I meant to ask.... Those explosions people were using a little earlier in the thread, what are they and where would one acquire them?

I know MP shockwave's coming out, but quakewave still looks **** awesome. Maybe the price will depreciate a bit so I can get one finally. Now if that only happened with KNight Morpher Cyclops/

[MGrotusque]

The Canadian exclusive Ravage. Love this fig.

Yep, that golden sword again. ;) One of the best things I bought from eBay.


Great shots, MG!

[MGrotusque]

Look at the glory of that Megatron. Good pic dude.

Loving that Shockwave photo, MG.

Well, that sucks. Still, thanks for pointing me in the direction.

So my last post in this thread was obliterated when the site crashed, but here it is again!

Stormcloud was a G1 MicroMaster that got tired of being the size of Bumblebee's nostril, so between 1989 and 2008 he went to the gym and got swole (and also stole Tailwind's vehicle mode). The result is an amazing repaint of Universe Powerglide! I Didn't like this design as Powerglide, but in these colours and as a Decepticon, I think it's awesome! Amazing what a pallet swap can do!

Not so "Micro" anymore!

It just struck me as a funny image is all.

So a while ago I made this Kre-O dude and named him Slime Boss. So here he is again!


"I love my job."



"When I meet new people, I like telling them that my gun sneezed."



"Still enjoying that fur coat you got there? Loser."



"This is what you do then, is it?"

Slime Boss: "I sleep like this!"

"We... we don't sleep..."

Slime Boss: "It's also good for your spine!"

"We don't have spines..."

Slime Boss: "Try it!"

"No."



Slime Boss: "Here, have some!"

"No."

Slime Boss: "For real! It's a gift! Merry Christmas!"

"Why do we hang out?"

So I picked up one of those small Thrilling 30 mini Megatron figures and I noticed his head was about the same size and very similar sculpt as the leader class Megatron.

[Fires_Of_Inferno]

I said it before, and I'll say it again. I loved the character design for ROTF (twins excluded). The inhuman silhouettes and proportions are fitting for mechanical creatures who came from another planet. The monoped, serpentine look of Arcee, Flareup, and Chromia from the film are among my favorite Transformer designs from the film series because of this.

Chromia in particular is a fun design. She looks good in robot and vehicle modes, and the transformation from one to the other is fun. A bit fiddly, but still fun (more fun than having struggled with ROTF Optimus Prime the first time I transformed him, anyway)!

You know what's NOT a struggle? Checking out my Twitter!

People say TFs have been getting smaller through the years, I dont know...





Finally got AM Ironhide so I can finally have the actual figure the way it was supposed to be released by hasbro (or just about) with the right guns:



This does look like a damn good amalgamation of the Movie and G1 aesthetic.

And as per Kanrabat's advice, here is a fun way to have both Ironhide and Kup in the same collection using only what they come with.

Give this mis-transformation a try.

[SW's SilverHammer]

These two look pretty great together

[Cyberpath]

Took advantage of Shapeways' free shipping promotion to give LG13 Megatron this "Cannon Beefomizer."

Might spray paint it later to give it more of a shine.

[william-james88]

Still cant get over just how awesome and random it is that there are holes and tabs on the RTS Megatron made especially for MP Starscream to hold him in gun mode (thats some pretty crazy synergy between Hasbro and Takara):







Also, here is Optimus Cosplaying:

[Noideaforaname]

It amazes me that these molds never got repainted into Soundwave and Ratbat.

It amazes me that these molds never got repainted into Soundwave and Ratbat.

Especially since Soundwave did have that alt mode in Galaxy Force. However they did repaint the skystalker mold into lazerbeak.

[Noideaforaname]

Yeah, that Soundwave combined with Mindwipe looking decidedly Soundwave-esque, complete with an opening chest panel (that looks just like Soundwave's face), plus having a smaller figure to directly interact with, had me convinced we'd see a Generations Soundwave repaint, with a Ratbat-Skystalker since the Scout's very bat-like.
But then it never happened. Not Hasbro, not Takara, not BotCon, nothing.


Although I think there's a blue Mindwipe repaint somewhere, but as Dreadwing or something. I suppose you could gt him and that Laserbeak, though it's not quite the vision I had.

Call me daft, but who are those guys? I'm liking what I'm seeing.
