The original FunPub story had Cliffjumper meeting the evil Autobots. This version of SG hasn't so far crossed over into "G1".
I absolutely do this, especially since 3/5 of this years' SG releases are pretty obviously intended to be repurposed (Slicer, Flamewar, Delta Magnus/Magna Convoy). I just use those as their intended reuses and have come up with alternate names (or taken names from other minor/non-updated TF characters) for everyone else so they can coexist with their positive-universe counterparts.Nemesis Destron wrote:sol magnus wrote:Nemesis Destron wrote:Okay stupid question, being someone who doesn't read the books (comics) have the crossed paths with and if yes have all factions teamed up.... / ...?

So does anyone pair up their or figures....would that be craziness?

Interesting, anyone else care to comment?
Yup, that was in the original/FunPub SG continuity.Razorbeast88 wrote:I could've sworn I'd read something on tfwiki awhile back about SG Magnus taking his lot dimension hopping, and the SG decepticons teaming up with the autobots to stop him. Could be misremembering
chuckdawg1999 wrote:Let's be honest, most people are going to buy SG Soundwave because right now it's the cheapest, and easiest way to get the Earthrise Soundwave mold, the retool of Siege Soundwave into an 80s-style Micro Cassette player. Don't sell SG Soundwave short though, with a new head and a minimalist but sharp paint scheme there's a lot this figure has to offer those of us who already have the elusive Walmart exclusive Soundwave. While the price is a little high, it's still cheaper than what the other Soundwave goes for on eBay.
When the original Shattered Glass continuity started up by Fun Publications, it began properly with the BotCon 2008 comic story, in which the G1 Cliffjumper of the Classics universe accidentally arrived in the world of Shattered Glass. He first met the SG Autobots and was both confused and outraged by their sheer cruelty. Then he met the SG Decepticons, whom he couldn't believe were as good-natured as they appeared to be. Only after conversing with SG Sideswipe, who had defected to the SG Decepticons, and after witnessing SG Megatron take a bullet for him, was Cliffjumper finally convinced that this truly was a backwards world of heroic Decepticons and evil Autobots.Nemesis Destron wrote:Interesting, anyone else care to comment?

And unfortunately, Soundwave was the one I wanted the most. F HASBRO!!!

I dunno. A number of these Hasbro Pulse SG releases have sold out within not-too-long of time.sol magnus wrote:-Kanrabat- wrote:Nemesis Reformatted wrote:Review it all you want.

I have a feeling all these will be around for the inevitable 40% off sale at some point in 2023...

I'd rank Slicer as my favorite, that mold owns those colors, and the exo-suit was a great addition. He is a lot of fun, lots of options, and lots of fun.
Magnus is a closer 2nd. I am surprised at how much i like this mold as him, considering I didn't think it would work. It's ironic too, since i am not a fan of the Laser Prime mold I wanted him to use anyways. I love the sword, that added that extra bit with the color scheme to really push him up.
I'd rank soundwave 3rd, the colors on him are really sharp, and the headband headsculpt is really cool. It's a nice package, even if the price is stupid for him.
Flamewar comes in 4th, she is a good mold, and the paint work is awesome, but that just doesn't push her past the other 3 cause they were so much fun.
Blaster is last, mostly because he just doesn't have much going for him compared to the others. He's good, but the others just outshine him

I'd probably switch Magnus and Slicer, but I'm right there with you on the rest.

While he's talking about Series 2, Megatron is pretty good. I would probably agree he's the best...mmm except there's Jetfire. LOL. He's the best.
