And please don’t argue with me that they’re not. I know they’re not. I’m just saying, I was considering gettinasterpiece barricade but now a similar barricade is coming out for $19 instead $79. They’re competing against themselves

The lower part of his torso rarely shares the same grill the truck mode uses and the white stripes in robot mode too are often much thicker versions angled in shape at the sides rather than the stripes shown in truck mode. And they do that because it's impossible to replicate the weird shape shifting the cartoon does even at their much larger sizes (and you're complaining cos a little Deluxe figure can't accurate replicate the intricate complex shifting of small parts a CGI model can do). So yep those Prime toys are all crap too...

Dropkick looks nice. Do you guys think I should wait until they get their car mode toys (IF they get them) or should I just grab these?
william-james88 wrote:Prime's alt mode is all over him in most of his toys. His chest usually has his truck windows. Thats why no one minds the grill changing a bit, the alt mode is clearly visible everywhere else. But with movie figures, they looks like junkyards and now one of the main parts of barricade which actually looks like it could be from a car is a fake piece. Thats just weak sauce man.

Blitzwing?
Dropkick looks fun but might be a bit misleading if you go by his cgi box art which clearly shows him as a triple changer.

Its kind of like Basic Instinct, but not in a good way...
Goddammit, now I can't unsee it.

at this scale there is no possible way that hasbro could make a deluxe triple changer (heck, they could barely pull off voyager triple changers). clearly what they are doing is making separate toys for the cars and flying vehicle modes to make the vehicles not have to be compromised like crazy, and make them actually possible to transform at this size.

Agreed. Unfortunately, I don't think we're ever going to see a triple changing live action movie toy unless it's an alien/absract cybertronian mode. The movies focus on having real world vehicles for the alt modes, and there is no way to get two clean, good looking alt modes in one figure that is going to pass the licensors' standards for aesthetics and authenticity.
