    I have, but I still think it looks silly and I kinda wish they'd just given him normal arms in robot mode.

    Nope. I asked the designers when I was there, and he said all of the Dinobots were finished retail versions. Some of the alt modes shown were painted because they didn't have enough finished versions to display everyone in both modes.

    At least that means a blue Swoop presumably instead of the red one shown in the art. ;)

    I'll just swipe the sword from my Platinum FOC Grimlock. He's going in the bin anyways.

    I hope they add some stuff the the display tomorrow morning. I want to see Screamers combine mode, and not just the cropped artwork from the box.

    Honestly Combiner Wars it was just a reality of what they needed to do, these are totally avoidable.

    That's because they actually censored his head with a Con logo.

    Just a little manipulation I did in photoshop to show how Slash could have looked female without wide hips, super curves, or boob shapes. Would have been fine for her to have a body-builder physique, Chun-Li shape, or be a hefty chunker too. I just think the figure would have looked cooler more like this and could have made for a slimmer raptor mode with a bit of retooling on some dino parts to go with it.

    Shockwave is a disservice to men. How am I supposed to recognize him as male when he's purple and only has one eye?

    extra HFGs can be plugged into the back of the feet for added stability.

    Well, we all have our opinions. I don't think what is coming out looks recognizably female at all, unless she's supposed to look like a female ape.
    If the raptor body wasn't so fat looking thinner raptor legs wouldn't look so bad. I did say "with some retooling". Add an extra joint in the lower raptor legs/bot arms and those thinner raptor legs could actually look more like a raptor's bird-like legs, and a longer raptor neck would help too.
    Also, did you not see how silly Grimlock's T-rex mode's legs look?

    I kinda think your attempted point blows because his look and character is way more robotic than humanoid, yet he still has a wide chest, big arms, wide shoulders, and small hips. Looks like a fairly male bot to me.
    I didn't say all bots need any particular type of body anyway. Just saying there aren't many fem-bots so I'd prefer to see more that look somewhat female, like most of the male bots look at least somewhat male. I was only stating my opinion/preference.

    I can\'t see any way to improve that torso, damn. Still great individually though.
