I'd be of no help between your decision between Sandstorm and Half-Track. I picked Half-Track solely because of his blue colors and space theme. I'm biased like that
Top 5 Priorities:
1) BW Neo X-7 Elphaorpha
2) BW II VS-18 Powerhug vs. Autocrusher
3) Universe 2003 Night Slash Cheetor
4) RiD Landfill (regular, not the yellow)
5) BW Convobat (red) & Megalligator (purple)
Also looking for Arms Microns, especially Shadow (Gora & R.A.), Hellflame and Shining (O.P. and R.A.).

Honestly, Sandstorm and Half-Track are pretty much on par. They have the exact same plastic lay-out and paint-apps sake for the colour itself. Half-Track features an Autobot/NEST symbol on his vehicle hood instead of an Autobot symbol on the chest like Sandstorm. That, and his head has more coloured stripes than Sandstorm. So it's either the different human partner (both have a unique sculpt not used anywhere else) or the general theme of the colours.

I should have been clearer: the photo above is what I got today, Sandstorm and Icepick.
Thanks for the help, everyone!

Half Track by far is the best, but then again, I love Space.
So in reality, Sandstorm/Half-track are steals for the price.
They both very articulated and can pose very well, but also have a bunch of modes,
a lot just made up ones lol.

Sandstorm and his repaints also have a decent "Powerloader" mode for the HA humans. Also, the humans that came with the HA Basics are pretty darn close to being "in scale" with the vehicle modes of most car-mode Deluxes from the 2000's - they're close to 1:34 scale, and most of those car-mode Deluxes are between 1:30 and 1:37 or so.

All this talk of HA Basics makes me very disappointed Seibertron doesn't have galleries of them all.

Well, perhaps Seibertron will find them for cheap at some point and do some more of his amazing work, eh?

Actually, we do. They're in the
Dark of the Moon section, as it's not a separate line by any means. It doesn't list all of them, mind you.
