    Nice collection and setup, only thing I would change is putting Metro's arms up so it looks like he's holding up the shelves and the TF's. I'm hoping to have mine setup like that except I want Metro in a Atlas pose.

    Classics Bumblebee looks great in that launching bay. That gives me G1 nostalgia shivers. Nice!

    What figures do you guys use as Chug Stunticons?

    Edit: Can't find a good Motormaster, Should I just repaint someone?

    Just get SDCC Nemesis Prime. That's close enough given the fact that Motorbreath from the GDO line was essentially just Nemmy

    So far, the official CHUG Stunticons are SE Dragstrip, Henkei Wildrider, TFCC Breakdown, and that's it.

    It's weird we haven't got a Classics style Deadend yet, we gotten Gdo Deadend, TFP Deadend and RotF Deadend. Gdo is the closet we have but really it's a Wildrider homage.

    My "Road Rage Team" consists of Nemesis Prime (SDCC fig), Runamuck and Runabout (TFCC figs), and TFTM Stockade and Fracture.

    I don't think of them as the Stunticons - just a team of very angry road-going Decepticons.

    Were I to actually put together a team of Stunticons, then:

    - Nemesis Prime = Motormaster
    - Runamuck = Breakdown
    - Runabout = Wildrider
    - Replace Fracture with Drag Strip (Universe SE-03)
    - Replace Stockade with "red car" for Dead End.

    Several options there:

    - Botcon 2012's SG Tracks (which, amusingly, would mean 3 of the 5 team members are using the same mold)
    - TFCC's 2012 SG Drift
    - Botcon 2010 Rapido
    - ROTF Swerve with the Reprolabels set
    - GDO Swerve, if you don't mind that he isn't a car
    - Prime Knock Out
    - Universe 2.0 Sideswipe (with some stickers and a modified head, maybe)

    Of those, I think SG Drift would work the best if you want to keep them all as sleek sports car type vehicles (and avoid using the same mold three times), or GDO Swerve if you want a little variety in alt modes.

    You could always get Aveo Swerve for a Dead End. Not the best solution but it IS a solution of sorts.

    Oo, forgot about him. Such an oddball figure.

    I also forgot about TFTM Swindle. So there's two more possibilities.

    I think that Swindle isn't Classics enough. Me personally, Swerve is gonna be my Overdrive
