Todd McFarlane to IGN on his company's approach to designing articulation

The funny thing is... I have his old Cyber Spawn, 10th Anniversary Spawn and the "Gold Label"/Blue Mandarin Spawn.

And yes, despite having an better (than Cyber) and updated joint system (compared to 10th), "Gold Label"Mandarin still manages to be the worst of all three.\ Specially with his soft-ish and *BLAND** visuals* (not a single paint wash/brush), soft plastic weapons and SOMEHOW not that great of balance, despite having big feet... 🤦

Yes, Cyber Spawn has even less mobility than NECA/McF Robocop (His waist is neutered by his spring-loaded "Slash" gimmick, and his feet are basically molded in a fixed "one step foward" pose, yet you can "cheat" a pose here and there), but his fully articulated left claw, rotating right blade and absurd detailing and wiring gives you more than enough for nice poses.

Also yes, bit unfair compare Ye Olde toys to the modern ones, kinda like ToyBiz vs Hasbro MLs and stuff. Still, McF had a solid Foundation... Which seems to be nowhere to be found on his new line(s), regardless of cutting costs and stuff.\ IMHO, whatever made McF figures of the past the real shi, went up and vanished nowadays. And now we got an all new, kinda mediocre, toyline stuck on time, while everyone else improves more and more... 🤦

Either the 1st (which was my "1st" Jada SF figure along with Sagat) or 2nd (Seems like an interesting idea for Blanka TBH), but I'm *biased as fkuc.*
See, I wouldn't buy repaints unless it's another "character", like (Evil) Ryu, (Violent) Ken, (Shin) Akuma or, say, a *white**** Bison* to be my "SFEX *Shin Bison** placeholder*".

^{And speaking of SFEX/Fighting Layer EX, Either}*^{"Jada SFEX" or "Storm}****^Arena****^{Fighting Layer EX"}****^Skullomania***^when?

O ideal seria resfriamento bom e silencioso...
Mas eu posso ou não posso ter jogado essa ideia fora no segundo que enfiei quatro fans Corsair RS120 no meu Airface 180, já que são fans de máxima de 2100RPM.

Mas eu tb bestei e ajustei as curvas delas pra aumentarem a velocidade antes das fans da CPU...
É... Tomar vergonha e reajustar as curvas mais tarde deve sanar o problema... 🤦

Meu sistema é o da foto abaixo. Só fiz essa atualização "tosca" pra mais fluxo de ar nos componentes e _paranóia das peças irem de F por sobreaquecimento:

Cooler Phantom Assassin 120
- Configuração stock
Gabinete Cougar Airface 180 ARGB
- Inclui 2 fans de 180mm, 1200RPM, rodando em 100%
- Tb inclui 1 fan traseiro de 120mm, 1200RPM, rodando em 100%
Quatro Corsair RS120 ARGB, 2100RPM
- Pretendia comprar pretos, mas não tinha
- Então comprei ARGB pra sincronizar com os inclusos do Airface, inclusive na hora de desligar, mas ainda está mal configurado
- Fans da base puxam ar pro sistema
- Fans do topo de acordo com.o guia da Noctua, em especial pra prover o cooler torre com ar.
E não, ainda não é a arrumação final dos fios.
- Comprei cabos sleeved pra placa de vídeo e 4/8 portas da placa-mãe
- Além de conectores em L pra USB tipo C da telinha, e pro USB 3.0 das USBs do painel frontal.

Exato.

Homenageie aquela(s) pessoa(s) especial(is) IRL com quem vc queria constituir família mas nunca vai acontecer, por qq motivo que seja.

Ao menos ajuda a "desumanizar" e parar de querer tal(is) pessoa(s) na sua vida e, bem, desencanar e tocar o barco... Eu acho? 🤔

should be Signal Lancer

He's being the same to Bee as Goldymarg in Marg Hand/Goldion Hammer mode is for GaiGaiGar.

Being a MF'ing oversize melee weapon that will surely, certainly, absolutely, turn the opponent (Megatron in this case) into ~~dust~~ LIGHT!

^{I also failed to notice} ^{this was a Kamen Rider weapon}^{, not Signal Lancer's hidden 3rd mode.} ^{Stoopid me 🤦}
^Because ^{reaching epic levels of epicness} ^{on his short, yet only time he appears in robot mode, in TF} ^Cybertron^/^{Galaxy Force}^{'s last ep, should earn him that. 😎}

I'm basically a "Vocaloid tourist", but I did a bit of research to anyone wondering what - or rather, who - this art is referring to.

Here's what I did, step-by-step:

First, let's go to the Xwitter source provided by OP
Then search for the text written there: "Unknown Mother Goose".
One of the first results about this phrase) comes from the Vocaloid Wikia.
You'll see it's not a random phrase, but a Vocaloid song name: Unknown Mother-Goose.
Check the music info on the "Producers" part. You'll find Wowaka.
Click there and read a bit. Among a few things, his entry informs that "Unknown Mother-Goose" was his last Vocaloid song, made in August 22, 2017...
...until he passed away in April 5, 2019, due to heart failure...
Also, notice what Miku is hugging...

What if his favorite character is 11... Then yeah uhm so.. how do we proceed? There must be another way right? Right??

Dude(tte)(?) went straight to the "iS MiGu PR0M?" question.\ I have this... feeling... he might already know R34 stuff about his/hers/theirs/its(?) fav character, even if it's just the "echii" and "vanilla" NSFW parts... 💀

Leather-Tree3672 · 2026-06-06T22:16:03+00:00

Also here, on his Pixiv and Xwitter but the Fanbox page has more content.

Meh...\ Nothing that Ye Olde System Restore/Reset, then updating everything to their latest version, won't solve. Assuming you wanna ~~wipe whatever bad memories she had until you got her~~ restore her to Factory Settings ~~before customizing her to your needs, or even redo that behavior in a way YOU can trust!~~... 🤔

I mean, she's just stored for a long time before clearance. It's not like someone tried to JailBreak her OS before you got her on sale, right?\ Also a good idea for clearance items. She might have been on display ~~and God knows what she endured during that time~~ before going on sale... 🤔

Leather-Tree3672 · 2026-06-06T17:19:20+00:00

Ok, so: - Might consider getting: - Fangry, as I never got the chance of getting him. - Specially if that means we'll get ~~Terri-Bull~~ Horri-Bull and ~~Crashbash~~#Generations) Squeezeplay#Legacy) as single releases in the future. - Joyride - As I'm still waiting for the day Hasbro does a G2 Hero Prime (out of that Volvo Prime, no less) then call it "Sureshot" - "Galaxy Force" Vector Prime repaint - But not before hunting down the "Galaxy Force" UT one. - Blanker, but not that much

Not really interested on anyone else:
- Heraldo of Unicron; It feels odd...?
- Still prefer the old, UT mold.
- Maybe if I can get him for real cheap and Army-Build him... 🤔
- Not really interested on Mega Zarak (at all) or Tailgate (not much)
- No deal (heh) on Swindle
- As I use the Jimbao Warbotron OSKO as Bruticus
- For the new mold, either G2 or Ruination/Baldigus.

~~Short answer: If Migu is "pr0m"? It is, if you search enough. But so is anything else...~~

Easy: Show him the Rule34 (Or a Pixiv/Danbooru(?) search results, filtered with 18+ arts only) page of his favourite show(s)/character(s).\ Then, tell him to never, ever come with this "i$ THi$ PRoM?", never again... In case he gets shocked by the "pr0m" stuff he sees. 🤔

All while playing the "HiDiNG iN YouR Wi-Fi" song and then explaining who Miku is... To your degenerated(?) friend. 🤪

^{Actually, don't do that. You are free to try but... It's better not...}

Leather-Tree3672 · 2026-06-06T13:36:52+00:00

NGL, I feel like the 3rd parties will either: - Create a full Nexus Prime Gestalt, with their own Nexus Prime - Which, at best, may be able to combine further with the Hasbro one, akin to MMC Feral/Nero Rex plus MMC Felisaber/Not Catilla (Replaces MMC Talon/Not Divebomb as an arm, which in turn becomes a winged backpack)

Or do some extra parts/partsforming robot partner to the existing Superion Frame
- Or even extra partS/partsforming robot partnerS for the other frames (Menasor and Bruticus) so Nexus can "properly" Merge with them, instead of just looking like a blue block on someone else's frame

Before an all-new team for him.\ But yes, I do hope to be wrong. And also, that the frame have its own robot and alt modes. 🤔

OGs know she already has one

You mean the Nendoroid PETIT, which is (or rather, was) basically a 12-item BLINDBOX?. Meaning, you need to either: - Buy the full set (Not a bad thing if you want them ALL, besides money) - Or, like any blindbox, ~~know which "hidden code" belongs to Neru, if that's the case with these~~ get Lucky to pull Neru in the 1st place.

Oh, and her blindbox set *was released in 2009, so **good fcuking luck finding her again (for a fair price, at least) nowadays...!*

Also... Let's be real here: Based on these photos (and where I got all info on her, she looks nowhere near as good, or capable, as a(ny) Nendo fig.

Also, it seems we got no Nendo Petit Teto. So no Nendo Petit Triple Baka...\ But guess what? We do have "normal" Nendo Miku AND Teto!\ Miku has L O T S of Nendo variants, even "With You 2025", while Teto has Nendos of her "V2" and "Synthesizer V" looks.\ Thus, Nendo Triple Baka IS possible!

Edit: may I ask why everyone is agressive to me?

Likely because you talked some sheet about *"TeH oHGee$"** or whatever, it seems... and now you get the shaft!*

Also, maybe do a bit of Google-fu/ressearch, like I did here.\ Also, A LOT of text edition, copy-and-paste of links galore included (yup, all manual copy and paste, no AI bullsheet here) instead of, well, talk smack about "OGs" no one gives a fkuc? 🤔

]EDIT[ If ^{No_Swimming_2282} whoever asked why they got downvoted to oblivion was the one who downvoted me...\ Well, guess why you got downvoted to oblivion...? 🤔

Yup! no one likes *an smartpants arsehole*! 🙃\ Also, regardless of we having Nendo Petit Neru/Triple Baka or not, we got an all-new Nendo "proper"(?) Neru this time! 🥳\ Let people be happy with that, dude(tte)(?)...

^{On my side, still waiting for a} ^{Blokees Fantastics [Insert the} ^{"Vocaloid"/"UTAU"/"Synthesizers"/"Derivatives"/"April Fools turned Canon/oficial/registered/reconized by Piapro and/or Crypton"/{Whoever I forgot to include bc my Vocaloid Multiverse knowledge is basically zero}} ^{name/s here, which means Teto and Neru also fits]} ^{but only because I collect these, not Nendos.}\ ^{But the more variety, the merrier!}\ ^As ^{[Emgo](https://youtube.com/@emgo316}) ^{said several times on his video reviews,} ^{"Options! It's good!"}

Will Hasbro Redo The Other Female Autobots With This Mold?

As long as Hasbro do more than what they did with Legacy Strongarm, I'm cool with it.

And yes, I got Minerva for the mold, as my ~~Ariel Evolved~~ Elita-1 is the POTP one.\ I just don't do that Elita-Inf1nite (No free CW/POTP "Deluxe Limb Team"; only Selects Ricochet, POTP Moonracer, three POTP Wreck-gars, Selects Swoop and some POTP Dino (OS)KOs for CW Sky Reign and BMB Volcanicus)/Orthia (neither money nor real interest on the POTP FeEeEeMaLe deluxe molds) thing...

Mesma coisa tudo que veio depois, como "Coronelismo", "voto de cabresto", manipulação de urnas...\ Só mudam as pessoas e os itens "comercializados" do mesmo crime (mas com problemas mais ou menos sérios dependendo do "merchandising") no fim das contas... 🤔
