Not really sure when or how I stopped receiving thread notifications, but I just got one, weird. I went six pages back and gave up. Something about Solo, seems I enabled a G2 MP Sideswipe (you're welcome), buying and losing things, face plates and facial hair.

I dig UniRod's goat, but would much rather have seen a muttonstash. I currently have a pretty epic goatee myself, but you can't quite see it. The forest for the trees kinda thing. 8-}

Faceplates are always better than kissy lips [-(

Good topic... what's your favorite TF facial feature? Robobeard, mouth, Faceplate, ect?

News Credits: 293 · by **shajaki** » Mon Jun 11, 2018 3:49 pm

So here's Evil Rod!

I'm really digging him. But he isn't perfect. As mentioned previously, I think the goat is goofy, faceplate ect. But the "un-evolved" Black Hotrod has no facial hair and sure looks sweet. And his chest thingy, I wish was the same as regular Rodders only purple. Looks like a tribal tat, hopefully Reprolabels can remedy that. Otherwise I got nothing else to say since I have reviewed the mold already. Pics!

I'm usually a fan of bots with a mouthplate and a visor myself.

Probably faceplate, but I was going say visor but with a caveat - when you can see their eyes underneath. Gen Leader Jetfire is a great example.

But my heart goes out to light piped eyes

again Gen Jetfire is a great example.

The evolved UniRod is a fun gimmick and works logically in fiction (what ever fiction. He is supposed to fit in). I really only got the figure for NemRod though and just love that evil bastard. On his chest tat, both are literally the exact same size. While I get the tribal tat look, especially if it was monochrome, but as a hard rock fan I can only see his emblem as pure metal \m/

Generations Jetfire is a great example of both. He is one of my top 10 figures in my collection for many reasons, and both of these are among them!

So.... I'm not a patient man :lol:

Cutthroat:
I'll get the bad out of the way first... ugh. His bird head, WILL fall off, in multiple pieces, ALL THE TIME. It is incredibly frustrating. Hopefully, it's not a common problem.

Sinnertwin:
Bot mode has monkey arms, otherwise he's pretty great! Beast heads are posable and both have opening mouths.

Blot:
He would be perfect, if his damn beast mouth opened. Aside from that though,

Abominus:
I need some hands/feet upgrades. But he's fantastic. I never had a full team of scramblers as a kid, but I had three Terracons. So it feels great to have this guy all assembled. He looks great, feels great, and honestly I'm fine with there being no UW counterpart. He might be my favorite Generations scrambler besides my Brutici.

I'm really digging the PE potpie hands and feet. I like how they remolded the old stuff to match the aesthetics. Cool stuff ;)^

It's taking all the power of will to not Abominus :BOOM:

I really like/want the little purple hunched over one. Blip, Bloop, Blot, whatever it's name is. But once you pop...

Potpie

And bleep bloop now that I think about it, transforms differently than every singe Generations Scrambler to date. They all compress, into a rectangle, with bits attached to make them whatever. Blipper however throws his legs onto his back, even though he CAN still do the rectangle thing for comby foot mode. I'll admit it took me a bit to figure out his beast mode because I did the same 'ol Deluxabiner trick, and it didn't result in a beast mode :lol:

I had some requests to flip some limbs around for another pic, so I did. And with more handling of Cutthroat.... I'm getting more and more infuriated :BOOM:

I kinda of had the same thing happen with Swoop because his legs also fold on his back for dino mode but do all kinds of different things for the various limb modes.

He does look unique and fun (he's a new mold right? And the other Abomilimbs are redinotools?). I dig his beast mode. Thanks for the info ;)^

Edit: Sup with Cutthroat?

Swoop! And Dinobots, right! Forgot about them.

No retooling I can see. All new molds!

You know now that you mention it, I do remember that.

I was Tfwiki checking last night:

Rip = new
Sin = Snarl
Blot = Rip
Cut = Swoop (obvs)
Cin = Slash (super obvs)

And I don't care what anyone says I see shades of Silverbolt in Hun-Gurr [-(

Whaaaaat...... no way they're all related that closely. And if they are, that is SO much retooling that I'd give them a pass. All new baby!

When these came in stock at TRU.ca (for about 12 minutes) I managed to nab a pair :DANCE:

Also, I got another oddity. Say hello to another unreleased MP coin, Grapple!
