outer box is real beat up, but I'm crossing my fingers that everything inside is in good shape. Here goes nothing!
