    Where you've broken on the wheel (o' collecting) on the Macro scale, I have caved on the Micro, you see...
    ...with a somewhat similar thought process to the above I have gone and nabbed Two Cloudburst/Micronus (Microni?) and a Metalhawk from Notts Bots, just in case I have to make my own Waverider.
    You might ask, "Why three suits tho?"
    Well, my friends, I've been wracking my brains on how I might expand the ranks of my wee Pretenders on the Autobot side and I had a wave of the ol' brain - get deeper into the subgroup!
    Who else had a predominantly-red humanoid shell?

    This guy!

    And someone with a squared-off hemet?
    Possibly this fellow...

    Though I might change my mind on that yet.

    Giving six Autobot Prime Master Pretenders total, which evens out the Primes per faction (it would technically 7, yes, I know but my Metalhawk suit has been reassigned to being my only "Proper" Pretender with deluxe Metalhawk) because onyx is clearly aligned with the Decepticons, yeah? Hanging out with the Preds only! :p 

    Man, I'm gonna end up buying Predaking for his Prime, aren't it? Curse ye, Hasbro! (Not straight away though.;) )

    Just a quick one, but if anyone is a bit bored, I have written a brisk article on all of the WFC:Siege reveals from SDCC. There is a link to the article in my sig :) 

    Cheers!

    Mentioning in passing -- would anyone going to TFN fancy an individually boxed (and sealed) release Quantron for two hundred? (Or anyone else, with a bit for postage?)

    Trying to clear a bit before moving. PM if interested!

    Really would love to see an update to Beast Wars Neo Magmatron. Figure is good but it has some flaws.
