    Perfect. I remember this shot now. I just have to decide if I'm cool with Sideswipe and Red Alert being taller than Jazz, Prowl and Mirage... Decisions, decisions.

    Is Magic Square not making Lambos?

    I'm still trying to decide if I want that Toyworld Wheelkack. It's my opinion that he looks to serious to go in with my legends.

    Well, what exactly are you looking to do? Do you want all the carbots to be the same exact height, or are you taking liberties with the scale?

    I don't mind a little bit of variety in my scale, honestly. Sometimes it's nice to see some figures stand a bit higher than others, so you can get some more dynamic displays, I think. At the same time, I'm fully aware of how "off" the Mechanic Studio side of MFT bots can look when mixed in with even their own standard run.

    I did preorder the Grapple and Inferno two pack, so I'm just biting the bullet on those guys, but from the pic you posted, I think they're going to fit in fine.

    I haven't heard anything about MST putting out Lambos, but that would probably work out better. My guess is they would be just slightly taller than the NewAge crew and I wouldn't mind that at all. And I'm in the same boat with Whiskey Jack, though it does appear to be possible to at least pose him or mistransform him in ways that compensate for his height differences.

    Sorry, I must be misunderstanding... MST [Magic Square] has already released Sideswipe and Red Alert [plus a G2 'Swipe] - besides Sunstreaker, what other major Lambos are they missing?

    I'm looking forward to their Grapple and Inferno. I ordered a set to see how I like their size compared to MST's. I love options.

    Gotta get that perfect alt/bot scale balance between MFT Magnus 2, MST OP, and Inferno & Grapple.

    What, you guys are confused by MST vs MFT?! I mean MechFans Toys... they're the same as MechPlanet, right? Yeah, MP [not to be confused with Masterpiece], wait no... MFT uses the sub-imprint Mech Soul [MS?]... but Mech Planet is another name for HS, aka Hot Soldiers [who might actually be part of MFT?]... plus DX9 and NA [who may or may not be DX9 in disguise] and PPT... not to mention TW and IF... nah, not confusing at all! :lol :lol :lol

    TW Wheeljack with MST Lambro, and NA Datbros.

    Wheeljack has a "secret OG G1 toy mode" wherein you have the option not to fully extend the legs making him the same height as the NA carbots.

    You say it in jest, but when the scale is the same, well, maybe it really is all just smoke and mirrors. :cool: :lol
