    I’ve indulged in too much cognac... you can edit posts together instead of posting 3 times in a row :p 

    Also Starscream V2 is dope. Gonna be a GOAT for like a calendar year lol

    I was out of the MP collecting game for a while. This brought me back in. Now just give me Thundercracker and Skywarp and I'll be set.

    The user, and friend to many of us, TCracker died of cancer. I don’t like this sentiment of a person being reborn through another’s online ID. Seems uncaring. Just my :2c:

    Agreed...I find it insensitive, but decided to hold my tongue for once(be proud of me, we all know that the me even just a year ago wouldn't have done that). Trying to give him the benefit of the doubt here and assume that he had no ill intent.

    i considered it as a tribute to keep his memory alive but to each his own, we all process grief differently

    Given that Thundercracker joined in 2002..... and that some members may not remember TCracker, it would be nice if people could give the benefit of the doubt

    I 100% am not chastising anyone here. I’m sure the poster had nothing but genuine and good feelings about what they said. I’m just calling out how I took it. The poster above shouldn’t be ridiculed or talked badly about in any manner whatsoever so so we’re all clear on where I stand. I’ve told some flop jokes before. Made some guffaws in front of friends. It happens :)

    He looks great and im finally looking forward to something official. Altmode is great, but cant hold a candle against mp-3 though, still the best plane altmode in my opinion.

    I'm very interested to see the in-hand photos of this guy as from my (as @ThatGuyCalledBlaster puts) my Chugger perspective, I think this is the best looking of the toon MPs. The back of the wings doesn't even bother me that much. I just find it incredibly interesting how well the toon style was pulled off here (aesthetically speeking_ as I think (of the recent MPs) I thought prime looked fine (not my cup of tea but still good), Hound looked passable and bee looked dreadful with the kibble. With this guy, I just don't get it, he looks magical! Better than the Maketoys even!

    I'm definitely considering this guy in Thundercracker colors.

    Bro c'mon, CHUG's a hard word to work with in the sense of how the naming scheme of the Discord roles go. :lol 

    Methinks I should have made you the Resident Stand User instead. :D 

    And hey, finally you'll have someone for Star Saber to go toe-to-toe with!

    Scale wise, more like breast plate to head, but it still works.

    His lips are precisely as kissable as Starscream's should be :-*

    Yup!

    If Starscream is all we get in 2021, I'm fine with that. I'd like another G1 bot or two, but I can live without them. MP-52's that good.

    You alao saw his posts in the XTB Menasor thread, I see?

    If not, you have no idea how on point this comment actually is! Suffice to say they were deleted, as were all the "wtf" comments... the world is a strange, strange place sometimes
