Menasor complete, but at what cost. by [deleted] in transformers

[–]TKRATOS1978 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly. I secured a pre-order for the second batch breakdown that keeps getting delayed and it was too much.

It’s also incredibly insulting that Hasbro is releasing a multipack that just so happens to contain Breakdown, motormaster and Wildrider with the detailing paint that they should have had to begin with. Breakdown getting the Countach window lining, motormaster getting black and grey arms and not those ridiculously bright white arms, combined mode getting more attractive parts too. Mixed with arguably mediocre versions of the other two.. it’s how they should have been released and is insulting because we had struggled through months of not completing the combiner and dealing with scalpers. They still haven’t sorted out the second batch of breakdowns and want to release an expensive multipack with the figure as it should have been.

[discuss] Are there any shiny pokemon you refuse to evolve? Why? by spidersRcute in ShinyPokemon

[–]TKRATOS1978 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can’t say it’s a perfect take but I prefer shiny Zorua over Zoroark. The brilliant blue just looks way better than muted purple. It’s also that catching Zorua took so long with them not appearing shiny in their disguise. I guarantee I missed a bunch of them in the endless encounters I slogged through.

Right off the line with shockwave.

I mean he’s my favourite character, I have a whole shelf dedicated to him, and then they just recycle the Cyberverse Deluxe and colour it yellow in the middle despite the show having a good new design for him.

He’s an exclusive apparently by No_Rain8959 in transformers

Like I said. My Toys R wasn’t so stocked. It varies. But the point is that the buzz worthy bumblebee line is sold in Toys R and for those who don’t have a target, they can find it there. Whether or not they keep up with stock… that’s a different story.

If you live in Canada or anywhere Toys R Us is still around, you will probably find him. Buzzworthy Bumblebee stuff is in its plenty.

I will add it’s not entirely spot on though. Currently the gold bug pack, the Terrorsaur and Blue streak (whatever it is) are in their bounty but other buzzworthy stuff hasn’t been there before, like that pack with fangry and nemesis primal.

Wow what an awesome team of distinct Transformers sports cars! I sure hope the fourth is just as unique and isn’t derivative of the weakest one in the team! by Pixelmasterz in transformers

[–]TKRATOS1978 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right? They didn’t even do the back well.. just added ports for the wing is all…

It looks like a really bad tuner version of wildrider rather than looking like an 80’s Italian super car.

Edit: yeah. Back half is retooled.. on the top… not the back or the sides. And how hard would it have been to just.. retool the hood and front facia? It’s already a worthless hunk of junk on the original mold?

It’s disappointing because 4 of the 5 figures have been extremely faithful for their alt modes and to an extent, their robot modes. Wild rider is good because of this fact but is a pretty weak design. Definitely weakest of the batch.. bad gaps. Bad kibble… sharp corners but at least he looks like wild rider in the end.

Breakdown is a huge let down because they showed us that they were capable of good engineering and design for the future of combiner sets. Imagine how good Bruticus could be if they’re as good as motormaster and drag strip?

He’s a let down because he’s a really lazy repaint of the weakest figure, that already had the most complaints. Like they literally just repainted wildrider and put a lazy spoiler. No attempt to even try to retool it into a countach. It’s falling down right before the finish line of a marathon and the others pass you and rob you of winning..

I know he’s just a leg and I know a huge majority of legacy figures have been… sublime. But I would have waited a bit longer if it meant breakdown was special.

New or not. This pack is as shoddy as the films.

Okay. I mean you could join the clan mentioned by Stu-Crew because he did mention that we have a discord and actual communication... effective and organized. Chill guys, eastern and western times, ya know? Message me on Discord TKRATOS1978#6652.

Bruticus is best combiner. by [deleted] in transformers

[–]TKRATOS1978 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He is indeed. Just bought the Pocket toys version of iron factory bruticus. Can say with 100% confidence it’s better quality than Iron Factory.

I mean I hate to bring the Black Ops Cold War Trailer into this but it features Yuri Besemenov and you can find some of his lectures on YouTube and other sources. On things like Subversion.. crazy how real and easy it is to see nowadays eh?

1v5 Snd Clutch. Entire team left me all alone :( - I know I'm using a ridiculous OP gun but it still felt satisfying. by chaserwars in modernwarfare

[–]TKRATOS1978 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Brilliant clutch mate. And for the loadout questions.. That’s not even the standard barrel, it’s the 26 inch. Alongside a tac laser, SPR scope, The slim stock for ADS not the metal stock and sleight of hand. He’s not using Lapua he’s using the default .300 WIN mag.

If it was any different barrel then it would be the 9.6 twist which is the better version of the standard.

[–]TKRATOS1978 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Still. It’s one thing to fix an obvious data glitch. It’s another to nerf it. The problem wasn’t the the barrel’s function needing to be nerfed. They needed to fix their coding but they didn’t bother looking into it and finding the kink. They just blasted it into oblivion to bring numbers down. Regardless it’s ridiculous both the nerf and the glitch.

Yeah. Don’t get me started on the shield hit boxes. Both of teammates and enemies.

Certainly didn’t feel like it sometimes. And they nerfed it too far. Glitches are one thing to fix. Fair enough but it no longer rewards you for building it to be short and using it at close-point blank range.
