Transformers general thread - Toy Robot men based on giant robots based on previously mentioned toys about said robots

You guys see that new DNA kit for SS86 Optimus to turn him into Skybound Optimus?

Get it if you want it, that thing is gonna be scalped to hell and back.

I've been catching up on Skybounds run on the Transformers. It's absolute cinema.

If killing Bee gets us this kino buffet, I'll be the first to offer him as sacrifice. I say that knowing who my PFP is. I love that little shit but he's going to be a blood offering for more of this in the comics.

I hate how the movies and shows like prime (before he backstabs megs) treat him like a retarded dog. G1 and animated did him the best IMO.

Can the fusion cannon even attach to the arm like how it usually does?

From what I can tell, you attach the faction canon to these little holes on the side of the arm
Here's a picture to show you what I mean

Still better then his depiction in One.

It’s integrated into the transformation,

This thing is so cool and cheaper than the inevitable convention exclusive Hasbro version.

I guess I like most Bee's, but I see where you're coming from. Unfortunately he attracts women whose maternal instincts are out of whack. Goddammit I just called myself out

Are we ever getting new TF videogames or are they going the movie route too? Hasbro can't help themselves with telling and not doing. Like a cooperation version of Boogie2988

Supposedly Hasbro partnered with the Space Marine 2 devs so something might be happening.

I personally think they should use a resource that is unfortunately not gonna be around forever, get Peter and do Transformers Mass Effect with Optimus, where the different dialogue options are just based on the different versions.

Good (Paragon) path is Sunbow

Neutral is Skybound/Marvel

“Evil” (Renegade) is Movie/IDW 1

Hasbro’s last RPG project was a game of the year candidate, they’re idiots not bringing the TFs to as many genres as possible.

G1 Bumblebee was great. I kind of took him for granted a bit, but he made a great sidekick to Optimus and the gang. He was courageous and made smart decisions. You really appreciate him after he was all but replaced by Wheelie and his antics.

But what I wanna know is why there hasn't been some kind of doom engine style TF game? Fanmade or official.

most of the gimmick of the IP is seeing the robots do stuff, especially transforming
First-Person would mean you'd see an arm or windshield wipers

changing bumblebee to a sports car was a mistake.
not only does it make it try hard, but it makes him overlap with sunstreaker.

Wasn't sports car Bumblebee originally going to be Hot Shot? I think the character has been extremely oversaturated for almost two decades, but some great toys have resulted like Concept Camaro Bumblebee and all the Legends stuff. I personally hope Mirage has a great career while Bumblebee becomes side support.
 
Somehow found SS Sentinel Prime, B-127, and Scrapper all way earlier than I expected. I've only opened Sentinel so far and he's pretty great. The official pictures did not do his paint a service. In hand, his colors are much more screen accurate. Jet mode suffers from the usual "robot underneath a plane" kibble but it does pretty well at hiding it. I love that this figure includes his battle mode from the movie as well, popping out no less than 12 extra blasters and changing his silhouette quite a bit. Then everything just cleanly folds away for his normal robot mode. Certainly the definitive TFONE Sentinel toy, even though there weren't many options.

Hopefully one of the future TFOne figures will come with his sword.
