    I am planning on selling my Human Alliance Bumblebee and Sideswipe, as I may have mentioned. I took them both to work today as I'd probably find more time there to snap pics and transform them. Only got as far as TFing Bee to bot mode...it had kind of slipped my mind how lovely that toy was. Pretty gorgeous and still works for me as a definitive Movie Bee, upcoming Masterpiece or not.

    All the best

    those things transform now?
    suddenly the "titan" figures seem a lot less pointless.

    picked up HA roadbuster for $8 yesterday. missing his goofy gun but i didn't need it.

    he's a pain in the ass to transform, yikes. lots of tight fitting tabs that you have to worm into places carefull. doesn't help that he doesn't have an actual car mode to aim for so it's kind of a crap shoot where things go lol

    also picked up tlk prime today. first full-priced/main retail purchase since... shit, dotm, probably? awesome toy though. love the transformation tricks. like galvatron but cooler.

    kind of ironic, i got them both to turn into movie versions of rodimus. gotta find an appropriate head for them though

    The impending swarm would like a word with you. :p  :D  (I'm not crazy about the original HA BB)

    He's here!!! Holy crap he's here, and flippin' gorgeous!! Now I just need to get a set of M1 Abrams decals, anyone know if 1/35 is the appropriate scale? That's the best I could figure this guy's size, just from estimation...

    Two figures with some paint touch ups.

    When people say that MPM Bee is too slightly too tall, this is what I think of in terms of shortening him.

    Now, keeping in mind I brought the wrong figure partner for Sideswipe (Epps is hanging out with Jazz currently at home) and the missile is buried in my parts bin at home also....

    ...I am selling these two if anyone's interested!

    All the best

    I'm not quite sure how I feel about these new movie MPs? On one had, who doesn't want the most accurate, detailed version of a character? But seeing as I have a bunch of movie toys that are (kinda) in scale already, I don't really need another Bumblebee to take place of the ones I have. It's not like they're gonna redue every movie character in this new MP scale. I feel like having deluxe cars and Leader Prime works better in alt mode at least, I don't mind if they aren't exact. Plus, I don't see MP movie Prime as being better than my Asia Striker or Buster Prime in alt mode anyways. I'm sure I'll buy them though, just not to replace what I currently have. Idk, what do you guys think?

    I have a lot of love for HA Sideswipe (even if I'm nearly the only one). I recently put him away for pretty much the first time ever due to lack of shelf space and Side Arm Sideswipe just being cooler and a little more detailed- but he's great!

    He is a great figure, I agree. REALLY liked the black one too. Sales are out of necessity and shortage of space I guess, no slight against what has been one of my favourite lines ever.

    Double Whoa!

    I wish the leader had an arm cannon like the voyager.

    My only gripe with voyager Megatron is the hinge on his cannon.

    This may seem like a dumb question, but did DF fix the issue where the backpack sags to the side due to not locking in place? I recall that being kind of a nuisance on the original leader class
