    Hey guys and girls Im pretty new to the toy line so if it comes across that way its cause its true! I was just in Toys R Us and the flip and change Optimus and Grim looked better than the leaders to me and were a little bigger AND half the price! What do you think? I think since they scale well Im gonna get them and put them next to my Leader Ironhide and Sentinel and Brawl.

    I'd think the style would contrast pretty bad, but at least with Grimlock I think the leader looks downright awful. The flip change might fill that hole well.

    Yeah, I think I might leave the leader Op in truck mode to look a little less out of place.

    ALSO, the leader Op I saw had black tinted windows on the truck mode. I thought they had made them a horrible yellow color. Did they change it? I might get that one and leave it in truck mode instead...

    Bear in mind that the Flip/Smash & Change figures have zero articulation apart from, like, their elbows.

    Im telling you guys though, the Grim robot mode on the flip looked pretty bad ass. Well, to my noob eyes anyway. :)
