    Obviously the Bee movie isn't a Scorcese film.
    But TLK could be mistaken for a Gilliam film.

    You know, I could never see dotm as cinema. It's more like a funfair attraction to me.

    Quintessa/ions would make great weaponizers. I’d love a set of greebly tentacles for sundry purposes.





    Ahem.

    I haven't gotten MPM Megatron (or Jazz which I sadly had to put on hold, but will get). Ratchet is a must get for me. I think the proportions could lend itself to a great figure in MPM size and complexity. Don't feel the deluxes and voyagers have done the character justice yet.

    Sky Lynx as the Commander makes perfect sense to me. He'll have wheels on the underside of the Transporter/Lynx so he can roll around Omega Supreme's tracks, like Omega's tank.

    Put Omega's rocket on top of the Transport/Lynx and you've got a Rocket Base more reminiscent of Countdown's original base.

    Milking is an art form. Ask the Japanese. A lot of the rehashing of characters came from Japanese continuity.

    Good to see you're a gracious winner.

    I stand by what I said at the time. Star Saber had lots of connection to Countdown in media (Countdown's Rocket Base was Star Saber's base too), and Star Saber is such an easy retool of Jetfire it's not funny.
    Sky Lynx doesn't fit the Generation's goal of unified scale: he's massive, whereas the other space shuttle, the one that transported the Decepticons, Astrotrain, is voyager-sized.

    I'm happy you got the toy you wanted, but jeez, don't be a dick about it.

    Maybe someday we will get a Commander Class Star Saber, if not as an original mold than perhaps a remold of Jetfire, a Bot can dream.

    The Lugnut Supreme would have to be a remold of some kind right?

    Probably just a new head.
    I mean the actual Lugnut Supremes transformed into Arks, so I highly doubt one could approximate an Ark mode out of Siege Omega. So it'd be a Geewunnification of the character that keeps the g1 Omega alt mode (s)

    And there is still way to produce RotF repaint, but I do not like alien tattoo, it is kinda stupid for me.

    Speaking of Lugnut, what if they make a toy of him that can replace Omega's tank

    less likely to have a hate boner for rodimus because the movie and optimus' associated death was long done by then. sure, people that grew up in the 90s can hate rodimus, but those that are most vocal about their hate are the ones that never got over watching optimus die in 86

    I kinda wish Hasbro killed off Optimus more and replace him with other leader. Hell maybe this way Ultra Magnus can finally become an actual Prime.

    Question: Would a Commander-size SL theoretically be big enough to fit a Siege MM or two in the cargo bay, or is that a bridge too far?

    I'm pretty sure he will be big enough. The real question is though, can you fit a micromaster in his head
