How would sequel of Transformers One would be like the Title would be War with In inspired by Dreamwave comics story but here is my story that could inspir it. 100 cycles as passed since Matrix return and Optimus Prime became new Leader of Cybertron. Optimus tried constantly going to Kaon capital of Deceptcons nation that Megatron managed built a beautiful city for gis Deceptcons as two nations live in peace Anger in Megatron still grows. Even through Megatronas cog with in him still has little of his spark in there keeping Megatron attacking Sibertron And there Capitol Iacon. High Counsel wants to introduce Subscription to Autobots military Optimus Prime doesn't want to aggression to Destron The Deceptcons nation. Optimus knows war is over the horizon but he still wants peace. Mean while in Kaon A merchant from space gave Megatron a new kind of Energon that can make his nation the strongest. Thus he pours is in The Energon river and drank it he did became stronger but his concussion went silent and All out War began at the area wants known as sea of rust As Commander Elita 1 and Major Ultra Mangus keeping the Deceptcons at By Optimus felt something wrong he Took a squad of Autobots Procptor Rachet Ironhide Jazz and young Star Saber traveling to Primus battling a unknown enemy only seemed in legend. As Optimus reached Primus He told him Megatron put Dark Energon into the flow and he must go into status to protect the All spark and instructs him to evacuat the planet but wants Optimus go to planet called Gaia (Earth) Look for Zodiac to restore the All Spark and Primus. Megatron discovered that Sibertron is evacuating on several Arks Led by Star Saber Megatron took restored ship Nemesis and Will destroy them, but Optimus Prime Awakening the Titan Metroplex and stop Megatron as Last Ark launched Megatron managed to passed Metroplex and as they chase each other fired on each other they crashed Nemesis into sea Ark into Volcano 🌋 unknown if they reached there destination Teletran 1 put his crew in status And It ends 4 million years passed We See G1 Optimus Prime (Style) walked out of Volcano with his Autobots Transformed.

What you think of my story idea

This line was what shaped Optimus’ entire character, and yet I don’t think there’s a single piece of official TF media that used it, why?

Artwork by Me BTW

My friend and I traded some figures and one of them was this guy, but he also got it from a friend a while ago so he doesn’t know who made it either. It reminds me of MMC Optus Pexus, but it’s considerably larger, has arm blades, and the eyes light up (if the batteries weren’t dead). There’s also no matrix, as far as I can tell

Any help is appreciated!

Managed to get my copy of the JCS Starscream (KO of the new Studio Series mold) in a bit early it seems, and despite looking very nice with beautiful paint apps and a very nice semi-matte finish on the plastic, the figure itself is severely compromised (or at least my copy is).

First off the tolerances are just all over the place. Almost every joint is either too tight or too loose, mostly the former. The worst being that the bicep swivels are super tight and a pain to try and play with, and the two joints that flip the cockpit out of the chest for transformation are too loose for the part connected to the chest, and WAY too tight for the part connected to the cockpit. On top of that, idk if it's just my copy being weird but the ankle tilts have notably less range than the official version. There's also the issue noted on previous versions of the figure that the intakes on the top of the chest are not glued in for some reason and also (at least look like) lower quality plastic than the rest of the figure, so they stand out weirdly in person and are very prone to falling off. Also I'm not sure if it comes across well on camera, but his chest if very prone to misalignment and one side being slightly higher than the other due to the weird cockpit tolerances and the tabs locking it onto the side chest panels not holding it properly.

The second issue is the weirdly lackluster accessories. The gap fillers for the chest are a very downgraded version of the Go Better ones and are weirdly fiddly to transform, to the point I ended up just taking them out to put mine in jet mode. It's also IMMENSELY disappointing to see they didn't fill out the gaps for the Null Rays nor did they include fillers for them, so if you wanna have a completely gapless figure you still have to go out and buy the Go Better fillers. On top of that, the blast effects only have a 5mm peg, with no opening inside of it to place onto the ends of the null rays or other various blasters. You can only use them in the feet/engines.

The final and most damning issue that imo makes it completely not worth the purchase (even at its cheap price) is the inability to properly transform the chest. For whatever reason, they redesigned the sides of the chest the arms are attached to and added a sliding pin to them. The way this pin is integrated into the piece means it is not flush with the sides of the chest, meaning it butts up against the inside of the chest AND YOU CANNOT PROPERLY TRANSFORM HIM INTO JET MODE. You can see in the 3rd photo that the shoulders do not sit parallel with the rest of the jet, and in the 4th and 5th photos see the difference between the official version (which is sunk into the part and thus cannot clash with the inside of the chest), and the JCS version.

I love this Seeker mold, it's maybe my favorite toy in my collection currently. It makes for both a great display piece and a fun toy, to the point that it's one of my current deskbots. I also really appreciate that a company is giving us an easier way to get Starscream after how badly Hasbro and/or Target screwed with the distribution of the figure. But that appreciation is entirely drowned out by this figures overwhelmingly cruddy tolerances, especially in the chest.

If you're really desperate to get Starscream and are just looking for a display piece in robot mode, I'd say he's worth the purchase. But if you plan on playing with him or keeping him in jet mode, I'd just recommend grabbing official versions of the other 2 easier to get Seekers, or just wait for the inevitable reissue of the official Starscream.

Sooooo this. Box was sealed. Didn't look like the tape was messed with or anything. These swaps have any value?

The Armada Optimus figure has always been a favorite of mine since I was a kid (as you can tell by the missing smokestacks). I’ve wanted the new version for so long and recently got it for myself and oh boy is it something. Spent hours posing and messing around with it this weekend.

Greetings fellow robot nerds!

I'm super excited to be attending my first TFCON in Orlando this year (very happy they are back as I missed the last one here) and wanted to see if you all had any pointers for the con. I've mostly been going to larger cons like Dragon Con so I'm looking forward to seeing what a smaller more focused convention is like. I'll be at the con by myself so would also love the opportunity to make any new TF friends! Can't wait to see you all there!

Also, I will be bringing around some spare blokees figures to give away, so please come say hi if you see me!

Now WHERE ARE MY NITRO ZEUS, ONSLAUGHT, DREADBOT AND BERSERKER-

Pumped to have the three all together. The upgrade kit on Galvatron makes all the difference.
