    You should look at your autobots and decepticons... Get Shockwave if you have more autobots, Magnus if you have more decepticons. Both are good.

    Nice.

    So these are finally out. I thought about them to spruce up my comics some. May decide to build a Decepticon HQ with them.

    Ultra Magnus. So much toy. So much heft. Cartoon Magnus would be jealous of MP Magnus.

    Class shot, love that pic! Really good use of perspective with two very differently sized figures.

    Took this one last night, it works quite well as a "before the fight" shot!

    Made room for Stomp and Forager. I know it isn't official but I am still excited about it and there is plenty of MP in the pic. ;)

    I know this probably isn't the right place to ask, but, I only tend to post pics of MP's so here goes....

    Can anybody recommend a good iPAD/iPhone app for me to upload pics to, which will also allow you to copy the BB code from for easy posting here?

    I used to use imgupr which was excellent but it's stopped working, and the alternatives I've tried only let me post traditional links rather than [​IMG]

    I upload to flickr from iphone and then go to the site to get the url. An app isn't even necessary. Though I would also like to be able to copy direct from a app.

    Thanks, and had tried Flickr, but I don't want to be jumping between apps and website, too lazy! Plus I think it only gave me access to "camera roll" on the iPad but I need "photo stream".

    Imgupr was great, just upload picture, press share, press BB code and paste onto forum reply...simples!

    Awesome set-up, Rev! I'm so jealous of your four Detolfs. I'm officially out of space in my two with the onslaught of recent releases and had to assemble the Dinobots up on the roof above the cases because of the behemoth Stomp.

    One from me. Thundercracker is so cool. ;)

    Jealous? I'm jealous of your bad guys. Who knows how long before Takara makes official Insecticons and Reflector.

    Thanks! I like the way you have Reflector displayed. I may steal that. Looks good with TC.

    I don't have a lot of third party stuff, but I feel bad for the Takara purists who don't get to enjoy Reflector or Sludge right now. I'm not starting a flame war. This isn't pity. I respect you guys. So don't be mad at me. I just honestly don't envy the wait you have. But I suppose it will be all the more sweet.

    Rev, you get a hug.

    I am loving watching 3P releases. The Dinobots have been a painful temptation. But the mainline, and its pace, is all I can afford. Not to mention, the extra cost of potentially buying the same (premium) figure twice.

    That said, I love all the photos folks share of their integrated cross company collections. There are so many amazing representations of these characters! Pretty crazy!
