I'm Afraid to tell you that Magnus you're finding is Actually a Magnus Ginrai

And honestly, I am much happier with that. I am super stoked to actually get that tooling, and maybe an eventual Godbomber!

Magnus Prime can't be bought on his own, only in a BBTS-exclusive boxset which will probably be above 100$. Have fun!

Sea spray looks great if a little boxy
Blitzwing looks good and will get though I have the thrilling 30s one which is nice enough, he had too many design issues
Octane is a good update and always liked the character
Overlord will be a buy too.

Bit disappointed regarding the thunderwing and rodimus heads as I was hoping to see new figures

Trypticon is great and makes one wonder what could have been with fortress if the designers had carte Blanche

Quick switch is meh

Magnus prime is a cool name

I like windblade... I have the original release and she was a bit unstable..

Still hoping for more targetmasters... misfire, slug singer and crosshairs seem to be the ones that could use existing molds relatively easily

Although MAGNUS is GINRAI :lo:
Octane is now named Octone [Trademark r
Overlord can drain your wallet in a pinch

frogbat wrote:Well they wouldn't be able to use ginrai though?
Yeah saw the octone and well erm no hasbro, no. It has musical connotations... tankor would've been better.
There is no wallet left

It's the exact same mold as Wave 3 Optimus with absolutely no changes, so yeah, it has a jet mode. They just didn't show it for... reasons.

Which is a shame, because the deco now means that Optimus turns into a jet that flies past you at extreme speeds while showing a picture of him burning down a forest. If anything could be added to him to make that sticker from the original toy more awesome, it's that

They kinda Redecoed the Super Ginrai with more guns [it's better now] it's going to have an Apex Bomber [Godbomber]
Octone is a pun
Overlord burns the wallet of us Transformers fans

same with Tidal Wave then, coz i take it it'll still have Broadsides jet mode too

On the other hand, Nautica's vehicle mode is really just disappointing. Notably moreso than Brainstorm, it's literally just a purple Blurr with some turbines on the sides. Not to mention the fact that she still has that convertible-canopy thing going on - how is she meant to function as a submarine with a giant gaping hole in the cabin roof?

You can actually close the canopy once you Transform Blurr/Brainstorm problem solved.


So the Submarine thing still works in a way even though I still don't see how this is a submarine looks more like a space ship to me especially with the Turbines.

steals_your_goats wrote:Speed set; Lazer prime is a nice surprise his colors are really cool and makes him distinct from Optimus while being the same character. Quickswitch I think works well enough but some more retooling would've been appreciated. Fastlane looks really cool and I'm honestly quite surprised he's a legends and a new mold. I think Nautica works well enough for what it is. Yes a new mold would've been preferable but I think it still works. Vehicle mode kinda, majorly sucks though.

Strength set; Tidalwave looks pretty cool, wished they used the green color scheme though. Metalhawk is a pleasant surprise. I don't think anyone saw him coming but he looks incredible. Pounce has a nice robot mode but the puma mode is a little dorky. I think the beast mode legs are too thin. Now Magnus prime kinda annoys me. I imported the Takara Ginrai because I thought that Hasbro wasn't going to release it. But instead they did release it and it has potentially more guns and the trailer is painted a beautiful silver.

steals_your_goats wrote:As far as the silver paint on Magnus prime, I actually forgot about the whole Galvatron thing. I kinda feel better about the whole thing now. I know I'll have to sell one of them I just hope it's not Ginrai only because I think it will be difficult to sell him for a decent price.

Sigma Magnus wrote:Okay, so, I pretty much want EVERYTHING below voyager class, and Trypticon. Hoping for deluxe completion for this line, but the box sets might make it difficult.

Also, as for Nautica, the main thing that bugs me about her head is that it doesn't have that shield thing over her face. Surprised nobody has pointed that out. Oh, and no sonic screwdriver wrench?

I guess it's because everything else was so off about it that I didn't even consider it - wasn't exactly expecting it on a Titan Master either. She also doesn't have her antennae

Is this an entirely new design or is it based on something?

So....would the Titan Masters sit in there with face out? I am suddenly very terrified of how that will actually look...

Corsair wrote:My own eclectic want list:

Obviously Trypticon as well as Repugnus, Sea Spray, Metalhawk, Fastlane and Pounce. Is there more information about these giftsets: Siege on Cybertron and Chaos on Velocitron?.

Of the ones we had already seen I want Sky Shadow, Perceptor and Kup.

Kurona wrote:Know what, screw it, I'll weigh in my opinions. Because if there's one thing you wanted to do when you woke up this morning, it's looking at some dumb MTMTE fangirl go on about what she thinks on pieces of plastic constructed for capitalism!

Overlord: Sad about no lips, but FRIGGIN' AWESOME

Windblade: I'm somewhat excited, but something keeps seeming... off about the figure's proportions. Her legs are odd or her (awesome) swords are oversized or her waist is too long... I really think this is one I'll need to wait on a review for.

Twintwist: Looks just as great as Top Spin! ... Rain is wet!

Octane: I love the retooled plane mode parts, it goes such a long way in making it better.

Blitzwing: Looks pretty great, but there's something about him I'm not too sure on that I just can't quite pin down...

Seaspray: Looks cool I suppose

Ramhorn: CUUUUUUTE CUTE CUTE CUTE WANT HIM

Quickswitch: Not very good, really. I mean, it's a Sixshot in different colours so as a toy it's not bad at all, but it's a terrible representation of a character who there isn't much of a reason to care about in the first place. Probably the worst thing here if I'm honest...

Nautica: ... now that the initial hype has turned down, I'm really let down by this figure. Quickswitch might be what I think is the worst here, but Nautica to me is the biggest disappointment and for me on a personal level, it really frustrates me that one of my favourite Transformers characters (she's in the top 5. The rest are modern IDW characters, surprise surprise) got gipped so bad like this. The head is all wrong, the fans look off and are placed very badly, the chest just offsets the whole thing... I've been fine with MTMTE characters on my shelf not actually looking like how they do in MTMTE, but for the most part I'm able to excuse it either because the headsculpt is spot on even if the rest of the body is very much off (Chromedome), it's what the character used to look like in the continuity and it has enough key defining features to work in the slot (Hot Rod), or in general I'm able to excuse it because it's taking hints from more popular versions of the character who I identify as the same character anyway. But Nautica had nothing else to take inspiration from. So everything off about her is nigh-inexcusable to me and I'm just not fond of this figure at all.

Laser Prime: This one surprised me. I friggin' LOVE these colours on this guy! ... well, I say that, but to me they're icing on the cake. What's the cake? Optimus burning down a forest. That's my favourite stupid thing about the original toy and it's just the perfect representation of trying-too-hard-to-be-rad-bodicus-awesome of 90s Transformers. I love me some stupid!

Fastlane: Surprised he's a new mold. And... and he's honestly absolutely adorable. Look at his robot mode proportions; he's just so cuuuuute.

Rodimus Prime: Biiit disappointed it's not an IDW Rodimus head, but hey, looks cool regardless.

Magnus Prime: They're releasing the Takara mold! Awesome! Precedent! SILVER AND GUNS!

Tidal Wave: Bleh. Almost as bad a mold re-use as Quickswitch imo and it's disappointing he doesn't have the green from the original (hasbro version of the) toy to make him more visually appealing.

Metalhawk: Hm. Hmmm. Hmmmmmm. I want to like this guy, but something feels off once again. Maybe it's just how abrupt the colour breakup at the torso is and how the blue and dark gold or whatever doesn't contrast that great side by side like that.

Pounce: Same as Fastlane, but I kind of like that Puma mode! Especially considering the original toy's Puma mode, have you seen that thing? It's amazing.

Thunderwing: This one's an enigma for me. Who are you supposed to use him on? Is it for a potential Sky Shadow custom? In that case why is he the size of a normal Titan Master rather than the Leader thing of making the Titan Master the face and the helmet making up the rest of the head? Why of all things is this the face that's incredibly IDW-based? Gaaaah. I just don't get why he's here! But still, it looks very nice and he's a cool little extra I suppose.

In that comic the front of it kinda looks like Scourge, i'm surprised that they never went with the Scourge mold & retooled that instead
