    Depends on the company... although Hot Toys certainly sets the standard these days. I still use a colon myself.

    I think "customized" is the word you're looking for. Still looks a little too dark to me, but much better than your earlier attempt.

    Yeah, but what wouldn't be? That series was the finest animation I've ever seen on TV. Good point. Writing, direction, performance, pacing, plot, music... character design alone does not define whether a show is any good or not. Hmm... Looks more Genndy Tartakovsky's work to me. Heavily inspired, at least...

    Man, that's a bad-ass figure... but what are you covering up at the bottom of the pic?
  5. tekering
    What, this cover? Obviously, they couldn't be bothered to have someone check their Japanese text before they went to print.

    I think a picture is worth a thousand words, that's what I think.

    The intakes on the shoulders are a deal-breaker for me. Why can't they rotate forward to be perpendicular, like the Masterpiece seekers can? It seems silly for MakeToys to try so hard for additional cartoon accuracy, but fail to do what HasTak has done for over a decade...

    He's much more prominent in The Headmasters.

    Something like this, perhaps?

    Wow, that's desperate. FansProject has decided to resurrect their Steel Core mold from six years ago, stick a new head on it, and pretend it's Grimlock? And to think they used to be an important part of the third-party market... Oh, how the mighty have fallen.

    Looks like nice, clean work... from what I can see. If you have a light source in front of your subject -- as opposed to above it -- the figure wouldn't be so obscured by shadows.

    Not a problem in space. Love it, Shizuka!

    Something like this? Oh, they definitely are... and mostly just endless variations on a single design, as opposed to the myriad design concepts Transformers represent. Thanks for writing!

    What, the one labeled "Itano the Pervert?" I doubt that's canon, any more than those Phalanx Destroids are.

    Actually, most of it's just repurposed accessories from other toy lines... DST, McFarlane, NECA, Hasbro... There's all sorts of useful stuff out there.

    I'll take one of each!

    Despite the obsolete scale, ol' MP-1 is still my favorite. The ideal blend of cartoon and toy aesthetics, this is the toy that started it all for me. If it weren't for this guy, I wouldn't have spent the last fifteen years collecting Transformers...!

    I had no interest in upgrading my MP-10 until I saw those new Transform Element pics. They just took TakaraTomy to school, yo!

    No, the city will remain 1:150 (except for a little forced-perspective here and there), but I intend to reduce much of it to rubble. In the meantime, I'm working on a 1:12 scale city alley diorama...

    Doesn't seem to have worked... But hey, at least you gave it a shot.

    Looks good to me, amptor. Nah, I just bought a bunch of USB-powered LED strips... ...and then plugged them into a USB power supply. The overhead grating the lights shine through in the ceiling are repurposed panels from The Ubiquitous diorama sets.

    Oh, Hollywood won't do anything nearly that good.

    Much appreciated, gentlemen. I'm afraid my alter ego will have to suffice, for the time being...

    Looks like somebody screwed up scanning that Sunbow model sheet. The midsection should look like this:
