    I love this guy to bits, he is just perfect!
    He actually made me get rid of the Human alliance series I have and restart a collection in a smaller scale as I have always wanted.

    You are right, I need to be more precise, I meant AOE Voyager Hound, I am torn to see if I should track down an Hasbro version or if I need a Oversized Ko Hound to customize and display with SS Stinger, Bee and Jazz

    Local retailers in my country have started selling the TLK turbo changers at a discount, and started packing two packs for the price of one. so I picked up two sets and damn, I'm addicted.

    Is there anyone who could possibly get us a side by side shot of SS Megatron and the TLK Voyager Megs? I'm aware the TLK version is 30 feet tall as opposed to the 35 he was for the first 3 movies so I'd like to see if that translates to the toys.

    EDIT: Found a good comparison in Emgo's review. What do you guys think? I think this actually works pretty well. Should I hunt down a voyager TLK Megs? I've heard he's great fun.

    One thing I forgot to mention about Jazz in my last post was that, due to the nature of his transformation, some paint has started to chip on the hood of the car mode. It's very minor so far, but something worth watching out for

    TLK Megatron is absolutely worth hunting down. He's a really fun figure, full of articulation, and a really good representation of the ILM character model. I think you can get him for pretty cheap these days on Amazon too

    Unfortunately, I do not. However, he is perfectly eye to eye with Leader TLK Megatron.

    Who knows there could possibly be a masterpiece revealed and im sure it would be better than the leader. That’s why I’m kind of kicking myself a bit due to me thinking straight after I bought him that an mpm starscream would be announced. But hey he’s still damn impressive

    Looking forward to picking up SS Jazz, and I've got a question. The Human Alliance Jazz had the ability to flip up his visor and reveal his eyes. Even though the visor on the SS one is apart of the sculpt, did Hasbro at least sculpt his eyes under the visor of the Studio Series version?

    Today I found out that I am in love with Ironhide To...
    But I actually fell for his older version, the DOTM Voyager class

    I have a picture request. Sorry if someone already posted this but could someone with Studio Series Jazz take a picture of him with Sidearm Sideswipe and/or Alien Attack Firage?

    I know he's small but I really want a new Jazz for my collection and just want to see how tiny he would be with those two.

    On the plus side, Jazz is actually supposed to be small at least. Top of his head doesn't quite make it up to Sidearm Sideswipes neck/shoulder area.

    Just noticed you're the only other person I've seen so far who painted BB's shoulders with the black pinstriping and such!

    Nice custom, your car definitely came out better than mine.

    Does Ironhide tower over all Primes though? He looks great here.

    Not sure how to actually get under the visor- the studio series heads don't seem to be screwed together, not sure if they'll pry apart or not.

    So I can't get a good look at it, but there is definitely something under there that resembles what you're looking for. It'll be interesting to see if you can get to it without damaging the figure.

    If I do a custom, Ill go all the way, thanks for noticing!

    Ironhide is a bit to tall for BB Optimus and I skiped on SS Optimus since I have seen how tiny he is compared to bee and Jazz (and BB Optimus is also a fair bit taller).
    I think TLK Voyager Optimus might be the correct scale with this group but i have not seen any pictures of them together.
    I will get a KO OS Hound (normal just slightly bigger version) caise I believe he might fit in quite well (and will be a blast to customize)
