I have good taste so I only like the good figures! That said, I do have the Skywarp repaint of the Starscream figure in the OP and he's decent enough.

I really like the Classics Mirage, to the point I used a second copy as a base for a Devcon mod (it's more appropriate than you might think). But for the longest time, the torso proportions were slammed and snarled at by the general populace in here.

I'm looking at the ROTF Legends Sideways, the one recently used for DOTM 'definitely not Mirage'. Nobody seems to like it but I think it's cool. Awesome vehicle mode, strange but cool robot mode. I own all three versions of this mold and I think it looks great in all three colour schemes. Each to their own I suppose.

Yup I too thought he was s**t and at the time I thought that his part that covers the tank in truck mode and opens up looking like a giant rake and was attached to his arm. When I found out that it doesn't have to be held like a giant rake I had to get the Henkei version. He looks awesome sporting his 2 chrome pistolas. ;)^ :VEHI:

Transmetal 2 Prowl II.

Both modes look great and his transformation is simple but fun. I personally keep him in owl mode so he doesn't take up a lot of space on the shelf.

@Dean ML: I'm totally with you on RotF Leader Megs. I really dig him, especially in vehicle mode. It's one of the nastiest looking, most imposing/evil looking alt modes I've ever seen and all the molding detail really looks awesome.


Yes! Vehicle mode's incredible, even if it does just look like a folded up Megatron - that's how it looked in the movie, head between his treads and all.



The messed up thing with me is- I bought him, hated it, then sold it on ebay. THEN I turn around and stared at him forever right after Christmas, and, with some gift cash burning a hole in my pocket, I bought him again! Now I love the thing. I really dig the car mode, and bot mode really isn't bad, either. PLUS, coming to grips with the size issue I had about the FOC line, I decided to buy Optimus Prime. While I'm still not keen on the bot mode, I absolutely love the alt mode. Definitely gives me the War Within feel.

The kicker is, i paid retail on both at Walmart, then today I look on BBTS and both are going for like $7.50 each...... :HEADHURTS:
