The whole arms micron thing seems silly to us westerners, but it was aimed at the Japanese teen market, with whom modelling is a big thing. Some of the weapons that are packed in with the figures are pretty sweet, but most of the Gacha ones ("gotcha?") are pretty stupid. I kind of regret buying all 12 in translucent colours, though I may follow Sabr's lead when TFCC Serpentor arrives and make his staff...

My other beef was with Ironhide. Hasbro's Kup had these great movie Ironhide weapons that would have gone great with Takara's Ironhide. But no, instead we get:

Easy. Do as I did. Get both and switch the weapons around! As an added bonus, misstransform Kup to make him very different.
Modding the second I-Gear Generations Kup head from the kit may be a bit overkill though.

I got both and painted Ironhide with a bit more red. I re painted lip and turned him into Brawn.

"lip" was likely a typo for Kup, meaning Kup was painted into Brawn, not the Micron (whose name is "Iro", btw).Moosey wrote:Optimizzy wrote: I re painted lip and turned him into Brawn.
I totally didn't realize the Micron's name was Lip, so I originally completely misread this as you were giving Ironhide some lipstick, as you can tell, I was confused with what this had to do with Brawn!

Lol you think like my mom!![]()
I knew it had to be someone's name because it was capitalized. I was just wondering why his name was Lip, because like you, I didn't know that!

Lip ----> Kup
From lips to a cup!

shajaki wrote:TFyuki doesn't rest! As a follow-up to his Powerglide Tweet earlier today, he now brings us Transformers Adventure TAV-20 Cosmos (or Adams) in and out of package! He appears to have a more G1 toy accurate coloring as opposed to Hasbro's Legends Cosmos. Have a look at the pics below, and if you don't get lost in his blue eyes then head to the Energon Pub for some great discussion.
