This is why the FOC is my favorite design, I love the giant fist truck, and it makes him so muscular in bot mode too.
The mold has a really good amount of articulation as well. It's a fun figure . Linebacker Prime is less fun by these standards. A little fiddly and was marked level 4 on difficulty, back when they were doing that. It's true, there are a lot of panels and such that needs to be moved around and lined up.
I've heard people say that they think that, like that Universe Galvatron, that Prime was meant to be a voyager but was shrunk and that's why he is so complex. Not that I mind complex, as my movie taste shows

I like complex bots for the mental and physical challenge and I like simpler bots for the funs. Fortunately I can have it both ways :DANCE:

Defender of the Child

Reminds me of this bot.

He would be a great companion! i think Leo Prime works well with Galaxy Force Optimus Prime too

News Credits: 1350 · by **ZeroWolf** » Wed May 27, 2020 3:31 pm

And the original Primal Prime as well

News Credits: 1642 · by **D-Maximal_Primal** » Wed May 27, 2020 3:40 pm

True, he is sort of on my watch list for a later day

Look who decided to show up 3 days after his charge was refunded and 7 days after he dropped off the Fedex radar

Still need to crack him open, I got a little distracted by a local pickup from this morning:

He completes my UT Megatron trio!

FedEx deliveries are being a real bastard right now. Well free toys :DANCE:

That's what I'm thinking, free Scrapper isn't too bad at all!

Yep! And at this rate, I might end up with between 1 to 3 Overloads!

Well one to combine, one for alt mode and one for robot mode

Maybe! Or maybe 1 for robot mode and 2 for combined modes! We'll see, I feel pretty confident that if that Devastator set is real, I will buy it again

News Credits: 1350 · by **ZeroWolf** » Fri May 29, 2020 5:48 pm

I think it is real, just that it wasn't supposed to be put out there yet. Question is, what deco? The rumoured price is higher then if you bought all seperately, so who knows what that extra money is being put to

News Credits: 1642 · by **D-Maximal_Primal** » Fri May 29, 2020 6:29 pm

I'm hoping some sort of battle damage/rougher look to the figure, make it more weathered. Or make it a set of alternate figures/repaints

News Credits: 1642 · by **D-Maximal_Primal** » Fri May 29, 2020 6:34 pm

This might be one of the best toys ever made

News Credits: 1350 · by **ZeroWolf** » Fri May 29, 2020 6:42 pm

You'll find no argument from me on that opinion!

Ready for this monster haul?

I went to a friend's today, and he was emptying out his storage unit, with insanely cheap prices (friends and all, plus the ENORMITY of his stored collection). I picked up and cleaned out.

First up, Energon Cliffjumper, Ironhide, Rodimus, and Quickstrike, with Armada Wheeljack, Skyboom Shield repaint team, and Dark Saber present. Also Armada Rhinox, and bonus Minicon missile launcher.

Up next, Cybertron Menasor, Galaxy Force Hot Shot, Dirt Boss, Scattorshot, and Leobreaker, and bonus minicon in addition to Menasors.

On movie related items, we have Leader Brawl, Tomahawk, Stockade, Depthcharge, Hailstorm, and Dispensor!

And finally, Alternity Skywarp, Takara First Edition Bulkhead, and after Burn's article about Rumble, Alternators Rumble!

You lucky son of a gun. That's an amazing haul!

Come on Decepticon Punk!

News Credits: 1350 · by **ZeroWolf** » Mon Jun 01, 2020 2:49 pm

Good use of that leader Class brawl you got

great job!

News Credits: 1642 · by **D-Maximal_Primal** » Mon Jun 01, 2020 2:52 pm

Thanks! He sort of works as an MPM stand in, he's a chunky boy!

Not sure where he'll go either, to the MPM shelf or to the movie cons shelf

News Credits: 1350 · by **ZeroWolf** » Mon Jun 01, 2020 3:03 pm

Do you already have a SS Brawl for the movie con shelf? If so I say put brawl with the mpm. Can't see them bringing out a mpm fir him in a while given that we've got screamer and now Ratchet coming out

News Credits: 1642 · by **D-Maximal_Primal** » Mon Jun 01, 2020 3:23 pm

I do, I have almost the entire SS line!

I now have the trifecta of Brawl too: deluxe, voyager, and leader. deluxe was my movie Brawl from 2008 all the way to the SS one.

I think he might go to the MPM shelf. I think Alternity Skywarp and Alternators Rumble will be going to the MP shelf too, they don't really go anywhere else!
