Ironhide and maybe it's because I spent a lot of time on him but I think Ratchet is underrated

 

Ah, Cannon Bumblebee: the first evolution of toy design where the roof of the car no longer sat as panels on the arm. Crazy how the basic schematic of Bumblebee Deluxe figures has evolved over time

 

Anyone have any comparison pics of SS Screamer with the CW leader Seeker mold (both bot and v modes)? Thinking of getting one, if Hasbro doesn’t make an SS Blitzwing

 

I would say wait for the siege screamer , would be more accurate, and probably a much better mold (only hear bad things about that leader jetfire mold)

 

My age of extinction cast......in my version of events ratchet and lead foot survived and were the only two that were left with optimus and bumblebee from the witwicky trilogy......also I would have kept bumblebee bee in his 67 camaro look instead of stealing stingers design (even though I really like it)

 

But I want the Earth jet though  

 

Nice Leadfoot custom! I plan to make the same group shot once I get home, but without Leadfoot since I don’t have him

 

Well... could get a ko MP starscream  

 

Picked up Studio Series Barricade. Looks good. Simple transformation. Very stable. But having owned the original deluxe one from 2007, this guy is really tiny. Hasbro figures have shrunked!

Oh and I did a simple stop motion of it too....

 

Finally saw Bumblebee! I liked it, especially the Cybertron scenes and scenes where Shatter and Dropkick were in (is it ok to be interested in these two than the titular character?). However, it falls flat in terms of spectacle, action and robot interaction. Still enjoyed it though. I wanna see more of this new series.

 

English review (sort of)!

Easily. Even if studio series figures aren't always great, they pretty much ALWAYS turn out better than their predecessors. Bonecrusher is a solid 7.5/10 for me, but the thrill of having a new one after so many years is bumping him up to an 8.5 right now.

When Bay sets up an awesome scene one of a few things can happen:

Good - they fight and it's one of the awesomest things ever seen

Decent - they fight or interact and it's a short scene, over too quickly

Bad - they cut away to something else happening, usually with humans, and the main thing is only in the background

Really Bad - they cut away and never reference the awesome scene you wanted to see and never speak of or see the characters again and it's a random 5 seconds and you're left very angry and blueballed

 

TonTon review has uploaded a new SS Bee movie Optimus review with AI voice lol

 

Eh, only the deluxes have really shrunk(even then there are some deluxes that are just as tall as they were 10 years ago), the voyagers have stayed the same and leaders have gotten a tad bit smaller, but much better engineered.

 

I guess you could say bonecrusher is feeling a little burnt out on them.

edit: i’m very hurt that you skipped one of my top tier jokes. not cool, man

 

So I'm looking at picking up the Arcee Sisters from ROTF.

I think they'd look nice with the rest of my Studio Series Autobots- it's good to have a few bizarre-looking bots in the display, just to break things up a tad. ^_^

Plus I just think they're really cool toys- they might not be able to do much, but their transformation is definitely neat.

 

QQ are the Bumblebee movie characters the Siege toys? or are there going to be different figures? I'm curious about the Soundwave and Ravage specifically.

 

Sorry if this has been brought up already. I thought about making a new thread for this, but perhaps it's better to post it here.

I searched if there was a way to deal with MPM Ironhide's shoulder issues, and found this video. I might actually buy this thing now, since I was put off.

 

I really want a Starscream with the 2007 deco, so do I get the Dream Factory KO of the MPM or the OS Studio Series version? They both look so similar!
