Would "Quakebreak" have not been better suited to have the earthquake power instead of the gravity power?

And the teleport power would have people accuse her of knocking off Skywarp.

Probably, but you can still make the point of her using gravity and kinetic energyotoo make objects fall to earth, and the cause an earth quake like impact.
As for signature powers aligning with a figures other attributes, was gravity control being the winning option before we've even glimpsed the anticipated female gestalt a conscious attempt to make fandom produce as many breast-weapon jokes as possible? 'Cause when I think of female combiner-bots that defy gravity, Volspina immediately springs to mind.

Even allowing that her ranged weapons were a component-mecha's elbows, the configuration doesn't seem structurally sound without some anti-grav engines.

Granted, it probably was the best option of those 3, since there are multiple TFs with iconic earthquake powers.

Homina homina...what on earth is she from?

Art style reminds me of Masami Obari's muscled/voluptous look. Is getting hot around here.

Did some googling, and it seemsto be from a rather fanservice heavy anime called Godannar.

I don't know about the rest of y'all, but the last time I was in my local Wal-Mart, Gravity and females of any kind just DO NOT seem to go well together. Pretty much mortal enemies in fact. :lol:

Thanks for that. I knew I recognized her from somewhere. I think she was piloted by the barely clothed very voluptuous Russian female pilot. :WHISTLE:

Been a while since I've seen the anime. Crazy show, lots of fun, but absolutely bonkers. Highly recommended for great laughs. Fan service goes both ways in that one. 8-}

Transformers writers, artists and designers would never get away with something like that. Too many purists would explode. :michaelbay:

Well, with a design like that, it's the feminists they gotta worry about. :lol:

Or you know, people who find it telling of certain mindsets, for creator and audience alike.

Not my battle, but since I'm feeling a little nosy....

Well, I consider myself a "gender equalist". If girls can have their shirtless werewolf dudes in Twilight and Daniel Craig stepping out of the ocean in swimming trunks, surely they wouldn't begrudge their fellow audiences from the other gender some eye candy.

Fair's fair, after all.

But before this gets off-topic any further, I'll just stop right here.

Yes, let's.

(The discussion keeps coming up, and we do have a thread that seems to encompass a lot of it, over here, in case!)

...I think I'll pass.

I have a "theory" to throw out there. So each mold has a hand/foot weapon that goes with it correct? Well, by the looks of the combiner hunters comic, that hand is a Breakdown styled hand, so I think that the Breakdown mold will be one of the deluxes. possible?

by **Moosey** » Tue Jun 02, 2015 5:36 pm

Good observation! Didn't think of that yet. Also I was glad that this thread was no longer a flame war... then I found out it had turned into a discussion of voluptuous robots..... Don't worry, I know where the door is.

So do we know if this is going to be sold separately in a wave or as a boxset yet?

I'm guessing each sold separately, same as the other deluxe/voyager/legends combiners. I don't know, but that would be my guess since it will be regular retail.

I don't think it's been announced yet but I'm hoping it's a box set So it doesn't take up a wave.

Article in USA TODAY reveals the following: We now know that this combiner will have two helicopters, two "Race cars", a motorcycle, and a rescue truck for alt modes. I sure hope you guys like that alpha bravo mold because we will be getting TWO MORE with this one!!!

Hmmm, is that the torso of Hotspot and two Alpha Bravo/Blades helicopter moulds as her arms...?

Interesting. :grin:

Now we're talking! She's looking good here, and I hope the toy release does her justice.

News Credits: 25 · by **SW's SilverHammer** » Fri Jun 19, 2015 12:02 pm

Well I like alot about her. There are a few things I hope happens in the development chain. First being that the defensor chestplate is retooled to angle in. The second is that I hope there's alot of retooled parts on the figures, especially the heads, I want to see the heads. Third, I wish she had a mouth plate. Maybe that's go overboard with the gundam, but it's be cool.
