    I would pay to see this movie. Him wandering the spacelanes in the Ark, plundering. Runs into bounty hunters and Swerve's Cantina.

    To chime in on the sentinel discussion.....he is an interesting character. He clearly doesn’t align himself with the decepticons or their ideals. He also shows this when he spares Optimus....he could have killed him outright but he wanted Optimus to listen to reason.....it’s also argued that he could have been right when you look at what happens in the latter two movies....Optimus fought for his cause and it bit him ( most autobots getting killed by humans and his race hated )....had he accepted sentinels offer you could argue that they might still be alive....sentinel clearly had no intention of keeping Megatron alive after he got what he wanted....so while sentinels methods were completely off the rails....it could be understood from a certain point of view.

    I just realized that the pic I posted last night wasn't complete. And because I'm somewhat of a perfectionist, here's this 20200525_223451-01.jpeg

    I agree with this. In the end, Optimus transformed his views (killing humans no longer off limits) and look (sword and shield with bigger shoulder pads) to nearly match Sentinel's. Optimus didn't want to enslave humanity though.

    All the traits of a good movie villain.
    I see what you did there.

    Dammit Sentinel, do I have to set aside a shelf just for you?

    I have nothing to add to the discussion. I'm just here to say that this post was fascinating to read and brought up some very compelling questions.

    Plus that photo is just gorgeous!

    As much as I despise Sentinel, I can't help but have my eyes glued to any scene he's in. His design is so badass and slick. Perfect mixture of clean yet still interesting, and knight-esque without being overly obvious. And the way his sword makes those vwoooom svinggg sounds whenever he swings it around:drool:

    This time I add a black eraser under blackout’s feet to make him a bit taller than the BA prime. Previously (pic 3) the blackout is a bit shorter than prime. I love both of them very much and it will be much more comfortable to make them look scale properly. The black colour additional part is not conspicuous.

    YES!!!!!!
    This makes me so happy, now I don’t need to hunt those for those damn Shockwave Lab one stop anymore!! My Blackout will finally be complete! :D  Granted idk when I’ll be able to install them at this point lol, but the kit will arrive at my house over the summer so it’ll happen eventually. God bless DNA Design, honestly. This turned my excitement up multiple notches.

    Now we just need a DNA Shockwave upgrade kit with a hard plastic hand, blade, cannon barrel, and if they really wanna go above and beyond, gun hose. Then I think we’re set off the top of my head

    Has mpm Starscream already gone up for preorder? Can’t find a page for it on target and I don’t want to spend $200+ to get ahold of one.
