    Stuff like that Octopunch (particularly that custom someone made that had tentacles), ROTF Bludgeon and that IDW Thundering design (no official figure unfortunately, but the old gen one was good too) are my favorite way for them to updated pretenders

    Something that's a mix between the shell and the inner bot, although for a future Octopunch I think a submarine would be a good choice

    Honestly, when it comes to that SG Selects boxset, I had wanted Hasbro for a while now to repaint Siege Voyager Optimus Prime as SG Optimus Prime, as the mold being almost exactly the same size as Classics Voyager Optimus Prime means I could’ve used it as SG Optimus Prime’s Cybertronian Mode.

    Honestly Octopunch has so many colors I wasnt sure what to call the opposite color. I just said pink as a random color. As far as import tax, that doesnt exist in the US. Ive heard of other countries charging it, but dont have to deal with it here. But I imagine there may be many benefits living in your country as well. Maybe you get free healthcare. Maybe certain "fun" things are legal. Maybe you can walk the city streets at 2 am without fear of being robbed. Maybe your country has a huge population of hot chicks. I dont know where youre from, but im sure theres gotta be something about your country I would envy.

    Definitely gonna wait for others to sell it at a more reasonable price, haha. I could pick up some pretty nice, larger scale figures for $80.

    yeesh. I picked up a few of the newage bots and like them a lot, but... $80 for a legends sized figure is too much IMO. I even thought the seekers were a bit expensive at $50.

    I wanted to get this one too but I don't think I want it quite that much.

    Yeah the price is absurd this time around. I know NA has a pretty loyal fanbase.... but that will dry up quick at those prices!

    Having owned the original energon mold (in stock colors) I can say for sure that a repaint of it could give you a firefly esque ship as well.

    This is why I'd rather pay $90 and get them in Voyager to Ultra size.
