In any case it's a pass regardless. My PE Rumble and Frenzy and MP Laserbeak and Buzzsaw fit my collections fine.

As for the new A3 pics, ice seen all I need to see of the bot mode, I want to see the beast mode

You and me both! I have been waiting for pics of alt mode, they are just holding out on us!

The could use the upcoming Stripes mold for Raindance.

Soundwave's minions look bloody awful. I don't get how 30 year old Laserbeak has a far better bird form than one made that recently. At least the original one looks like it could glide. This one looks barely more aerodynamic than the boring brick it turns into. Booster X10 was a far better attempt at this sorta design in both his modes and he came out nearly a decade ago.

To my knowledge, nowhere. Not publicly anyway.
How about we dont pester the guy. Obviously, he has connections we dont, must we know more? I mean its not like he's at the liberty of showing us the pics. Lets just be glad we have another person like Chainclaw who is willing to answer some of our questions to tide us over the eventual reveal.
Thats not true, he answered that the picutres werent public, so right there its where it stops. there was no need for you to further ask what his connection is once he said the image had not been found elsewhere, that was the pestering.
My bad fellas. I've been having a hard time logging onto the site as of late.
Yes, I have been fortunate enough to see a lot of the new stuff that's coming out. I'm hardly the only one, but I do appreciate what has been shared with me.
If anyone is going to Botcon we will talk about it over a beer or two (or 12. or when they close the bar)

But to be fair, boosterx10 won't work with the new soundwave neither will any of the old minion releases

But on a more important note, what's with alpha trions horns? They're cool, but odd.

Nothing wrong with that
I do like the idea that this could be like his 'regal battle armor', so, an exaggerated helmet design would seem befitting

I definetly got the Tigerhawk vibe when I first saw him. Not so much Alpha Trion, though. I'm not trying to be a geewunner, but this guy just seems too beefy for the character. I don't know. Maybe after all these years of writing in his journal, he decided to call it quits and hit up the gym.D-Maximus_Primal wrote:I like the helmet horns. they add a certain new level of Majesty to his robot mode and it looks cool with his overall look. although... I am feeling BW Silverbolt and Tigerhawk pretty strong with this one... or is it just me?

I also like Laserbeak as black and red instead of red and black. Although, I think that he should've had more silver somehow. Maybe a silver screen sticker instead of the black one used. That would've put silver on the wings and the body which might have made it look more like a traditional Laserbeak.

Alpha Trion is a sure buy, he sounds super cool. I dont think those horns are part of a helmet though, I think they are some background kibble that ends up being there when seen at that angle.
And while I am totally getting a tigerhawk vibe, I hope that just remains a nice homage rather than an indication that this mold will be used for Tigerhawk, which wouldnt make much sense.

So like with Galvatron, he has a helmet too? Ok.

That makes sense, right? Don't all the voyager triple changers have helmets?

Well, Sentinel appears not to have a helmet. Some of them may, some may not I think

They all have some sort of head related gimmick to the Voyagers. Astrotrain and Sentinel have the side collars around the head, Megatron has a collar type and Prime has a helmet. (from what I can see anyways.)

While nothing new is revealed, this is actually our first chance to see the finished look of all the figures since so far we were only shown digital renders and painted models. Galvatron, for instance, is no longer dark purple but instead more of a fushia grape flavour colour while the headmaster is not painted silver anymore. This video gives us a very good look at the new play value which is the selling point of this series. It also further confirms that any shot of Fort Max' base mode seen so far is accurate and not a mistransformation.
You can see the video by clicking on the picture below, enjoy!

I am really surprised the galvatron head is unpainted. But yes, I do still look forward to them.

Yeah, that image sort of confused me. IDK, I was just not expecting that. Even so, Headmasters! And I am excited for the baseformers too. Blaster and Fort Max for sure, Prime maybe. I'm still not completely sure, and considering there is that rumor of another voyager prime, I'm just not sure

Not a one that jumped out at me. It was all very quick, but I full screened it and pressed pause a lot.

I'm 98% certain of no mistransformations. All seems good!

Is that better or worse than puce?
I think this was cool, especially how they emphasized Fort Max at the end. I may have to go back and watch it almost frame by frame to see if there are answers to some of my earlier questions...
