    I think Jumpstream is perfect as is. The look of the mold just works so well for her, probably thanks to her status as a new character. Pyra Magna is pretty good too. Sort of has a tall and slim vibe. Even Rust Dust is pretty nice. I think Victorion is good overall, but I guess Dust Up can benefit from the new look and if they can retool it into a Cybertronian helicopter the twins can too. That might be because of their common modes, however.

    What I wish is that they would get individual re-releases. There's something about the plastic that is off and I would enjoy ready replacement, or just having an extra Jumpstream around to fiddle with.

    Hmm ... I read the original post as sarcasm, as if rapid fire were saying that Transformers is great even *without* MP. Eh, maybe I misinterpreted it

    Found Rodimus Unicronus at TRU today. I’ve been looking forward to him since the original PotP pics leaked.

    I also finally bought the lonely Six Shot sitting in clearance at a local Walmart. That poor guy was like an old dog at a pound - he was sitting on that shelf forever, with nobody wanting to take him home. At $19, how could I say no?

    It's amazing how much I didn't like the Starscream but love Elita-1. She just works better.

    Especially after you fix her feet. :v

    Okay this might be a strange question...but any PotP/TR figure (voyager or below, preferably) that can store...the titan master in their bot mode, visible from outside? So kinda like, they're using the Titan Master's power (since the Titan Master in PotP has symbols instead of face) inside their body.

    you can plug a master in roadtrap's chest.
    you can also plug 1 under each of battletrap's arms.

    you can also plug one into the clone bots, but that looks a little inappropriate.

    Please don't
    ask for a dislike button. You think there is too much negativity on this site?
    That would pale
    in comparison to
    what we'd get with a dislike button.

    I love that you have "travel buddies" with you on your business trip!

    I was in a Hampton Inn for a month in 2016, and ended up with 4 combiners on the desk. I kept the "do not disturb" sign up all the time to keep the staff from gossiping about all my toys!

    You're far too young, but a very long time ago we did, I want to say before RID (AKA Car Robots) came out. It was disastrous.

    Frankly I was surprised that likes came back in the last board changeover.
