“Pick on someone your own size!”

 

Would that be his B-side?

 

My favourites amongst the many car repaints in the TF Masterpiece series. I wish they would do a Diaclone black Ironhide!

 

So bad they're good!

 

Tremendous!

 

Oh I think that time is due. Release it and I will trash Voodoo Robots Black Animus to the basement of storage boxes of no return.

 

Me Snarl CURSE your sudden but inevitable betrayal!

 

My G1-ish collection so far.

 

Megatron next to SG prime: “so who exactly is the bad guy here?”

 

Megatron vs Dinobot:

 

I thought a stand-alone BW MP collection of only MP-32 and MP-43 would be more than perfect enough - but I actually think Dinobot and Megatron's rivalry is much more interesting, and that those two look better duking it out on a shelf too. In robot mode or beast mode, they make a hell of a pair! Great photo btw, your outdoor shots were part of what sold me on older releases like Cheetor  

Love it! Why out of all of those does Dirge attract my eye the most? Must be because I have yet to buy him - you've got him in a great pose there.

 

Lol! I DESPERATELY wanted an MP-10 mold without breaking the bank, so I got SG Prime on BBTS. I’m thinking about getting a TE-01 OP Leader 2nd run someday maybe, since MP-44 is too pricey.

But I’d say they’re a team...for now.

 

eh, the important thing is you got to experience the amazing mold that is MP 10. I got a year of the horse one and still don't have enough interest since that to buy the MS prime. I might one day, but it won't be for a while.

 

Why, thank you! He’s a great figure if you don’t mind posing him and leaving him forever, since he doesn’t stay together so well lol.

That’s what I thought too. When I got into the MP line, everybody was going crazy about the MP-10 mold, so I just had to experience it in some form. I really just want an official Optimus Prime now to go with my MP-36, but I’m afraid I’ll have to go third party. I’m just the kind of guy who doesn’t like buying third party figures and slapping a faction sticker on it and calling it good. I like official TF products lol.

I might just do that...we’ll see!  

 

Oh yeah I got Thrust a little while back, and I had MP-11+S+SW+TC, so I'm well aware of the mould as being more one to set up and leave for a while, rather than one who's fun to fiddle with. For a couple of grunts I think Dirge and Thrust would go pretty nicely on the back of the Decepticon shelves.


The value of official MP-36s has taken a big hit thanks to the multitude of KOs out there, I saw a MISB one sell on ebay the other day for what was basically pre-order prices. The same might happen in a few years with official MP-44s, though if it's simply more money than you'd like to spend then there's no mental work-around for that!
