Isn't there a quote of him saying that TFOne was somehow connected to the Bayverse or am I misremembering

minor grove
#

yea there is

#

and yea he said it

cobalt adder
#

lmao

minor grove
#

but the TF one directors had to come out really quickly to say "nah ah fam this movie is a brand new incarnation of the TF myth"

#

cuz imagine if this version of orion and d-16 were the same as the bayverse ones

#

💀

cobalt adder

#

my goat

#

he would've made sure unicron was 6 feet underground

minor grove
#

not my optimus prime personally

hazy plover
hazy plover
#

honestly despite ROTB been a whole mess of a movie and also a very in the "middle rank" of Transformers movies
I still loved and accept its flaws

#

idk I think with me it kinda turned into a comfort movie of sorts, cuz it was my proper and much more serious re-introduction to the franchise after like, what, 5-6 years of nothing???

#

Yeah Mirage is an annoying prick whos role would been better for Bee
Scourge is totally wasted in the movie as a villain, same for the other terrorcons
But god dammit I still love them both with passion

cobalt adder
#

I like the character designs in it tho

minor grove
#

being honest i used to love it but after revisit it i couldnt help but feeling more and more dissapointed and that discomfort kept growing ;;

#

its by no means a bayverse movie where the discomfort is off hte roof

#

but it still made me sad u-u

cobalt adder
#

the mirage armor will never stop confusing me

hazy plover
#

honestly I just headcanon that Mirage is a shapeshifter descendant from Amalgamous Prime

#

at least as a way to explain how he can do pull out this kind of tricks

cobalt adder
#

My main question is: Can other Transformers in ROTB do this or is this exclusive to Mirage?

hazy plover
#

doubt so, only Mirage has been proven to doing that

#

Plus, it would be a slight broken if the entire Autobot team was also pure with shapeshifter powers

#

So no, only Mirage

cobalt adder
#

thank god

#

Like it'd be neat to see those designs but yeah that'd be fucking busted

hazy plover
#

This 2 are canonically descendants of Amalgamous btw

cobalt adder
#

ye

minor grove
cobalt adder
#

TRUE

cobalt adder
#

I'd say that's accurate all things considered /j

#

especially the transformation itself

minor grove
#

ye

#

wait since were at it

#

i did a quick tierlist

cobalt adder
#

yeah that's fair

minor grove
#

the more times i rewatched every bayverse movie post 2007 the more uncomfortable i got

#

minus aoe and tlk, those two doesnt deserver a rewatch

#

still vividly remember that dark of the moon almost put 15yo me to sleep

#

not a good sign

cobalt adder
#

I still love the first bayverse movie, I've never seen any of the other ones in full but yeah I don't think I'm missing too much, though I have seen clips from revenge of the fallen to last knight

minor grove
#

the 1st bayverse movie genuinelly gets some points cuz it did gave me hype at the time

cobalt adder
#

Oh it still does imo

#

that opening scene with Blackout slaps

#

it goes so hard

Again I haven't seen Dark of the Moon but I've heard equal amounts of good and bad things about it

#

also the fnuuy sentinel prime thing

minor grove
# hazy plover Well now thats what I call a hottake huh

like i said the film put me to sleep, the humans were so irritating to watch, a lot of them were cringe to hear and are based of bad stereotypes, and the fact that sentinel murdered one of my favourite autobots in cold blood also took points of it

#

also the movie absolutely wasted both soundwave AND shockwave at the same time, HOW

hazy plover
#

watch this video

minor grove
#

-45 MINUTES thefear

hazy plover
#

FOR A GOOD REASON

swift depot
#

"Never is here."

unique sail
#

i watched rise of the beasts in theaters

i just wasn't feeling it man

minor grove
#

Thats how it felt to me as well

swift depot
#

TBH, it's a moive that just ages poorer with time.

unique sail
#

at least it's not age of extinction!

hazy plover
#

so damn true

minor grove
#

somehow EVERY human is even more unbearable to watch

#

and optimus got downgraded to "I'LL KILL YOU!"

#

easily one of my least favourite optimus primes EVER

#

alongside the siege one

unique sail
#

glory to xi jinping

swift depot
#

I will say

#

Optimus getting pissed at learning that Ratchet was murdered was felt.

wispy drift
#

Hello transformerheads im here to ask a question
As a non fan who only just watched tf one, is cyberverse worth watching now or should i hold off and watch smth else first

#

L already gave me some recommendations before (prime, animated and beast wars) is it worth watching before these tho

minor grove
#

well cybervrese is kinda a chill one all things considered

grave lark
#

probably not to be watched before those but I think it's worth a watch at some point! I think it's pretty cute with a lot of fun characters returning and some good moments but it's definitely got the feeling of a show for little kids, especially the first season

#

I think it's better to watch after you've got some more transformers media under your belt and then you can point at the screen whenever a funny guy you know shows up

minor grove
#

yeeea theres a lot of kid humor

grave lark
#

(me with sky byte)

wispy drift
#

Fair enough

#

I asked because i saw some quintesson stuff that looked cool

grave lark
#

yeah that's season 3 I think

wispy drift
#

I see

#

Well thanks for answering you two

#

👍

grave lark
#

🫡

#

hope you have fun watching

#

also lmao I was on the notes page for cyberverse literally yesterday and I can't believe they wanted to put lightbright in somehow. lightbright my beloved

minor grove
#

cyberverse gave us clobber

grave lark

TRUE

I hope I get a second optic o)

hazy plover
swift depot
#

Cyberverse's first season is kind of a mixed bag for me

#

But the later seasons are definitely pretty nice

#

Creation and destruction. All within his grasp

hazy plover
#

Third party accessories???

swift depot
#

Yeah.

#

They came with APC Toys' Optimus and Bulkhead

plush plaza

I would love to play these.

minor grove

oh how i wish this ends up being real

#

if they make ACTUAL live servers for WfC/FoC that would be peak

An ACTUAL official wreck gar spottedon the wild in a shop

Yeah, it's POTP Wreck Gar

Pirates assembled, kinda

drowsy glacier

#

some of the new core class got to the stores of my country

#

Aint no way they're asking $60.000 for core class ironhide 💀

swift depot
hazy plover
#

Still mad they didnt gave ONE Megs his triple energon cannon

#

Given the way it forms the tank barrel, I don't think it would have worked

A lot of stock photos came up for the next line and upcoming collab (won't be posting all the ones for next line, just the one I'm most excited for)

wispy drift
#

That optimus design is fire actually

left osprey
#

I mean it's already a peak design so I hope they wouldn't fuck it up

hazy plover
#

||Btw its confirmed his the new Titan class||

left osprey
hazy plover
#

||The Megatronus side box art had a render of Star over the 13th Sigil||

left osprey
#

||damn, didn't catch that||

hazy plover
#

OH WAIT WAIT
||Nvm I was wrong its Power master prime, not Convoy oops||

#

||Power Master is the 13th||

left osprey
#

||well that makes it even weirder||

#

||why power master?
Star convoy would of made more sense||

hazy plover
#

||While Powermaster is more of a super armor gimmick like Armada Prime, which makes me guess his gonna be Commander class||

left osprey
#

||no I mean in the way of power master Optimus being the 13th prime
Like the primes have no size consisty so a titan star convoy wouldn't feel to out of place
Plus star convoy being the 13th prime makes for a fun wrap around with Prime's final form being one of the first||

hazy plover
#

Ooooh right

#

||Ok now that you say it I see the vision||

#

Also btw
here are leaked art of ||Solus and Prima||

#

Along side the ||confirmation of Superion been this lines combiner||

left osprey
#

||also grimlock and waspinator are in the line||

hazy plover
#

In love that ||Primas star saber is lore accurate with the detachable Matrix||

#

||But good lord why did they went with the G1 Helmet||

minor grove
#

||hmm... the sonic one kinda feels like a bootleg...||

left osprey
#

For which one?

hazy plover
#

AND WTF ||STAR CONVOY IS ACTUALLY THE 13TH PRIME HUH????||

left osprey
#

||I fuckin knew something was going on||

#

||also he looks so good fuuuuuck I want it||

hazy plover
#

then whyyyyyyyy ||is PowerMaster prime doing at the Primes box art WITH the 13th Sigil???||

left osprey
#

||probably miscommunication||

hazy plover
#

Also ||hell yeah they have mini Hot rod with Convoy||

#

||Dude Star Convoy looks so good, I might have to change my Titans pick from Metroplex to him for my shopping list||

left osprey
#

||all they need to do is big convoy and my life will be complete||

#

||also I hope we get, some form of animation for the line
I would love to see star convoy, moving||

hazy plover
#

||Box isnt clear very but I can see Alchemist prime there||

#

||Along side Prima and Megatronus||

hazy plover

MORE REVEALS WTF

left osprey
hazy plover
#

||LETS FUCKING GO AMALGAMOUS MY BOY WILL BE 4 ARMED YEEEEEEEEEEES||

#

omg im so ready for this new line

left osprey
#

||age of primes has ended?
Nah age of primes are STARTING||

hazy plover
#

||We won so fucking hard, Alpha Trion actually has his Quill and the Covenant in his figure||

#

||Vector primes seems to be the same mold from Legacy, wonder its gonna be a repaint or a reissue of the same||

#

||Also Nexus is a big boy, but I cant quite figure if his a combiner or just big||

#

||Star Convoy/13th is the smallest Titan to exist currently||

hazy plover
#

Funny cuz Commander classes are the same size as todays Combiners

#

Lets say ||Star Convoy|| is more like, a Jetfire and a half tall

#

not two Jetfires top like most Titans before him

Holy fuck

Alright they have officially reveal the sonic figures

#

Oh my fucking God this figure keeps becoming even more peak

hazy plover
#

SHIT I might have to put on hold my Decepticon shopping list

#

and prioritize all my money on HIM

#

HIS TOO GOOD FOR ME TO SKIP HELP

left osprey
#

"oh hey star convoy is getting a new figure"
"Oh it's titan class"
"He's one of the 13 primes now"
"He comes with a mini hot rod"
"Also he has the fuckin zodiac"

hazy plover
#

"And also a whole bunch of gun effects"

#

"AND HIS NOT 200 DOLLARS"

left osprey
#

They went fuckin insane with this my god

hazy plover
#

Haslab is looking like a damn scam compared to this wtf

left osprey
#

Only thing that would make this better is if they do some sort of short series for this new line, and having it be good
But I would love to see star convoy, moving

left osprey
#

So, when's the Megatron equivalent hasbro

hazy plover
left osprey
#

At the very least
I will be buying star convoy and megatronus

hazy plover

for I could be Star Convoy and Prima

#

already paying for a Titan + a leader class is waaay too up in my prize tag

His the same size as most commanders, while been an inch smaller to modern combiners

Yet not surpassing Siege Jetfire lol

More than confusion is on curiosity in how they will pull him off

All my prayers that he turns into the new Six Shot

horrible plastic textures

#

emotionless models for anime characters

and an awful story where basically "your oc saves the world"

i am not kidding you have to make your own avatar with a wide selection of powers and costumes from the animes available in the game

so you cna make your oc who has a kamekameha, kyubi's powers and ichigo's sword

you're making it sound like the greatest game of all time

Chat i peeped some g1 designs and im ngl i thought most of them looked kinda ugly

minor grove
#

the og toys from 84?

hazy plover
wispy drift
#

Bad designed i think

wispy drift
# minor grove the og toys from 84?

I guess so? I dont really think of the toys when talking about transformers, i think of the shows and such despite the toys being the main thing lmao

#

But like for instance i saw g1 bumblebee and damn
Like you might disagree, thats fine, but he looked so ugly back in the day 💔 i think they did him way better in the later years

#

I think the one g1 design i saw that i did like was shockwave

#

The perfect specimen

hazy plover
#

Shockwave so perfectly designed, that even people agrees that his Bayverse design is awesome despite the massive redesign

#

So yeah I agree Shockwave has the best g1 design

wispy drift
#

There was like. A reboot apparently? With bumblebee with more accurate designs i think those are cool

hazy plover
#

Not counting TfOne, thats its own thing

wispy drift
#

Yeah so i hear

#

One has my favorite sentinel design out of the ones i saw (those being bayverse, g1 and animated)

hazy plover
wispy drift
#

The main cast's designs look pretty good too

hazy plover
hazy plover
#

Both

#

The cloak gives him extra aura

#

Also Bay Starscream gets a pass cuz his dorito shaped body is funny

wispy drift
#

The cloak looks cool tho

#

Any design looks cooler with a cloak like that

hazy plover
#

Actually agree with that

#

Hey atleast Bay Shockwave keeps his iconic cyclops eye and cannon, compared to how they designes Soundwave

wispy drift
#

My personal favorite megatron design might either be prime or animated's

wispy drift
#

Ah yes. The average bayverse decepticon design i see

hazy plover
#

Their Soundwave looks more like a generic Decepticon troop than actually Soundwave

#

No blue or even visors

wispy drift
#

The one thing that might make you go "thats soundwave" are those speakers in his arms

#

Not enough to stand out though

hazy plover
#

And Lazerbeak

#

No ones beating this design I fear

wispy drift
#

If only he was purple...

hazy plover
#

True...

#

Funny cuz his toy actually has the Purple

#

Just a really dark metallic purple

#

Only designs to come close on beating it as Prime and Bumblebee

wispy drift
#

Bayverse bee looks decent

#

Ig thats something

hazy plover
#

Wdyt of the Autobots designs in the movie

unique sail
#

peak tf designs are bayverse, animated, and late jg1

wispy drift
#

Mostly kinda ugly too but at least more recognizeable than the decepticons

swift depot
#

I love most of the early Bay designs

#

Especially the cons

wispy drift
#

Ok i wont be too mean to him

#

But i dont like him very much im sorry

unique sail
#

look

#

it's better than literally any cyberverse design

hazy plover
#

Oh thats true

#

Cyberverse literally has all the same body proportions and heighs

minor grove
#

i did liked cyberverse bee

#

as an homage to different incarnations of the character

#

...wish th rest of the bots and cons had that tho

#

personally, the worst kind of designs that came out of transformers......is definetely the bayverse ones. They're too visually messy, too many jaggedy shapes and half the time in the case of a decepticon you can't even recognize who is who bcuz michael bay loved to make all the cons grey or sand coloured

#

with a few counted exceptions

#

soundwave could've been blue but apparently they had to make it grety bcuz the car license said "nuh uh i want my prestigious car to be grey"

minor grove
#

and look, i did grew with the bayverse films but the more i rewatched them the more uncomfortable i got with them

unique sail
#

by now i can recognize every decepticon through sheer will

cobalt adder
#

I've wanted Legacy Blitzwing for a while now but I've heard conflicting opinions about him and his alt modes, (mainly his Jet mode, ngl I would've hated it too if it weren't for the flight stand fanmode lol) but would you say that it's worth it overall?

calm mirage

You know when shit starts getting intense in the Bayverse movies when the soundtrack hits you with the:

minor grove
#

HES SO SMALL YOUR HONOR

#

He has arrived at last

#

The smallest transformer outside of my minicons

hazy plover
#

Damn he almost looks Core Class sized

minor grove
#

sizes nowadays are wack

#

definetely smaller than any of my deluxe class bots

#

starscream is a fucking goliath next to him

#

i love him regardless hes so small 🥺

minor grove
#

This transformation is on some masterpiece shit, didnt expected him to be this complicated. But at the very least it doesnt use partsforming like the earthrise one

#

Bayverse bee remains as the biggest of the newly formed hive

#

It feels correct seeing him next to prime

It got delayed to tonight but it did finally arrive! I haven't transformed it or applied the upgrade kit parts to it yet but from what I've used of it so far I think it's incredible

#

It came with all the accessories except the Energon hand things but I really didn't care for them from looking at reviews so idrc about not having them. The listing was at a pretty good discount because of that so the figure itself + the upgrade kit in total was about $45

#

The sword was slightly bent though but I've heard that's a pretty common issue

swift depot
#

That's honestly a great value

cobalt adder
#

Just finished setting up the Tank Mode (with the upgrade kit) and god some of the joints on my copy were so tight lol

#

To install the tank upgrade kit it's basically the same as you would normally transform the tank but skip the step where you fold the tank cockpit out since the kit is made to fit around Blitzwing's head

cobalt adder
#

I don't have a Kup figure so I can't do the fnuuy shot from Transformers: The Movie sadly

cobalt adder
#

Jet (Flight-stand) Mode

#

I'm not going to lie, if this figure couldn't do this and it could only transform into the stock Jet mode I probably wouldn't have bought it, this flight-stand fan-mode absolutely saves it imo

#

If you're thinking about getting this figure please transform the jet like this lol it's so much better

#

You can adjust the angle of it by tilting the swords on the side, I also found that it's able to stand with just one sword connected so that's neat

#

To get it into Flight-stand mode you wanna transform it how you would normally for the jet, but instead of clicking the kibble in, you want to leave it hanging out in the robot mode backpack configuration then plug the swords into the sides of the shoulders. These are needed to keep the jet up in this mode because otherwise it'll just flop over

#

If you don't have the sword accessories you can just prop it up with something else lol

cobalt adder
#

Overall I absolutely love this figure! Granted I bought it both with the knowledge of both the flight-stand fan-mode existing and the tank upgrade kit, but even without the kit I'd still highly recommend it. While I personally don't care for the tank mode's cockpit (or the excuse that it's "cartoon accurate" but that's a whole other thing lol) I know others who don't mind it. Apart from that I love the tank mode, especially how the tank turret moves. I'm aware that most blast effects don't work on it (aside from MPM Blackout apparently?) I personally don't own any blast effects anyways so it's not an issue for me personally, besides you can find a 3D-printable adapter for the tank barrel to make it support them. That stock jet mode is hard to defend though. The tank kibble/backpack from robot mode just sits at the bottom of the jet and it looks like its built like a burger lmao, again if the jet mode couldn't mistransform into a built-in flight-stand I don't think I would've bought it, even with the tank upgrade kit. But the robot mode is incredible and I absolutely love the look of it, the shoulders are a bit of a pain to work with but thanks to the transformation hinge for jet mode you can finagle it to get more posability out of it, so there's that at least.

TL;DR I think this figure is well worth it if you're willing to look past the tank mode cockpit/buy the upgrade kit for it and mistransform the jet mode to the flight-stand mode. The robot mode is incredible though and absolutely love the look of it, along with how the figure looks in general. This figure has it's issues but I think it's well worth it if you can find it for ~$45

One idea I have is for Ironhide for example to lean more towards his movie iteration than G1 for various reasons.

  1. Because I wanna "declone" separate characters that share almost the exact same design (like Ratchet & Ironhide or Bumblebee & Cliffjumper)
  2. I think him being loaded with weapons and turning into a large truck fits with his open & loud hatred towards Decepticons
cobalt adder
cobalt adder
#

also because I like rambling about the ideas I have

#

Because apart from my design philosophy I have no other plans for these designs besides making them

#

So then if I just stop making these then it'll feel less bad since I wasn't building towards something anyways

#

its for funsies

#

I've really liked seeing your ideas !!

cobalt adder
#

thankss kirbyDoodle

cobalt adder
# cobalt adder One idea I have is for Ironhide for example to lean more towards his movie itera...

Speaking of Ratchet: I mentioned back when I made my Shockwave redesign that I wanted him to be the Decepticon counterpart to Ratchet. For Ratchet himself I picture him being a very friendly and intelligent bot while also being a lot thinner/weaker than a majority of the Autobots. Though he comes in clutch by being able to use the roof of his Alt Mode as both a shield and a portable medkit (based off the jank of his G1 toy lmao but I think it's fun that he can do that)

#

Also while I lean more towards toy accuracy than cartoon accuracy since I'm redesigning G1 characters atm, Ratchet is not going to look like that lmao

#

Neither is Ironhide tbc

#

Another thing I wanna bring up is the idea of making 'partsforming' an in-universe Cybertronian technology. I don't want to use as an excuse to have every single character "transform" by being taken apart like Lego KREO, so this idea is mainly for accessories like weaponry or armor (Ultra Magnus lol.) Essentially it'd work similar to the Mark 42 armor from MCU Iron Man where the user is able to remotely send the pieces to them and can choose which configuration they should be sent. For example with Ultra Magnus's armor-

#

He can choose to have it either send as his robot mode armor, his alt mode's car carrier, or a weaponry configuration that puts all the power of his suit into a hammer.

#

This would also allow for the G1 Optimus thing where his trailer just spawns in and spawns out whenever he goes into truck mode but actually in-universe

#

because funny

swift depot
#

At first when I saw Powerglide wasn't a jet in Animated, that had me confused back then.

Then I realized no Autobots fly besides Jetfire and Jetstorm, and they were a recent development.

I have a transformers video playing in the background while I'm working on something unrelated and that gave me the random thought of 'What if Wasp was just Bumblebee after being taken in and corrupted into working for the Decepticons' and dammit that's actually a fun idea-

#

Oh yeah, another idea/concept I’ve been thinking of is how Triple Changers/Bots with multiple alt modes work.
In summary, they have modified transformation cogs that support storing data for multiple alt modes rather than just one, but they’re limited by the amount of space that they can fit that data into. Normally all that space is used up by the data of a single vehicle mode so the more modes you add, the less data there is for each mode. Which has various negative effects, the main ones are that each mode becomes less powerful and more brittle than they would be if they were used by a regular transformer.

cobalt adder
#

My reasoning for why theres Autobot & Decepticon Triple Changers kinda bleeds into my take on Shockwave's backstory a little bit, but Shockwave felt that this power and the process on how to unleash that power should be known to all Cybertronians, so they can "evolve" (as he would put it.) Because of the drawback of each additional mode becoming weaker the more you add on, most felt that downside was just too severe to work with (especially in combat.) On the other hand, some would choose to accept this tradeoff and devote themselves to mastering the ability to quick-switch between modes.

Toyhax labels finally arrived after almost 2 months and holy moly what an upgrade

# cobalt adder Oh yeah, another idea/concept I’ve been thinking of is how Triple Changers/Bots ...

I was watching a video on the history of Sixshot and that gave me the idea of:

Shockwave continuing to develop his Triple Changer/Mutliple Alt-Mode technology further in secret, even after joining the Decepticons. This would not be revealed until far too late, but not only had he gotten five alt modes onto a single Cybertronian, he had developed a method that allowed the data of each mode to be compressed & recompressed, bypassing the limitations of the previous versions by allowing each mode to function at its full capacity. However, Shockwave decided that his first test subject should logically be… himself. Modifying himself to become Sixshot: The only Transformer to have multiple Alt Modes keeping each at full strength. The Ultimate Cybertronian. (in my take)
Though to be clear: Shockwave/Sixshot wouldnt be the main villain of my Transformers story, (assuming I ever get off my ass and write it but acnfirncnfn-) though I would like to dedicate a short arc around that.

-# oh yeah I don't actually have a design for this version of Shockwave/Sixshot lol
The 'Six Shot' that inspired this was the one from Transformers Energon, I don't want to make it a straight copy-paste of that design though (even if I wanted to I'd need to change the design a little bit to account for the additional Alt Modes) but (hopefully) it demonstrates the general idea of an upgraded Shockwave until I get off my ass and actually draw out the design lol

I never watched G1 and started with Bayverse and Animated and TIL that G1 Megs never became a tank???????

Yeah
Since his toy was a gun he turned into a gun
Also because the laws were more loose back then

minor grove
#

also meg's original gun mode was based on a gun that was used in world war 2

#

by the army of the guy with the funny looknig moustache

#
  • i'm not saying that name but you get the idea -
#

maybe this is why hasbro doesn't wanna turn megs into a gun again

#

the only time they did was with the masterpeice................and classics megatron which was a nerf gun

So G2 is where he started becoming a tank
