    Yeah, and you can be sure as soon as we have some new shots my avatar will change once again. Truly can't wait.

    Whatever's the least work for you pal! It's just amazing what you've taken the time to do already, we're all super grateful.

    So any guesses as to the official mp number? I believe that he will be mp-45. Keeping with the 5 theme. Lol

    Sorry for a slightly off-topic interjection, but for anyone who may be interested, in light of some of the recent conversations about the place of digibashes in news forums, and because @deruberhanyok has me wanting to do a G2 Ramjet :)  , I've started a thread in the Fan Art forum for Masterpiece-related digibashes HERE. So far I've just added all of the ones I've posted to this thread and I'd love to have everyone else's in there too, but unlike @BrutiKing I'm too lazy to compile them ;)  So please feel free to re-post them there if you want, or ask me to and I'll do it. Or if you don't care about such a thread, that's fine too!!! I guess I'll still decide on a case-by-case basis whether something OPv3-related I make warrants being posted here too.

    My gosh, it's amazing how you could go through that much and still have such a positive attitude. I'll be on here to listen (I guess read) anytime! Small consolation I'm sure, but if it helps even a tiny bit, I hope to have some more amateurish truck mode digibashes soon if we don't get official colored photos!
    I'm sticking with MP-45 as well!

    And it looks like there will be three different MPM Primes coming at some point..there has to be, if the bumblebee movie bumblebee gets made, so gotta expect a BB movie MPM of Prime..so if you think about it. Your display would be even..

    Sweet! Already checked it out and following, thanks!:cool: 

    One has to stay positive, but I do have a supporting family, which helps tremendously. But when there are others who don't even have that, and they stay positive, it just blows my mind with their level of mental fortitude.
    :bay

    When I find some more time, I’ll make sure to add anything new to your digibash posts! Just DM me your newest ones that you’d like me to add and I’ll do it if it isn’t really unreasonable (I doubt that would happen). Man, I’m exhausted...

    So when I first saw pictures of this guy I thought “no, I like MP10 better”. I don’t know what’s happened, if it’s the lack of new G1 molds, or my tastes shifting to the new cartoon aesthetic, but this figure is looking better and better the more I look at him. I’m really dreading seeing the official pictures, falling in love with it, and then getting gut punched by the more than likely $300+ price tag

    I'm still trying to figure out how the BD parts are going to be implemented on this guy, most importantly on the oblique section. Megatron really did a number there, that cut was deep.

    I'm also curious about that. And if he will come with the shard that damaged that section? I suppose we will have to wait to see.

    Well sorry Mr Fun Police. Pinktimus Purple Prime gave me a nice grin in the middle of a not so good day, and I don't see the problem with that. Sorry you can't just enjoy the fun of it or simply take a few extra seconds to scroll past them

    Dude... You're coming across as super unlikable. Just wanted you to know. You acted aggressively, and when someone dared to disagree with you, you acted defensive and rude.

    I'm not arguing with the points you made, I'm arguing with the way you made them. I guess my wording didn't get that across the way I intended. I am sorry about that. I'm sure you're having a bad day & you're venting some frustration or something. I get it. Where are you getting the term "Snowflake" from? I do kind of take issue with that. I don't think any point was made by any of us meriting the term "Snowflake". Maybe you're the one who can't read properly. lol.

    Agreed - wish people would just STFU about anything unrelated to V3 frankly. This also doesn’t need to become a place for people to defend free speech and all that nonsense.

    If I don’t like a digibash or photo I will just scroll past it, but the reality is that even the worst of digibashes would be considerably better than anything I can achieve - so I do the polite thing and shut my damn mouth.

    As for V3, I sincerely wish that we had some news. I won’t be holding you to your offer to buy everyone a V3 BTW hahaha, so that’ll save some pennies heheh.

    i Like the digibashes considering the fact that Takara is giving us nothing. There’s only so much discussion about the price or the accessories that can happen before it gets repetitive. My advice to people who don’t like scrolling through this and are just looking for news, just check the news section instead
