Thanks guys!

Saw the Ironhide pics, he's way overdue. I'm not super blown away by the mold, the back is bland, the side view has what looks like a noticeable opening, The front doesn't have much detail except in the chest area. I guess that may just be Ironhide though, he doesn't have the flashy curves in the mold, body accessories like spoilers, or cool paint apps that I've gotten used to with the sport car releases.

Of course I'll still get him cause he's Ironhide, he'll look good next to Ultra Magnus and in a display with others. Standalone he's not drawing much attention compared to his Autobot brothers except from people who really like Ironhide.

Didn't even know this was coming:

Nice!

Well, 2016 will be an expensive year for us Transformers fans. Titan Wars and other lines will yield some big ass figures including:

1) Titan Class Fortress Maximus
2) Combiner Wars Bruticus
3) Powermaster Optimus Prime
4) one other Titan class figure voted on by fans (Scorponok, Trypticon, or Omega Supreme)

That's awesome stuff. Looking forward to Fortress Maximus and Powermaster OP.

So much awesome stuff, I don't know how people will have room for all the cool TF figures coming out. I'm getting at near critical with the space I have available. I'm going to have to get really creative with my displays to fit more stuff.

Lately I've been working on my collection hobby that requires the least space, haha, which are Transformers and Voltron art sketch cards. I've been picking up some awesome art and a toy here and there as I slowly try and figure out how I'll fit in more toy stuff.

Fort Max is a must have though and I feel an SDCC version coming on for that one. A lot of must have masterpieces too and 3rd parties are always coming out with flashy stuff (some upcoming new Devastator molds look really good).

This is why I can't have another hobby. There's just not enough physical room for much more.

Trypticon ends up winning the fan vote. So Titan Class Trypticon and Fort Max + a slew of Masterpiece for 2016 (or perhaps 2017 for Trypticon).

I voted for Trypticon! Tryp won in a landslide though, so my help wasn't actually needed, haha. The 2016 Masterpiece lineup is loaded so far, and Fort Max will be colossal! Tryp is for 2017 though not 2016, but I guess now we know what the two main SDCC TF buys will be for the next two years. I got some work cut out to find room for both of them, haha.

I was surprised. I thought Scorponok would've run away with it.

The general feeling was that Scorponok has had other figures released since the original (as well as Omega), but Trypticon hasn't had a new mold since the original about 30 years ago. A lot of people wanted something to display next to 2013 Metroplex. I think we're getting all of them, the vote was just for which one was going to be next in 2017. I doubt they're going to stop making money off the Titan Class line which has been very popular and continues to look to keep going that way.

Finally some good pics of Titan Class Fortress Maximus. Not sure what to think of it yet. I'm not in awe of it like I was with Metroplex:

I dig it but as I've said before not having Metroplex helps fuel the need for Fort Max.

Looks like Red Digital will be used in filming Transformers 5. Loving the Megatron emblem on it (I think it's Megatron, anyway):

Very cool!

Trailer to the Machinima Transformer: Combiner Wars web series. Very cool:

The movie looks good!

The revamped Megatron for the next movie. These modern day Transformers designs get worse and worse with each movie:




This statue from Prime 1 would've made a great movie version:

Did they forget that these are supposed to turn into vehicles.

I like that more than the last 3 versions.

Agreed

Looks like Ultron!

Yep, that's pretty much 90% of the feedback out there.

Time to bump up the Transformers thread as its been a little while. Finally got the chance to mess with MP Inferno and complete another shelf. He's bigger than I thought he was going to be in both bot and vehicle mode, which gives Inferno a really awesome shelf presence, but caused me to tweak my original idea as to how I would fit him in the display. All for the better in the end, I really like how this shelf turned out! Hard to capture all the awesome with one picture/angle, so had to take multiple.

Wish I could put up my other recent toy purchases, but there's other things to do to the collection room and with other hobbies before that. It's a seemingly never-ending to do list, but feels nice seeing some things being finished every once in a while, haha.

Unfortunately the pics don't show up, Adrian. Glad you got Inferno. He looks like a great figure. Also glad your working on you displays! Looking forward to seeing them.
