am i the only person who is worried about this "Chip " ability, they should just make the figures as close to the show as possible and ignore what the current line is doing

You know, I could care less.

each one comes with a part to create a Trans-Mutate figure? cool, it's like the tf version of Marvel Legends :thumb

I think by chip, it means sound chip. Waspinator clearly wasn't remolded for a cyber key.

Intresting news on the new molds of Optimus and Megs.

No, they are new mold. The RM are too small. And I was wrong, Primal and Megs get cyber planet keys.

:pfx  LAME

 

But transmutate, DVDs, and improved figures sounds great.  And I don't have any of those yet :thumb

lets not judge the line as a whole until we see pictures of the final product for each character and each version of each character.  think about it who wouldnt love to get their hands on a near 100% show accurate figre of tigerhawk and tm2 megatron. im talking as in a figure of tm2 megatron or tigerhawk based entirely on the character models used for each of them near the end of beast wars season 3.

 

tigerhawk is definately possible to pull off mold wise almost too easy even.

 

 

hers a list showing how it can be done

 

head

 

the visor could be left optinal or it could be removed from the face all together

 

chest

the nubs on the rear feet which fold up to become the sides of the chest could be sanded down good and flat

 

shoulders

 

the targeting falcon helmet built into the left arm could be removed from the folding pin all together and ditch the folding pin from the lower left arm then just fill it in with sculpey. while the sides of the helmet could be sliced down somewhat and permantly built into the back of the tiger head as a sort of main making it so the lower left arm could move  freely in all directions at the elbow joint.

 

the right shoulder could be altered so that its more streamlined and the whole spark cannister gimmick removedwith the seat like part being molded into the right shoulder round side faceing out so that it serves as the sparkchamber itself.

 

lower arms the left and  right lower arm could be swapped out for a set of matching left arms minus the hands

 

hands

 

the hands could be replaced using the hands off of transquito sincethey are open palmed hands on that figure and the new hands could mesh well with tigerhawk with a bit of a sculpy remold job and some epoxy glue to build them onto the new lower arms and to flesh the lower arms out better. to give him the dual laser cannons mounted on his right hand and the dual claw mounted on the left hand just salvage the weaponry from the right hands of both figures slice the cannons off 1 and mold it onto the left hand and mold the entire dual laser cannon piece salvaged from the other old hand onto the new right hand

 

inner wings

 

the rotating piece that the missile launchers are built onto could instead be modified so the entire inner wing assembly rotates on it instead whil the missile launchers could still fold out from under the inner wings.

 

outer wings

 

the outer wings could be lengthend using some extra parts for mt he same figure or from universe rasorclaw. a little cutting here and there and some sculpey and epoxy glue to make them fit right and it would work fine.

 

feather missiles

 

the feather missiles would have to be flattened out at the tip and remolded at the end where the feather itself lockes into the outer wing missile launcher thereby removing the gap between the feather missile and the outer wing itself

 

crotch tail feather  assembly

 

the tail assembly would have to be cut down a little on the sides of it where the white parts of the loin cloth keep the upper legs from having a better set of movement through there.

 

 

upper legs

 

the nubs on the top front and back of the hips need ot be sanded down flat to give the figure better movement through there

 

lower legs

 

where the feet fold into the lower legs.

 

they need to  be remolded a little through there so that the robot feet fold flush and smooth into the lower legs

 

back of lower legs armor

 

they need to be remolded so that they fold up with the back of the upper legs without there being any huge gape between the 2.

 

feet

 

the inside ofthe feet need to be filled in so that the clawed anklepiecefold in good and flush with it in beasst mode

 

and that trigger on the guys back need to be removed completely and thegap filled in

 

give the guy a show accurate paint job and your all set.

 

maybe even mold over  the tiger strips on the cat head using sculpey so you know where tehy are when you go to paint them back on and it would also give hm something of a scarred battle hardened look as well.
