Chance HasTak stop milking G1 nostalgia: 0. I wouldn't worry. Seems like Masterpieces are being produced more quickly now - glad some of the effort's getting spread out to other series!

Oh I'm glad they are too! I love that Beast Wars is getting masterpiece now. May even be a bit cheaper since there is no vehicle mode licencing stuff too. :BOT:


You know, this licensing thing always sounds odd to me. Of course, there is a cost somewhere, but look at AOE. Toys with licenses from Bugatti and Lambourghini were selling for the same price as the toy of transforming triceratops.

This is true. NVM me.

Do you have a G1 trailbreaker? If not, try to get the encore, he was a shooting fist gimick.

I do not own one. I cannot seem to find one intact in package for a good price (and I rarely buy out of package stuff) :BOT:

Yes, the 8 year old me was always ok with that logic. Hence why it was fine that the Ultra Primal was bigger than Rhinox.

But this just shows that this toy is indeed in a league of his own for the moment. It's not a classics, its a freaken MP!!! :michaelbay:

Gotta admit though: Star Saber was an awesome pick and came out good.

Yeah, I guess he was awesome. It's hard for me to say as Starsaber is a character I have no connection to. I actually saw his inclusion to the line as a delay of normal figures.

This looks great. It looks like the face swapping gimmick has finally come to fruition in that it allows for a spot on transformation to rotate the stomach.

Hopefully it fits with generations rhinox as I can't see how that could be improved as an mp.
Looking to swap a takara Titan class fortress maximus head for a Hasbro US retail Titan fortress maximus head.

Would alternatively buy a Hasbro US retail fortress maximus head on its own if anyone had one for sale.

PM me.

I have virtually no connection to him either, but it never hurts to see guys you don't really know or care for get a toy and then realize "damn that's really awesome." that's how it was for Saber for me. He was just so cool and then I looked into his actual history then he showed up (very differently) in IDW, so it made sense and now I have slowly started looking more into and respecting japanese shows. They did some fun and different stuff that I appreciate.

plus for some he was a true treat, the same way Primal here will be a true treat for the 90's children who loved beast wars. it will be a dream come true. It is comparable to me 15-20 years down the road getting a masterpiece Animated Bulkhead or ninja Prowl or a Prime Smokescreen or Bulkhead (I really like Bulk, he's up there on my top 5 list too). Those to me would be truly spectacular :BOT:

No argument from me. I didn't word that statement well. I meant that I could see how some would worry about the G1 theme that has been going on getting interupted. I've come close to pulling the trigger on Saber several times, he truly looks amazing, but there are so many other MP level figures that I have a better connection with that always win out.

I have yet to actually pull the trigger on a masterpiece. I have come close with Sideswipe a few times but just can't really afford to at this point in life. Trailbreaker would be a yes no matter when it was, I just want him.

Now Primal here: he makes me think. See, I wasn't into beast formers for a while, but after binge Watching all of Beast Wars during a week of work where I was bored as all get out after about 4pm, I came to really like it. That made me get Rattrap and Rhinox, and I really like Rhinox. If I had the money available to buy him? Yes, along with Sideswipe.

and masterpiece to me feels like getting that perfect version of the character you love so much, so while I fully urge Star Saber, I can totally understand going another route for that character close to you. :BOT:

It's probably because the curvature of the swords conflicts with the curvature pf his spine or something, especially if they're making the swords larger :-?

19cm is roughly 7 1/2 inches, which will put this toy about a head taller than Generations Rhinox.

Now we just need a bigger MP Rhinox to correct the sins of the inaccurately-designed Generations figure. :P

Also, four robot faces, including the faceplated one. :KREMZEEK:

I wrote it earlier in the thread but didnt catch the faceplate comment. Here is how it translated:

Gorilla face is the expression replacement formula Nanoha previously reported, but the robot mode facial expression also replaced normally, cry, smile, four types of photo of mask has been published.

So "mask" is assumed to be faceplate?

Where did you read/see that?
Twas in the Hyper Hobby info Autobase Aichi posted - http://snakas.blog95.fc2.com/blog-entry-5073.html


I wrote it earlier in the thread but didnt catch the faceplate comment. Here is how it translated:

Gorilla face is the expression replacement formula Nanoha previously reported, but the robot mode facial expression also replaced normally, cry, smile, four types of photo of mask has been published.

So "mask" is assumed to be faceplate?
Yeah, from the messy Google translation coupled with the magazine scan seen above, I wager there to be maybe three gorilla faces and four robot faces.
