Ps3. Yeah, I'll get me a bit of practice first. I'm still at that awkward stage where I run sideways and fall into deep chasms.

Sure DooM played the whole game and never got past that phase

Galvasean

Played Decepticon mission 2 today. Gotta admit the flying parts are awkward at the best of times.

My favourite level for the banter between the Seekers.

The planes are easy to control once you get the hang of it.

Doctor DooM

I found the cars way harder to control than the seeke- *falls into chasm*

Galvasean

If anyone isn't already Playstation friends *thumbs up* with me feel free to ad me (username: galvasean) and eye up my very fledgling trophy collection.

Beefy78

I'll add you, mate. Have you finished the game yet? If so what did you think of it?

I keep meaning to throw myself back into the multiplayer.

Galvasean

Loved the Decepticon campaign, but strangely played through mission one of the Autobots and never got around to finishing it...

ChopShop

Just got a text message indicating that there might actually be toys of the FOC Combaticons after all.

Pictures are probably surfacing on one of the boards about now.

Deluxe Shockwave was also confirmed. but no actual pictures just yet.

constitutionus

linky.

im not a huge fan of th aesthtic, but i have to say considering the most recent efforts have been awfull IMO its nice to be getting something that looks as good as the originals.

ChopShop

Oh. Snap. I wonder how they're going to find a way to bugger this one up.

Jayd0g

They look like a great idea, really hope they don't mess it up!

Blast Off, Vortex and Bruticus

constitutionus

its like they designed brawl, swindle and half of onslaught.

then someone dropped some acid into their coffee and let them loose on vortex and blastoff.

im kinda lost as to whats behind the notion of their colour schemes, particularly as theyve been so good up to them with the others.



end result is something that feels like a power core combiner to me.

still its better than alot of the combiners of recent years and ive a feeling theres a bit of mistransformation going on.

ill wait till the in hand vids hit youtube before i make up my mind.

ChopShop

Still trying to get my head around Blast Off's alt mode.

But this will still be bought at least once.

Galvasean

Onslaught I'm not too keen on. In my mind he'll always be a lanky sullen strategist. This toy makes him look like a squat brute, too much like Brawl.
I actually like Blastoff. Vehicle mode is a but funky but what do you exect from an alien spacecraft?
Vortex, I like the design but not the colour scheme.

Still, love the G1 one style 'merge the guns together to make a ridiculous looking mega gun! feature.

ChopShop

Cybertronian colours and forms are often so 'coincidentally' close to their earth equivalent that i don't mind the difference too much.


New York Toy Fair starts..... Sunday(?)

So we should see a few more FOC toys.

ChopShop

FOC Bruticus in actual G2 colors, as opposed to Energon ones.


Might be a Hasbro Asia exclusive.


http://www.larckyray.com/index.php?topic=2084.msg9785

So how long before Ruination style urban camo? Or a Battle Gaia deco.

Bruticus is actually the most repainted G1 gestalt there is, if my memory is correct....

Also the repaint with the most badass names. You would NOT mess with Ruination. Battle Gaia? No starting on him, either.

Galvasean

Here's most of them.



I think the picture is missing a couple though.

Everyone's favourite is Urination though.

Oh and... PC version after all??! Last few seconds seem to show a PC-DVD?

ChopShop

Only if the Metroplex toy is that much bigger then the rest :pac:

Galvasean

Awesome trailer! :eek:

Jayd0g

Liking the look of Shockwave from the reviews, even with the really skinny legs!

Any idea when himself and the combaticons will hit retail over here?

Rumours indicate the next Argos catalogue......which is on the 21st?

Combaticons are all in Wave 2..... Given that Generations went askew here at Wave 2 last time......holding of breath would not be advised.

Aside from which, given the potential demand for the first retail release of this mold, the US will probably get first dibs.

ChopShop

Shockwave has a makeshift gun mode as well.


Just like Energon Shockwave(blast), oddly.

ChopShop

Growing on me.
