Very noce! How'd you get Groove on Optimus like that?
Here's my own, less refined attempt at using scramble power:
Mainly I wanted to use the pipe weapons as Optimus-style smokestacks.

I picked up Groove last night and when I looked at the art more and more his face, it made me think of Legos as I looked on.

Thanks guys. Just me playing with my toys.

Looks good! I love the smoke stack look. I can't do it though 'cause I'm not going to get Brake Neck. Hope somebody else comes with the pipes.Mainly I wanted to use the pipe weapons as Optimus-style smokestacks.
Not sure if I will get him. Honestly though I'd rather have Battlecore than traditional Prime. Just for the sake of having a different Prime. This year is getting pricey, gotta trim the fat somewhere.ZeroWolf wrote:Indeed those colours are great, can't wait to see what what combinations you get out of battlecore prime Cobotron

Probably wishful thinking to get anything different in terms of molding/re-tooling for Vortex...
There's a pretty substantial amount of re-tooling for 3/5 team members.
However, with the re-tooling and not brand-new molds, I think it's extremely likely that TT will make a new mold for Blast Off.
And although I think a jet alt-mode works really well with this group, and even as a limb,
that will be difficult to resist...
Here's a few other things I predict for a TT release:
--More show-accurate paint apps (as usual)
(it will be interesting to see what they do with the Bruticus chestplate)
--A light-gray Bruticus head
--A large gun for Brut
A new Blast Off and the light gray Bruticus head color will be enough for me to buy TT's.
The rest will all be a nice bonus.

Whether or not TT might attempt a new mold for Blastoff and/or Vortex, I would like to speculate or even wish that, maybe a mold based on a Mil Mi-24. And possible to detach the rotor blades similar to Baldigus/Encore to use them as a melee weapon. That would be awesome!
Blast-off too. A terrestial fighter jet? The Autobots already have that sealed and the 'cons their Seekers already. Swindle and the rest, no complaints at all.
Maybe the green camo deco for Onslaught like his G1 incarnation would be neat!
And Swindle is just so yummy! (Btw, he didn't pay me for that endorsement
Shockwave being part of the pack, here's hoping TT also includes him.
Hopefully barring delays, last week of February or March 2016.

There's a slight bend at MM's knees and to keep him upright I use the little back talons on the feet. It's also quite a bit of fiddling before I get him to stand just right.

Dont have Hotspot yet, but I have all the limbs I need to start looking into the best combination I will use. I settled on this one for hostpot while Motormaster will keep Offroad and dead end will be replaced by Brake-nec to have 2 black legs.

In the G1 show, SkyLynx was Predaking's counter foil. So now, should we expect a rumble of combiner kings.....SkyReign vs Predaking?

Noticed something disturbing with the "Blastoff" mold. The military green is painted. Wish the final would be molded because if not, expect a lot of paint chipping. Not good. But this are just preliminary samples right?

Welll, if the product ain't ready, even the mock up, I'd have deferred releasing them. It's not like they have any competition like the GoBots or something.

I think it was more "look at what we got in the pipeline! " after all these aren't set for release for a couple of months yet.

That's a hand-painted sample. They rarely, if ever, put final versions of newly-revealed figures in the BotCon display cases.fenrir72 wrote:Noticed something disturbing with the "Blastoff" mold.
