    Same. It was what gave me the idea that it could work with the beetle version.

    Lol. You get a like for the Bobby Bolivia quote. I remember you saying you had been doing paintwork on your Ironhide, and Bee is obvs a custom, but I don't remember seeing your Jazz looking so nice. You've done a real sweet job on those.

    I dont need luck as i can simply skip all TF movie toys from all 5 bay movies, saving money for other TF toys.
    I'm not saying that these new toys are looking bad as they are more accurate to the movie design than the initial releases.
    But why should i buy toys from movies that i don't like anymore from a director who smacked the face of old transformers hardcore fans?
    Let's see whether Takara or a third party manufacturer produces detailed figures of the new Bumblebee movie. Shockwave, Soundwave, Optimus and the seakers looked quite cool in the trailer.

    Finally decided to open him so I decided to take comparison shots anyway. Kinda miss the charm of the “Rescue Fire” sign on the side of the vehicle, but otherwise yeah SS is way better. 2BAB9766-1817-4C5D-8185-54E30C032FFA.jpeg E906D966-C85D-4574-8F16-EE26C5D6088C.jpeg 5BDC7D69-988E-4873-BB98-50EF381918DE.jpeg FC8375AD-4F94-4C7D-99C1-FBB4E6F86F50.jpeg EC559186-C09C-4A61-8DDF-1F48CA3E9820.jpeg

    Better question is: why are you in this thread?
    I second this.

    Bonus pic of MPM-07 cause he looks great with the eyes painted and the bumper mod:

    If this is a closed case then I am sorry for bringing this up. Meisterman has done us a service by adding a few comparison shots of SS Ratchet and DOTM Ratchet. So, thank you Meisterman. Scrutinize the details at your own leisure. This by no means changes YOUR definition of "retool" since you admit to being stubborn but you will see that they are completely different molds.

    Nooice. You are a humanitarian.

    I was looking at siege shockwave's size and thinking maybe any other large characters can be pulled off as a small leader class.

    They have already pulled off large characters in the form of large voyagers. Prime Predaking Ver. 2 and SS ROTF megatron, come to mind. Don't need all the extra parts that ends up inflating the cost. I am sure after buying the siege shockwave, I will have his extra parts stored in a Ziplock baggie.

    For how active you are in this thread, you really don’t seem to talk or joke to other people much, most of the time you’re just saying random thoughts that you had.

    Why don't they just make a "black Mamba scale" for figures like Blackout, Screamer and Jetfire.. then they can use leaderclass for figures that need to be scaled better like Prime and Megs?
