    These look really cool! I wish these had been released.

    The deluxe results, anyway. Of the remaining options, I'd say DOTM Sideswipe is my favorite.

    Ironhide and Starscream are my two favorite SS voyagers, but I think, picking one, I'd have to go with Ironhide.

    Blackout is my 2nd favorite leader (after DOTM Prime), happy to see him take the lead!
    To answer your earlier question about vehicle scale, they're too big with to scale with the Carbots (They might scale with the Arcee triplets, though).

    While I don't have ROTF Skids, I do have ROTF Mudflap. Comparing the Mudflaps, I don't think either of them are very good, but ROTF Mudflap is a little better. I will say I really like how the DOTM Twins look in vehicle mode, though.


    I went looking through some concept art earlier to see if there were any more pictures of Megatron's single-hand fusion cannon from 07 (the recently announced one from Shockwave labs). While I didn't find anything on that, I did find the concept art for the axe on Ratchet's 07 toy, which I don't think I've seen before. Bee's wings flipping over when the rocket launchers are deployed is kinda neat, too.

    Just search for "hand saw" or "xacto saw" but don't get something with a huge blade.
    I didn't either until just now.
    You learn something new every day. What part of the world uses this term?
    I've said it before and I'll say it again: PEG HIS ASS.
    If you ever get a new figure it's best to check out the feedback section of the forums. A lot of people in here don't know about them. There's a whole thread for almost every figure that comes out.
    It's kinda hard to explain, which is why I posted the link to the page where I found it. You have to cut an "L" in the part that the wheel is on. This allows the wheel part to hinge backwards without hitting the rest of the backpack. I know you think all social media is trash but it's a really great place to share stuff like this.

    Albino movie Jetfire is the most cursed thing I’ve seen today.

    But I’d definelty get Ratchet, Soundwave, Jazz, Starscream, and Optimus.

    Devastator. SS figures in general need more ankle tilts to have WFC-style posing.

    I might be interested, if they were done well. Although I think Hasbro would really be reaching at the bottom of the barrel if they went and did a G1 Barricade repaint. Like, who even remembers G1 Barricade?

    The only G1-style repaint from previous lines that I feel really did the job well was HFTD Rescue Ratchet. It was a clever application of the G1-esque colour scheme that didn't wash out the details of the movie design

    I can admit I'm probably being a hardass with how I view social media and there's probably a nice niche Transformers community there, but I can't get past my own stigmatism, it's still just social media to me. TFW is the only online community I've been a part of that I genuinely like. You don't really get the sucky parts of the internet here, so long as you can tolerate opinions.

    I found the mod, looks easily doable. I see you went an extra step and removed part of the fender, likely transplanted onto the hood. Dunno if I'll go that far. Time to call Ratchet, Bumble's going into surgery~

    Glad to see Ironhide finally get his revenge! Though I'm kinda shocked he won, as I didn't expect him to prevail over Sentinel (who I thought was a massive hit). Just a shame that I'm going to have to vote against him this time around. Happy to see my favorite leader win, and see some of my favorite voyagers in the top two!
    Really hope Starscream can win this bracket as well! I don't know how, but he quietly became my favorite SS Voyager over time.

    Not gonna lie, if Starscream wins this then I expect someone on this thread to give him his coronation! :lol

    Finally got Jazz in the mail today. And just like that, my 07 movie cast is finished. I've never finished a full movie cast before and it feels pretty cool

    I finally got my Studio Series Sentinel. As cool as he looks, I gotta ask (even though it’s already been asked, sorry, don’t know where to look). What red paint is best to use for the sides of Sentinel as it feels like MPM Optimus’ paint job being only halfway done and I never realized how bad he looks from the side.

    Ratchet looks the best! I totally wish Hasbro can do something like this akin to what they did with the sdcc dinobots set. Btw, that white jetfire is in ebay. Someone customized it and he is selling it.
