    He isn’t CHUG scale. Besides, if Hasbro really does give two shits, they can do people like Minerva, Cancer, Clouder and all sorts of Godmasters and Headmasters.

    These were ordered via ebay uk from a chinese seller about a month ago. I just searched regularly for ‘unique toys base’ and kept an eye on listings until someone had a cheap job lot vs the sellers putting them on for more than a leader class lol.

    Just wanting to show some appreciation for Stockade:

    IMG_20200720_083403.jpg

    When it comes to movieverse toys, most of the off-screen characters toys has some of the more obscure but interesting designs around, and 07 Stockade here is no exception; With the bulky torso, massive fists and long, bulky arms, Stockade here has a quite a robot mode that looks more like a gorilla than your typical humanoid TF robot mode.

    Are the eyes not painted for this head? I could've swore that the eyes for Shmop's Prime's eyes were painted.

    Also, how much was shipping to the US? I'm beginning to really want one!!

    Well... its purple, its somewhat convincing, and it sometimes hisses like a snake, but Sentinel now has a (temporary) shield.

    Snagged a Heli-Dropkick from a Target today (for some reason, 1 and a half years, and yet it's still lingering around), finally bought the bullet so I could have a companion piece to Jet-Shatter (and Blitzwing when he comes out). Not a bad figure at all, posability and design are fine, and while the pieces are a bit loose, they're not popping off (the only piece that popped off was one of the halves of the cowling, and even then it attached back on easily enough). Impressed by how much he compresses into the helicopter mode, looking to be more of an underrated figure minute by minute.

    Meanwhile... 85 days and still no Overload. Going to dunk my Long Haul in red paint and jury-rig him into a waist, brb

    Just finished painting SS Sentinel! It's been a long and difficult process, but I'm happy with how it turned out! There's a few things (like the 07 on the front of the vehicle mode) that I might work on improving over time, but this is a good place for it to be right now. I used a brighter red for robot mode, but due to poor paint quality (won't be using liquitex again) and how well hidden the red areas of both modes are from each other, I kept the darker red for vehicle mode. There's a lot of small details that I had fun painting (particularly on the front of vehicle mode), and I'm just really happy with how Sentinel looks with some of the other bots. Enjoy!

    I also put a link in my sig to my customs page if you want to read/see more about Sentinel or my other customs. While there is some overlap, I try to post different pictures in this thread and the one for my customs to keep things interesting!

    Hey, man its good. Chill out, we already know a lot about next year. As far as SS86 being a potentially exclusive line, i think that wouldn't make too many people happy, especially if it's Walmart.

    Oh, my bad, I apologize. I meant it more as a figure of speech, but I'll keep it in mind.

    I think it was meant more as like a "you've done a lot, give yourself a break"

    Shmop got the DMS version that's bigger. He chose the version without led eyes. Both Capcomkai versions will have led eyes. I got the small version. The bigger version is still being made.

    I love these two figures. High Octane Bumble immortalized in plastic the coolest version of movie Bumblebee's design pretty damn well, and the 2014 version brought some cool new tricks to his transformation that IMO should still be used, (hideous backpack notwithstanding) and is generally fun and cool, despite how trashy that 2014 Camaro looks.

    You know - and I fully admit I'm certainly biased because I'm an AoE fan - I generally liked the AoE line. The only outright stinkers are Lockdown, Slash, Galvatron, and Drift; and even then, some of them have something to like for some folks.

    That is terrifying. Good lord. We need to call Sandy to wrangle this Alaskan Bull Worm.


    If you're looking for a good Armada Optimus, the original Bendy Prime from Armada is actually still great to this day. I painted mine in Mortal Combat colors and still mess around with him all the time. There's also a 3P version coming with the super mode, but very stylized, if 3P is in your budget.

    Definitely want a better high octane Bee. That design is right next to ROTF Bee as my 1A and 1B favorites. I'll also take a MPM High Octane Bee too please.

    Do you have a link to where this is available? I can't read the mandarin/cantonese :(  Looks fantastic.

    I’d totally be up for new versions of these! The concept Camaro Bee is pretty fun but I know they can do better with both of them now. AOE (and TLK) were on TV earlier today so I was actually thinking about this! xD
