    I was able to get a 2nd Moonracer and I ordered 2 Takara Novastars. I don't like the look of the other limbs on Elita-Infinite (?, what's her official combined name again?). I was really hoping for four different FemmeBots/limbs to make the combiner but that obviously not happening in the line so I'll make due with what we got. I thought about using the copter sisters from Victorion but I don't have that set so I'd have to track down just the two figures.

    I'm not sure if I want to swap heads around or something to make individual characters out of the doubles I'll be getting of Moonracer and Novastars. Or I may simply head-canon them having the ability to twin/clone/split themselves into two limbs when in combined mode.

    If you got all the retail CW deluxes and the online exclusives You can chose between Rook, Alpha Bravo, Groove and Slingshot. I'm using Rook and Impactor for some symmetry and extra height.

    What's going on with Victorion? Where's the rest of her sword?

    Really enjoying these new Primemasters. Both Abominus and Galvatronus have benefited from them! :ev:

    Looking forward to getting Punch-Counterpunch off of Amazon. Still haven't found Novastar yet. :(

    So a question to those that own the PotP fembots... are Novastar and Elita-1 the same shade of red? i kind of wamt the different fembots for the combined mode be different colors..
    Yes. all the yes. Definitely need the hands/feet upgrade with them, too!
    been wanting a better magnaboss for a while....
    such primitive beasts, you all! taking hammers to it!
    *revs chainsaw*
    im my case, i can go two ways....

    1. Custom Chromia and Arcee, to homage the RoTF femcycle combiner that never happened, and even have arcee have purple as her colorscheme.

    2. new fembots using extra victorion limbs i got.

    Loving the infinite white background on this. This would go down a storm in 'super-cleah-pics' thread.

    Ugh, can't come soon enough!

    I do believe the slightest bit of gunmetal paint to darken his face makes a biiiiiiiig difference. I was having trouble seeing "Starscream" with such a light silver face.
    Just purchased some Shapeways upgrades and this pile of turd is on it's way to being a decent figure!!!!

    The dark color on his face looks like it's washing out his eyes. That of lighting.

    Was so excited to find Solus Prime today . Didn’t see her wave mates though. At least that’s one less missing Prime Master I have to worry about.
