Glad they took a chance on Jazz! Love that character

Woo Jazz!!

Those cutout lines in his chest with circuits underneath are a bit weird though.

I'd rather they stuck with the Soundwave aesthetics. All these random details aren't needed, they should stop trying to be like XM.

Agreed! Let XM be XM. IA be IA! Both have a place in the collectors clutches cause they are both great lines.

Looks great! Looks like they got the hint and cleaned up the chest!

I have to say that I like how this guy came out more than the Ironside working models :)

Yeah I hope so. Could be the angle of this picture though.

Looks way better than Ironhide. I'm sure they got the picture there and will rework him.

They seem receptive to feedback, so I hope so. Ironhide looks pretty bad.

I really like how he's looking.

I don't know about those random flat panels on his forearms though...

gaidin
02-15-2018, 10:43 PM
I think I like the panels over his arms. The rest of the sculpt is so busy that it needs a little toning down :)

That new shot is from the legacy series, 12" :)

KELPIE
03-08-2018, 07:21 PM
Yup, however I think they said at this stage they are only doing Jazz in 12"

It’s 12” now?! Ugh that’s a pass

Commander0Zero

12 inch is all good though i do wish it was at least in the 1/4th range. I got the Optimus Prime and the thing is massive. Not all of these characters are that universally loved to warrant that scale. I love Jazz but he is probably one that might not sell well in the larger scale.

KELPIE
03-11-2018, 09:06 PM
Considering how many I want, 12" is perfect.

I feel that 1/4 can be too big when you want a large cast.

Honestly I'm really liking this size. After I pick you the larger scale Megatron whenever that is released. That will probably be my last TF statue in that scale. Unless I just can't say no to Devastator. If the paint hits the mark I'll definitely be buying this.

KELPIE
03-14-2018, 07:38 PM
yup, I agree. Anyone who says 12" is too small has rocks in their heads.

I'll finish off all my pairings but mainly focus on all the legacy statues.

T.MAC
03-14-2018, 10:41 PM
Too small!

I only want giant statues!

And tiny prices!

Lol

It’s too small, so I guess I have “rocks in my head”. I’m good with that as I still want my transformers statues to be larger.

I think doing the 12" line is a smart move for IA. Do we really think they can sell a full line of their monster size pieces? Start with the 12" and if demand is there, match with a variant large. Business decisions for a company we want to be around....

Will buy.

I really like this smaller size/price point too.

'Spose this could to in the legacy thread, however this is sweet.

I'm loving that they decided to reduce the size and make them more affordable.

Allows collectors to build these sort of collections.

I'm in for both however I think I'll skip Ironhide.

On BBTS for preorder. $399.00

BBTS has to pay to ship to U.S., then gives free shipping. So about what I thought.

Purchased.

Love the grappling hook EX.

Prowl or Bluestreak? I hope Prowl!

It's Prowl mate :)

Though it wouldn't surprise me if they tweak the model for a Bluestreak and Smokescreen down the line.

Yup, got mine for Jazz also.

He'll sit in the pile of loot for a while, so I look forward to seeing your pics. :)

Jazz has landed. Meh weather and clouds so the lighting will have to do. Will be posting Ironhide in a bit. This statue is gorgeous and worth the wait. A lot more pieces to assemble and very fragile compared to Optimus. Paint & packing is spot on. A grappling hook shot for you Kelpie. If you guys have any questions just ask.

haljordan99
01-29-2019, 05:31 PM
Dang, that looks cool! Can you take a picture next to Optimus? Is his foot held on with magnets like OP or does it actually have a peg that goes into the base?

Go check the Optimus thread. :D He's held up by a pretty sturdy solid wedge like the P1 Bayformers. No magnet or peg and goes down far enough that he's not going anywhere. His bottom half is heavier then the top half for reference. His base is heavier than Ironhides yet Ironhide is a heafty statue with a light base.

Looks fantastic Blue!

I might have to pull the trigger early on my pile of loot.

I really like that grappling hook, however I'm scared that if you display it with that for too long it will start to droop....?

Thanks for the pics!

Your welcome.

Kelpie the reel is a steel line rod and the hook is very lite. You could probably crush it between your fingers. It all looks flimsy but it's not. I've had it displayed for about 6 hours to see if it bends and it hasn't yet.

Nope. I just got a little confused assembling it. I’m trying to decide if I should get Ironhide now.

05-15-2019, 02:38 PM
wasn't that impressed with this one....looks wise it just not quite getting it. Maybe because I put him next to soundwave who looks awesome with his minions. They departed too far from g1 for my personal tastes for Ironhide.
