    So, I guess I’m adding “spend $100 on a holy grail” to bucket list, guess I’ll soon be the proud owner of an original Lio Convoy

    Brilliantly done. That composition is similar to how I like to display my MPs. Let’s keep praying that someday this scene can be recreated in MP form.

    That cover art really is cool. I had to save it for it’s screen-wallpaper potential.
    Top stuff, @TGping.

    I want a "Voyager Class Lio Convoy" (Leo Prime, Lio Prime, Leo Primal, Optimus Pride... whatever you wanna call him) SO bad. I have the original "Ultra class" from way back in the day and he goes awesome with the original bawsmunki. If needed as a selling point, there are plenty of Redecoes possible:
    1. (Magnaboss) Prowl/ Lio Jr. (direct redeco) to go with B.A.T. Skywarp,
    2. Cybertron Leobreaker/Nemesis Breaker/Leo Prime - if Legacy can G1-ify TFP Arcee and Bulkhead, then the whole chest vs. shoulder issue could be hand-waived as "B1-ify-ing"
    3. Alpha Trion (been several lions of him)
    4. Razorclaw homage (would hurt missing the combination though)
    5. BM Snarl
    6. TFP Thundertron

    Thats PLENTY of options spanning the decades.

    Funny you mention Alpha Trion as the original concept for him being a lion was going to a a Lioconvoy redeco before 3h settled on a BM Snarl repaint for their faux Wreckers catalog, though oddly the artwork from the comic looks like a mix of Lioconvoy and BM Snarl

    That's just Bugly!

    [​IMG]

    Since Bugly was apparently never released in Japan, could this mean that this was planned as some character in Japan that got canned for whatever reason?

    I wouldn't be surprised if this was a way of putting him into the Japanese market, considering that the Wave 2 Pretenders didn't hit Japan (well, until now with Legacy Iguanus.)

    I wasn't into the mutants, but wifey saw a few of them for the first time, and seems interested, so I may have to hunt a few of them down.

    Wait, Cybershark is getting a reissue?? That's pretty damn awesome!! I sold mine long ago, but that damn shellformer is just too damn cool to not get again!!

    Awe man, I'd love to see your 3H Wreckers!! While I'm personally more into the IDW Wreckers, I think that the 3H Wreckers are pretty dope!!
