Regarding Baldigus: how will they translate his Function/Title into English?

戦闘スペシャリスト (sentō supesharisuto) Combat Specialist is pretty straightforward, but what faction will they use? Destronger? Combatron? Commando? Or even Predacon like they did for LG-EX Black Convoy?
The resident Rewind... well, half of one :lol:

- Jelze Bunnycat =:3

Looking for:
- TR Furos (Hardhead's head) and Crashbash (lost him :()
- PotP Punch head
- TR Galvatron right arm (the gun one)
- CW Brake-Neck/UW Wildrider, CW Offroad
- TR Twinferno & Grotusque
- Greenlight, Lancer and PotP Elita-1 (plus repro Victorion hands and feet?)

I wouldn't even rule out them going with Decepticon. Less likely, but hardly impossible.

Why would Baldigus have to be a dimension hopper if Grand Scourge is? The point is that there's really nothing keeping people from displaying Grand Scourge with Baldigus, or any Transformers from any line for that matter.

Wolfman Jake wrote:Wow. This surprised me quite a bit. I went to my go-to importer, TFSource, to order Baldigus, and found their preorder price is $199.99. WTF!? I went to my second choice, BigBadToyStore, and pre-ordered Baldigus for the MUCH more sane price of $159.99. What gives with the $40.00 mark-up at TFSource? Yikes!

Yeah, I was shocked when I saw the price was so high. I've been ordering my UW figures from TFSource because of the free shipping, but it looks like I need to dust off my BBTS account. Even after shipping it's only at least $166.

The funny thing is, I didn't see "Optimus Prime" when I looked at that picture. I saw IDW's Nova/Nemesis Prime. That might be because I've repurposed my Battle Core Optimus Prime as Nova Prime, of course. :P

Hmmm...perhaps one of our resident Transformers media buffs can answer this one for me. Where does that red rectangle on Takara's Unite Warriors version of Trailbreaker come from? It's not from the cartoon. The rest of the changes in plastic and paint apps from the Hasbro version certainly seem to be for the sake of screen accuracy. For that matter, why didn't they paint the joint of the combiner peg blue to match the faux windows on his robot mode chest? They did so for Ratchet to give an illusion of a full windshield. Come to think of it, they didn't do that for Ironhide either. Dang.

You know what? I honestly don't know. It's not in Marvel, Dreamwave, IDW, any of his toys... the best I can guess are animation errors or it's a reference to how his visor is red sometimes.

His cartoon model does have a little rectangle on its forehead, but like you said, it's not colored red in the cartoon. Maybe it's a subtle nod to the original G1 toy's red visor. Or maybe the Takara toy color person/people saw that detail and misremembered its not being colored in the cartoon.

Yeah, referencing the red visor of the G1 toy and some other fictional appearances is he only thing I could think of, but it's also an odd thing to reference. Takara already released Generations Trailbreaker a few years ago with a red visor, so fans who like that can always fall back on that version. I also wish someone at some point realized that Trailbreaker's gun hand is on the wrong arm! >.< That would have been easy to fix at the design stage.

The only problem I've had so far is the joints on some of the individual figures are a bit tight, particularly on Trailbreaker and Ratchet, to the point where every time I transform them I get worried about applying too much force and breaking something off. Wheeljack's combiner port also makes a worrying CLANG that's louder and feels more strained than the ports on any other Combiner Wars Deluxe I own. Despite this, I'm pleased with my purchase and I do like Lynxmaster more than Superion or Ultra Prime.


nice pics! If you don't mind me asking...how did you purchase yours? Most online retailers wont have it for a few more days. TT officiall release date is this coming Saturday (10/29)...unless perhaps it was last Saturday and I missed the announcement? I have not heard from BBTS regarding my pre-order, there's also only one pre-order on eBay as of this writing that is extremely overpriced.

Glancing at Trailbreakers 1984/85 self it seems like they didn't even show him with the missile as one of the arms.

I have a suspicion that his force field projector conceptually from the point of view of his bio writer was intended to either be his twin blasters or contained in the radar in the back of his head.

The whole missiles is really a gun thing is just a persistent cartoon animation error that gets repeated.

They shouldn't really have remoulded the arm at all - just give him a new slip on piece that works on either arm.

I've always used both fists on any G1 Character that has a missile hand in the cartoon - if only because I had the toys before I ever saw the related media.

---------

RE : Baldigus/Valdigus I hope no one who pays $200.00 for that set gets the leg assembly error - that would be rather upsetting for them if they did.

Bad enough that it's shown up on both G2 Onslaught and Vicky's Torso both.

I would guess the error has shown up on some Hotspots and Normal Onslaughts as well. But if you got that on Valdigus/Baldigus or on the Mrs Megatron & Friends set that would be pretty annoying to get a toys with huge impaction marks in the legs and parts on wrong.

Bad enough that it's shown up on both G2 Onslaught and Vicky's Torso both.

I would guess the error has shown up on some Hotspots and Normal Onslaughts as well. But if you got that on Valdigus/Baldigus or on the Mrs Megatron & Friends set that would be pretty annoying to get a toys with huge impaction marks in the legs and parts on wrong.
Here's a rundown of all the versions released so far that have had and have not had the leg error.

Error-free legs
Hasbro CW Hot Spot
Takara UW Hot spot
Hasbro CW Onslaught
Takara UW Onslaught

Error-ridden legs
Hasbro CW G2 Onslaught
Hasbro CW Pyra Magna
Fun Pub TFSS 4.0 Bludgeon

To which leg error are you referring?
The widespread leg misassembly that plagues practically every version of the G2 Onslaught (I typo'd above, I'll correct that after I make this post), Pyra Magna, and TFSS 4.0 Bludgeon. The knee struts on all these figures are reversed on both legs, preventing the knee assemblies from properly locking into place in robot mode.

Not mention it stresses the legs and almost looks like the spur is going to punch through the legs.
