    I don’t think so, I’d have to go back and watch.

    So, this is what I did for my fossilizers combined mode. IMG_20210704_105942888~2.jpg It's nothing too crazy, and definitely a bit wonky but I actually like it more than I thought I'd like the three of them combined! I love the fossilizers and plan to pick up any more that they release in the future, it's easily been one of my favorite concepts that has been introduced into the franchise in some time!

    Got a second Ractonite (first one is stuck in HK), but here we go!

    The proportions and overall build is inspired by Provisional Unit 05, and the head is inspired from John Hurt from the Elephant Man, not Merrick himself, but the concept rather literally. The head crotch was brought from Flame Toys Optimus since he had an enormous bulge.

    I originally wanted to create a midget similar to the one in Happy Gilmore’s dream sequence (I watched it for the first time last night and I laughed pretty hard when he first appeared), but Ractonite’s torso was so heavy I just couldn’t find a way to do it.

    A few months ago, I tried to make some Bloodborne/Sekiro-ish style bone weapones with paleotrex
    I really love this concept and hope to see more of them after Kingdom but...:(

    Why is no one talking about Wingfinger? His feedback and review page has been as dead as he looks for a while now while Tracks' and Skorponok's are popping off. I have been anticipating this dude for months and it's like only 5 people have him. Luckily mine is set to get here Saturday.

    Been wondering that exact same thing myself. And unfortunately, mine won't arrive until September (according to BBTS).

    Haven't found one yet. :)  None of Deluxe Wave 3 has turned up in Tucson yet. We've had a few Rhinox and Galvatron show up, but not many.

    I've succeeded at cleaning up and organizing my closet, weaponizers, micromasters, and battlemasters again. So now I can work with these guys again without it being a big hassle.

    I quickly whipped this guy together to test out the quad legger base. It worked really well for support, and it's not as hard to reposition it as I expected. I used a hair tie to keep the right arm pointing forward as I don't have any goop to improve the tightness of the joints. The left arm cooperated on its own for once!

    I went to my local Best Buy off Oracle and they didn't have fuck all in the whole store. A couple Cyberverse action attackers and that's it. I pop in there about once a week and it just doesn't appear that they stock any Transformers besides drug store garbage.

    But, my Wingfinger (just 1) from BBTS appears to be arriving this coming week sometime. I may end up grabbing 2 more, assuming they aren't out of stock, before I trigger my pile of loot.

    Yeah! I just got a notification about Wingfinger coming along soon as well. They didn't specify a time + date but the vagueness of "sometime soon" a bit more exciting than "definitely September".

    This combined mode is just too well proportioned and intentional to have been an afterthought, in my opinion. I am over the moon with Wingfinger, and can't wait to get up to all sorts of fossilizer shenanigans with this'n.
