I think JelZe is trying to say that the plastics are gangmolded, meaning that the color of the feet was dependent on the colors of the Headmasters.fenrir72 wrote:JelZe GoldRabbit wrote:fenrir72 wrote:Takara flipped on SW and Broadcast's feet. Blaster should have had the black and SW the silver.
Blame the mold layout and the Titan Master, plus TakaraTomy's desire for a blue Twincast.
I'm talking about the transtector's feet.

Can anyone explain the Apeface/Laserbeak comic?

Just like UM and PM OP, the cab front is covered by an additional chest. On Ginrai, it has the two extra "windows" on the side, and a faux Powermaster engine and cab front, too.
This is held in place by a (friction?) mounted joint at the bottom of the cover, which allows it to swivel forward and back to open it and close it during transformation. I am sure this will be replaced with either a new pice, or an additional pice. In either case, these pieces will house the new Hi-Q/Ginrai Powermaster mini-fig in engine mode. Currently, without this add-on kit, the Powermaster engine will be housed inside the existing cab in bot mode.
Hope this helps.

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

Oh cool I must have missed the bit that says the new cab would be a proper Powermaster. Ungh now I'm gonna have to somehow afford Ginrai and then save up for that Prime cab.

There are two add-on kits. One includes rear upper thigh-fillers (similar in function the UM upgrade kit), a new, full head (with LED eyes and hopefully a ball-joined neck) and a Powermaster version of Hi-Q/Ginrai. The SECOND kit includes the base cab robot, and possibly a super-mode robot chest/adaptor for Hi-Q's/Ginrai's engine mode (I hope this also works on the cab in alt mode). If you check the picture in the OP, it states that the first kit isn't included with the new cab.

Ah damn, thats really too bad. Many of us thought they would suck but we were at least hoping to be proven wrong, which has been a trend lately (like MP Ironhide). But here it ends up being what we thought it would be and thats too bad.
Also, those feet are very different from the original and a completely new take on it, the original was totally different and anyone who uses that to defend for this has no clue what the original looked like. This is a new take on the feet and a bad one at that. I am very sorry you arent happy with your purchase though, especially with how expensive he was.

I'm not totally dissatisfied with him but he definitely wasn't what I was expecting. As far as price goes though I paid $180 shipped for all three so while it's more than the Hasbro versions it's still $50 cheaper than buying off of like tfsource or something.

They also have Wilder there, presumably from the Fangry mold, so that could be a potential two-pack with Frenzy.

I should remind you all that the red one hasn't been released by TakaraTomy yet

Oh, that's right, they've only (just) released Laserbeak and Ravage for Decepticon tapes so far. But now that Soundwave is out maybe they'll work on the rest (along with Eject, Buzzsaw, and maybe Stripes)? Then again there are a lot of other Legends figures on the way they need to work on. Perhaps Legends scale two-packs?
You know, I'm surprised we still haven't seen blind box Headmasters yet similar to what we've seen with Microns and EZ Collection for all of the heads they haven't (and probably wont) released yet.
