Since there was some more SG collection discussion, I think I am going to rank the 10 figures from the collection.
1) Slicer - For one thing, his colors totally own his base mold. For another, Exo-suit was a fantastic addition, and there is a ton of good play features with that. He is just very fun and a great package. It also helps that ultimately he was the best character in the SG comics, a great character. I got a 2nd one of him today for the standard con shelf, he's worth getting 2 of.
2) Ultra Magnus - This one surprised me, he is exceptional in the color scheme he uses, and the skeleton head is fantastic. He just rules, and the sword weapon adds a lot for him. His character in the comics was also real good, if in need of more actual fiction dedicated to him. Really good figure, there is a reason I am glad I got 2.
3) Jetfire - This one rules because of the color scheme. That black, purple, and green just shines on him so much. He makes standard Jetfire look so bland. Add how big he is with the colors and color distribution, and you have a real winner there. And he was also great in the comic, maybe the 2nd best after Slicer.
4) Megatron - the new parts added to this figure adds a new silhouette and makes him a lot of fun with all the play features. The colors are also really nice, and rounds out a nice package.
5) Starscream - Again, a great mold, and the colors shine so brightly on this mold. The new sword weapons are also great additions, make him feel like a totally new dude. Well done there.
6) Soundwave - This is another great package, if overpriced. The colors are sharp, the minions are cool, and that headband is a great look for him. They managed to make that work out real well with him. Well done.
7) Flamewar - They did good on her with the paint work, and the addition of Fireglide was nice too. She is a good package. I think she ranks behind the others just because of how much more their colors shine and the new tooling most of them used as well.
8,) Blaster - One where he is a solid mold, as is Rewind, but he's just boring. He doesn't bring a lot to the table. So he's good, but not necessarily cool.
9) Blurr - as much as I love the head sculpt on this guy, his QC really lets him down. The leg joints, the arm sleeves, they just make him not a very fun figure to handle in comparison to the rest. The headsculpt is killer though.
10) Goldbug - This one ranks the lowest simply because he was the most boring release. He really should have used a different mold, like the Runamuck mold if we wanted size, or SS86 Hot Rod to homage his original form more. There was more he should have been compared to what he was.
