    Mate, we all get you want a BB shockwave. But for gods sake you need to stop whining about it on this thread.
    Great photography as always! Loving that low light.

    My second SS Longhaul arrived today - straight into footmode with my other duplicate combiners.

    Also got the SS DotM leader Prime figure too. The orange metallic paint job on him really improves the figure over the previous release. Simple but a great addition.
    Speaking of simple the trailer is another nice addition that while basic works perfectly, albeit surprising it has two static wheels at the rear. Are things that bad for Hasbro they can’t have all working wheels lol?
    The weirdest bit of the set is his shield. It’s odd peg choice makes it great for making Optimus look like he is using the shield as a melee weapon, but as a shield, it’s a bit useless. Anyone come up with a fix for that?

    Don’t know how I’m going to cram an eventual 10th figure on this shelf whenever it happens but we’ll cross that bridge when we get there

    I'm trying to keep my Studio Series collection to characters that appeared in the movies as well as any major changes they had. For example, I have the Movie Ratchet and DOTM Ratchet because the changes were significant (new paint scheme). The same applies for example to Starscream, Megatron and even Bumblebee. However, I'm unsure about Optimus. I know that he didn't change for the first 2 movies. For DOTM, I know that he had the abs and all of his weapons were handheld. Does anyone know if these were the only major changes?

    Try putting Megatron on the edge of the self so half os his massive wing-span isn't taking up space

    DOTM Optimus also got new elbow spikes that are shaped more like sporks instead of boxcutters like in '07 and ROTF, but that doesn't matter toy-wise as the SS mold has hood kibble in place of those details.

    If you wanna justify getting more than one Optimus, you can say SS-05 is him in '07, SS-32 is for combining with Jetfire, and SS-44 is for using the Jetwing flight tech. ;)

    I ask only because if those are the only changes then I'll just sell off the the 2007 version and get the DOTM version. Also, would you by chance happen to have pics of those elbow spikes?

    Just got in the DNA upgrade kit in today for Masterpiece Iron Hide. Makes it a much better figure.

    Really hoping they announce a Rachet for next year. Only one left, it would make sense.

    I would but I want to keep them in order. Otherwise I’d have it in an order akin to autobots-decepticons-extraneous bumblebees

    Speaking of, anyone want SS-32 Optimus? He's complete and also comes with the swords from SS-05 Optimus.

    I was tginking of possibly using certain legos that have a swivel type feature for the shield. I'll keep working on it!!! But yes he is a great figure(minus a few things)

    Some AoE love in altmode. 20190921_203231.jpg 20190921_203309.jpg

    I know he's onky based in concept art and did't appear in the movies, but I would love a SS Hot Rod based on this design. Could even be a Car Dropkick retool. 20190921_203419.jpg
