    We know the last two voyagers and have for awhile, one slot is between two characters and the other you guys already know if you read back far enough, it got leaked awhile ago and nobody seemed to care.

    Yup, a really sharp one. It's simple if you take your time.

    if you go just one scale, I keep to my suggestion as to get a rotf/dotm/buster/striker leader prime, he actually scales quite well with the mpm's and make Ironhide look more in scale.

    by the way Ratchet is within the margins altrough the real thing has a bigger wheels/tires combination.
    as you can see with this pic, the hummer is about the same width as the camaro but the MPM needs a lift to be in scale. 2011-02-10_17-31-07_684.jpg

    I was gonna use R.E.D. Arcee eventually. Nothing wrong with having her be taller than some of the dudes ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    Probably should’ve done this instead of just cutting it straight off lol oops

    I like this figure, but prefer the Stockade version

    Your lighting in those shots is exquisite. Makes him look so alive. Well done

    Assuming 2021 keeps up with the 3 waves a year trend we still don't know the final wave of 2021 but my guess is the final wave of 2021 will have Jolt, RotF BB, Rotf, Sideswpie and I predict Hatchet as the 4th as he was mentioned in Mirage's product description on Hasbro Pulse. I don't think 2022 will have too much SS86 because aside from leader Slug, voyager Wreck Gar, and maybe a voyager Blitzwing who will Hasbro realistically make and put in the SS86 line? So at least in the deluxe department I think we'll see some Bayverse figures. Since we've been getting at least 2 Bumblebee's every year we may see the BB movie 76 Camaro as a new mold to coincide with the 2022 movie though it might be weird for more casual Transformers fans and parents to see merchandise from a movie that came out 4 years ago along with the current movie stuff an easy fix for this would be to make 76 BB a 2022 movie figure instead although it is too soon to tell. In terms of AoE Bumblebee I think we might see him in 2022 as if you look at the list of SS Bumblebees they are running very low.

    DotM Bumblebee
    AoE 2014 Bumblebee
    AoE 1967 Bumblebee
    BB 1976 Bumblebee

    So assuming he doesn't get any new forms in the upcoming movie 2022-2023 seems likely for the remaining designs.

    Yeah, but those are terrible SS figures because they aren't based on movie scenes. I'd love to see more SS repaints from Hasbro which is why they should do an SS Selects line for that kinda thing. Since Hasbro loves Bumblebee so much I could see them splitting up these 4 remaining designs into 4 years so they'll always have a Bumblebee in the yearly assortment.

    I don’t own him, but I very much approve of this.

    (also I’m sure this chest will get positive rather than negative reception as soon as someone paints it silver.)

    I can put my own chewed caramel on my own toys, thanks.

    The ROTF chest looks fine. It looks more like an actual thing than an exploded blender.

    That being said, something still feels off with this upgrade. Might just need better pics (and finished colors).

    Eyyyy I love unintentional shoutouts to me :) 

    As for the upgrade, I suppose it will depend on cost and how exactly it attaches. Does it clip onto the original chest? Do you remove the original chest? Is it prone to breakages? I must know these things.

    Here's some Trumpeter Bumblebee photos to try and stop the Shmop. We don't need a Shmop invasion. There can't be one...right? Haha... right?!
