I’m more worried about that last pic. GOD but Japs are a Pervy bunch.

Not like there's anything down there (we've all seen her CG animation model).

Primal's death stare says different...

I think that annoyed stare is more because of the immature behavior.

Your mom is immature *snickers immaturely*

But his mom probably doesn't throw out casual racial slurs.

Admittedly, I could have been more polite about pointing it out, as it was probably an honest mistake by Nemesis Maximo.

On the other hand, if I had been more polite, I might have missed out on the sense of validation that inevitably comes with triggering thin-skinned right-wingers.

Ah hopefully the satisfaction is a worthwhile exchange, any time I’ve tried with just go back to lacquering their windowless vans in bumper stickers quoting genesis, they just keep on keeping on.

Nobody's triggered, just fed up with your constant negativity and obsessive need to "call out" everyone you see doing something you don't like.

Dear lord guys, give it all a rest. Japan was having some fun for sure bit its no reason to be disrespectful to oneanother.

That exchange wasn't about the pictures, it was about the language used in the comments on the pictures.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_ethnic_slurs#J

I remember a very long time ago, when I was much younger and, well, stupid, arguing that "Jap" is not offensive because it's just truncating the word "Japanese". On this very board. That was insensitive towards the history of the word and the personal experiences of some board members, and it was wrong. Fortunately, another user rightly (if not politely) corrected me back then, and the staff seemed to be in agreement that that sort of language was not permitted. I could have reported NM's post to the staff, but as he was probably simply unaware of the term's historical usage, it didn't seem appropriate to involve staff and get him stuck with an official warning. I could have written a lengthy treatise about why ethnic slurs shouldn't be used, and why "Jap" is a slur, but that sort of thing usually invites a "TLDR" and/or people getting upset about me being a preachy academic. A snarky comment seemed sufficient to get the point across, and it seemed like a proportional response to the situation.

So... about that spider bot? I'm excited for her... but all these Masterpieces rolling out sure are making retail collecting a pain in the arse. Kind of glad i'm not also into Marvel Legends or really deep into Star Wars Black....

Do wonder if they'll do Rat Trap, and how much he'll be similar to his T30 version.

Could anyone send me their link to the product page on amazon.com. Trying to access from the site directly and I only get 3rd party listings.

Here ya go Willy!

I realize I never did respond. I meant to say thanks, as I did order it

The spider alt mode for the upcoming Masterpeice MP-46 Blackwidow (aka Beast Wars Blackarachnia) has received a lot of flack from fans but we never get a good look at it in the images, which constantly give us more of the bot mode, and for good reason as it looks spectacular. However, some additional images from the Malaysia Asia Comic Con give us our best look yet at the spider beast mode, especially the back, so you can see how clean it can be when transformed properly. We also get a good view of the back of Blackarachnia.

Here are all the images we have from the event so far. Some coming from Andrew, who sent them in, and others found on the Planet Iacon Facebook page.

I'd have to see comparison pics to when it was mistransformed, but it still looks pretty rough to me in spider mode. The robot mode look insanely amazing, but at the cost of making the beast mode look pretty bad.

In this picture, it looks like her spider mode could potentially be a Titan Class Headmaster. I can't unsee it!

What I can't see it...oh wait, there it is yup, there's a face that won't be going away any time soon

For that kick-ass bot mode, the spider mode is not so bad.


One of the mode must make some compromises to accommodate the other and it's normal that here, it's the bot who won.

Thank you for this GIF! I see some mass-shifting shenanigans going on with her "hands" as they become the spider-mode's mandibles. I've started watching Beast Wars again and I've never noticed this during the show.

She'll be going into bot mode rather quickly when I get her. And honestly, considering the cheats BW did? Spider-mode looks about as good as we'll get.

"Cheats" is an understatement.

Super excited to eventually get her! She does look really good in robot mode, and I do love the stand

and the abdomen seem to pop out of nowhere going into spider mode

I think the fact that the robot mode is 150% perfect and the spider mode is 80% perfect is pretty damn perfect. I mean come on, how can anyone conceivably believe there’s a better way to achieve an actual inflation in plastic form? The fact that the spider mode is as good as it is is nothing short of amazing. I think the naysayers have absolutely unreasonable expectations of a physical object. They’re probably the same people that go out to eat on a Saturday Night with a party of 14 and get upset because they have to wait for a table big enough when they didn’t call ahead to make a reservation.

It was the best word to come to mind at the moment, but yeah. There's some serious reality-warping with Blackarachnia in the show.
