    Hmmm i wonder why

    And they're very clearly Earthrise molds i can omly assume Bee is in netflix because they had to make a smidge less thsn the other figures because of the VW licensing

    I took liberties by adding Reflector since Thundercracker is the resident shutterbug of the earth contingent knuckleheads.

    Soundwave is Siege. Wherever the base figure came from, like Bumblebee from Cliffjumper, is where the Netflix and Selects figures fall.
    I'm not foolish enough to believe people will follow the directive, but it's the suggestion.

    They arguably are not shellformers, but regardless they’re worthy of praise and not the parts bin.

    Sorry, I should specify with Netflix Soundwave. Although there's a Netflix thread, yada yada, earth mode.

    I'm still amazed by how good Bumblebee is. It really captures the character, and gets bonus points for being almost better budget version of MP-21:

    Also, the new Seeker mold has really grown on me. Yeah, I dislike the lack of some articulation points compared to the Siege Seekers, but I can't deny the pure G1 fun the new one provides.

    I did not expect to Slaine in here. I keep meaning to go pick that figure up. I missed him, and the others when they were originally released.

    Another ER contender in the year's top ten.

    Who's a gorgeous little fuel auditor? yer dang tootin'!
    This lad has only grown on me since I first got him. Like Laserbeak before him, Ratbat for me is the great redeemer of Earthrise's Micromaster assortment, with a facesculpt that is utter perfection. Good lad. Have an enegron goody!

    Gotta agree on both counts, Earthrise really has been a great line for those that want mini masterpieces out of the Generations line
