He looks a lot like a Colonial Viper from the newer BSG show.

 

Looks like the original as well, just without defined engines. Basically a streamlined version of this.

 

Oh!

 

The leg chunks don't bother me that much because I was never that interested in a Tetrajet anyway. It's the robot mode I'm here for.

 

I like pcc undertow

 

I feel you on this one. The only one I bothered to get was Bruticus, and even then he's far from great. Looks decent, but a bit lanky. The bots he's made up of all kind of suck, aside from Swindle. Also, his arms aren't even strong enough to hold up Shockwave on my copy.

 

Power Core Combiners was a shit line, with shit figures and even shittier quality control.
None of the figures I got from PCC have survived the years at all.
Hell, when I got Mudslinger, he broke after began transforming him.

 

I prefer PotP Jazz to Special Ops Jazz
I wouldn't want to see leader/commander slots taken up by Marvel Comics Scorponok/Fort Max
TR Hot Rod > Legends Hot Rod
Selects G2 Megatron's head sculpt > Siege Megatron's head sculpt

 

I also prefer the Milne-ish headsculpt for Siege Megs, hope it gets released on a good deco of the figure at some point. I'd say the 35th Anniversary version, but given that they're pulling a Takara Masterpiece job and going super-toon accurate they'll probably stick with the Sunbow head.

 

Kinda like what would happen if Optimus Prime ate a trailer full of Shopkins? LOL

They're kinda stupid and a bit whacked with the bathroom humor (looking at YOU, Plopfather, King Toots, Fottle Barts, Must Turd), but if you have even the slightest spark of an inner child you can't help but smile a little inside, especially with the antics @iacon45 has had his get up to. (Poor Primal!) And isn't that really what this whole mess is all about?

 

I know I'm not much for animal-formers but, I think RiD15's designs outclasses Beast Wars and the Transformers G1. Barring Ratbat and the Dinobots. And the bunny rabbit.

 

Why did Hasbro decide to produce BotBots instead of Micromaster Blind Bags? Looking at how many BotBots Transformers they have released, they could have finished off all the Generation 1 Micromasters...

I mean, I get it, BotBots are cute and children would love them, but come on! I would like to think cars and planes that go to war with each other are much more enticing to people. However, I guess it is a different era; with all the cuteness and humour marketed to children these days, the good old good versus evil theme is just not as cool anymore...

 

I absolutely ADORE studio series dropkick. I not only love his transformation scheme and vehicle, but I'm also a fan of his robot mode despite it's inaccuracy. Maybe I just hit the QC jackpot but this guy holds together really well on my copy, and is super fun to pose around and transform. I'm really not seeing how everyone thinks he's trash (aside from the price-size debate, but I'm not gonna get into that)

 

Hang in there, bro--with Bayformer Tiny Turbo having run its course, if Cyberverse TTC's flop they may need something to replace 'em. (Though I'd think there's enough market to maintain all three lines of blind packs at once... TTC, MM and BB are three very different products meant for equally divergent demographics.)

 

Why in the actual Hell would you want blindbag/blindbox ANYTHING?!?!?!?!? Seriously, it's the most infuriating part of collecting. Anybody who was stuck with a half dozen WST Thrusts or Red Alerts could tell you that.

 

To this day I count my blessings with RTS Jazz, because for some reason I never had a problem with the chest connection on my copy. I can pick him up by his hood-chest, shake him like I'm some psychotic, flat-chested Anime girl assaulting one of my better endowed senpais in a fit of boob jealousy, and he holds together like a champ. There was that one time I was transforming him a bit rough and something popped at the little gears under his head, which had made him pretty loose, but all it took was one push down to make it pop right back, and he's been as sturdy as ever since then.

 

Life is like a blindboxed figure, you never know what you’re gonna get...

...unless you read up the codes or use your fingers and rub the bag. Buying blind bags online is a different story, however.
