Last year at the UK Convention Auto Assembly. Pics were not allowed to be taked of the Third party reveals panel. Read that some said they saw a pic of Carnifex beside Hexatron. Carnifex was said to be a head or Two taller than Hexatron. Don't know if it was art sketch pics or test shot pics or just words that MMC said to convention attendees.

:-?

Thinking, Plenty of time has passed since that UK Auto Assembly Carnifex reveal. Think their has to be some sort of test shot toy of Carnifex created by MMC by now. Thinking Carnifex Overlord will be MMC's big reveal toy that they first reveal Test shots toys of at various Conventions in the UK, Canada and the USA that offer Third party panels at the toy conventions.

Speculating that MMC doesn't have that much newer stuff to reveal this year at those fans conventions that offer Third party reveals. As MMC last year already showed off the DJD toys and their repurposed different characters repaints toys. Thinking MMC Carnifex is the only new thing MMC has to show off this year at conventions.

:-?

Thinking MMC is beyond the art sketch pencils stage. As they posted this CGI CAD file pic of Carnifex Overlord last year.

Then MMC posted another CGI CAD file pic of Carnifex in base mode last week. Still not sure is this is a colored test shot toy pic or a CGI CAD file pic.

I'm in love with everything I'm seeing except for one thing . . . that jet alt mode looks a -little- bit like a rocket or a speedboat than it does a jet. Think it's the tiny wings. However, considering how much MMC seems to have gotten right with this figure I can let that slide.

Bring on the preorders!

If all were gonna get is a barrage of artwork PWTT style, then this thing will not be released until sometime in 2016. No sense in getting too excited.

Convention season is coming. Since MMC doesn't have much to reveal this year. Guessing Carnifex will be shown in test shot form at multiple conventions in a few months.

What'chu talkin' 'bout Tsu? There's plenty for them to reveal that they've teased. You just have a very selective memory. To the best of my rememberings, they have:

Impctor, Overlord, Turmoil, Kaon, Nova Prime, and I'm sure a couple other surprises.

Those test shots you mentioned have all been revealed last year at multiple conventions.

Don't think MMC will bring the same test shots with them that they showed last year at conventions.

Probably a mixed bag this year T, some new some old.

Color test shots maybe. DJD does look interesting, even though Im not a comic guy. I would be interested if its a whole crew confirmed. How may characters are in DJD ?

What I look forward to most is Elita One. My fembots need their leader and that Botcon pink boat aint cutting it anymore.

One day Tsu will get his Overlord. I waited years for the Rainmakers to get toys.

5 bot crew, and I'm pumped for them.

And has MMC confirmed all of them ? Im assuming the electric chair guy is the 2nd release and the one with the faction symbol release is the 3rd ? The gun guy must be the weakest link though. Not really feeling him too much but would buy him if the others come out looking fierce.

I hope they do, the crew layout is three brutes and two smaller bots. Yes Vos probably is the weakest link in the releases....but for a legendery death machine crew with sitcom moments in plastic form, nobody should miss these imo. Also X look at it like this...you get more than just generic cons to expand your classics world. That's my true goal a mass of classics style bots that resembles a small populace. Every classics collection need more

they don't get enough love.

p.s.- I just got my first mmc figure 3 days ago....Hexatron C is sooooo good! I drank the MMC kool-aide and I must obey.

p.s.s- Happy Holidays :HALUC:

MMC's nex Hexatron is nice. I double dipped on that one.

First of all:

:APPLAUSE:

Second of all:

Is he supposed to be... MP-sized? Or will this still work for Generations?

News Credits: 12 · Sat Jul 18, 2015 4:15 pm

IIRC Overlord was always EKSBAWKS HUEG, so he can either be a big guy (for you) in an MP collection or a HUGE guy in a Classics collection.

I would use it for Generations anyway - the styling is definitely not G1 enough to be MP. Was just curious because I've never seen Overlord and Star Saber side-by-side.

I have zero problem whatsoever with him being that size and in my Classics collection. He looks amazing and I love that his two alt modes also combine together to make an even beefier jet.
