Re: NYCC 2015 ? Galvatron, Skylinx and Headmasters at Hasbro Preview Event

The headmasters are looking slick. Sometimes I almost regret getting out of classics. Sometimes.

All the glorious headmasters! Thought I was done with TF for a while because of all the lazy cw repaints. Anyway, we probably won't see these new toys on shelf for another year anyway.

This guy is a leader class? No way, look at the hollow arms and thin elbow, it's shame even to be voyager class.

Jetfire was like that too, but then I have no complaint about it. If u think about it, even many MP have that hollowness, just not at that arm area though. It seems like that hollowness is necessary for Galvatron to hide his hands when he transforms though. I am just guessing.

The post on TFW now seems to suggest it's indeed a voyager class, which makes sense for the supposed price point. But I'm not impressed with this mold either for the same criticisms - the hollow forearms are an eyesore and likely also means no wrist swivel (much like Mania King in that last regard), but the tread kibble under tricep does a horrible job of trying to fill the lack of width of the arm altogether and is very distracting.

Torso also looks too squat and kinda fat.... the red abs should be lower on the body somehow in proportion to the head, or that the head isn't big enough, or that the detail of the red abs are simply too large in comparison to the size of the torso.

Nope, think I'm going to hold onto my Mania King this time around. For those that criticize the horns on Mania King being too exaggerated, it's an easy fix to take an emery board to sand down the pointed tips.

As for the Headmasters, Skullcruncher looks interesting but I'm disappointed that he doesn't have the black visor; it's like they painted a huge yellow nose to divide his eyes, lol. Not a fan of that but could be an easy fix to just take a black sharpie to the top half and restore the visor look if that middle piece isn't too far raised.

Hardhead looks great except for the hollow limbs once again, but comparing alt mode to bot mode in those pics, the transformation seems very suspiciously similar to G1 Hardhead's transformation with just the likely addition of ball joints for the hips and maybe a waist swivel. Will love to see comparison photos between this and Toyworld's Hardbone.

So with these headmaster figs. Is brainstorm built in the same fashion so that they allow head switching?
