Unique Toys Salmoore (Go Bots Cy-Kill)

[Trent]

Pretty awesome. I don't see them having to compete with too many other 3P companies with this one :)

http://www.robotkingdom.com/utd01.html

$80, May release.

This looks awesome! :)
I'd always wanted an updated Cy-Kill.
The bike mode looks too earth-bound... I'd prefer it to be more futuristic looking
...and a lot less blue as well.
Bot mode looks great!
SOLD! :D

[UltraMarginal]

It does look realy nice in both modes, I think the transformation might be a ripoff of Wreck-gar however. just with the uncymmetrical legs and general layout.

I noticed it when I saw the arms tucked behind the front wheels.

Would've been nice to have the hands resemble Cy-Kill's old clamp hands too.

[Sky Shadow]

I greatly approve of the homage, not so much of the execution.

[SuspectimusPrime]

Compared with the other major players that has been slow with releases, Unique Toys is really going all-in to dominate the third party market.

Also, the BBTS listing at $99.99 (http://www.bigbadtoystore.com/bbts/product.aspx?product=UQT10009&mode=retail&utm_source=Marketing&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=Marketing&utm_content=).

Just mirrored the images in case people were to lazy to click the preorder links.

I like it! I like the way they have modernized his look. He just needs some cool accessories shooting lasers out your fists just doesn't cut it anymore. :rolleyes:

This looks nice. Always disliked the cartoon version's bendy arms. I felt it made the character look weak.

Agreed in both cases, but I'm very much considering this iteration if only to help support the idea of MORE 3rd Party Gobots! ;):cool:

IMO, these are looking WAY better than their previous CG renders, looking forward to seeing some colour prototype pics before its supposed May release. :cool:

[Trent]

That is a really nice looking bike mode.

It would seem (http://www.tfw2005.com/transformers-news/conventions-15/tfcon-2014-3rd-party-panel-part-1-180694/) that the people responsible for Salmoore might've split to form their own respective 3rd Party Group - DX-9; notably, intending to offer up these: :eek::D:cool:

...and F*** Yeah - Crasher!!! :eek::D

[CBratron]

More Crasher is always a good idea in my book but I'm not sure it'd be worth having it it waswn't more faithful to the cartoon. Especially when there already is a classics mold even if it wasn't widely available.

I like the idea of the front of her alt mode sticking out the back of her head.

[Lord_Zed]

Don't really see the point in what is essentially just a bigger Wreckgar, but I do think it's cool they are doing the official Machine Robo repaint for Salmore.

Crasher could be good or not, the official versions was too damned hard to get.

[Sky Shadow]

Does anyone else think it's weird that the Hasbro Fracture was a repaint of Mirage, and this Crasher is clearly designed with a G1 Mirage body? Why not make... I don't know... an actual Crasher toy?

I noticed that too, but I want to see how it's executed, if the CAD is to be believed this one appears to have less hollow looking legs, but it does seem as though they have adopted the transformation. The real question is, is the altmode actually Crasher.

And where is Cop-tur?

No, I mean that's just an articulated version of the 1984 Mirage toy in 1985 Crasher colours. :(

Guess we know what the repaint will be then. ;)
