    Wasn't planning to get this until I saw it in the store and fell in love with it. Has two things going for it:
    1) The light gray on his upper body and bright red on his sides/elbows are exactly what I think of for a Megatron. Darker gray/more muted red, foh; this is the good stuff far as I'm concerned.
    2) The shading on his bicep pipes that make it look like they're casting a shadow is a weirdly excellent little detail. Does way more for me than the cel streaks. Would love to see that kind of thing on non-animationy figures.

    I found the 35th anniversary wave at my local Walmart at lunch time. Looks like it had been stocked pretty recently. I grabbed a Bluestreak. Yay!

    I’m thinking of creating a custom deluxe size class rung/primus based off the siege rung anyone know what figure might have a good head-sculpt to start from? I’m gonna be using generations wheelie for the body.

    New GX Studio kits:
    Impactor gap fillers, leg armor, and new cannon (all painted)
    【Pre-Order】GX-05 Uptrade Kit for WFC Siege Impactor ( Upgrade Kit+ Gap Fillers)
    image_859ccbd3-4351-4e64-828c-6dbbcc1d052a_1024x1024.jpg

    Seekers null rays (painted to match non-Rainmakers or unpainted available). Also plugs in under nose area.

    image_10df3215-b615-4253-90ce-e7c4a1a8f8a6_1024x1024.jpg

    I don't have Impactor so not planning on that one. I have not tried a GX Studio kit yet, but I may end up getting some Seeker null rays to try out. I'm thinking it's possible to even plug in 6 blasters total with these on one Seeker (in combination with stock ones).

    Large just means you get 2 heads. This head is meant for deluxe sized figures. You’d also have to make sure that the wheelie body has a 4mm neck ball joint.

    Does anyone know where you can store Countdown when Omega Supreme is in bot mode? I have him sitting on his shoulder but I'm dubious that's the best place for him. Don't want him getting lost.

    Inside lower legs, tank, or rocket. You can also store all the blast effects in his various areas and possibly a small sandwich.
