    Since I'll most likely skip the Voyager Ironhide as I think (unless reviews/photos convince me otherwise... I know it isn't accurate but in my head Ratchet is the second tallest then Ironhide) he will be far too big... the Movie 1 Cast!

    Now I just need them to do a Studio Series Sideswipe

    Saleen. Saleen modifies cars in the case of the Mustang, they have Ford's support so their upgrades to the Mustang won't void the Ford warranty. You can even buy a Saleen Mustang at a select few Ford dealerships.

    Edit: I misread the question. TLK was a Ford sorry.

    I use HFTD Ironhide too! He's my stand-in until SS Ironhide hits the UK shelves. As for Sideswipe, I don't think i'll be replacing my Sidearm Sideswipe anytime soon. I love that thing.

    I've got a question. I was reading about the Aoe evasion Optimus figure on tfwiki and I came across this.

    f046fcf0-2e89-4cbe-bdc4-4db816c1b187~01~01.png

    It says his gun can be stored under his shoulder, but I've been looking at the figure and I can't seem to find any way to store his gun in bot mode except in his hand. Does anyone else know?

    Saw these on Instagram. They make him look extra awesome and it’s really good to finally have confirmation of the ankle tilts which NO ONE ELSE who has had the toy in-hand has seemed to notice.

    They also already had a license for the Suburban for the Dreads in the previous movies, and since Chevy is still a large sponsor with Bee's Camaro, I'm sure it was easy for them to get again.

    Exactly. Ford didn't want their original vehicle associated with the bad guys, so...

    Mercedes also had an agreement with the filmmakers that, while their cars could be evil characters, they were not allowed to be shown killing any of the good guys. Hence Bumblebee's plot armor of Soundwave apparently not choosing him to be the first to go in the hostage scene, despite him having killed two of his pets. You'll also notice that the Autobots also had a Mercedes on their side, to balance things out.

    Very unlikely, but do you predict a studio series jeep Bumblebee?

    I've had Studio Series Jazz for a month now, and I still fiddle with him at my workspace everyday. Think he just might be my favorite movie toy ever.

    His car mode compacts nicely which makes him ultra portable as well.

    Everybody needs a SS Jazz in their life. :)

    Not that I hope for one. I couldn't care less if they made another Bumblebee.

    What's the lowdown on Superion? I've seen reviews, and he doesn't seem mind-blowing, but I'm a sucker for combiners and the movie toys.
