    Tigerhawk's is on the rotating green pillar inside his robot chest. It's really only visible during transformation.

    With Blackrachnia you can just pretend that her inner spark is being hidden by the outer one. :lol

    Help! I have begun to lose interest in BW! :eek:  I don't know whats happening to me, I haven't watched the show in months and I barely, if ever, pick up my figures anymore. (most pics you see on here are from months ago) They are just in a closet gathering dust.

    hey, so tm fox kids waspinator is pretty cool. he's super cluttered though, with all those insect legs and a lot of hinges involved in his main body. still a neat toy tho. the wings are like, way thicker plastic than expected. really nice, solid feel to him.

    It comes and goes. I didn't really start fiddling with my Beast Wars stuff again till I started getting into Pledge-ing the transmetals. Then came the pictures cause I figured I'd need to transform them a bit to make sure I got all the chrome. Then I started doing the Shitty Background Toy Review and I'm just kinda back at it.

    I only have the Buzzsaw repaint. He is pretty good but I prefer the new Generations version of Waspinator. Just more streamlined and with less obtrusive, hangy off bits

    yeah tm waspinator is super cluttered lol. the beast legs make robot mode posing a chore, but i mostly bought it for beast mode so hey, lol.

    the gen one looks cool but i like robotic animals over organic ones

    If you want I'll take them off your hands for $1/lb. It'd be a bit of a burden on me but that's what makes me such a selfless and caring guy. Heck I'd even go so far as to pay for shipping. ;)

    TBF the Gen Waspinator is almost robotic looking as it is.

    It's still my plan to one day get a loose RID Megs/Galvs and make my own "TM3" Megatron. I may even make it more like the TM2 deco-wise.

    good lord, TM tarantulas is so expensive everywhere.

    is scavenger any good? he looks super cool.

    i'm on a huge transmetal kick, lol. next up is armada airazor to turn into classics rid filch, but terrorsaur and scavenger both look really tempting...

    I haven't bought BW figures in what feels like ages, so getting these two in the mail today really felt like a breath of fresh air. Now I just need to acquire a set of missiles for Scorponok... Anyone got spares? :p 

    Scavenger is loads of fun. You'd think those gangly insect legs would get in the way in robot mode, but once you kinda figure out what to do with them you can really enhance his silhouette.

    I was getting some items ready for eBay last night and I was reminded of how much I really like TM2 Iguanus. He is easily one of my favorite BW figures due to his transformation and gimmick. I really love the dress. My only complaint is that I wish it was possible to flip his shoulder pads over so he'd be less World of Warcraft and more Working Girl.

    I hope you have good luck finding some. I got my Scorpy from a collector's store for like $15 but he only had one missile. So I set up a saved search on eBay and just waited and not even a week later, a single Sandstorm missile popped up for a couple of bucks and I nabbed it. My missiles might be off coloured but in the most epically way possible lol.
