    Takara Transformers

    Yeah, the combined modes looks pretty good. I might get this one, but I'll likely wait for the giftset.

    Takara Transformers

    I typed that post when I thought that spider-man in the video screen-cap was a marvel universe figure. When I watched the video, I realized it was a marvel legends figure. :eek: So. damn. big.

    Lego is somewhere around 1:36-1:40. Megabloks figures are closer to 1:32, IIRC.

    Well, if Megabloks starts making little Seinfeld characters, I'll plunk down the five benjies for this overpriced thing. I love it. But without people it's useless.

    It doesn't even come with little people. Even if they were tiny 0-PoA statues, that would be better than zilch. I don't understand this product. Who is it for, and what will they do with it? I know what I'd LIKE to do with it, but the scale is just all wrong.

    WHY OH WHY couldn't this have been 1:18 or 1:12?! That would have been awesome. It's 1:26 which scales with absolutely nothing. If it weren't $500, I'd probably try to use it with my Megablok COD Joes. https://www.bigbadtoystore.com/Product/VariationDetails/80428

    Takara Transformers

    Good lord I want this. I don't know why or what I'd do with it or where I'd put it... but I want it.... ~28" Eddie, I think this would be in-scale with your Bruderstator. Puts that MAS chump to shame ;) http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/threads/over-oversized-mpp10.1152610/

    Takara Transformers

    Thanks! I think most of the pieces for the MOBAT and WHALE came from various Halo sets that use a nice dark green, largely the UNSC Vulture and Rhino, both of which have a lot of parts. I managed to pick those sets up sub-MSRP. But I never know what parts I'm going to need, as I really make...

    There is a red Call of Duty Atlas trooper that's a nice deep red. What are you planning to make? Atlas Troopers

    Takara Transformers

    As I've chronicled here, I'm not a big fan of the majority of the '85 cast. I like Aerialbots and a few big names like Blaster and Perceptor, but by-and-large, the '85 group are a poor substitute for the Ark crew. Until recently, I've never owned an Omega toy, but I picked up the MFT version...

    I'd love to see Raiders in the theater again.

    Takara Transformers

    I saw it in the theater, but I didn't know squat about it ahead of time. I don't think I knew what unicron was either. I remember, it was the summer between 5th and 6th grade. My mom took me and a buddy to see it. While I liked the movie, I remember being kinda bummed/stunned, partially...

    Takara Transformers

    I picked up RobotHero knocked-up Starscream, and he's great. But I didn't get the other seekers just b/c of space. They're huge! I also got the OS MPF-12 Sideswipe. It's probably my fav of the oversized guys. http://teletraanone.com/index.php/2017/02/09/knocked-up-transformers/

    Takara Transformers

    I've got MPP-10 (sans trailer) and the nekkid Magnus version too. They actually improved the mold from the original. Those are the only WJ figures I have, but they're solid. I'm taking the wife and kids to the film on the 27th, and I think Eddie's going too.

    G.I. Kre-O, Kre-O, MegaBloks CoD and LEGO discussions

    My WM reset a few weeks ago, and it did move Mega to the TF/Marvel isle as opposed to the LEGO section. The number of sets is down, just singles and some of the four-figure packs. The actual sets went on clearance. I agree that Mega is going to have to do something different, otherwise there...

    GI JOE RIPCORD

    Great work, one of my favorite characters too. Bonus points if you do a Candy complete with Bongo bear suit.

    Takara Transformers

    Something in that vein with a real budget would have been great. But then they couldn't make more unrecognizable bug-people.

    Takara Transformers

    While it does nothing to get me excited, I think that's more of a face than most bugformers. It's like they actively hate the idea of making anything resembling a figure's iconic form.

    MTF Sunbow style Cover Girl by HUNMARINE

    The 3-pack is one of the later o-ring figures, circa '06, and the other is a FSS figure from a couple of years ago.

    MTF Sunbow style Cover Girl by HUNMARINE

    Oh, I know. I was just always fond of the earlier blonde version. I didn't like the red/brown short-haired version because the original figure with that deco was such a dog with a giant melon. ;) Arguably the best version is the DDP incarnation that inspired the later figures: But none...
