Too bad Lugnut is anything but a failure, he's EXTREMELY show accurate, articulated for a bulky guy, has his weapon, nice paint apps and fun AND THE KIDS gonna be just fine with the big villain not being as big, they only care about throwing him around the room anyway.

 

i was talking about scale-i guess i didnt make that too clear. but he did fail scalewise compared to all other figures except mini Bulkhead, but he is at least getting a bigger guy

and THE KIDS will prbably be like "this is the big scary guy?" cause i know thats what my 5 year old sister and our 6 year old neighbor (boy) said

 

Yeah like I'll trust the "MY _________ SAID" thing.

If kids cared about scale, there's no way any of the Activator toys ever would sell.

And if the kids cared about scale they would still get Lugnut because of the fact he's the biggest Voyager in vehicle mode, which the kids would see in the store and say "WOW MOM GET ME THIS BIG GUY!"

That is, IF they get a chance of seeing Lugnut, as I know I'm getting all of 'em and making Lugwarp, Lugcracker, Lugrust, Lugjet and Lirge.

 

ANIMATED CRACK!!!!!
I want it so bad, I can taste it!!!!

 

I'm almost sure you're not supposed to taste crack, but whatever.

 

hes tiny man. even in vehicle mode. he is supposed to be the massive one, the Hulk-remember that comparison? well, im not sure what the opposite of the hulk would be, but that is how i would describe him-he is far too small in both modes. riculously small-i think even Bumblebee is taller than him, though i could be wrong. all i know is that he should get a Leader toy later in the line.

 

That's what I read...

I am looking forward to getting him; I don't care about scale.

You are right as far as scale, but again, I could care less IMO. I remember being a kid, I didn't care about scale other than the big city-bots (metroplex, Fort Max). Otherwise, I really don't think most kids think about it. My little brothers don't.

BFT. Also,   @ The last sentence!

 

activators sell cause they are cheep and some kids cant transform the big ones.

and i usually dont care about scale-its just this one guy-hes in the top 3 tallest, is defonately the bulkiest, but gets shunned down to a very tiny toy-i just dont think that Hasbro was too smart when they did that, unless they do like with Bulkhead and release a less show accurate but more in scale Transformer, but they arent even planning to do that! now voyager Lugnut is really cool, and ill get him for sure, but im gonna feel so bad for him-he'll barely be able to see higher than anyone elses exhaust port

 

I want to get Lugnut, because you lnow what? Bulkhead needs someone to fight. Scale hardly bothers me. Besides, I would never let something like scale ruin a fig or an entire line for me.

 

Yeah, I'm really not sure what the deal is with this as we've really never had a line where all the figures are perfectly in scale. Sure I'd like a Leader Lugnut, but with the movie Decpeticons it's probably not going to happen (and if it does it'll be awhile) so I'll just purchase the Voyager version anyways.

 

That's my thinking as well. At first I was unsure about getting Voyager Bulkhead and just waiting for the Leader class, but with Lugnut basically being in scale with the big(little) guy. I want to get both. Plus they are all awesome. I'm not sure, but it looks like I'm going to end up getting most of this line, but I'm cool with. I'm much more happy to get most of Animated than I was of say A/E/C.


I just need to figure out where I want to display them and wondering if I should move either my movie figs or Classics to some other shelf. I was thinking about display space moreso because I don't want all my stuff in the way of my girlfriend's stuff. But that's not so much an issue now.

 

they are EVERYWHERE up here in canada land! i'm sure one of us can help.

I just got Soundwave off ebay. can't wait till October

 

I want them too...

Oh yeah... THIS! Yay Canada!!!

I'm still waiting to see Megatron, but have snagged the deluxes so far.
