The Unlicensed Third Party Transformers Thread
David Hingtgen replied to slaginpit's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
I'm a HUGE Trypticon fan, but the G1 Dino look is kinda silly. The WFC version is just plain badass. I don't know many Trypticon fans who don't like the "re-imagined" version. (He's also actually intelligent in WFC, not a moron like in G1) I don't like many of the WFC designs, but their Trypticon is the best-ever version of him.- 9325 replies

Yes, but his FOC alt-mode is The Nemesis. And can always do a G1-esque city-mode instead.- 9325 replies

Vote for Planet-X's next project! Planet-X is the group who just did FoC Swoop, and did WfC Omega Supreme before that. Note that these are also all WfC/FoC-themed versions, so keep that in mind---they will not be "G1 quasi-MP" versions of the characters. https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.613294732071013.1073741848.398966060170549&type=1 They seem to be only using Facebook for the vote, so the only way to get your voice heard is to "like" the picture relating to the character you want to see. Top row are the remaining 4 FoC-style dinobots of course, bottom row is Trypticon, Hound, Springer, Broadside. I would of course encourage everyone to vote for Trypticon, as Planet-X has shown they can do huge figures like their Omega Supreme, and probably no other company would ever attempt a Trypticon. And Trypticon hasn't had a figure since the original G1. FansToys is planning on all the Dinobots in G1 style, and Hasbro is of course making TF4 versions, so I see little point in asking for even more of them, when there's a super-rare opportunity like TRYPTICON. Their not-Omega-Supreme I think is still the largest/heaviest 3P figure by far, with 5 LED's. Imagine a Trypticon like that...- 9325 replies

David Hingtgen replied to slaginpit's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
I'd like a scaled-down MP-09 where the FRONT BUMPER LOCKS/PINS/PEGS into place, and isn't held in place with hopes and dreams... (also, a different way to mount the spoiler--preferably one that actually holds it on straight, and not crooked) His car mode is so close, yet has a few fairly easily avoidable issues that can really ruin the look from some angles. (and the front bumper thing is from almost all angles)- 9325 replies

The Wind Rises. Hayao Miyazaki

Personally, I see "flight" as a major theme in many Miyazaki movies. Just not necessarily airplanes/aircraft (though unconventional craft feature fairly often).- 15 replies

I think "The First" Hikaru 1J looks amazing in fighter, but not so great in battroid. There's basically no striping in battroid, especially the legs. All the awesome striping gives way to just a big red chest.

Just going to chime in that---yeah, Sakura Pigma Micron. Others I use occasionally: Zig Millenium Uchida Medallion Itoya Finepoint Sakura Microperm And of course, actual Gundam markers(fine-tipped pen versions) (basically---buy Japanese!)

So many people miss this---the red and green stripes ARE Alitalia's logo. It's a distinctive pattern/color. That's why they're kinda critical to the licensing issues. (personally, I'm really hoping for red wheels, because they look AWESOME). If they had had the paint or tooling budget, the original toy would probably have had them red. But that would have been a unique color, both plastic and paint-wise, not used anywhere else on the figure.- 17353 replies

All depends on how they paint it. Cartoon-accurate ultra-simplified deco is a deal-killer. Gotta be a nice authentic Alitalia-sponsored look. I don't need nor want every little sponsor logo etc---but it's gotta have the full stripes and Alitalia name all over it. Basically, take the G1 toy, and do what it'd look like if it had a way bigger paint budget back when.- 17353 replies

New schemes, or re-releases? TV Milia -1J for a re-release. "Macross The First" Hikaru -1J for a new scheme.

David Hingtgen replied to slaginpit's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
I think Menasor fought with his sword more than any other weapon, and used it more than any other combiner for sure. Ironically, it was against Devastator and FakeMenasor... Predaking and Piranacon are pretty well known for having swords---but how often did you actually see them use them? (I haven't finished Masterforce yet, so Piranacon may actually win out here eventually) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Anyways, so, is Galvatron supposed to be glossy or matte? And should his cannon's clear parts have a deep dark tint, or be colored with a more subtle transparency? Off to the -19 thread I go...- 9325 replies

David Hingtgen replied to slaginpit's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Heh heh, figured that was coming. Thing is---big difference between it being a limited-run variation available to those who want that version, and being the ONLY version. That isn't MP G1 Grimlock. That's MP comicbook Grimlock. And as was mentioned---for Grimlock, the difference is less than it is for many characters, and half of it is due to "how comics show black". Navy instead of black----same category as "Superman's blue hair streaks". And heck, based on that----MP-08X is wrong too for what it's trying to be. The comic seems to be a much darker silver-grey, whereas the MP-08X is lighter than the main MP-08.- 9325 replies

David Hingtgen replied to slaginpit's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
True, but if they want to sell their wares to a lot of people, making something look "off" or "exactly like the least-well-known, least-liked version" isn't the best move. How many people truly prefer the comic versions of anybody for colors? I mean, really, how well would MP-13 have sold looking like this?- 9325 replies

Thank you. Boy, I almost think the Yammie has better wings. Both still have the inner trailing edge shape quite off though and very similar to each other----maybe it's an impossibility to match the line-art while having it actually swing around into the glove for transformation?
