Its just another mismatched hybrid between cartoon and vintage toy scale combined with real world alt mode scale that doesnt look so good side by side. The only difference is now the mismatched scales take up more space on your shelf.

The lower legs don't bother you? Those big gray pieces kill it for me, along with the cannon. That's why I passed on this.Ironhidensh wrote:He is here.
Yet I find myself a little disappointed. In hand, the arm cannon just doesn't cut it. Feels like a horrendous fail. It's really eating at me.
Other than that, this figure is great. The overall body design is faithful to the comic tank Meg's, and the head sculpt is so spot on, it damn near makes up for the puny cannon.

Why are you jumping in and out of all the bigger toys sizes Generations, Masterpiece and Third party threads. With over Fifty similar bashing hate comments a week, in over Twenty different threads a week?
Is their a reason, goal or motivation. That makes you waste so much of your time doing this?

Well, I didn't think Jetfire was worth $45, and I don't think Megatron is either. I did get Jetfire for $25, thanks to another member here. I like the mold, but more as Thundercracker. As Jetfire, it's acceptable. As for Megatron, I don't know what purpose those big gray pieces serve, but couldn't they be painted at least the same as the lower legs? The gray is just too out of place for me. The cannon I could deal with, but those gray pieces are just too distracting to me. I have yet to see this figure in person, so maybe once I get it in-hand, I might think about it some more. But as it is, it's a pass.fenrir72 wrote:RP. Don't be too harsh on Megs. Remember how you didn't like Jetfire? I recall you got him on sale. Iirc you now love the mold. Megs too.......really awesome1 I still don't own one but from what I saw of him in box from a local specialty shop.......looks really great. Holding out you the Tomy version (price of the import going just the same rate as the local specialty shops. You won't regret it.
No. It's the third party MP-esque Quakewave figure.Wheeljack808 wrote:Is that g1 Shockwave in that pic?

Exactly this, and I only asked because there really needs to be a Masterpiece Shockwave. That would be an insta-buy for me.

No it isn't. It's no more any kind of Transformers toy than any other third party stuff is.Tsutsukakushi wrote:But, Fans Toys Quakewave is a Masterpiece Transformers toy.

That's debatable. From a legal trademark standpoint, sure. Any toy that transforms from one form to another, and faithfully represents a beloved character though, I would say Is a transformer.

So, a Macross Veritech is a Transformers.

The over all tone and texture is really nice.
