    Anyone know where I can get a good pin pusher that can push these pins in on MpM Starscreams shoulder? It is basically a rag doll arm and can't pose it.

    The ice cream truck version is the most size accurate option left.

    I have that issue with my starscream. I'm a junkie for noticing and trying to fix every qc issue on my figures. It's probably a design flaw.
    It'd just be like the Animated continuity. Megatron could hold Optimus like a cat by the scruff.

    I have a junker shatter that you can have that you can swap the useable parts for.

    Yeah, I'm similar, only I can't bring myself to alter figures lol. I was thinking it was just with my Starscream, but when my Thrust had the same issue on the same side, I was kinda sussed out

    Picked up a couple of 3D printed accessories from eBay. The seller has them as an auction instead of buy it now so got them both pretty cheap.

    It's for SS32 colour wise, but he's permanently going to be part of Jetprime, so it'll have to do for SS44.

    The guns for Starscream are unfortunately comically oversized, and in my case slightly bent. They look good positioned on his wings in not mode, and look good in vehicle mode.

    Yeah okay so I accidentally lied...
    reduced-image_12413_0_1589416175.png

    I found a used one for $24 and well, I couldn't help myself.

    Ps: I'm actually kind of excited for Jolt, he looks pretty decent for robot mode! At least something to hold over until our next batch of releases. I have mine preordered on BBTS...so not sure when I'll end up getting it. Lol

    I found this lad today at a McKay’s for $6. He’s missing his guns and one of his wheel halves, so if anybody has a some parts for him please PM me as I’d love to complete him.

    I would suggest going for Legends class Twins. I have Skids and (sort of) Mudflap. They scale perfectly and have okay-ish articulation. Not as good as the Arcees but enough to not be total bricks.

    I’d recommend Deluxe Twins for MPM scale since there’s an even smaller chance they’d be made than SS Twins.
    That ain't no Megatron. That's a damn Yottatron :D

    Yes they are! It’s amazing how well those figures scale with SS, even more than some SS figures with themselves.

    The ice cream truck Twins are about the same height so you can get them too if Legends Twins are too hard to find, by the way.

    I would have also used the DOTM Cars, but I wanted the ROTF style.

    Sam running around the desert with a sock for 40 minutes, and then Optimus goes, "Oh, is that what you were looking for? Ha, that's so funny, I already have one of those. Yeah, had it since the 80s actually, check it out."

    Liked the idea of the unused script, where the Allspark gave them life, but the Matrix awareness
