I would be so unbelievably down for this

 

[Kisaragi_Megumi]

As for TF games, wish we could get the sequel of Devastation

I would pay a shit ton of money to see that.

Beast wars trailer is out

 

[EightAte8]

This is so out of left field lmao

 

[Emirp sumitpo]

I think it looks promising, much better than I thought it would tbh.

 

[Kisaragi_Megumi]

As long it's not made by Michael Bay then we are all good
But can't deny his gift to us which are the Devastator (yes it's kinda divisive but man they are very wacky cool....except Mixmaster)

 

[LordTracer]

Can we see Nightbird in robot mode though

I didn't know you were into Transformers testicles. Good for you I guess, but be careful to not be located directly under the enemy S C R O T U M.

So we have a new Transformers game called Transformers: Reactivated. The basic plot is humans reviving Transformers to fight for them against an unknown threat. It's an online multiplayer, and likely a first person shooter judging from the trailers.

We have a Bumblebee design. I like the aesthetic it's going for but the proportions are wonky. The skinny limbs clash with the bulky torso.

Considering the plot is them reviving dead Autobots, the scrappy aesthetic makes sense.

 

[Emirp sumitpo]

Also from what I gather, this is the Optimus design for the game. While the legs are a little wonky and the trucks looks a bit too busy, I love the proportions overall (I think its better than both the BBB and ROTB in terms of proportions) and it looks great overall.

At least the design for Bee and Optimus are pretty good

FPS

Yeah Imma stop your right there chief. I don't think Transformers works at all as an FPS. One of the big cool parts and integral gameplay elements in every good Transformers game so far has been the ability to switch between vehicle mode and robot mode. I just don't think that'd work without third person, you're missing the spectacle and tactile sensation of the transformation.

Like what would a vehicle mode section look like in first person? Oh yeah you'd just be squatter and move faster, and maybe your gun arm would be gone.

 

[Kisaragi_Megumi]

This is gold lmao:

 

[Kisaragi_Megumi]

You know, it's kinda sad that the only timelines where the transformers has moderate amount of versatilities are from the Devastation timeline, it even more sad that we'll never get the sequel Sadge

That's aside, do you guys think that my Devastation Devastator vs Nico Robin would be a good idea?

Probably so.

UT and IDW have some decent hax for their character but the former doesn't have profiles and the latter is going through revisions later this month.

 

[Emirp sumitpo]

Also Reactivate will seemingly be a 3rd person shooter, and the character designs for it look good.

Windblade on her way to becoming the franchise's female Bumblebee:

She’s been doing a shit job at that considering that she hasn’t gotten a mainline figure since Titans Return.

Damm, not even from cyberverse ?

 

[LordTracer]

She did get two (which still isn’t a lot considering she was a main character) from Cyberverse, but I was thinking of the main Generations lines.

 

[EightAte8]

Despite being a main character, one of the first two protagonists in fact, she didn't get one of the actually good Deluxe figures.

 

[The_one_you_least_expect]

Damm, what about robots in disguise then?

 

[LordTracer]

Damm, what about robots in disguise then?

Four figures in all, a Legion class, a Warrior class, and two repaints of them.

This figure of her from that line is pretty good. It's what I have, and it was one of my first as I got back into collecting.

 

[Crabwhale]

It was moreso in reference to her being ******* everywhere in media as opposed to having a shit ton of toys.

 

[The_one_you_least_expect]

That also reminds me but have there been any feats are characters put in the wiki from robots in disguise?

 

[LordTracer]

Wouldn’t Arcee be more fitting for that comparison then?

 

[Emirp sumitpo]

It's weird how Windblade was like Drift.

• Disliked by the fandom when they came out
• Was on every TF media around their introduction.
• Fandom hate died down
• They slowly get less attention
• Then have been left to dust by Hasbro mostly.

Oof, that’s true.

I’d totally be down for more Windblade and Drift though (especially if it means we get Legacy figures of them).

I feel Windblade is getting more appreciated for each years but that just me

How about her best one: Flamestoys Furai Model and the upcoming Big Fire Bird one?

Big Fire Bird

H O R N Y

but also based

Okay now we're talking, thank god it's not a FPS
