No Missiles

Postby BeastProwl » Wed May 23, 2012 11:02 am

Motto: "Mine's a Sparked forged from chaos"
Weapon: Razor Tipped Wing Swords
Look at the prime line. Not a single figure has that dumb missile firing gimmick (Accept maybe the cyberverse playsets)
But none of the figures in the main line have firing missiles! I think this is a step in the right direction, do you guys agree?

I'm not really a fan of the firing missiles myself. It can be vaguely cool, I suppose, but missiles are generally just something to lose, since I don't tend to leave them in the guns, because they'll inevitably fire off somewhere random.

I wouldn't call this a step in the right direction weapon-wise:

depends on the figure. I think mindset/hailstorm would have looked weird without missiles . but I do get your point I have been looking for rotf ratchet's missile......though his gun does look more accurate without it.
Wrestling is just a male soap opera, though less believable.

I don't see what's so bad about firing missiles. Certainly not as bad as needing a Minicon to fire said missiles, ijs. =;

I really like missiles that fire but only if they look like a missile, unlike classics Rodimus with his fire missile. If they dont fire I would prefer them to be molded to the launcher like the Masterpiece seekers.

I'm inclined to agree that for the most part I can do without firing missiles, though there are certainly some exceptions ;):
