    If you buy the mega construx seals vs submariners set, you can make a pretty decent William Lennox and Sam witwicky PXL_20230127_042956397.jpg

    Honestly I think you're onto a winner with Blades as Cloudburst.

    The figure without the hat really reminds me of John Cena in Bumblebee.

    It does kinda look like burns. Unfortunately, that's the only brown haired figure heart I own, so it's going on Lenox. If I find something better in the future, I will definitely use it...

    The answer is simple. With so many bot toys available, & so many on the horizon, we need to make as much room as possible in our REFORMATTED head-canon. Thus, the answer lies in both solutions: designate a figure to represent both the inner AND outer forms of the Pretender.

    Landmine (inner)
    Energon_Landmine_toy.jpg
    Lander-1 (outer)

    I mean, let's face it, we ain't ever gonna get an actual shell, so we make do.
    I hope this works out for you guys too.

    I prefer those suggestions for Landmine as they look like traditional Transformers not the disappointing shell hybrids of Legacy and CHUG.

    Yeah, but I don't have him & the original Crumplezone has the bubble cockpit. Besides, I always asign a second figure to be the shell, with a similar color scheme, look & usually the Japanese or European name.

    Any suggestions? I'm thinking tidal wave, sg the arc, or Necrotitan

    Does that thing transform? I've seen a couple of pics of it, but I don't know anything about it. Really surprised its Titan sized.

    That is pretty cool and at least looks like a IDW titan but what actually is it?
