Just a picture from a review I aborted before Christmas, when I realized that I had done 21 reviews instead of my usual 20 before doing a group shot. I ended up reviewing her after Christmas though, using my regular wood paneling background. Still it's a nice picture. I ended up using this pose for my banner/signature pic though.

Oh my, is that the first movie Leader Optimus in the back? I could recognise those ankle warming wheels anywhere. Why did you have him out? Future projects?

Naw. He just lives there. One of the few movie toys I love. There's something real Galaxy Force about his chunkiness and his ratchets. Wish I had Nightwatch instead.

I have Movie 1 Optimus too. He's a cool toy! Movie 2 Optimus surpasses him in every way, but movie 1 Op doesn't have irritating sound gimmicks that forced me to remove the batteries.

I put mine in storage. Since I have AD-31, I think it's time to swap him for my Hasbro AoE Leader Optimus. I miss him...

Especially since you have Armored Knight.

For Movie 1 OP, I feel like it went down like this...
Hasbro - Here you go Takara, make him look like this.
Takara - Ahhhh OK?! How?
Hasbro - I don't know, do what you do best. Make him like Cybertron Prime.
Takara - Ahhhh OK?! We'll try.

... and that's what we got.

Yeah, I love him too, even though he's worth jack s!th in term of resale value. I don't care because for me, he's like some movie/classic hybrid. I also have the Takara PREMIUM version, with sivery and chrome goodness plus sword. What I was thinking, puting him in storage?

He's now standing tall and awesome next to my AD-31.

Prime had the day off, so he spent it with the boy.

Poor lil guy is all tuckered out.

Haha, that was amazing. That shot where they hold hands really looks like a quick shot of two moving figures caught in action. You have a great eye!

Not much posing here, but watev.

So, here's where I work:

And here's my TF display at work.

The chosen figures to display obey a set of rules. Can you tell what they are?

As you can see, I customised that Supreme BH Optimus. I removed the mandala thingamajing and I pimped his ride with some greenish gold paint. This custom was made at work too, when some mellow automated job was rolling.

So, wadd'yall think? Also, got any TF at your workplace?

Is the rule, quick transformation? So the boss won't catch you slackin'?

That Prime looks GREAT! Good job. Glad to see your customs aren't restricted to Starscreams. :lol:

Prime looks AWE AWE AWESOME without all that crap haning off of him.

Since I work at home, Ya! I got all my TFs at the work place. :lol:

Thanks! That Prime looked gaudy with that thing on his back and he was really lacking in the paint departement.

So, the Display rules:

1) Equal ammount of

and

, 2 of each.
2) No repeating lines, to repeating universes.
3) For each teams, one small, one "standard", one big.
4) Altmodes must be typical of their factions. For the

, one truck, one car, one mammal. For the

, one jet, one tank, and one monster.
5) Easy transformation to not get caugh slacking indeed!
