(As described in other posts). That looks cool! Looks menacing. Thanks for posting this @David Hingtgen. Really appreciate it since my knowledge with TF is so small. Quote
Tking22 Posted October 17, 2017 Posted October 17, 2017 It happened, after getting him in Saturday evening due to TCP being the absolute BEST in third party retail within the US, I finally got to crack open this massive, absurd beast. Funny enough, even though I collect G1 MP exclusively, I only owned one single G1 toy, Omega Supreme. My older cousin got him from our grandma for his b-day way back in the day and rudely passed on him, you see he just turned 14, so he wasn't in to toys anymore. He got reamed and I got to go home with a beastly, old school Transformers toy. This release was special to me, even if I didn't collect G1 MP I feel I would have gotten it anyway. But I collect G1 MP, so I have literally dozens of other bots to re-arrange in order to fit this monster into my collection. Assembled, not exact, but he's about two feet tall. Quote
Valkyrie Hunter D Posted October 17, 2017 Posted October 17, 2017 Congrats, I'm still debating whether to get one or not. I definitely prefer the way Terminus looks compared to Gabriel. Quote

Congrats on that big-ol box of awesomeness, Pineapple! --------------------- Alright, so got the written review and gallery up for MakeToys MTRM-10 Galaxy Meteor up (video portion still uploading: ) http://kumastyledesigns.com/maketoys-galaxy-meteor-review/ The article goes into depth on what I really liked and things I would have liked to see different but overall it's a well-made and FUN piece that I'd recommend. Here are a few shots from the gallery portion. Much more on site: Quote

mikeszekely Posted October 17, 2017 Posted October 17, 2017 Galaxy Meteor is my stack at TFSource. I'm still stuck in China on business, though, so I won't have my review up for another month. I'm expecting GT's Tyrant, their version of Don Figueroa's stealth bomber Megatron, to drop any day now. He'll ship with Galaxy Meteor. Quote

I definitely prefer the way Terminus looks compared to Gabriel. I would HIGHLY recommend him, he's awesome. This is something Takara will never make themselves too, and FansToys is not always the best about re-releases, so I'd snatch him up while you can still find both parts easily. Quote

Kuma Style Posted October 18, 2017 Posted October 18, 2017 The full review for MakeToys MTRM-11 is up: http://kumastyledesigns.com/maketoys-meteor-review/ The article goes into detail but overall I digit. The cartoon-esque styling and articulation really won me over. Here are some pics from the galla portion. Quote
Mechinyun Posted October 19, 2017 Posted October 19, 2017 Holy smokes Kuma, your pictures do a better job of selling me on purchasing toys than the maker does... you should send them your stuff and if they were smart hire you do product shots. I wanted meteor before, but now man.. hes dopeeeee! Quote

I need to start taking pictures of a crap ton of 3rd that have come since I started the thread. However I really want Omega but I dont know I am getting the DX9 version. Just think its more cartoon accurate Quote

And thank you; I very much so appreciate the compliment. Quote
Kuma Style Posted October 20, 2017 Posted October 20, 2017 Got the full review for Iron Factory's War Giant Attackers (Set A) up. http://kumastyledesigns.com/iron-factory-attackers-a-review/ Article itself goes into detail but overall, I think that this is a solid set. The first q.c. issue free release I remember from them in a bit. No overly tight joints or anything. Well done pieces. Just wish the weapons had better tabbing in their alt. modes. Here are some pics from the gallery portion: Quote

The latest version of the board is both "simple, but un-intuitive"----basically for most all pics and vids, you just paste the normal link, and it'll figure out what you intend, and embed it automatically. There's not really many "do this" buttons to click on etc. Usually works well. When it doesn't---then you're on your own. Quote

I honestly love that feature! Quote
David Hingtgen Posted October 22, 2017 Posted October 22, 2017 I noticed it, I just wanted to help you know how to do it in the future, vs "randomly trying different things hoping it'll work again". Quote
JB0 Posted October 22, 2017 Posted October 22, 2017 Meanwhile, I'm always trying to NOT embed a video despite auto-detection scripts attempting to "help" me waste bandwidth and overburden lower-end systems. Quote

Didn't need the help as, like you'd stated it automatically did it when I pasted the link... it even states on the message box that it automatically embedded link, lol. Regardless, I'd hope that three or four embeds later I'd have picked up by now, haha. ------------------------------------- Anyways, I got a message from X2Toys stating that they wanted to send their upcoming Jetfire headmaster piece for me to check out. I think the interchangeable mini figures are going to be a hit ala Fansproject's Core bots, but we'll see. Hoping the quality is up to snuff. Quote
Kuma Style Posted October 23, 2017 Posted October 23, 2017 Got the full review and gallery for MMC's Kultur Asterisk up: http://kumastyledesigns.com/mmc-kultur-asterisk-review/ Article obviously goes into detail but overall I really dig it. It's my first experience with the Kultur mold in general so it was cool to check it out and see how the reformatted line has progressed, particularly in the transformation aspect; night and day (in a positive way) from what I remember! Here are a few pics from the gallery portion: Quote
