    I really hope Shatter is good enough for me despite her flaws, I loved her in Bumblebee and I just want to be happy with the toy. Maybe we'll get a Jet Mode Shatter down the line with a better robot mode, if we're lucky. I just really love that car mode.

    Thanks for all the feedback guys! Really appreciated

    It's indeed the Hasbro one I was looking at, and €40 shipped seems to be the cheapest I can find it for that'll ship to Ireland. I know there were some KOs floating around when it first came out, but those seem to be non-existent at this point. And as much as I like the look of the Takara version more, it seems to be going for three times as much as the Hasbro versions. So if I did get him, I'd probably try and do a few little touch-ups here and there to spice him up. I agree with @Applejacktimus in that I don't think we'll see Galvatron in the Studio Series line any time soon, and I'm not even sure if he'd be any more accurate than the AOE figure's shell-forming nature on account of how he transforms in the movie. But it is one of my favourite movie designs, which is the main thing that has me wanting to persue the figure

    I think I'll probably give him a miss for now though, or at the very least, lower him down my list of priorities for purchase. Thanks again guys!

    At least she seems to be taller than Helikick. I don't really mind her being that size, since I don't think Shatter and Dropkick were too much taller than Bumblebee in the film, so if the toys are at least somewhat taller than Beetlebee I'll be happy. I reckon muscle car Dropkick will also look a lot better next to her as well

    Really curious to see if Shatter will eventually get a jet mode for her in the line's future. I mean with Dropkick getting both his car and copter modes it seems it's only a matter of time but still.

    Really debating if I want to track down SS-14 Ironhide since DNA is making that upgrade kit for him. Or if I want to hold off to see if DOTM SS ‘Hide gets the SS-32 treatment and is retooled to have better articulation and a cleaner undercarriage in truck mode.

    Great display. What blue paint did you use for the pieces on Prime’s forearms? I’d like to paint those if I found the correct shade.

    It’s Nerf or nothing.

    Same. I really want to get her and the upcoming car mode Dropkick. But if she’s a terrible figure, then I have much less incentive to get him

    That's an awesome pic. You're really testing my patience now, my pre-ordered Sideswipe better come soon! Congrats on getting Bonecrusher though, he's great!

    Dropkick thankfully looks great enough to get on his own merit, but it just won't be the same without his comrade.

    he is alright.. paint indeed does wonders for the guy!
    However I believe 40 is quite steep ( I bought a KO for 12 dollar incl. shipping)

    That doesn't bother me.

    Glad to hear. Because that's who I always buy from.

    Thanks! Those are some great pictures as well! And yeah I know EXACTLY what you mean. A little while back when everyone had Sideswipe and I was still hunting for him, I was going crazy! Hoping you can get him soon, as I know how painful the wait for that guy can be :lol 

    And yeah, so glad I got bonecrusher! Finally rounds off the 2007 cons. Now all I need to complete the entire 2007 cast is Optimus, but I'm waiting on the DOTM version as he seems to be the definitive version. The wait is real...

    Almost gave in. But luckily someone bought the only in stock shatter. That saved me.

    Tried recreating the Optimus vs Bonecrusher scene with the new figures and this is the best I could do :)  that’s the best I could get Bonecrusher to lean, any further forward and he likes to topple over.
