Are there any characters you'd be happy with a non-transforming MP scale action figure of?

    The FT Fortress Maximus thread got me thinking about this. My nostalgia is based on the Marvel comics. In these FM was quite a key player, so I want him for my collection; however, he was much smaller than depicted in the cartoons, so I'm out for the FT version. But it got me thinking... I like alt. modes of something recognisable, so stuff like base modes never looked like anything decent to me. Scorponok at least had a scorpion mode, but FM just had two modes that looked like different piles of junk... to me at least. So I'd be very happy with a highly articulated and detailed action figure of FM, as I would never have any interest in his alt. modes.

    What characters, if any, would you be happy with just the figure/'bot mode for?

    Every combiner. I have no attachment to any of the individual bots that comprise each gestalt, but I would love to have 20-22" action figures of their combined forms for display.

    This may sound kinda silly, but I wish MP TFs came with a Hot Wheels scaled alt mode of the character. That way you could display the bot but also see what it transforms into...I realize it’s a little off topic but just a thought.

    Alpha Trion and Nightbird are the only ones which come to mind.

    I'd be all about a super-articulated non-transforming Grimlock. Just to have as a standalone

    Unicron & any combiners really. Toss them pesky stability and articulation issues right out the fuckin' winder.
