like blurr's big head

I LOVE his head. I know its big, but it has so much personality. And I love that the takara version elongated it by adding his traditional antenna at the top. I wonder how that works with the titan master though.

Hasbro's Blurr has the head fin in the stock photography. Who's to say that the Blurr on display at BotCon wasn't a pre-finalized sample?

Wait wait wait WAIT!! As I look closer, is it possible that the antenna is just folded down in the Botcon photo? It appears to be sitting flush to the Hasbro head, based on these two pictures. So, maybe Hasbro's does still have that antenna...

Clever

I assumed it did push in like that anyways when turning into a lil dude. The person who posed that Hasbro Blurr just forgot about it most likely.

I don't find Blurr's head big at all really. He just looks young and non-bulky which suits his character fine.

Looking at the Scourge figure, I find it novel that the headmaster figure sits in a cockpit located where scourges head would pop up to look around in the cartoon.

Decepticons' have battle sleds, and the Autobots have power sleds!

Yeah, that's pretty neat.


I'm still not sold on non-Headmasters now being Headmasters, but that Legends Blurr still looks fantastic with that toon deco.

[RodimusConvoy13]

So I'm not sure if the heads between the TR Blurr and Legends Blurr are different(besides colors) Looks like TR Blurr is able to have the thingy on his head be taller.



And a new pick of Legends Blurr just popped up here: they are the same head.

So it looks like only the original headmasters will be getting redone faces, which makes sense given they were the main cast in the headmasters toon. Can't wait to see their cerebro/fortress

All those pics can be found earlier in the thread. I dont know why dengeki hobby puts their watermark, these were clearly Takara's pics : http://www.seibertron.com/transformers/ ... ave/35124/

And while its cool that people who dont import (or dont know to) can get this fun feature, the fact that Takara paints the whole headsculpt, adds to how special this feature is and makes it more obvious. Its so cool that as with combiner wars, Takara is treating these new figures as if these are the ultimate renditions of the characters.

It was a bigger picture. So better able to see detail.

I see, cool! Can you tell if Scourge is the same head too?

Hard to say. There's only 1 shot of his head and I don't have that great of pictures of TR Scourge to compare.

Preordered!

Do you know how much Computron's shipping is going to be yet?

[william-james88]

Do you know how much Computron's shipping is going to be yet?

Yeah, about 36$ (4,000 Yen). If you can get the free shipping at TFSource (I cant because I am canadian), I recomend you go that route.

Dammit. It may literally come down to what is available for how much. Either hasbro or Takara. both have ups and downs for me. it will all depend on what is happening when they are released

I did see that. *sigh my aching wallet

Via a notification from fellow Seibertronian Logan79, we have a TFYuki tease of the Takara Tomy Unite Warriors Grand Galvatron box - but more importantly, of the upcoming Legends LG23 Galvatron, the Takara counterpart to the Titans Return Voyager. Check it out mirrored below!

[YoungPrime]

That stance looks cool. But overall I think this is a C+ effort of the mold. What's going for it is the fact that the 2.0 version was so crappy that any improved version would be welcomed.

Hasbro's version of Galvatron will do (I prefer that color more) but I'm hoping that 3rd party has the sense to be already working on a new head with crown attached as well as a better arm cannon or port that can place it on the side of his arm instead of always being on top like that. Other than those skinny thighs which I guess can't be changed, I think the figure is alright.

[Nemesis Maximo]

It looks like his head is turned, doesnt it?

[Kurona]

It was already shown that his head can turn with the crown.

Ah, guess I missed that. Where/when was it shown? Was it BotCon or somewhere else?

[Autobot N]

I don't know about you guys, but I received a personal demonstration from a staff member that Galvatron's head can turn while wearing the crown.

[william-james88]

Thats one hell of a backpack. Whats up with that long black piece riding up behind his head? Reminds me of BH Starscream.
