The Transformers Thread (licensed) Next
Alex GS replied to mikeszekely's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
"stepping straight out of the cartoon" , yeah that's also one of the things that keeps me scratching my head , if Takara went that way why they added such a complicated transformation and stayed away from the cartoon / anime transformation?, Optimus Prime in the anime, the G1 toy and the MP 10 toy all have this iconic transformation part, is were the truck mode head lights fold out and this happens to be their arms, also the whole leg parts folds down like the anime, I'm a big fan of Optimus Prime and the transformation is an iconic one and so removing this doesn't make any sense if they are trying to go anime accurate, I'm really trying to get to like this new version but man the more I see it the more I see is a big screw up from Takara, for example also that big gap between convoy and the trailer definitely not a looker, not to mention that huge backpack in robot mode. Megatron MP 36 has a complicated transformation but here I think is justify, cause if you look at it the Robot is effing stunning and yet it can transform to damn awesome looking gun mode, so yeah here compromises had to be done in order to get both visually stunning modes, but for Optimus prime ?, Takara just went over-engineering in my opinion, I mean just look at this: I mean come on just look at this comparison: picture is from review video : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UTAbK00jG6A Definitely the cost went higher caused that over-engineered transformation caused for detail it definitely wasn't.

Man after seeing the MP 44 Optimus Prime not sure what Takara was thinking, MP 10 at least aimed for a anime accurate transformation even from the G1 toy, but for the MP 44 it seems like it got a Michael Bay transformation. -

One of my childhood dream figures that I wasn't able to completed finally have it!!! , this is something to behold! so damn happy!
-
I was waiting for this one and I was willing to even pay the cost similar of the Arcadia Ivanov but this one is a ridiculous price imo, I guess is a no for me .
-
I agree with that, that's the main premise imo for Voltron , still the other looks great too but to have the option and be able to combine and have a result the way GX 71 looks is just unmatched and anime accurate of course.

ok I take that back now hehe, I feel relieved now, thanks @no3Ljm for the correction
-
^^^what the? Chuck was really that small?, I thought it was the bigger anime character in Delta
-
I wonder how Arcadia make their decisions in what to make next, is great to see another Valk no doubt but I think a YF 21 from Arcadia would it be the most reasonable choice in my opinion, hehe at this point I think Bandai is more close doing that than Arcadia.

imminent payment request from AmiAmi
-
Was the Eva box heavily damage? , I was planning to get some stuff from them but will think twice now before anything, and also congrats on your Eva 01 is indeed a superb figure.
-
Type F imo is way more appealing and looks way more striking, Astraea looks like a down-toned Exia the Exia repair III. I would really love to get a Type F but man is already getting ridiculous prices And talking about Exia III I found this, : This option set I think it looks great

yeahhhhh and perfect timing for me , is until January 2020
