Thanks 2005 Boards member and Fans Toys spokesperson, dalianjj, we have an extensive gallery of Fans Toys FT-28 Hydra (Masterpiece scaled Sixshot) Test Shot.
This is a very impressive take on the great G1 Decepticon sixchanger. A very clean and neat design which is very similar to the G1 animation model in all his modes. Besides his classics guns, he will include 2 cool ninja swords. If you want to get an idea of his size, there are comparison shots with other Fans Toys releases like Fans Toys FT-18 Lupus (Masterpiece Weirdwolf) and Fans Toys FT-16 Sovereign (Masterpiece Galvatron).
This is Fans Toys first test shot for this figure. According to dalianjj, the final product will have more paint details. You can now click on the bar to check out all the images, then let us know your impressions on this new 3P alternative to Sixshot.

Great TC display!

Coming from someone that has a decent amount of space for his collection but not quite that amount of space I envy you being able to do this. Lol

And it pains me a bit that I “can’t” because I do have multiple G1s for all the triple changers

Curium
I haven't actually done it, but I keep thinking about having a different Sixshot for each mode. G1, Hydra, Hanzo, Fuuma, Terminus Hexatron. I guess Titans Return could work for one mode since I'm out of other molds (above Legends scale). Still need 1 more for his 7th mode.
Surely you could fit 5 more in that box to have all the alt modes without compromising the look of the display.

For the longest time I was between Hydra and Hanzo… ultimately went with FT but I still think both work well enough in bot mode.
Honesty
I just want another one for my MP/G1 shelf. Maybe they haven’t ever reissued it because they plan on a tweaked v2 or v1.1 mold in the future? Just wish he wasn’t like $300+ on the AM.

I rather have a v2… FT has to produce something that is better than GC's Fuuma for me to buy it
Honesty
The irony of me commenting here and the last post being my own before this one
Sold off my Hydra and now wish I had another, lmao. Can afford to buy him in his after market price, but would really rather not. Wonder why FT has never reissued him?
Honesty
I just put my Hydra up on eBay. Not sure if I priced it a little too high though.
And agreed. G-Creation’s is so much better in my eyes (personally of course). I know it’s IDW versus G1 and all, as you said, but he’s interesting as hell.
DrCalligari
I had him for a month or so when he first came out and flipped him for G-Creation Sixshot. I know he's not a G1 design but damn if he isn't more interesting in just about every way.

I'm waiting for a better MP Sixshot, though I don't know if that day will ever come. Hydra is beautiful to look at and I really don't have anything negative to say about his aesthetics, but he just can't do much more than kinda stand there with his knees being so shitty. Plus the transformation is a pain because of how much force it takes to detach his arms. I dunno, I wish Ocular Max would give him a go, Sixshot should be fun to flip back and forth but Hydra just isn't.
Honesty
Thanks for the quick/reply my man. So the listing prices I see are pretty on the mark at least. But that’s new, I think, and with box and stuff.
I’m not in-love with this guy anymore. And have been thinking of *possibly* off loading him.
DrCalligari
I usually see it around $300 to $350.
Honesty
How much is this guy worth nowadays? Wish I never tossed the box.
I see some listings on eBay but just about every single one of them (*if not all of them*) are from China/likely some being scams.

Fan dub or British dub?
Enfin
I suggest watching the dub The Galvatron voice is memorable as is Annoyed Fortress/Cerebros and Salty Wheelie

Official Anime TV | Download Anime TV APP latest version for free
This one is movies

The kiss anime apps are the best, no ads, click and stream but their server is under maintenance the last couple days. It'll come back up. The Anime TV is the next best, pretty much the same but plays an ad when you click the video but you can immediately back out which closes it. They did go off Google play a while ago so you download from their page.
The movie app is the same setup as kiss anime, search an go, and has most of the latest movies including all transformers live action
Dpuff
I wouldnt mind hearing about these apps

OK, that won't work. I was going to suggest a couple of anime apps that I use that have all things Transformers in subbed and dubbed versions
