Looks nice, but will have to be phenomenal to be worth cashing in Sphinx for: They should have done Jazz. Mirage is covered, a really good Jazz is still needed.

Well, I'm sure I wouldn't know, Dockotor, but I am sure that I'm grateful for the information....

There are a few Jazzes, and Downbeat is pretty good, but none of them look like they'd fit with the rest of the MPs as well as Sphinx does. To me, anyway.

This guy looks insane. How have they done this??

Of interest to no one at all, I've just realised that the odd aesthetic that the Warbotron combiner had is a perfect match for the Siege style. This works really well!

Oh yes! I got that at Jodrell Bank. I had to have it. The shuttle is a rubber, the main booster a four colour pen and the side boosters are pencils. The ruler has 5 4 3 2 1 on it. Perfect.

I've been too frightened to open it incase it's only the plastic bubble that's holding it all together. I'd be devastated if it just fell apart.

Hmm. I'm really not sure here. Takara on the left, Fans Toys on the right.

The one on the right looks ten times better. More detailing so less visually boring. Vibrant colors, and more of them.
The one on the left looks like swill.

Post by Toph on Dec 28, 2019 18:56:40 GMT
Better proportioned, too

I agree! The 'official' one looks as bland as beige slacks! Sunbow gone mad! MAD!!!
I mean, there's no contest!

Wondering if I'm reaching a turning point here. I've always been in on Masterpieces, but of the last three G1, Prime was just too much for what it was, Bumblebee just looks awful and this Hound is very oddly proportioned. Conversely, Fans Toys are putting out Special Teams members that are far more like the display pieces Masterpiece figures should be. That Hound above has his toon face on, which isn't as good as the silver toy one he also comes with. Being FT, Willis also has proper heft because he has a fair bit of metal in him.
Willis still seems to sell for around a hundred, which I think shows a slow uptake on MP Hound as I'd have expected it to drop a lot more than that, so I could sell mine and 'upgrade' to MP Hound for twenty quid or so. But I don't think I want to.

Just keep a firm hold of your Willy, Pinwig. WITH BOTH HANDS!

Certainly chunky enough for two hands.

FT for me though. Perfection.
