Is that silver knight 2-pack Grimlock? Do the Iron Factory wings match his grey at all?
I'm using silver knight Grimlock as my Classics version, and would love to add the IF parts... but I suspect they're too dark for him.

Still waiting for them to "juice the mold" for the Takara version. Since the gray on Takara matches Planet X figures more than the Hasbro (any version) gray.

I can expect that from a 15 dollar hasbro figure, but from a 3rd party figure strugling to keep up with fansproject ? Game over planet x. Go do a trypticon before 5 more companies do one while you are napping.

Which Takara ones will you be using?
megatronus wrote:Also, I think it's funny that ToyWorld's actually seem to be the odd-company out insofar as meshing with other companies' aesthetics. PX & FP seem to go well together, but ToyWorld's is too blocky in a Classics/G1 sense to work. At least to my eye.

yes, seriously those throttlebots are amazing, and super fun. i have grind rod and aurora (both solid and awesome) and hard bone (flaws, but still love him). im trying to find an orion, and plan to get the black version as well.megatronus wrote:shajaki wrote:wait what?megatronus wrote:I like ToyWorld's take so far.

When I first got Hegemon, the arms were kinda floppy. And it seemed like just after a few poses, the knees started giving. So I checked, and lo and behold, the teeth in the ratchets were wearing away. So I sold him. Bought another one. Same problem, so sold him... same with the third.
After 3 times, I decided that was it. The mold is awesome. The build & quality? Atrocious. I haven't touched TW's stuff since (partly out of fear, partly because nothing has really appealed to me). But their Dinobots might just get me back in with them. Their quality has reportedly improved significantly; people love those Throttlebots.

I like G1 Megatron just the way he is! He didn't choose to be a gun. He was made that way.
Dunno about you guys, but I feel a whole lot better about Leader Class Megatron knowing he'll have some Leader Class Seekers to hang around with. At least he'll look less out of place.
