    I really do like the triceratops mold. Little bit of kibble but still better than most movie figures

    Fun pics. Between you and the guy who posted Killerpunch getting eaten, I now have the Jurassic Park theme stuck in my head.

    Why don't you like Scarem? He always looked like one of the better TM2 basics to me. Granted I don't own one so I cannot judge it for myself.

    Oh transmetal Inferno is fun. I wasn't super happy to get him as a kid. I wanted to get a mega class toy but I didn't want to get Primal or Megatron so Scavenger it was.

    Mostly it's the lack of articulation. Sonar is similar, but she has grown on me. I'm pretty sure I used to have her, and didn't like her, but she's actually quite cool. I just wish the arms were hinged. Scarem needs the same for his arms, but nothing can help the legs be more poseable.

    Just about anything is better than the movie figures if you ask me.

    Thanks, it's the orignal.

    I am actually on a JP spree myself right now, if my new wig is any indication. :D 

    I would...but I don't have the money right now. :(

    Some awesome pics in the last few posts!

    I know Lio Convoy gets some flak due to odd placement of animal parts in robot mode, but I'm still a fan of the figure.

    I took these pics recently of the black variety...

    I think Lio Convoy looks badass, the black one even more

    I've always wanted one but can never find one for a price I like. I have no attachments to the character like I do the US cast so its hard for me to pull the trigger.

    If it wasn't for the mane blocking half his face, I'd probably get one. Bad design.

    No offense to those of you who post pictures, but can you pick a favourite one or two for each post, then maybe just add a link to an online gallery?

    What I don't get is the blue claws. Black and silver are a good combo, no doubt about it, but why blue?

    As Botcon etches closer the want for the Predacus boxset gets even stronger. My only worry is that if I don't try and get it soon that it will go DOFP on ebay by the end of the year. Does anyone else fear this too?
