So, the G1 men who are women in at least one other continuity;

Override (Cybertron, Bayverse, Aligned, Animated maybe there are two Overrides — one male and one female)

Joyride (Cybertron)

Tread( )bolt (Energon)

Cliffjumper (Armada)

Ironhide (Armada)

G2 Windrazor? (Ask Vector Prime, Legends, 2007 toy)

Red Alert (Universe toy in Japan, Animated)

Bombshell (Cybertron)

Nightbeat (Animated)

Sunstreaker (Animated)

Wingthing (Animated)

Drag Strip (Animated)

Thunderclap? (Aligned)

Whirl (Aligned, sort of — there's the male empurata Whirl in the Wreckers but also a female Whirl in Rescue Bots, the man barely exists in the continuity)

G2 Skyjack / Skyfall (Aligned)

Skimmer (Kreo)

Swoop (Cyberverse)

Nova Storm (Cyberverse, Earthspark)

Skywarp (Cyberverse, Earthspark)

Cosmos (Cyberverse)

Frenzy (Earthspark)

Devastator was apparently female in some random universe somebody hopped into for five seconds in some Funpub comic i think? But it was Funpub so...

Unicron Trilogy Optimus Prime from some play was apparently established as a woman in Ask Vector Prime. I didn't write her or Devastator down originally because they're barely canon, so i'm going off of memory.

Unicron Trilogy Scourge was also female in the same thing, because clone of Optimus and all.

Dub gender changes;

G1 Starscream was female in the movie's french and turkish dubs, but only the movie. Male in the rest of the series.

G1 Shrapnel was also female in the movie's french and russian dubs, but movie only.

Cyberverse Thrust was female in the japanese dub (renamed Red Wing).

Miscallenous;

G1 Ratchet was originally imagined as female by Bob Budiansky until Hasbro banned him from putting women in their boy show (tfwiki says the Shout! Factory dvd extras have images of Budiansky's handwritten concepts, it doesn't say if anybody else might've been mentioned as a woman in those but it's possible. I can't access them so).

Cyberverse Jazz would apparently have been a woman if she'd appeared more, even though the toy or something referred to her as male.

There could be more, or some dub stuff etc. which i could be missing. Or something could be weird on the list, i went through tfwiki's female transformer list over twenty hours ago and only wrote down names and continuities and whether it's actual or a dub thing.

Also note that tfwiki considering characters "G1" means Generation One continuity family", and doesn't necessarily mean they were in the Sunbow cartoon or the Marvel comic or in the japanese sequel to the Sunbow cartoon. They could've debuted in IDW1 or even IDW2, or some random tie-in crap to something.

Wait no, there were also maybe at least two bots who were female in TransTech, but i didn't write their names down because TransTech was basically fanmade. TransTech also had a bot who switched between male and female in-universe, as in more than once, but idk if they were in any real continuity. I might have ignored more prseudocanon gender swaps. I don't remember.

Also not women, but Cyberverse Acid Storm is genderfluid (tfwiki used they/them), and some bot named Screwball not being on the binary was mentioned on Nightshade's page but idk Screwball's continuity.

Now that gives us quite the list!

This will definitely be the last recolor for a while, sorry that there's a lot of them

PS Neither the egg fic nor the vegan freak have anything to do with M/gastar before you try it. That's all pure Starscream stanning, baby. And one of them is St/rop, the supposedly ""good""" ship LOL.

part 1, part 2

[bwprowl]

More cool new toys of weird old Transformers tonight, as well as a more formal piece for serious collectors of serious props. Also more of those fantasy-people figures from Boss Fight get revealed. There’re also pre-orders up for a new figma and a new old one, plus a HUGE Hot Toys release that’s been a long time coming. All this, plus a man and his van, here on Tuesday Night Toys!

New Stuff: Enemy of the State

TakaraTomy has a new exclusive set coming out of Masterpiece tapes, and they continue an utterly bonkers tradition started a few years ago. Fans went nuts when they made official toys using G1 molds of Stripes, Nightstalker, Wingthing, and Enemy, characters of varying levels of deep obscurity. Now that completionist crew is back again using the best molds available for their characters, and seeing weirdos like Enemy and Stripes rendered in high-end form is pretty surreal. Most notable beyond the character choices is Nightstalker, being based on a Masterpiece Steeljaw mold we haven’t seen yet, and which pretty much confirms a Masterpiece Blaster down the line. So there’s a lot to look forward to with this set.

Remember, Enemy is red, Rumble is black

High-end prop production company Visual Time is doing a very limited run of a replica Autobot Matrix of Leadership, the bendy, pointy, chromy version from the live-action films. It’s a neat thing to see in person, and should make a very nice display piece. If you can get one, that is, since they’re only making 350 of them, purportedly. Which means they’re probably gonna cost a buck or two, as well.

And Boss Fight Studios’ Vitruvian HACKS series keeps rolling out cool-looking new entries in their current fantasy-setting series. There’s a skull knight guy and a mage and-look, I am mostly here for that badass-looking Drow lady. I hope they have those kits they do so I can custom up my own versions. That goblin gal can probably come along too.

Wishlist: Do you have it?!

I have not heard good things about that current Berserk anime. But hopefully the myriad fans of that magnum opus can find other entries to console themselves with. For instance, the original Guts figma is getting a repainted version (hey, all those new bad guys they’re releasing need someone to fight), and given how hard that original version was getting to find, this is welcome news.

The opposite of a big guy with a sword is a small girl with a gun, and so Max Factory also has figma Rikka Shiina up for pre-order, second in their Little Armory lineup. She comes with much of the same type of cool stuff that made her predecessor Miyo so appealing (I particularly like the mag holder on the front of her chest rig). Her pop-up box accessories also include a little wall that would be totally at home at any of the airsoft ranges I’ve played at myself, which really sells this thing to me, honestly. I hope future releases all include bits like that, so you can build a decent field for them to fight it out in.

After numerous delays, Hot Toys's Hulkbuster Iron Man figure is finally set for release soon. They’ve really taken their time fine-tuning this figure, listening to fan concerns and trying and re-trying things out, all to make sure this monumental release is as perfect as possible. It should be a big moment for Sideshow once the figure is finally released, as well as for anyone who’s finally able to order one, provided they have over eight-hundred dollars on tap.

On Desk: Towing the line

You gotta love buying random old TFs off eBay, particularly from my favorite red-headed stepchild of the franchise: Energon! Today’s nifty nobody is Tow-Line, a weirdo structural homage to the G1 Ironhide/Ratchet design who is otherwise his own guy (though he’s also got Skids color scheme there. Energon was kind of a three-car-pile-up of half-assed homages). Been wanting this guy for a while out of sheer curiosity, so I finally went on eBay and snapped one up!

And then the seller couldn’t find the one I’d bought so they refunded me so I went back on eBay and bought one again!

So I got him for real and he’s a really solid little treat of a toy. Really, the vehicle mode is a rock-hard shell of a snapped-together thing, particularly apparent if you know how it transforms. On its own it’s just really unique though; it’s got a more dynamic, ‘animated’ look to it that isn’t as prominent on many of the other Energon figures, and its actual function is one-of-a-kind. How many other news van Transformers are there? Having the little broadcast rig up there with the dishes and arm able to pose give it a decent amount of play value.

Now the transformation. As mentioned, it’s an homage to the G1 Ratchet/Ironhide toy, so you just open up the van sides, pop off the top and fold a robot out of that. The remaining van slice slides out into a battle sled thing, so you put the weapon either on that or in the robot’s hand, and you’re set. The resulting robot is kinda nicely basic looking, fitting the boxy aesthetic everyone remembers Ironhide and Ratchet having, but mixing it up with a much more interesting color scheme and of course plenty of solid posability. The sled thingy, for its part, is a goofy little accessory he can just sit on, but it’s kinda supposed to be this dumb fun idea, isn’t it?

The robo-torso and the sled-bed connect together using Energon’s standard combiner clamps, meaning that’s how they interact with other Autobots for the line’s combining gimmick. Tow-bot’s battleshirt mode is pretty simple: just rotate his legs over his head as cannons and pop him onto someone with a more robust pants mode. The sled does even less, you just smash someone in top-half mode onto this doofy thing, and marvel at how it never doesn’t look stupid and hilarious.

And Tow-Line can of course combine this way with himself.

It’s like a late-series RX-78 upgrade

There’s so much going on with Tow-Line, and so much of it is fun. Silly, weird, and often stupid, yes, but all fun because of it. That’s a lot of what drove the whole ‘Unicron Trilogy’ branch of Transformers, and it’s why they’re ones I go back to a lot when I need a quick eBay pick-me-up.

Hope you enjoyed all that, everyone! And I hope you have fun until I see you next time!
