      Hey Sixo, Happy New Year! Hope your festive season has been swell. ;)

      I'm back with more questions...I'm currently torn between FT's Insects and Badcube's lot.

      I've watched half a dozen reviews, pored over the various threads, and something is drawing me to the BC bunch, I don't want to get both lots, as I don't really do double-ups on any characters (MP Tracks aside).

      I know that both sets do things really well in certain ways, but if you could tell me which one jumps to the front of your mind, it may be very helpful for me to make a decision.

      In San Diego now. Well, a town just north of there. I'll pm you my email address so we can more easily communicate.

      It'll be cool to see what you come up with in your pics of the UW Constructicons/Devs. I feel like Takara (and Hasui in particular) infused a little more love into their set as a way of saying "we can't quite give you an MP team yet, but this is a taste of what we might do." I'm actually happy with that. :)

      I guess I would be more forgiving of MP combiner teams that can't combine since I'm more a fan of the individual bots, but I would absolutely be wishing for the option to combine them as well - it's that whole 'nice to have' situation. For what it's worth, I can safely say that I wouldn't buy an MP Combiner if it couldn't separate into individual robots.

      You're right, it is a tough one, and I would love to see what Takara could come up with in that space.

      I am glad that the UW version has tidied up some of the most glaring issues for me, and I may end up getting the set from a small online seller here in NZ.

      Even if it ends up being a placeholder until a 'better' team of Constructicons is released, I feel it will still be worthwhile and even fun to have around.

      Ooh, I've been meaning to ask people this question, but I think it might be a tad controversial for some collectors, so I'll test it out on you!

      Would you want MP Constructicons (or other combiner teams) if they could not combine?

      Ahh, thanks - I misremembered your post with Glider haha.

      Yeah. That's the issue, the majority of CW stuff isn't great for an MP collection. I like the way the Aerialbots look in particular, but I am also mindful of how bloated my former collection was with various lines in days gone by - I don't really want to return to that situation haha.

      UW Devastator does look good - I'm giving that serious consideration in light of the fact that other companies haven't quite managed to get the head sculpts so darn perfect (among other things).

      Thanks for your thoughts!

      So I was wondering what you think about the CW/UW Aerialbots and Protectobots - have you considered picking them up at all? I keep going back and forth on them since they are not really a natural fit for my collection as it stands, but damn if they don't all look pretty cool in their own right - even as a bunch of toys that might just be fun to muck around with. I know you have Powerglide from the line, but it would be good to get your thoughts before I go doing something I might regret haha.

      Glad to hear it! :)

      I have seen OT's custom - I almost looked at my own R.A in disgust afterwards haha. He does amazing work.

      Nice, hope you're feeling well rested!

      Yeah, heaps of Infernos popping out here and there heheh. Good times. Hmmm...I wonder if any 3P companies would be brave enough to try a new Red Alert - I loved his animation model.

      Wardog got here yesterday. Looks great in both modes, but that transformation is so horrendous. It's very much the 3rd party version of MP-9 :lol

      I got me a Wardog a' coming to me! eBay had a $20 off coupon, so I bit the bullet.

      Now I just need to sell some more stuff....

      The index finger tips fall off so easily on mine. I am always terrified to open his fists to pose him. I'm afraid of one falling off and losing it.
