In style perhaps, but not in directly inspired by the movie character. It just seems like a design that's gone through so many drafts and redesigns and over-designing that it ends up at a point where it really doesn't look like the original.
Still, it does look awesome, and I'm really digging that tank tread cape.

Something a bit more original like thise should be what designers try to go for instead of generic designs like all the Autobots from RID.

Reminds me a bit of how the tank treads drape from RotF Bludgeon's shoulders. I like it.

Yes, this.

Yes, this.
Yes. Tread cape. Put kibble to good use.
And, while I do see and agree with the latter point, they don't exactly have the budget for that...

Honestly, they kinda do. Figures like Fracture and Bisk prove that RiD can be very creative and intuitive, they just kind of... skipped leg day on the Autobots.
Regardless, yes. Tank tread cape is easily the best element of this design. I'm really not sure on the rest - I have no idea where that head came from and I have no idea what part of this design says 'G1' - but there's at least a few very cool things here.

Eh it's easier sometimes to make a design look better in a static image compared to a moving scene but maybe change the head to the ROTF Megatron helmet which actually looks pretty great and this would be good design.
Also change the cannon to look a little less cartoony since right now it doesn't really fit with the rest of him. (In my opinion of course)

Y'know, I thought it might be part of an upcoming figure, but now that you say that...

One of the most feared Decepticon is returning in the upcoming Transformers Movie "The Last Knight". We are excited to tease the perfect companion piece to The Last Knight's Optimus Prime release this week. This will look amazing when displayed together. What do you guys think ?

There also was a display featuring toys from all the 5 movies, where in the miserable TLK section, I believe I have spotted the Taiwan TRU Lucky Draw Optimus Prime and Bumblebee!

Though nor did it to Hasbro when releasing several toys of Berserker who only appears for a five seconds in the film and doesn't get to go with the other 'cons.

The teaser looks EXTREMELY awesome! Can't wait to see the whole figure! Whooooooo!

Hopefully the Bumblebee movie will be successful enough that the "Decepticonvicts" will get their own spin-off where they actually get some development. I want some more Nitro Zeus goddamnit!
With regards to the statue itself, it looks amazing but I don't have the budget to be buying a hyper-costly, xbox hueg immobile statue of a character who did absolutely bugger all. Now, if it were a smaller, less expensive "build it yourself" resin garage kit I might buy it, mainly because of my love of modelling.

I'm extra angry due to the promise that "Nothing can prepare you for Onslaught" when in reality he ended up pulling a Glonk- doing absolutely nothing and dying. (Anyone who gets that reference gets a cookie.) Makes me wonder if there's some behind the scenes drama we don't know about.

Yeah, that was one of my main problems with the movie. They hyped the TLK Decepticons up until I even thought that at least one of the AOE Autobots was going to get killed by them. What happened actually was entirely opposite.
But then like you said, if all those "Punks" from TLK gets their own spin-off, it'll be FRIGGIN' awesome!

I just wouldn't be able to justify the price for it but damn is it one good looking piece of art.
Posted by Sabrblade on July 22nd, 2017 @ 9:12am CDT
Yeah, if anyone's corpse had to be under Megatron's foot, even though Dinobot makes the most sense due to his longstanding relationship with Megatron in the show, Terrorsaur would have been a much less disturbing choice.

At first I was on board JUST for the tiny inclusion of Dinobot, but in retrospect I don't like it. They got his teeth all wrong.
