    I honestly didn't even think about it. Cute girl shows up in video and I'm just contentedly watching the video waiting to see more of the figures. However, here's where this becomes a confession: I've seen reviews by male reviewers where they've shown themselves on camera and I found it incredibly irritating (unless it's Bobby Skullface but that's because he hides his face I guess). The fact that the cute girl didn't irritate me just proves that, as far as I'm concerned anyway, this totally works. The fact that I didn't notice or think about it until you pointed it out apparently proves that I lack self awareness but that's another matter :confused:

    Was expecting them to be the same height as the MS Stunticons limbs. As the alt aren't in scale which each other does this mean that Devastator might be taller than Menasor? Not that I mind, if there is one combiner that I like bigger it's Devastator and the other being Predaking. It's just my Omega Supreme, MFT Huge Dragon, is going to be way to small in comparison.

    Constructicons bots have to be bigger than Stunticons in order to have a good sized Devastator. They don't have a Motormaster trailer skeleton for combining.

    The vast majority of her video reviews on her channel on weibo are exactly what you describe as being "typical male videos" - a little showing of face at the beginning, usually showing off the box, then nothing but hands for the rest of them. I've seen way more reviews by dudes on youtube where it's a dude sitting facing the camera waving a toy around in the air (which is acceptable only if your name is Thew).

    Taken that in account the Constructicons are 6 bots with 2 of it's members becoming the torso and they use this piece

    In the end it doesn't matter. As said before Inlike my Devastator bigger than Menasor and it looks like MST Constructicons en Stunticons are going to be my version of them and not the single bots.

    Newage Bonecrusher and Scavenger are on their way, I'll try to make a picture of them with the Stunticons, no word yet on when the MST Scrapper and Mixmaster will be released.

    I've been really struggling with the bot size, so much so that I ordered the 1st set of NA Constructicons just to test the waters.

    Don't get me wrong, I'm still in for at least 1 set of MS Constructicons for sure for combined mode, just not sure for bots yet. Ride or die with Magic Square.

    interesting...for me they are a great size and it really hits home that they are the builders and all around the baddest cons around. i personally would not like them to be small little shrimps in my collection.

    but i am curious to see how you feel when you get them in hand.

    My biggest beef is how they scale with the Stunticons. I hope that MS Scrapper and Mix Master come out soon so I can give an accurate comparison.

    I say all of this and my MP collection combiners are all over the place scale wise. Not sure why my OCD is kicking in on legends scale these days.

    The smaller they are the more size matters ;)

    On that note, are the NA Seekers same height as MS Stunticon limbs?

    Sure do wish the green was a stronger, more saturated version of itself. I dislike when Constructicons end up looking sickly pale green instead of vivid G1 green. Reminds me a bit of how Toyworld never managed to quite achieve the same green they did on their first run of Constructor in any of the later reissues. :\

    Dude, are you kidding me? You can't think of any other reason why a woman might want to show herself in a video other than seeking attention and having low self esteem?

    When a guy shows himself it's no biggie. Thew, Jobby, TJ Omega... they are all bravely overcoming their unattractiveness by being on camera. But the women are seeking attention.

    That's a wild generalization you're making for 50% of the population there.

    Agreed. I wouldn't mind a Millie Bobbi Skullface or an EMGOlatina that actually knows their shit. Be refreshing to hear a female opinion on TF that is also educated.

    Maybe some of the female members here can consider that.

    Thank you so much, it's a hard struggle. Five days isolated and the worst already happened, I feel a little bit better now. Meanwhile, my wife put packages of ShowZ on my door :lol
