    I had not seen this lucky draw before and googled it. Sixshot is so sexy in black! 1 figure proving black repaints are not bad!

    Was Sixshot part of 2010 in Japan or was he just Headmasters?

    That is utter balderdash. Menasor looks as great as all the other black Hot Rods. It's just easier to get away with trashing a Titanium in the fandom.

    Lol. The beginning of that first post reminds me of the Rick James skit of the Chappelle Show...

    That's all I really have to say about sensible black repaints.

    I for one love black repaints with the exception of dark skyfire. God that was terrible.

    The best thing about black repaints is you don't need to buy them. Although I feel the need too myself. The other good thing about black repaints is if they are too pricey or don't exist, they are well easy to make yourself. My first customs were black TF's.

    Absolutely baffling logic and grammar aside, I love black repaints that are actually separate characters and not just just black Optimus Prime or black Rodimus.

    Scourge is still the best "Nemesis Prime."

    And anyone who hates Skywarp because he is repaint is immediately discredited.

    I think he does this on purpose. Now he will completely ignore what everyone says about the opening part of his post.

    Clearly, he's made of stern stough, Mr. PoweredConvoy, to make it that far through such a baffling post!

    (And yes, that's meant as a genuine compliment.)

    I'm starting to wonder if he posts something...odd on purpose just to screw with the rest of us and see what kind of reactions he gets. I think that makes me feel better about these threads than the notion that he really believes what he types.

    Well, I like the "Stealth" versions of Bumblebee. I hope they make a Human Alliance version, hehe. :)
