Beast Megatron's dragon arm. I WANT HANDS DAMMIT!

You must hate Armada Thrust then.

They are improved 100x simply by removing the spring, and can even help give Dark Scorponok a sting to his tail

I can't think of any weapons so bad I can't find a purpose for, even if it wasn't for their original intention.

I usually don't mind the accessories because if I don't like it, I can just toss it. What bothers me are things attached to the figure I can't get rid of like Energon Shockblast and that brick he has for a gun arm. I would love the figure if it wasn't for that thing. I want to tear it off.

I came here to post this one. The actual toy itself? A great Deluxe all-around. Even has those cool wrist blasters for an actual weapon. But that claw? Oi...

Thirded. And ya know what? I don't think there are any hand held pincer claws I even like. Beast Wars Secon Galvatron? Keep it as a cape. Universe Longhorn(TM2 Ramulus)? Looks dumb and unwieldly. Beast Wars Buzzclaw? Better as a backpack.

Are there any successes in this category?

I have to say most of the Human Alliance line annoyed me. Though I thought the inclusion of the humans was a good idea, the execution of the weapons needing the humans annoyed the crap out of me.

I couldn't throw the humans away as I'm a completist. Not in a sense of needing every toy or version of it, but I need to have the weapons. If I lose a weapon or piece, I go bananas and tear apart my house and car to look for it.

Other than that I'd have to say quite a few pieces of the A/E/C line were crap too.

I get it.
I actually felt stressed out because one of BM Thrusts finger things has been detached. Every time I found it I couldn't find Thrust and vice versa. I just ran across it again and I know exactly the box Thrust is in. They will be together again very soon. I actually feel a little relaxed having that situation solved.

Glad I'm not the only one! It drives my wife crazy, but she's slowly understanding it's just part of my personality. I'm an artist and if she uses my pencils to quickly write something down, I sometimes just give them to her as it no longer holds that weird, special value to me.

Weird, I know.

What do you mean by "the weapons needing the humans"? I never included the humans in the weapon modes.

I didn't mean that in order to use them, you needed the humans. I meant the idea behind it. If I was fighting someone, I wouldn't want like my cat to sit on my arm with their claws out. It just doesn't make sense.
