Can someone try to post some comparison shots? I dig how his weapons are white for that nice G1 homage. Why can't it be September 1st already!!! :BANG_HEAD:

There is nothing wrong with it. It's just not a very clever or fun transformation to me but it does the job well. Both modes look good and she is show accurate (the original animated version).

Well, I certainly will. I don't get how Takara can make the guy look so much more comic-accurate (as opposed to show-accurate) than the Hasbro version yet it's Hasbro's that comes with Minimus.

I don't own the original one either, but from what I can tell, she has gorilla arm syndrome, meaning that her elbows don't bend forward, but inwards:

Don't know if it was done to more homage the comics but the red thighs kill any need I might have of wanting to spend extra for this. If I was really good at part swapping maybe.

Remember, Alpha Trion never transformed in the cartoon, and originated from the pre-transformation era of Cybertron's history. :-B

Maybe Leader Class IDW inspired A3, who had a car alt-mode perhaps?

Honestly there just needs to be a Generations Voyager Vector Prime to retool into Alpha Trion >:oP

face and Sith Infiltrator-esque altmode) be redone as Autonomous Maximus.

But the last autobot doesn't look like a sith infiltrator.

If there was like a hypothetical Generation voyager Vector Prime, it could be used officially for Vector prime and Alpha trion, you could retool the; chest, head, and shoulders. The club could do the mold as the last autobot by giving the alpha trion variant a new head, and color map the chest to match. The only thing that wouldn't match would be a possible cape and the shoulder pads.

Oh and also

lends some legitimacy to a transforming alpha trion

True. "I am Alpha Trion!" "how have you not heard of me?" "lets just have you make a list of things you do understand so I can be long gone by then" Jerk

It's been a while since we saw the new Takara exclusive fembots coming out in the fall. In steps TF Yuki who comes through with a nice in-hand image of Legends Blackarachnia and Slipstream. These both have an October release date.

I'm REALLY liking that Blackarachnia. Looks really good. Slipstream, while a great color and use of the Windblade mold....her face. Just looks too cutesy anime style, all smiling benignly. It almost looks Animated-esque, which is odd, considering that Blackarachnia is the one using an Animated mold.

Her shiny deco even homages the shininess of the Japanese Animated toyline figures.

All this talk about BA and Silverbolt. Just want a clear answer (looked up tfwiki but no cigar)is BW Silverbolt the same as the CW Silverbolt who forms Superion?
