Team Trypticon

Official, well not quite as I rotated the turret so the bit would peg tighter.

Just the tip

Still a lie

CLAWS and effect

Or would it be "Dr. Claw, I presume?" :-?

Might as well, I changed my username the other day for the exact same reason.

:-( sad no one will get this

Wipeout looked a little dusty, so I just grabbed him to dust him off. Didn't see any, dusted anyway [-(

And 20 pallets equals a truckload.

I may end up with an army, if the KO's keep making more. We'll see. Still wanna get the other molds as well. But them dollar monies yo! The Alien one is the coolest so far, or I'm just a fanboy.

Have I not posted pics of the blue one? It's pretty cool and cheap 8-)

Edit for the the wide shot to put them in perspective.

You may be on to something there. Maybe I should setup the other bots to be in more of vs poses. Maybe once Orhia is complete. NemmyP could use a good fight.

So I finally got around to opening Uniflector today, but first I had to put my last desk bot in it's "final resting place".

I'll make this brief. Refraktor (is that how that's really spelled) Reflector is a pretty cool large legends figure.

Has all the articulation for basic poses but feels lacking compared to some other Siege deluxes, so I'm going to call him a large legends figure. Accessories are fun if not awkward in practice, but that didn't hold me back much.

Shoulders and elbows are a little weird, but double jointed and almost 180° baby!

Space laser log is aight and gets the job done.

Has always reminded me a little bit of Jabba's skiff.

Yes, I know I forgot to fold the hands away :oops:

But we all know the real show is space block mode :lol:

Excuse the varying degrees of **** lighting. I hate artificial lighting and we have a tropical storm possible hurricane on the way.

Digging that underslung action.

News Credits: 1641 · by **D-Maximal_Primal** » Wed Jul 10, 2019 7:53 pm

You and I feel very similarly about him, he is definitely a good figure, better when there's three. And he definitely feels like a large Legends

I love how Hasbro is fudging size classes to keep scale. First Ironhide, then Impactor at being speculated near voyager size. Can't say a lot of people will accept the concept of a $20 legend figure.

Goes back to my question of whether or not fans will pay more for nicer figures or to out it better, a figure the way they want it. So far I've been fine with paying $50 for voyager Shockwave and $60 for three large legends. As long as it's what I want or seems like a fair price for the quality of the figure.

People have been paying more for superior figure for years and only seem to bitch if it's Hasbro's retail figures. WillyJ may be on to something.

EDIT: even though Refraktor seems or feels small, he is just as tall as the other deluxes like Prowl. He's also pretty dense, I should put him on a scale.

Ah the benefits of working from home!

starting dat hurricane party early

Refraktor is cool too!

I just can't quit this figure.

Gumpy bastard reminds me of "that ish dude" :lol:

I need to buckle down and find that iGear headswap for him. I'm never getting rid of the figure, it's too much fun!! And, excellent pose, sir.

Indeed you do. Thanks, but super lucky on that pose. His knee bend and the height difference of the two surfaces perfectly match.

Mechwarrior

Turret mode

Made an improvement after the fact. Flipped a couple "fingers" of the base backwards for stability. The neat part is how much freedom of movement each gun has in this mode. Sixgun truly is a pile of pew pew.

I think the real lesson is that I should stick to the basics.

I've said that Sixgun is the weakest of the weaponizers, and now I think that may not be fair. He may be my new favorite or I may just be a Metroplex fanboy or "Maybe it's Maybelline" :-?

That Kup is fantastic!

And fudging size classes, to me at least, is really working out in our favors

News Credits: 131 · by **no-one** » Wed Jul 17, 2019 3:52 pm

Well that's a big difference :shock:

I don't normally care much for Repro's full figure kits. I feel they don't work with the existing deco or they go to far, but this one is nice, compliments and feels like it completes the figure! I especially like the gun stickers. I wasn't sure about the mouthplate, but ended up liking it. I don't get the chest radio tuner at all, but it works :-?
