Yes. Now go to your room and don't play with yourself.

At least it's new and not another damn Stylor repaint for the 10th time.

Odd? Is that an oxymoron?
Heads turning into tiny robots
A 50 ft tall 'bot transforms into a SONY Walkman
A giant robot has a mind of both man and woman that turns into an engine block
Nope....not odd at all
I stop counting oddities in this franchise the moment a small yellow horned 'bot transformed into a not flying saucer that ran on wheels in a fully metallic world back in 1984.
That's why they're "More than Meets the Eye!"
Odd as in he has short stumpy feet that does not visually match the humanoid appearance of the rest of that robot. Nothing you said has anything to do with the visual appearance of Ginrai's feet being stumpy. I'm just saying knowing the reason for it does not change the fact it is.

I think he looks like Cobra Commander with a red visor. Either that or Soundwave with a silver head.
JelZe GoldRabbit wrote:The helmet shape is similar, but the face isn't: no visor and a mouth. and the body details don't match up either.

Well nothing I was just saying that at least the head titan master is an original mold and not another Stylor repaint like most of them have been.

Exaggeration of course I don't think I should need to put /s at the end of it.
It's still probably the titan master mold used most besides the Crashbash sculpt which comes at second with three uses.
We have Hyperfire (Blurr), Stylor (Chromedome), Teslor (Brainstorm), Throttle (Getaway) so far that is 4 uses of the same head mold.

With the Legends anime-accurate retools of Chromedome and Brainstorm, that makes 6. Indeed the most so far, and I'm not even counting redecos.

Yes. Now go to your room and don't play with yourself.
And that's all fine and dandy, but we're still no step closer into figuring out who/what the design of Godbomber's Headmaster is based on.Deadput wrote:Yes it brings it up to more if you count Japanese or exclusive versions of the same character but even with just one per character that is still 1 guy being used amongst 4 separate characters.

I've watched the show. There are no characters related to those two who look like that Headmaster's design.Deadput wrote:Sabrblade wrote:And that's all fine and dandy, but we're still no step closer into figuring out who/what the design of Godbomber's Headmaster is based on.
Just search for related characters in the show either to God Bomber or Ginrai and maybe we will find out the inspiration of God Bomber's Titan master.
It didn't come across as a joke to me. It sounded at first like you thought I was complaining about the design being "generic" and tried to ease said "complaint" by pointing out how it's at least a new figure. But now that I see it was a joke, I... don't find the humor in it.Deadput wrote:Why are you hounding me about this subject anyways I was making a joke about how hey we might not know what inspired God Boomber's titan master but at least he is a new mold and not another re use from another figure like Stylor or Crashbash.
That was the point there is nothing else to it.

It just seems to have derailed the original purpose of trying to figure out what Godbomber's Headmaster is based on.

A stretch, indeed. The shoulders are the only similarity I see, but even then, just for their being block-shaped.Deadput wrote:A Stretch probably but it's a guess.

For all we know, the source of inspiration may not even be something directly tied to Ginrai or Godbomber, but rather something indirect instead, like how Sixshot's Titan Master, Revolver, is based on one of Chromedome's friends, Jack, who happened to have been one of Sixshot's many murder victims in The Headmasters cartoon.

Not this?
It's loose but that head looks pretty close. And some of the body shapes too.Deadput wrote:Sabrblade wrote:It didn't come across as a joke to me.

Sorry about that I guess my humor just doesn't translate on the net that well I guess mostly because it's missing the tone I would normally use if I was saying that joke to a person in real life.
But hey I might have a lead on the original source of the titan master.![]()
Power master Optimus was originally supposed to be a head master and Roller would become his head the Roller robot mode looks a bit similar to God Bomber's head master here.
A Stretch probably but it's a guess.
