eugimon Posted March 17, 2013 Posted March 17, 2013 looks like limb swapping is possible since the legs just have the cars attaching to a skeleton rather than transforming in any way. Quote
anime52k8 Posted March 17, 2013 Posted March 17, 2013 FP finally came down form their pedestal to show something to us mere mortals? We must consider ourselves blessed. And TFC better have the most unique and kickass Predaking to show up so late to the party. Rumors now say that it is bigger than Uranos and with "extras". Now I wonder if the designer of the first two planes of Uranos was moved to the predaking after doing them and BB and the crappy other two planes are the work of an intern Wait, what is this about a TFC Predaking?

I think If I liked predaking enough to buy a crazy expensive giant version of him, I'd stick with mastermind creations. Edited March 17, 2013 by anime52k8 Quote
eugimon Posted March 17, 2013 Posted March 17, 2013 (edited) they scream seacons to me. that's what rumble frenzy said someone in the know told him on facebook. That post got deleted a short time after. edit: personally, I'm hoping for a new dinobot combiner. The one with the wings at the end looks like it could have pterosaur wings.

anime52k8 Posted March 19, 2013 Posted March 19, 2013 I'm not gonna lie. The Thundercracker has a nice blue and the Coneheads look quite cool. (that said the head sculpt is pretty dire on all of them.) Quote

Man did I HATE the old toys. I had KO's of both as a kid and every time I touched them I got reaaaaaaly pissed at how simple the transformation was. "How can this be a transformer if you just move the legs a bit!!!!!" And yes, I would also hail Megatron in that situation! Quote

Hikuro Posted March 22, 2013 Posted March 22, 2013 The crue were REALLY nice, I really enjoyed how well MechIdeas did their first figure release, no problems at all. Joints were not to tight not to loose, paint apps were sharp, attention to detail in articulation and transformation was perfect. Quote
Hikuro Posted March 24, 2013 Posted March 24, 2013 Just got my T-Bone yesterday and played with him a bit. I love the color scheme and how he's just enough of a retool from Car Crash to be almost entirely different. Issues that I do have are few 1) There's a gaping on both driver and passanger side between the fender and door panels looking to the hood. It's about a millimeter thick of a gap on both ends. Even trying to press everything in tighter did nothing.2) His legs are stiffer! This makes it very very difficult for me to swing his upper legs into his lower legs during transformation. They practically pop out of his hip ball joint when I put enough force into it. That's rather disappointing, but manageable. Now let's get the other 3 going dammit! Quote
Chewie Posted March 24, 2013 Posted March 24, 2013 Hikuro, how are they in limb mode? Are they superficial like in the pictures? Mind taking a few pictures? Quote
Hikuro Posted March 24, 2013 Posted March 24, 2013 Hikuro, how are they in limb mode? Are they superficial like in the pictures? Mind taking a few pictures? They don't come with ANY accessories to put them in a limb mode. All that stuff is rumored to come with the Not Motor master figure. Contents are 1 gun, instructions for base transformation from robot to vehicle and back, and a collector card with bio. I know i've said it before, and many agree, these figures will do a scramble city switcharoo and can most likely go from leg to arm at your discretion. Quote

GU-11 Posted March 25, 2013 Posted March 25, 2013 lol, the comment about the bird being in the perfect position. Can't wait for the flood of joke pics once collectors get a hold of the toys. Quote
Hikuro Posted March 25, 2013 Posted March 25, 2013 yeaaaaaaaah I think that's something I'm going to take a major pass on. Quote
David Hingtgen Posted March 25, 2013 Posted March 25, 2013 Makes me wonder who'll do MP Ratbat first---Takara or 3P? Quote
Smut Peddler Posted March 25, 2013 Posted March 25, 2013 3rd party beatbox and sqawktalk? WAT? http://www.tfw2005.com/transformers-news/3rd-party-unlicensed-41/cst-03-cts-04-boxbomber-unofficial-beastbox-squawktalk-cassettes-177124/ I saw those, are they in scale with mp cassettes ? I didnt look too closely. Quote
anime52k8 Posted March 25, 2013 Posted March 25, 2013 Makes me wonder who'll do MP Ratbat first---Takara or 3P? MP Ratbat will probebly be exlusive with MP soundblaster. I saw those, are they in scale with mp cassettes ? I didnt look too closely. They're supposed to be standard Micro-cassette size so they're in scale with Masterpiece and G1 cassettes. Quote
David Hingtgen Posted March 25, 2013 Posted March 25, 2013 They're supposed to be standard Micro-cassette size so they're in scale with Masterpiece and G1 cassettes.Surely this has been reported on/tried but I can't find it online---just how close is a G1 cassette to a real micro-cassette, size-wise? Been a while since I've seen a real micro-cassette, but I think they're more "square" than a G1 cassette. Quote

Been a while since I've seen a real micro-cassette, but I think they're more "square" than a G1 cassette. they're basically the same size. I used actual micro cassettes in my MP Soundwave to try out the multi-tape gimmick. Edited March 25, 2013 by anime52k8 Quote
eugimon Posted March 26, 2013 Posted March 26, 2013 got T-Bone and Crash. Nice figures, but holy gods are they small. Quote
David Hingtgen Posted March 31, 2013 Posted March 31, 2013 A couple of my own pics: Gestalt size comparison. Same pose, different figures. Quote

slaginpit Posted April 3, 2013 Author Posted April 3, 2013 (edited) For all the crap that TFC Not Silverbolt gets When I have him in had he is not that bad, I think if priced a little less it would be more appealing Edited April 3, 2013 by slaginpit Quote
slaginpit Posted April 4, 2013 Author Posted April 4, 2013 I think Superion will fit in nicely with both my versions of Devastator, and the upcoming predaking. I got my crash figure its so small I doubt it will be monstrous which makes me a little disappointed Quote

Arthurius Posted April 5, 2013 Posted April 5, 2013 If they make this Arcee (still not approved), I will be buying it for sure!!! Quote
