Well, I did promise pics. They might not be as high quality as Seibertron's of course, but let me know what you think. Of the scene that is, not the quality of pics

Ah, the thrill of the battle!

Tried to get the look of Bumblebee's first transformation from the preview, when he's smacking the ground.

I love how Brawl can take on so many 'bots at once. Wait till I've got some flyers, those little launchers are going to be facing skyhigh.

Wish his left hand would rotate so he could be grabbing Barricade's head.

Looks like Ratchet is doing Ironhide's job

But how can you now race the slot cars around the track?

Nice setup, Im glad you went for the simple track setup, and not a multi-tiered/overpass type thing, as cool as it would have looked, I doubt those little plastic supports they pack in would be able to hold the weight.

Awesomesauce; Use it, you know you want to.

Exactly what I thought. Just wish Blackout was bigger. Then it'd be perfect.

Cheers! The flames just didn't seem right with the protoforms, but coming out of a big-ass tank barrel, perfect. The 'explosion' effect I used to use was Classics Rodimus' missile, but I didn't seem right being blue. Thank you Protoform Starscream.

And luckily my Bumblebee isn't broken, though he does look it doesn't he? Glad I could help giving you an idea.

It certainly does mae collecting more interesting.

Elita One wrote:Awesome displays Mulla mate. You ever thought of doing webcomics with the toys mate?

I did once, but decided against it due to effort. And plus, once I get a figure in a pose I like, I hate changing it because most of the time I can never get it back to how it was. Well, I probably do, but in my eyes nothing beats the first time you do something.

He is? I don't think I want to ask too much about this actually, because I'm guessing it's a spoiler for the movie.

I did try it actually But I didn't have enough parts, not enough room, and worked out it was better to keep things simple. It was the same setup I had for my Classics battle.

Next problem I have - When I get the rest of the movie line, who do I use in the battle scene and who stays in the bookcase next to it? Ah, decisions!

No spoiler, I just don't see Ratchet kicking anyone's ass. Ironhide on the other hand I think would go very well there, pointing his huge gun at Brawl

edit: or perhaps one gun at Brawl, the other at Wreckage.

My dear, you have just answered one part of the question of what to do once I get more figures

Cheers!
