    I really do hope he is shorter than Jazz.. 10 feet tall means he is about the size of the Twins..
    And that means they could reshell/reuse the mould to make both Skids and Mudflap!

    Just throw in an arm cannon like on Bee and a Chromia or a Elita-1 with them and save Arcee as an extra on SS Sideswipe (i can dream right)

    Haven't all the MP Autobot cars so far been licensed? I just assumed Hound would be too. It's funny how MP 10 and MPM 4 are both unlicensed, though I'm sure Freightliner and Peterbilt would license them now (AOE Galvatron was a licensed Frieghtliner and I think Peterbilt would agree the series had been more successful than they anticipated).

    Yeah we haven't gotten a great look at the back yet so I'm not sure how difficult it's going to be, but I hope it's doable.

    Do you have him right out of the box or have you transformed him a couple times and figured out how to properly peg in the kibble? Right out the box he's mistransformed.

    I recommend Cogman. I don't know about AOE Galvatron.

    I recommend getting Cogman as well. Galvatron's leg articulation is not that good imo.

    I'm thinking I might exchange my SS Brawl for him. Brawl just isn't doing it for me. Bot mode looks really good, but between the turret dick, the non-turning turret in tank mode, and the fact that his turret doesn't sit flush with the tank when it's pegged in as it's supposed to be, he's just leaving a sour taste in my mouth. Plus, I've still got the old Leader version, so I really don't need him. At least with Starscream, I could recreate the Forest Battle scene with some cheating.

    Can't speak for Cogman, but I have the Takara version of Galvatron, and he's OK. With more paint than the Hasbro version, he looks a little better.

    Do you guys think it's safe to display figures on my windowsill where the sunlight is directly facing it? I want to put my ROTF Prime on my windowsill but the sun heats up the glass and the surface quite a bit, so i'm worried the warmth will warp the plastic or fade the paint. Is this going to happen or am I just overthinking?

    I’d say that’s a big no no. Warping I don’t think would be an issue, but sunlight will ruin the colors. I had a couple figures sitting in one of my windowsills, but it wasn’t in direct sunlight. Nevertheless I still found some slight fading.

    Yeah, I absolutely would avoid doing that. Too much sunlight will fade the colors and may make the plastic more brittle. When I still had my collection up, I would actually put my shade down in the morning to keep the sun off of it, even though it was only for a little bit at a time.

    Oh my god Ratchet's bio mentions Sentinel. Do you think this could be a hint that theres an SS Sentinel Prime coming or am I just looking into it way too much
