you got that right(i've been saying that since they come up with the 1st revoltech OP).

it's basically gundam style model of a transformers.

on another note, from all the trailers, looks like AOE might turn out to be another DOTM, too much action and no character. am i the only one who thinks that?

i remember when mBay said he didn't want to make megatron into a gun in tftm because it's not logical for a big robot to transform into a tiny gun. although it didn't bother him that frenzy's head can transform into a phone.

in my view, mBay's TF was never "transformer". it's more like transmorphers.

too much pow! pow! boom! boom! but no real story/character developement? like dotm? (i'll definitely blame mBay for that )

well, guess i'm not watching it then. mBay's movies remain to be all about the pow and the boom, no plot and sense whatsoever.

....either fanboys or posers just following the trends.


seriously? a ginrai to cover your disappointment?

i don't expect the movie to be any better, but if i'm able to buy a ginrai with the excuse that i've just watched a disappointing movie, i'd be sooo happy .

now go watch all the TF series prior to tftm or just watch the original 80's TF movie(the cartoon one) as a punishment. see if you can agree with yourself afterwards.

anyway, ever since dotm, mBay has shown me that a movie can actually have too much action. that and plus the inappropriate toilet humour = Bay is bad director for transformers. the 80's cartoon transformers movie was way better than any bayformers movie. and when a cartoon has better story development than a real world movie, something has to be wrong. worst part is, you can see these a lot lately(in new movies).

no robot actually serve a purpose plot-wise except for OP, BB and Megs/Galv. that's why the others either have no personality or just a generic(useless) personality.

seriously?


who could forget that quote when they see grimlock? g1 dinobots have more personalities then all of bayformers combined.

i didn't forget, i haven't watched it and don't plan to. i was actually referring to the last 3 iterations. the idea will stay that way.

i don't know about the other "people", but i don't expect bayformers to stick to G1 everything. problem is, it's a movie about transformers, but bay manages to spend money to blow everything up, but he cant spend some money to develop the "transformers" character. that's my biggest gripe since tftm. bay tries too much to make the robots human-like, with the need to blink, to have mouths, to have expression, to know sex, that he left the most important part, character.

for one who never cared about g1, that still translates into bad directing.

grimlock was a prominent character in G1, but Bay put him off as a mindless beast. it's like putting war machine in an ironman movie but never giving him a dialogue.

correction, it has been 3 movies + another 2.5hours movies and it's still the same. it's frustrating. i don't really want world war scale war + more TF. i just want the characters to have some kind of......well character. honestly, if i never cared about transformers, i'd have a hard time recognizing ironhide from ratchet.

and yeah, the reason behind all these is just "business".

OT:

for the rotf/dotm prime(and KO in general), your biggest concern shouldn't be the paint causing cancer, it's not like you're going to digest or smoke the thing . it's basically the same cheap paint you find in hardware shops. those kind of concern are for toddlers toys, because toddlers/babies tend to put things in their mouth(don't tell me you do that too ).

the concern is the joints. KO tends to use cheaper materials. sure, most would feel all nice when you first bought it, try 3 months later. surely, some joints will become floppy. and considering how many kibbles/panels rotf/dotm OP has, i'd say only buy if you want a shelf warmer.

and for any reviewer who says KO tf is good, try asking them if they have the same opinion 3-6 months later.

hahahaha....had that experience during my study days. my housemates would do the same thing to my eva.

now, wiser, i locked my display cabinet and say to my kids i lost the keys. (well, it'll work until they're old enough to realize why do these things keeps 'moving' around)

couldn't agree more. Bay's version of OP is the most barbaric.

at least ethan hunt does not claim to be compassionate and rips off faces.

how's the comparison with generation springer? same size? jetfire seems .
