Im using Lazerback as a G2 Firecon next to Cindasaur and waiting for the yellow repaint to complete the threesome. I have yet to transform Lazerback into his power ranger looking robot mode though.

I do like the look of Lazerback, but don't have too much interest about the line.
Except for Shockwave. Looking forward to that photoset! Oh yes.

What did I mistransform with Lazerback? I must've missed something in his instructions when I transformed him if I've got him wrong in the gallery.

The more I look at this line, the uglier it gets. Sorry - this line is a pass, as much as the 'Crapper-Core Com-crappers' was. The only possible exception will be Shockwave, and that only because I can take his 'dragon armor' and throw it in the garbage.

The yellow part with the "feathers" or "ears" or whatever. They're supposed to angle backward. You have them over is head. It's step 12 in the instructions from beast to robot conversion.

As for the galleries, great as always!

Seriously. I just got Lazerback yesterday and he's pretty neat for what he is, but I think he looks better with those ear things flipped up like that. It makes me think of that dinosaur from Jurassic Park with the frill that popped out before it would spit venomous saliva at someone.
The Predacons all do look more or less the same to me, but having Predaking, Ripclaw and now Lazerback standing together on one shelf makes them look pretty good as a group.

I've ended up liking Ripclaw a lot more than I thought I would have. It's a very attractive looking figure even though it doesn't do very much. In general I find the stand up to transform motif incredibly lame, but for some reason Ripclaw is ok with me.

You're right. Clearly, I am quitting Seibertron over the mis-transformation of Lazerback because this site is ruined forever. I am required by law to refrain from even the slightest irritation about a mis-transformation. If you have this irritation and want to see if the photographer is aware of this mis-transformation, you shall stuff a sock in your mouth and shut up or the police will come and arrest you. You shall not offer any criticism whatsoever, or else you will be accused of "RUINED FOREVER" and beaten down with the police's fabulous batons. I wasn't aware of the new law. Thank you, powerful and almighty Dagon. You've shown me the way.

Alright, I guess so. Honestly, I'm not sure at all how you got all that out of my post, but if that's what you need it to say, then, I suppose that's fine.

When I first read Pryme’s post I thought it was a little rude, then I thought maybe he is just joking/teasing.
PrymeStriker wrote:I'd enjoy these a lot better if Lazerback hadn't been mis-transformed. Otherwise, great work.
Some of us would have said “Hey Ryan, do you know that Laserback needs one more step to finish his transformation?”
It is hard to tell the tone of voice/feeling from posts, and as a result, some posts seem more offensive then they were intended to be. Seems like Dagon wasn’t trying to offend. I can see how both posts could be offensive, or how both are just joking around. Seems like both were supposed to be good natured.
PS You both have thousands of posts and I have like 10. Just trying to help from my perspective.

I used a red sharpie and a very steady hand. I'm still surprised that I didn't screw it up. It's not perfect but it's about as good as the blue paint app that's on his head from the factory.
I used a yellow sharpie on Predaking's missiles to make them look more like they do on the official product images and to contrast the silver used on the secondary dragon heads.

Before someone else calls it, I think I have Shockwave's vehicle mode slightly mistransformed as well. I think his "wheels" are supposed to be pulled out, which I didn't notice from his instructions.
Despite the fact that a few mistransformations sneak into my galleries here and there, I'd say I do pretty good. Due to time constraints, I don't tinker with Transformers before I photograph them. What you see in my galleries is usually my first time handling the figure as well as transforming it.
I'll update Lazerback's gallery at some point with his "feathers" in the correct position.

Don't feel too bad about it, Baltmatrix missed it too; I'm guessing it's not in the instructions.

Seeing as Voyager Predaking is pretty big compared to Deluxe Smokescreen when both are in their alternate modes, this is good. It means Voyagers were big, got smaller, and are now growing again.
Go take a cold shower!

Those are on Shockwave's instructions too. Step 7 during the robot to vehicle conversion.

Ok, but the picture shows Voyager and Deluxe Bulkhead, not Predaking and Smokescreen.
Personally, I prefer hot showers, but it does look that the vehicle modes of both of the figures pictured are quite near in size. Considering they're from two different size classes but look roughly the same from the side view at least, I'd say that's bad.
But, it may just be expansion due to the heat of my shower

Pay attention, now. Bulkhead and Smokescreen aren't exactly the same height in vehicle mode, but the former certainly does not come near Voyager Predaking. This would mean Voyager Bulkhead is smaller than Voyager Predaking. A figure from last year is smaller than a new figure. Henceforth, Voyagers are getting bigger. This is good.

That snapshot was taken before he scanned an Earth vehicle mode, in which they were sadly removed. I'm surprised you just noticed them, though. The camera zoomed in clear on them in "New Recruit."

Yeah, ok, I've paid pretty close attention, and what your stupid picture and snappy attitude still don't address is why Voyager Bulkhead, from last year if the dates really matter all that much to you, and Deluxe Bulkhead from this year look to be the same size from a sideview in a picture, and whether that is good or bad.
I'm also not entirely sure why you need to rage in response to like every comment in this thread, but I suppose I apologize if my initial comment about LAzerbacks' ears ruined your life to this massive extent. I'm not arguing with you, I've certainly not instructed you to 'pay attention' or get all knobbish and direct you to some panel in an instruction sheet or anything, so I'm not too sure as to where I've so direly wronged you.

PRiD is from last year. Why does it matter? If the Voyagers from this year are bigger than last year's, Voyagers are getting bigger again, which is a good thing. This is the third time I've addressed the matter, so please don't make me repeat myself a fourth time. If comprehension is the problem, I don't know how lucid my expression could be.
I'm also not entirely sure why you need to rage in response to like every comment in this thread,
When have I "raged" in response to every comment in the thread? I expressed a great deal of sarcasm to you, showed confusion as to another's post, tried helping Ryan with Lazerback, and suggested another easy touch-up to one who did a great job on the forehead crest of Smokescreen. If that's raging, then I've officially lost faith in humanity.
or get all knobbish and direct you to some panel in an instruction sheet or anything,
I'm being specific for reference. It's something I do because I like helping others. I didn't know that was acting in part of something that opens a door.
so I'm not too sure as to where I've so direly wronged you.
You haven't.

I agree with you about Shockwave. I don't mind it at all. I like it even more that you can remove it. Not in the mood for it? Great ... take his armor off and now he looks like regular ol' Shockwave. Want a little change? Add it back on to make him stand out a little more from previous Shockwaves. Good call, Hasbro!
