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

[From The Uncanny Valley]

transformers doesn't just transform into cars. they also transform into many objects. be it everyday objects we see and use (i.e vending machine, hair dryer, TV, etc). hence why they're called transformers. it's because they transform into things.

Hell, BotBots are a parody of the whole idea

Got some Tarnpics ready now, I really need to either get some kinda photogenic desk or work out a means of turning this craft paper I've been using to badly wall off the storage boxes I've been using as a makeshift photo taking spot into some kinda modular diorama. Keep saying it but I still have yet to get around to DOING it.

It's cool that two previously comic exclusive characters got basically a definitive figure YEARS after they appeared. Despite being from different continuities, although an alternate version of Jhiaxus existed in the IDW comics, I'd like to think these two guys would have fucking ancient greek/roman ass intellectual discussions, possibly before Jhiaxus loses his cool and beats tarn to fucking death, or Tarn kills him by talking enough because that's apparently literally his main power.


What I didn't expect was for Tarn to be as short as he is, not the shortest voyager around but comparing it to the legacy prime and a few others I have that I thought it'd be the same height as, he's just a tiny bit shorter.


Coolest thing about the figure is it can actually pull off natural looking kneeling poses, or poses like this where he's just stepping over incapacitated guys. I'd set a few more up around if I had that diorama setup idea thing actually done but for now you'll have to settle for this image of him crushing Blitzwing's robo-dong with his foot surrounded by exposed corner storage box platform.

Now that I've got Tarn I more or less have all the main legacy figures I was interested in in some form, save for the other variants of laser Optimus I guess and the Deathsaurus I will never be able to afford as it was an expensive ass limited preorder only bundle bullshit deal. The Stunticons I just never saw any other than Dragstrip stocked ever and they've just been scalped online the whole fucking time they've existed without a single discount. They kinda half assed the Stunticons' articulation from the start, and later skimped on engineering after the third figure which sucks. Oh well, the yellow bastard will be my only one of that crew from legacy, already have the combiner wars versions of everybody but him and those are pretty solid figures, albeit not g1 animation color accurate as they aren't the japanese releases.

From what I can tell, it's pretty much a show for little kids in comparison to other TF series, which usually are targeted to older audiences.

I really wish that Sari Sumdac Botcon figure wasn't discarded. I really have a soft spot for her and the techno-organic idea/concept. Was there any 3rd party kits of her? I have the Impossible Toys mini figure.

You're better off making one from a drossel figure.

It has some decent jokes but there's also an ep that's one long climate change allegory

So Nemesis is a female titan. It looks fine but the shoulders will hinder movement I think. The engineer/ designer maybe a bit of a pervert though as she seems to have a vagina.

How concerned should I be that Nightbird is gonna be voice by some trannie nigger?

They won a major reward due to diversity not because of talent so I'm sure you can put two and two together. When I mentioned that months ago I said that I had given up on the movie as I don't support trannies. It's one step to accepting child molesters. I'll get the few figures I'm interested in and that's it. I'm not seeing the movie.

God dammit....and I wanted to hear Peter Cullen too. Nobody gives a shit about the humans or background Cons. I just wanna watch Prime and Primal do robot shit.

Nightbird is the second in command so they'll have a lot of screen time. Sadly Transit will probably see two minutes at most then be torn in half.

I bet they don't even have David Kaye as Beast Megatron.

Has sector 7 been in any major thing other than the first movie

Everything for them seems tied to the first movie. From comics, to video games, even BotBots.

Mattel and Hasbro have entered into a partnership to release Transformers UNO and Hot Wheels.
