This is a smart idea if you ask me. I need two or three of those things for crying out loud.

Plus it's got a handle. So some of the bigger figures can carry it. Pretty sweet. You KNOW Onslaught would look cool carrying a couple of these.

Hmm, that's a good point, that would look pretty darn cool to have Onslaught carry it. And yeah, good place to store random weapons. It could even serve as a platform for shorter figures so they don't get swallowed up amongst the tall ones in a display.

So the small guns are for Blurr? The small ones look sized to fit in his holsters...but I don't know why he'd need them, since he already has two small guns.

I probably won't be picking this up because I'm fine with the weapons they came with, but it looks like a decent and affordable set.

Edit: NVM, I should read more carefully. My statement still stands.

Here is my "case" for weapon storage. I appreciate I-Gear trying to help (at a cost) but Id rather get the guns alone in a little bag for a cheaper price.

I usually put mine in a drawer (Along with Deathstar Darth Vader's horrid kibble), but it's always nice to have something cooler that your Transformers can interact with. :grin:

Also, your case is mighty impressive.

Me too, I really like the locker. That will be the perfect place to store random weapons that aren't in use.

I completely agree with you guys. I love their weapon sets and I can't wait for all of the Wrecker add-ons.

I was not that excited about this set, but $15 for 5 guns isn't too bad a price.

However, the case puts it over the top for me. I LOVE it.

I think I may even get 2.

I have so much random crap on the shelves, I'd love to have a nice appropriately styled case for the little bits that are all around.

Yep!

What the hell are we meant to do with it? It's too big for any one figure to carry alone. What's the purpose of that fold-out handle? To turn it into a giant riot shield that'll make every figure front heavy? It doesn't even look like the rifle can be fixed inside the trunk: it just seems to sit there.

It's too big, too hollow and too pointless. This best not be contributing to the cost of the set.

Or you won't what? Buy it?

I'm sure Igear will survive.

My question is, is there ANYTHING collectors don't nit pick apart and complain about in this "fandom"?

I personally think its cool to have a little storage bin for the extra weapons, eliminates the chance of the house just magically sucking them up when moving them from shelf to shelf or cleaning.

You can clearly see the phrase "or else..." was never typed into my keyboard. Of course I'm going to get this set. I'm just unhappy to be paying extra for something that I feel isn't needed and I wouldn't miss if it wasn't included. Apologies if my bashing of it offended its supporters.
