    It just seemed too dark the first time.

    Nice pics and great review... I actually felt less love for lugnut because of its lack of articulation... I knew this kind of jet mode usually given with lack of articulations similar to (Cybertron Jetfire) But I don't get it why Lugnut does not even have the rotate-able neck and waist...

    Mighty fine. I envy your Animated collection, and I think this is the best TF line ever. 2008 is such a good year for us fans between these and Universe.

    so... then there really is no way to make him hold the "mace" with the head in a useful direction, huh? that's too bad... maybe I'll have him use it like a javelin. maybe I can get a passable "I'mma throw this atchoo!" pose going on.

    Well, to be fair, his head doesn't even turn on the cartoon, which is why he has 5 eyes :)  And the waist CAN turn if you unlock it, but it's not terribly stable that way.

    You can. It looks like some sort of giant killer lawn dart :)

    Cool review Peaugh, hopefully they make a Leader class one of this guy in the future to match up with the larger Bulkhead. Now that would be cool.

    Unfortunately I can't.

    The rest of the bots I'm getting will be almost to scale, and Lugnut will just look too off for me being so much smaller.*shrugs*

    Which is why there probably will be a Leader version, we'll just have to wait and see what Hasbro have to say at Botcon.

    You know I don't even care if we'll get some kind of Leader Lugnut or not, that figure is just too awesome to pass.
    Plus if we get Leader version I could just modify Lugnut into his cybetronian mode!

    Nice! At first glance he looks like he should've been bigger. I felt the same way about Bulkhead...before i got my hands on one. Now i cant wait! The one on ebay caught my eye untill i saw shipping. Looks like i will have to wait. :(

    looks like hes fun to transform. I was hoping for a more brightly coloured toy, like grimlock he looks a little 'faded'.

    He's not quite as saturated as the cartoon, but he's more colorful than the vid makes him look.

    I finally got the automorph on the weapon unstuck and working properly, I'll post a short video of it in action later this evening.
