    when you see flame posts about how the previous lines were better because they were taller and or bigger in some way shape or form. People are already complaining that WFC-E Cliffjumper is small for a deluxe and that Hasbro is ripping us off etx. 20191114_160916.jpg 20191114_161732.jpg

    would you consider sixgun and cog as powerdashers and do you think a white repaint of grunt would work as slammer?

    So, I hadn't touched Siege Shockwave in months, but today I took him off the shelf and messed around with him for a while. I stand by my original assessment that this figure is fantastic. Best Shockwave that Hasbro has done. Excellent bot mode, G1 alt mode AND wicked cool spaceship mode, insane lightpiping, it's just perfect. I know the Siege leaders got a bad rep from the start, especially Shocky, due to the cost vs amount of plastic, but I don't regret paying MSRP at all. Now that he's 30 bucks, anyone who was on the fence has no excuse, haha. Seriously, what a badass:

    Was just browsing Walmart's site. Cel shaded OP and Megatron are due to ship tomorrow with OP pre-orders almost sold out. Mirage and Impactor are being discounted to $17.99 with Barricade at $15.99.

    I like Apeface more than I thought I would. In low lighting, the white plastic is fine. He pegs together far more solidly that I realized from pics so far.

    I had the idea to combine Ratchet and Six Gun, and I think it worked out better than I intended! 20191114_210449.jpg

    I brought Siege Ratchet to my trip in San Diego. I got more pics of him in vacation but here's a taste of things to come.

    Mine will be arriving next year but just to confirm this, is his dirty white plastic the translucent type? Or just solid dirty type?

    Ditto infinity Plus!

    Got Barricade today. That's three of the four Datsuns acquired. Just patiently waiting on Smokescreen to hit my POL now.

    I really want those forearms to be black. I was gonna paint them today but my black paint went bad.
