    When the bot mode is soooo good that you don’t want to transform him into Alt mode...:banghead: 

    When you love the Alt mode but the bot mode is just soooo good...:poke 

    When you love the transformation but want to keep the joints tight as possible....:duel 

    When you pay 159.99 for your first copy and could not resist fiddling with - transforming - posing - swooshing him ... .:rock :music ...good times....



    When you found out Ross was selling him for 39.99. :bay 


    :dj 


    I love this Megatron

    I finally transformed MPM Ironhide into truck mode. It was... well, let's just say this post was almost in the BST forum. Yikes.

    It does get better with subsequent transformations, but it never feels like it's 100% there. You just kinda wrestle with it until you can get it close enough.

    Flames for what? There are stickers that add flames to the turbines of the jetpack.

    Most fortunate to have a whopping 75% discount. How come they can pull that off? Where do the margins go? Or is the cost of megatron actually 10% of the retail price??!!

    Post typhoon general cleaning.
    The top-most boxes got dusted with ceiling dirt, I'm contemplating whether I should store my SS figures in their boxes then placing them all in large plastic boxes like my other 3p stuff.

    I'm planning on storing them in their respective boxes using either plastic coated wires or paper twine (like back in HFTD) any idea which is better? Is it also wise to add silica gels during storage?

    There are some for the Jetpack, but I was looking for flames on Prime himself. The shoulder pads, legs, the doors on the robot mode chest, things like that. Some for the alt. mode as well. They did that for the SS-05 kit, but I think those would look out of place on DOTM Prime’s brighter colors.

    I have felt a great disturbance within the Force, as if countless fans screamed out in joy over the reveal of Dino.
    Ok being serious, Dino does look pretty sweet, even if his door wings are a bit too big.

    OH MY GOSH!

    I'M IN A GOOD MOOD TODAY!!

    Hard to make out all the details from the photo but Dino looks amazing! So crazy to think that we have a Dino toy after all these years. Nearly 10 years after DOTM came out he finally has a real deluxe toy.



    You're absolutely right. I'm not sure how I forgot about those details. The Studio Series Primes have all been lacking in those flames and I think I've spend so much time looking at them that I've forgotten what the actual CGI model had in terms of flames.
