Oh how I've missed you two battling each other and the reports it brings.

Seriously ... you can disagree with things, but do so without making comments about mental disorders or other disorders people may or may not have.

Now play nicely.

When you post hateful comments like this. You are no longer discussing the toy.

These comments are aimed at buyers of this toy. By harassing them and blaming them for this toy being designed this way.

And who is the number one person on this site that accuses others of having "OCD" ?

I grew up with vintage G1 figures that had no parts integration and I still have them all. I never lost a part because I took care of my toys. MY OPINION IS that parts integration came about because careless people always lose their parts. If you are so worried about losing the tail fin that you would rather have a silly looking pyramid for a jet tail, then that's all you.

Had since 1986 and still got all the parts !

Parts integration is just a untrue excuse you are using to convince others why you don't like this toy.

You don't like the toy because of it's bigger toy scale.

Even if the tail fin would be designed the way you like it. You wouldn't buy this bigger toy. because it doesn't fit into your G1 Cartoon CHUG toy scale

To be fair on Unique Toys, the tailplane would have had to have been huge to have made an effective shield, thus making the plane mode look even more ludicrous. I'll take a tiny bit of kibble over parts leprosy and a ridiculously oversized tailplane. I've always thought of his jet mode as less of a disguise and more a way for him to get around anyway- his "true" alternate mode is his tanker form.

And I for one don't hate partsforming because I'm afraid of losing parts. I hate it because it's lazy and it's a cheap way of skimping on proper engineering.

Anyway, I hope they give him a nice brushed metal finish on his silver parts. Chrome would be good too, but a proper brushed aluminium look would be extra nice.

I was ready to shrug this whole thing off (the figure reveal that is), but after looking closely at it I can really appreciate how difficult it must have been to pull off all 3 modes as well as they did.

The marvel of engineering that went into this toy is just amazing. The sculpting and articulation is high.

It's a beautiful toy in all modes.

Think it's going to be a great toy that will scale almost the same robot height. next to the MP Seekers and TW Evila Star.

Get it through your skull. I am currently only talking about my opinion why the tail sucks. Im not currently talking about scale so you shouldnt be either. Its no secret I think the size sucks. You knew that months ago. So why do you keep bringing old news up ? Lets talk about how stupid the tail looks. If it wasnt designed that way due to parts iintegration, then why is it a pyramid Einstein ? I work around jet planes and see them everyday. I have yet to see one with a stupid tail like that.

Jesus, what is with you and your one-man crusade against parts integration?

Noticed that ever thread with bigger TF toys in it. like the HasTak MP TF threads, CHUG Leader class threads, Voyager CHUG threads and all of the 3rd party bigger toys threads. you like to start trouble in with members and bash the bigger toys.

Think you like to seed and incite fights in threads. So you make members fight with you and ruin threads you don't like.

Stating your opinion is not what you do in most of the threads. Think most of the time you enjoy harassing members buying purchases. And try to Harass the companies into making toys you want.

To you, Don't think it matters when fights with you and members make you seem negative. As your reputation here is already gone. Think you like it when members argue with you, as you like to lower them to your gone level. if others can look negative here by fighting with you. then you look less negative and gain some pity support for a while.

Currently you are trying your hardest to be disruptive and cause fights in over Twenty bigger scaled TF toys threads on the 3rd party forums and toy forums. All because you don't like the bigger toys and think your complaining will change the toys to small again.

If anyone is wondering who the biggest trouble maker on the forums is. All they have to do is go to your profile and do a search on all of your post replies this week. As you are currently fighting with over 15 members this week in different threads. that you are causing trouble in and inciting fights.

Don't know why you are allowed to upset, harass and fight with over 15 members in threads each week.

Was discussing my opinion about Provider's tail fin. Im not sure why he chose to change the discussion into scale...

So how do YOU feel about Provider's pyramid tail fin ?

Rated X wrote:Was discussing my opinion about Provider's tail fin. Im not sure why he chose to twist the discussion into scale...

No, you don't get to twist this around. You're as much to blame as him. There will be no further discussion about the problems between you two.

As I said, disagree, but do NOT make it personal.

Delta Magnus wrote:Jesus, what is with you and your one-man crusade against parts integration?

When doctors offices chain pens to clipboards, thats also a form of parts integration. I suppose it serves its purpose, but its not something I need in my life.

Hahaha love the profile pic X

That guy is the one of the most hated guys in New Zealand. And I heard hes broke too

Plus he needs to change his clothes

The only thing I personally attacked was Providers tail fin.

You got so caught up in whats above, that you forgot to answer my question...

Lol the pic is part of my "diversity" month campaign. Theyll be plenty more avatars coming of people I look up to this month. He lost it all but he is smart enough I believe he will get it all back...

Disclaimer: This comment is not a personal attack against anyone. Its just ust a friendly reply to another site member that I am on good terms with. I will now get back to the topic of UT provider.

It's a digibash pic that Daimchoc posted on TFW. Don't know if it's official or fan made.


Speculating if the toy ends up this color. UT might recolor it in more G1 toy or cartoon Colors. like UT did for the Second release version of Mania king.

What part of "There will be no further discussion about the problems between you two." do you not understand? Burn said no more and here you are discussing it, even briefly. X, people are tired of having to report you, we're tired of seeing complaints. Why, oh why, must you always have the last word? Why must you push it to the very limit and make people angry? Why can't you just stop when implicitly asked to?

You've made your point time and again and we get it, we do. Since the rules have changed around here, you walk all over everyone and it's ridiculous. This is not YOUR board, this is everyone's board and you need to share more than just your opinions.

I've heard good things about you, heard that you can be polite, respectful and nice in person. Why can't you do that here? Why must you push buttons every chance you get? Don't you get tired of it? Don't you ever just say "Aw, forget it. It ain't worth it."?

It has to be exhausting to do what you do on message boards. I'd be pulling my hair out trying to keep up with posting methods as you have.

Give it a rest man, the rest of us will sincerely appreciate it.

Oh and if you feel a need to reply, I'd rather you didn't, but if you must, take it to PM. No more derailing this thread.

I hope those are not the official colors in that photo. There's something very off-putting about having the bright white on the wings and the muted color on the body. Maybe if both were white or if the colors were reversed (white body, darker wings) it would be more palatable.

It's just a digibash. I'd imagine they'll tweak the colors to be as uniform as possible so each mode hides the fact that there are other modes. I do hope they skip the chrome the original had, however. I wouldn't mind a metallic silver paint like Apollyon or CW Megatron has, though. That would work just fine for me.

I'm definitely impressed by this guy. I love how the plane engines reverse to become the tanker wheels and the wings forming the rear bumper. It's little touches like that that show UT put some care and effort into the design of this guy.

Edit and erase.

Agreed on these points, but chrome wouldn't be a deal breaker for me. Just something with more brightness.

Tsutsukakushi wrote:I don't care for the off white yellow either on this toy. As it reminds me of the 1985 Jetfire white toy and other White TF toys. that turns that yellow after years of being exposed to the elements.

Yeah, that's a pretty accurate description of the color being used. It's dingy. I could see where it might have it's uses on other figures like maybe an animal-based alt mode. But here with the purple and Crest-white on the wings, this color is just horrible.

Hopefully it's not too long until we see an official image.

Last week on the Discovery Family channel. Saw the G1 season Three, Thief in the night, episode. Think UT tried to color this Provider toy in that episode show colors.



Since UT recolored Mania King. Speculating UT will release Provider in cartoon and G1 toy colors.

What's taking UT so long to release this toy. Release date was march. Hoping it gets released in may or June.

Wondering if the delay is caused by UT having to put different colors on Provider. As the recent colors shown didn't get a warm welcome by some fans.

Would like Chrome paint put on the tanker.

That's a photoshop. We have no idea what the final colors will be.

Wasn't sure, Thanks for clearing that up.
