    Studio series.
    best is easily jetfire or blackout. (Shockwave might change that thought).

    I got an idea if some 3P company ever does a an upgrade kit for SS Devy.
    Whoever does It first could use:

    For Scavenger:
    -The wires on the back of Devastator
    -Missile launchers
    -two panels that can cover the exposed wheel in alt mode, and could be used like the O&K panels in combiner mode.

    For scrapper:
    -The chains with the hooks (see devil savior scrapper)

    For Long Haul:
    -Better and painted missiles
    -the swords from the rotf toy and game.

    For Hightower:
    -His crane and wires

    For mixmaster:
    -His cannon

    He really does look awesome. Good luck with the rest of the process, you have done a fantastic job so far!
    I think all the leader class figures are great, but my favourite would either be Jetfire or DOTM Optimus.

    Jetfire is a lot of fun and Shockwave seems to be great as well

    I think Jetfire and Grimlock are overall the best, followed closely by Blackout.

    Jetfire is just an incredible realization of the on-screen model, and so vastly improved over the previous version. His proportions are perfect and he has virtually no kibble!

    Grimlock is also incredible for basically the same reasons. Plus, he has a terrific paint job.

    Thank you! I'll post again once inking is complete.

    TBH the only leader I don't love so far is megatron. He's cool because of the cape and stuff but overall he's pretty "eh" to me. The transformation isn't fun either and the vehicle mode doesn't feel worth it in the end. Grimlock needed the DNA kit to really shine but I had a lot of fun with him even before that came out. Blackout is amazing and Jetfire is fun as hell, especially with the combining thing. Just wish he had hands that could close.

    Well of the five out the only one I don't have is Jetfire. I'm really biased towards Blackout, I have nostalgia toward that design and it's a fantastic figure overall.
    Still I think they're all winners in their own ways. Grimlock has a fantastic paint job, Megatron really does a great job looking like the on-screen design and DOMT Optimus, with all the stuff he comes with, is a lot of fun to mess around with!

    Also just noticed an oddity on my SS44 Optimus, the backdrop doesn't have the word "Studio series" on the leftmost flap... how odd.

    I have my old AOE Crosshairs, but thanks for offering though!! But I don't know, I don't think those feet are quite, so I'm gonna try and fiddle with RB's feet... But first I'll have to find a junker, cause my son's not giving up his RB lol.
    This looks really awesome!! I can't believe that we're getting these test shots back to back from all the Cons!! I wonder how fast we'll get them??

    So tell me guys, how'd I do with the visor upgrade? This is the first time I ever painted a figure.
