    Ah! There it is. Thanks.

    He definitely said 1:150 scale though, rather than 1:50.

    Ohohoho, surprised I'm liking Smashdown's design a lot. Got two of Lionizer and like to dual wield melee weaponry. May do this with Smashdown as well haha~

    Any cool weapon combos? I made Cog into a cool weapons backpack that fits best on Hound (so far), and then combined a few weapons to make a spear. 20190218_005957.jpg 20190218_005908.jpg

    Mirage won because he was paired with Impactor. Impactor would have won whoever he was paired with.

    No idea but toysrus canadas offerings on the web is poor. They never had magnus and shockwave online. What do you need there? I could help you out if needed.

    Recently came across a picture showing that Soundwave can indeed basically hold a Boombox mode.

    And Hound has no problem carrying all of that weight on his back? He can still stand properly, right?

    I guess a few things im mostly liking in the siege line are above all else the general “rule” so far not to use stickers. I understand that stickers were used back in the day but in todays world there shouldnt be any especially for transformers and its finally nice to see a line that does not use them so far. I know stickers can be taken out but stickers believe it or not is one of the reasons i passed on a few toys from previous lines since they never look good imo and i know these are toys but their use made some look way too much like kids toys. We had seen vast improvements in other hasbro lines like marvel legends so its nice to finally see this being applied to transformers.

    The other thing is the sculpted lines and details that just make it seem more realistic and gritty, i kinda compare it to the lines and intricate patterns and detailing we saw on the ships in the first two alien movies especially the nostromo and sulaco, which i have always been a fan of. Like starscream for example, you can clearly see the intricate patterns im referring to and also on omega supreme. Also, the preference for sculpted decepticon/autobot insignias on skyfire’s chest instead of stickers (from the videos we have seen to me it looks like theyre sculpted). Yes, we are paying a tad more for these but its all these little details that show me that hasbro is really trying to give us more for our money than we have seen in the past.

    I got this set too. O rosme version of the. They're great.

    I think what I'm going to end up doing is having these 3 guys in camera mode, since the sheer number of accessories will make for a better looking one, while having the Siege Reflectors in bot mode with my 1984 Decepticons.
