    I wish earthrise Optimus didn’t have the grey vent in his chest. It’s not necessary.

    First of all, I love the lighting you used in these pics. Second, it's hard for me to bash Hasbro when I look at the line up they've given us in the last couple of years, and these pics are a great reminder.

    Thanks bud. Truth is i only use whatever lighting is available. This was at night in the kitchen. Plus my only working camera is the selfie side of my phone which is a pain in the ass to use.

    I'm hoping santa brings me a good camera

    The way you have cog setup on the shoulders, makes me wonder if when Takara does that armada prime thats in the works, if they'll adapt cog or some of the others like that into an overload retool

    Sideswipe he likes at present the most but G2/ or clone Sideswipe (as he calls it) is probably mine it looks so cool.. but red is how I always remember him and it's way cheaper so if I had to get just one that's the one.

    Well, to bring in some partsforming anger here...

    Finally got Siege UM and boy, oh, boy does he remind me why I dislike partsforming. Now, to be clear, I think he’s a very quality figure like the majority of Siege. My issue is more the concept of UM being a bot who has partsforming armor.

    Taking all the pieces apart and then back together for transformation is so unpleasant. It is not the type of play design I like with Transformers. I want a cohesive figure I can hold entirely in my hands, not something that makes a puzzle piece mess. It reminded me why I pretty much never transformed my Fansproject City Commander.

    Mini rant aside, I like the size variation UM brings tucked in with the other Siege Autobots.
