Can I please get some feedback?

 

What can I do to make this Kre-O Optimus look a little better:

Here is the original robot mode, before the extra parts are added:

I think he looks pretty damn good. The only critique I can give is that his head seems a tad small in proportion to his body. Other than that, I don't see any changes that need to be made. That tempts me to consider buying one of those kits. Did all of the extra parts that you added come with it or where they from other Kre-O sets?

Maybe some Reprolabel symbols instead of the factory provided ones. That's what I did and it helped dramatically, even with the standard build. I especially liked the clear outline symbols on red pieces - just made the symbols look a lot more like they belonged on the figure.

Thanks, guys. :)

 

The head bothers me a little as well. It's a small head already, and when you beef up the body with extra parts then it looks even smaller. :(

 

I was holding out with the Prime kit, and then I saw them on sale at K Mart this week for $22 so I bought two of them and used the extra parts from the second kit. I made some minor changes since this pic, but this is still how it looks.

 

It seems like "doubling up" on the kits works better than just one... I did the same to Bumblebee awhile ago:

I know lately there's been a lot of love for the third party Megatrons, but I do still quite like the official Masterpiece one, myself. (Well, once he has a few third party accessories, I suppose!) And, since I am going to something today that requires formal dress, since I was dressed apropriately, I couldn't resist grabbing Megatron and doing this:

That is nice!

Is it just me or is Giant more detailed than Hercules?

Are you getting the Green Giant? That pic would be so nice it would make me angry. And really jealous...

    • Please tell me this won't be the only release of TFP Cliffjumper...
    • If you've not had your fill of Transformers collaborative news today, here is some more with a leaked product listing for the Project Knight: Transformers X Knight Rider crossover. We've been dreaming of this one, and it appears a transforming K.I.T.T. will be coming as soon as August! It must be something big and or special with a $49. - Read the Full News Story
    • Tonight on GotBot Goes Live, we talked Transformers news for the newest multipack and some reissues. We also talked collaboratives with TMNT, an Ectotron reissue and, maybe, even Star Wars? Plus, we address the MP Ginrai teaser image and answer who is Riggorus?  
    • EDIT 2: Okay, I think my real problem with this was the marketing image. The main image shows four robot turtles standing together, so I was ready for four toys, not one. Admittedly, I was so disappointed that I did not bother to read the article fully. That's my fault. I apologize. That said, now that I understand it is THE van that turns into a robot, not "robot versions of the four turtles," that makes more sense, but I don't get the four heads. There are images here of a bandana free head which I gather is not included. I would actually prefer a non-specific generic turtle head for the robot. I think that would remove a lot of confusion. At least for me. EDIT 1: My bad, I misunderstood. It's one toy with swappable heads. So, you made a thing based on a four member team, and you only want to sell one toy? You're not even trying to get people to "Collect all FOUR!" You do understand how toy sales work, right? Original Comment: This is a perfectly fine idea executed TERRIBLY. You made four unique toys, each specific to each of the Ninja Turtles, that all turn into the same vehicle? It would be one thing if they joined together to form the van. There have been transformer sets like that before. This is just wasted opportunity. Not to mention, that van exists for the turtles to ride in together as a team, so if they can turn into vehicles ... what do they need a van for? I get that that's their van, and that's cute and all, but ... this is just dumb and disappointing. Why not think about what kind of car each of them would drive based on their personalities, or ask some car company if they want to do a tie-in promotional? What do I want with four copies of the same van and no one to ride in any of them? It makes no sense.
