    Normally, I wouldn't create a poll for something like this, but I'm having a hard time seeing how divided fans are about TFC's Structor's shovel being black rather than G1 accurate green.

    I myself prefer green, as it is G1 accurate, but more importantly, it gives Devastator a sense of color balance—Devastator has a sense of balance color-wise from head to toe and shoulder to shoulder with an accurate G1 color scheme. Structor’s black shovel ruins this balance, as Mixmaster doesn't have enough black (if any at all) to continue its balance.
    I know Exgraver has a black shovel, but that little shovel is so far enough away from the body it doesn’t look out of place. If Neckbreaker is given a black shovel too, I guess it’ll add a bit more balance to Devastator’s look, I don’t think it’s necessary as Neckbreaker’s shovel is so much closer to the body than Exgraver’s, which is why I think Green would work better.

    But I digress; this is supposed to be about Structor.

    What say you? Black shovel or green?

    Green. A black one would look horrible. A black scoop for Scavenger, fine. A black mixing barrel for Mixmaster, fine. But a black foot would just look out of place.

    The whole "black foot" thing is reminding me of Sandler's charcter in his "Mr. Deeds" movie... :D

    My bad. I guess I got lost in all the mammoth thread talking about this and that and forgot that I was in the news thread when making this one. Sorry.

    Are you kidding me? And I use to have such respect for you. LOL

    But really, you prefer the random , make no sense, black foot over a green one?
