    Cybertronian stand-off!

    20210512_233455.jpg

    There's a whole lotta guns in these pics...

    20210512_233158.jpg

    Sure, Crosshairs is well armed with his own mortar cannon and Pinpointer...

    20210512_233238.jpg

    ...but it boggles the mind with how much firepower and ordinance Spinister is carrying with Singe and Shrute and his own guns!

    I really would have liked more Targetmasters, but maybe HasTakTomy can't get the trademark names back for the other Targetmaster characters. Sigh.

    I quite love this version of Impactor, even if the head is from a different design than the body. IMG_20210513_004502_594.jpg IMG_20210513_001840.jpg IMG_20210513_000728.jpg

    Man I just dug out Siege Apeface the other day to go w ER Snapdragon myself
    It's cool to have them both, I only ever had G1 SD as a kid

    Apeface's back kibble being up over his head (compared to SD's none) makes him look bigger, almost imperious, for me
    Like he could scare away a bear easier

    Tim sure works fast...

    Tim Heada / Tim Made Shattered Glass kit for Siege Megatron

    [​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG]

    Not sure yet if this is the finished version or not. I've had some bad issues with Tim Heada stuff before, although received 2 kits recently that actually worked straight out the box. Can't say if this improvement is across the board yet with his newer kits.

    Depends how many I can successfully buy after cancelling my preorder on Pulse like a dumb fool.

    Let's be honest, though. Bears are usually pretty timid!

    I don't buy any Decepticon jets normally, but this Hotlink's color made me lose control and had to buy it.
    This purple and battle damaged effect paint is just a beauty!
    So there you go my first Decepticon jet and hopefully not the last lol

    Funny that you mention that, because Hotlink is also what got me started on Siege Seekers. Now I'm about to own all of them except Skywarp... No one can afford Skywarp anymore :\

    Target still has Snapdragon on it's website. It was just on sale last week too.

    The gods have been kind, and I managed to find myself in orbit of a Smyths Toys stocking 'ol Sparkless.

    Not sure if it's a QC fault on mine or by design, but there is a little nick by the crocked smile that makes it look like someone gave this guy a Glasgow smile. Either way I kind of dig it.

    I love the boring green on this guy.
    I know in my heart Hasbro could recolour this guy 100 more times and I'd buy every bloody one.

    I don’t know about no-one, but for me....true. I did only buy one Siege Seeker, (Thundercracker) just so I’d have one in that mold. And I bought Starscream in the Earthrise mold, intending to leave it at that.... but then Selects Sandshark* came along, and being a Conehead it was that bit different it warranted a purchase... then preorders for a re-release of ER Skywarp and Thundercracker came along and despite being just recolours of Starscream, I couldn’t resist. (They should arrive within a couple of months I believe.) If they re-release the Dirge and a Thundercracker set, will I resist? Time will tell...;) 

    ———————————————————————————————————————————————
    Edit: I of course meant “Dirge and Ramjet”. I guess I had Thundercracker on my mind having mentioned him twice already above.

    I won’t correct the post as I’ve been quoted already.
    ———————————————————————————————————————————————

    *My name for him. He is officially called ‘Sandstorm’, but there was an Autobot of that name already. Yet to be found in any of the WFC lines, granted.

    Sandstorm in WFC is a redeco of ER Ramjet. Generations Selects figure.

    I think it has to do with their painting template for the face. Ours is relatively ok.
