    If I'
    If I'm buying Galvatron, Cyclonus and Scourge, I want them all to be from the same company. Same with the Dinobots. There is some consistency there. It's obviously not always the case. But with groups like these guys or the Insecticons, it has to be for me personally.

    I'm with FT. Love the look of XT but need the consistency. If FT were not producing Cyclonus I'd have gone with XT with out a doubt.

    Cyclonus doesn’t need waist swivel bc he’s a gangsta samurai killer robot ... if he needs to address you, he’ll simply turn his whole body 90 degrees and light your ass up ;)

    I think his chest it off to me....i think Xtransbots' chest looks better. Though, the rest of Quietus looks great!! IMHO!

    Since everyone's talking about this now:
    I did Spanish in high school too. I chose Japanese, but Japanese and German were for the idiots mainstream classes, so I couldn't do that without doing mainstream mathematics or English (which I would have done for maths since I suck at it, but mainstream classes in public high schools around here are a good way to learn even less at school than you already do).
    Since I didn't want to drop into classes where students regularly interrupted the teachers, chucked their tests out the window, or spent the entirety of an exam chanting swear words at the back of the class, I chose Spanish. Had the option of doing French but I hate how it sounds, so sue me.
    Spanish is super-easy too, so that helps. Got second overall in my year in Spanish without even studying, though maybe that says more about the rest of the school than it does about my intellect (or lack thereof).
    And then I went to uni and studied Japanese instead, hahaha. Never finished though because I went off to film school instead but I'd like to go back and finish studying Japanese eventually.
    A grand total of zero had lots of girls and barely any guys though. Not that the girls would talk to me anyway. :( 

    Ahem...
    He does but you have to detach the hips from the torso area, so it's not ideal. It's not a big deal though.
    Cylconus having a waist joint would be more important to me than one on Skyfire. I'm still not convinced that he doesn't have a waist swivel, but I'm just keeping out of that discussion for now. :lol 

    By the way, in case anyone didn't see, dalianjj confirmed that Scourge as a fake.

    I dunno. Ft Galvatron fits like a glove with XTB Cyclonus and Scourge as they're all so screen accurate.

    There is no guarantee, but you can try contacting XTB and seeing if they can help you with it. 3rd Party Company Contacts/Support

    So what's the chance of a FT Scourge being in the works?

    Probably still a good chance. They have done Galvatron. Now Cyclonus. They have a strong presence with the movie autobots. Arcee soon to be released and Blurr in the works. I would think Scourge would be somewhere in the near future.

    I would say virtually (but not quite) 100%. Every silhouette they have ever shown besides Scourge and Devastator have had figures so far. Past examples are Snarl, Sludge, Grimlock, Skyfire, Shrapnel, Kickback, Omega Supreme, and Cyclonus.

    With Grinder reissued the same month, I am guessing this has zero chance of meeting its original date.

    I didn't realize Grinder was still getting a reissue.

    They have managed in the past to ship a reissue at the same time as a new product, so it's not for certain that it will delay anything.

    I would've picked Latin... clearly the forces of the universe intended me to be a nerd.

    It looks like it isn't possible, considering how that orange belt buckle (navel?) intersects the chest and the waist plate.

    I'm of a similar vintage as mike and we had similar language options in high school. I took a couple years of each of three of them over the course of the four years. Then again, I didn't like math and only took what math courses I had to, so there was a trade-off. :)
