    jream's leg fillers do a great job for me with something that was unsightly. I got them for both Sideswipe and Red Alert.

    I think that chest is possible if part of the middle can push down and the sides come together.

    Or a wider section of the hood flips over to reveal a skinnier portion of the hood with an autobot insignia. That would solve the split logo for sandwiching the two halves together

    I really wish MakeToys would take a stab at doing a proper Sideswipe,even tho MP12 is nice,he has a bunch of inaccuracies like his chest sticks out too much,his waist and crotch are too small,the hollowness in his lower legs,plus a bunch of other stuff that people have posted about.

    But the thing that bothers me the most is his lack of a jetpack that was shown from MTMTE,and also that windshield on his back,if anyone can make a figure that was portrayed like that from G1 I know MakeToys is the one who can do that.I hope they will decide to make him one day.

    He aint even listed for pre order yet lol. If I had to guess we'll be lucky if he's done by years end. Seems like he's at least another 5-6 months away.

    TF-Direct have him down on pre-order as July 2017 ETA. Not sure how accurate that is.

    It only fills in about half the leg, still looks pretty unsightly.

    I wonder if Howling Meteor will have swappable faces......Starscream is an expressive character!

    Very close to trading up my Hasbro Screamer for this. The Hasbro one is fetching close to 175usd.

    How much is Howling Meteor going to cost? I only see deposits for it on some sites, not sure if there is a set price yet.

    Man I can't wait to see these guys in colors. I really hope they do the conehead seekers too, the official releases and every other 3rd party offering just isn't really doing it for me. These are perfect in my opinion.

    Was on insta this morning and saw color pics of galaxy meteor and thunder erebrus. So I figured we would've gotten pics of this guy. But I was wrong

    I'm sure they don't wanna reveal everything all at once, because then there wouldn't be any news left to get in small morsels here and there.:lol
