Silk is a wonderful figure. she's really solid and the plastic feels exceptionally good on her. Love the mask too, she's great!

For anyone wondering, those new stands on Pulse are diaclone Triverse compatible

these 2 are such a great pair, and compatible for double teammate riding abilities

I will never not love this mold

Silk is amazing, that is all

Wreck n rule, complete with some new selects figures

Iaconus made his way into the Cyberverse shelf. He looks appropriately large next to the rest of the Resistance

I never realized that MP Inferno's entire head assembly can move and now it's kind of weirding me out. I thought it was just his head that could turn inside of that thing.

Yep, both of them are articulated, allows for some really fun head posing

Fun fact: the Prosecutor has a 5mm compatible head.

And the Bailiff is awesome. Kranix Krunch!

Some sweet hauls there D-Max!

News Credits: 1642 · by **D-Maximal_Primal** » Sat Oct 03, 2020 8:12 pm

Got a pair of hauls today, my BBTS and Amazon hauls today. Some sweet stuff in here

Armorize Iron Man is a really cool armor. And I finally got the armor that was on my very first Iron Man T-shirt, truly special

The Cyberverse Skullcruncher is a pretty neat toy. posability wise it isn't as good as the TR one, but It has better engineering in my opinion

Integrated my Pit set into a shelf today, I was surprised it fit here height wise, but it's perfect. The Mercenary shelf now has the big Bosses themselves. All it needs is my Allicon and Bug Bite and it will be complete

I feel like I have corrected a wrong here with the Glass Gas Gun

And your reminder that this toy frikkin slays

Is that TR Pietro that Cliffjumper is holding?

It is, I ended up with 2 thanks to a Case, so one is by itself and the other has served as Classics Cliff's gun since it arrived. But at least he now has his glass gas gun

Shame he didn't come with a missile for Bumblebee to grab and mess him up with

Running errands today, I found this guy! Someone tried to hide him, but I found him, can't fool me!

Thunderhowl himself is a sort of lackluster toy. Both modes aren't bad, but so far nothing really to write home about. His transformation however is frikkin great. He quite literally folds in half in 2 separate areas. He's a lot like that type of calendar that is a cube that shows 6 months, and when you fold it around inside out and such you find the other 6 months. It's great

Now the more important part: Maccadam. Gosh i love this thing, he is great! Except for the ankle tilts, he is very posable, and his aesthetic is really nice. I love the headsculpt, and the colors are nice. I love how bulky he is, and the hammer weapon is great in his hands. He is far better than people give him credit for, he's great

Thanks to Maccadam, we now have 8 of the 13 Primes in a canonical body in toy form

And depending on your creativity, you can have a full team of 13 Primes with Maccadam as well

You should have included Rung in the picture with his Primes

So Thunderhowl then, this toy isn't really good. The best part about this toy is the transformation, it's great, but neither resting mode is particularly good. The Ultra class figure is the better Thunderhowl, no doubt in my mind.

And of the deluxes, I think Bumblebee ended up being the best one. I'd rank them:

1) Bumblebee
2) Grimlock
3) Arcee
4) Optimus Prime
5) Hot Rod
6) Megatron
7) Thunderhowl
