    First case of movie Leader as Voyager +.


    But even then I don't see why this is a Leader also. Cause engineering from what I have seen isn't anything complex that it needs to be a Leader.

    It's a shame he's a leader. I don't own the SS ROTF Megatron, but isn't he a really huge voyager? If so, they probably could've made Scourge a voyager.

    Legit forgot about that haha, IDK how but I did.

    With how he was, Scourge could have been a Voyager probably, with just more alt-mode kibble in robot mode. Which while inaccurate I would prefer it so much.

    But I wanna know why Optimus Primal is a Leader.

    I ended up selling the original release after movie 1 Megs was released and then purchased the battle damaged repaint repaint from Target a year later. The darker gray and bronze looks so much better than the monotone gray on the original.

    I don't know if I should be applying force, I only know the glasses on Wheeljack are attached between the eyes.

    Yeah both rotf and 07 Megatron are about the same size and as scourge based on size comparisons, and seem about as complex, so he most likely could have been one.

    I prefer the scale of the ice cream truck figures. It’s not perfect but it’s better.

    Just out of curiosity, is the spring on your Skids's neck too strong? Mine is a pain to keep in vehicle mode

    That’s my issue too!! I cld see if the engineering was there. But he’s sooo simple though. Especially his legs!!
    SS44 came with a whole lot of parts though, so the price point was acceptable.

    His legs are the way to skinny. Just makes me curious why he was a Leader, but that is something Samlock can answer. I would have preferred a Voyager and I would while inaccurate I would love it if it had some alt-mode kibble in robot mode due to budget (like TLK Voyager Prime)

    Also why Optimus Primal is a Leader. Cause he doesn't look complex at all like his BW show design.

    No I’ve never had that issue. Mine does have misassembled arms though. So transforming skids is a pain.

    I guess even though Optimus Prime would be the go to for money since he’s more popular and well know.
