    The 'Con shelf updates! Ratbat gets a stand so he's finally elevated. Insecticons and PCP are recent acquisitions.

    Dawned on me after taking the pic that I could try and find a WFC Shockwave and 3 Reflectors/Refraktors to have a "complete" Season 1 shelf.

    Yup.

    Totally not a Season 1 'Con, but I like him too much to not put him there. Same with that TFCC Scourge, really.

    Just purchased Smashdown, aka the Chicago Bulls hammer. Initially i though he was weird but he's fun. One the instructions and most reviewers don't mention from stock footage his arms can wield his handle it as a gun. Hammer looks good on Optimus but the hammer handle it a b*tch to get into the slot.

    The blast effect is cool for Grimlock using Pteraxadon's gun mode. But my favorite is Smashdown has a fan-made mode a Boombox (basically no handle a and make someone hold it)

    Add Siege Soundwave's weird folding gun thingy as a handle extension and he looks even better. You can get a two handed position that way. Looks far cooler.

    Sadly we never got Siege Soundwave over here in the greath north europe of Iceland. I had to buy Siege Voyager Prime from overseas. However we got lucky enough to get Earthrise Starscream. Damn that's a great figure.

    That's too bad that you didn't get Siege Soundwave. I never got a chance at the Earthrise version in my area, but the Siege version works for me anyways. I don't think we will ever see another version that will pull off a "Lamp Post" mode ever again lol.

    Earthrise Starscream is a gem, to be sure. I never thought Has-Bruh would ever consider revisiting the classics mold and update it to this extent. Only the hip flap is in my opinion a poor choice, as stated several hundred times already, that the Siege mold did it better lol.

    He's still a fantastic mold and the only thing that bugs me is that Skywarp was a stupid exclusive and I wasn't able to add him to my collection.

    Same story as all of the cone heads. No mainline distribution and I missed out.

    You know that they're heroes because they've got swords and they're wearing red and blue! :cool:
