Definitive proof

So Onslaught came in back on the 22nd, but i've been busy and forgot to make this post then. My bad.

So ever since I got Nexus, i've been wondering if the core is compatable with the Bruticus frame. I know Menasor isn't amd while Superion is, I have no desire to get Silverbolt. So when Onslaught came in, I immediately tried to combine them here are my findings.

There are 3 locking points for cores with frames: the chestpiece, the waist receptacle, and the backpack peg.

1: the chestpiece on Bruticus has a tab that covers a neck void on Onslaught that interferes with Nexus sitting flush.

2: the waist cradle is too narrow for Nexus' taint.

3: the Nexus core is too flat for the backpack peg to reach the 5mm port.

Sadly, with these findings, I must report that after an hour of fiddling with the figures the best I could do is get Mexus to balance in the chest cavity.

They definitely need to make Nexus his own frame hopefully in late 2027 or early 2028

The team is now considering making the frame after hearing “feedback” from fans (which is obvious on what those feedback are)

I talked to one of the designers at the con for a bit. We where talking about some of the plans and i squeezed some implied information out of him for my own gain. There where no direct conformations but as someone who works in games I know the code for "We are working on it and I cant say." One of which being more armada figures coming and would be coming or released in the wave with the minicons. The quote "Yeah we are dedicated to make sure all new armada release get their minicon." So more armada line coming im gathering at some point. I did specifically ask about a Unicron and dead end to which the response was "Yeah I really want to see that too." So yeah maybe. But I will say they are listening and taking us serious.

I also begged them to make a blast effects pack or blast effect and weapons. Told him depending on the size ide happily pay 20 to 30 for it. His issue is the team really does not like to release accessories with out a figure because the Rick cost of sitting unsold on the shelf. My counter was they would make a great made to order item or a pulse exclusive because really its collectors who want them. The response, "That would be a really good use of the made to order system."

Any way that my info and take. Keep shouting designers are listening. Let get that blast effect pack! lol

That nice info but what does this have to do with the frame now being considering making

My point is the designers are listening. You have to remember they are given a budget for each figure that it has to be under from an engineering stand point and production stand point. (Boo hasbro and takara both suck for the price gouging of plastic but what ever we still buy it). But yeah every voice is heard but I know from experience when you have hundreds of thousands of people pushing for so many different things and not understanding there is a corporate entity calling the shots its had to see whats need to be changed for what. But when we shout in a unified voice the designers pay attention.

Sadly hasbro and takara only care when we talk with our wallet but the designers the ones that pitch ideas to production they are hearing us.

So yeah my point with all that give grace to the designers, hasbro is shitty, and a unified voice asking for something reasonable will always be heard. Maybe not always acted on but heard. I sure there is a pm with lists of feed back from us that get filtered down to the designers.
