me too. decently priced, properly sized minibots figures.
I prefer the larger scout sized Igear scale. It's just flat out more cartoon accurate. I never understood how anyone could consider penny racer sized cars in scale. The whole purpose of the G1 mini bot line was a gimmick to sell toys to kids with cheap parents. The scale was never meant to be taken seriously. I mean why would an A-10 Warthog be the size of a smart car ?
I understand that you can never understand other people's points of view or opinions. Which is fair enough.
Im trying to understand other peoples point of view, but in this case Im flat out failing to get it. Maybe you can explain why people want an A-10 Warthog to be the scale of a smart car. Toy accurate minibot scale was stupid in 1985 and its still stupid today. Im not trying to be offensive. This is just my personal opinion.

We know the G1 cartoon is your "bible" X and i can respect that but untill you have give the MTMTE comics a read you don't really know what your not liking , the comics are an amazing take on these updated g1 characters personality's and this swerve like synapse said is an excellent set with all the accessories.

Not a avid reader, but I do enjoy the comics that come free with the new Generations figures. It's just that gun...Ugh. Just because Swerve is a smaller autobot doesnt make him a toddler. They gave him a freaking clown gun. It looks like it's going to shoot bubbles for crying out loud. Wheelie's slingshot was bad enough in G1. This is worse in my opinion.

Leave it to Dead Metal to have the word 'Pronz' in his signature.

I'm more into bot-mode scales than alt mode ones, since those will always be off as soon as we have the likes of Starscream and Jazz being sold in the same size-class. The cartoon is very wonky on comparative sizing, as are the old comics, albeit to a lesser extent. The only relatively consistent sizes I had when I was a kid were the toys. That's a little different now that some characters get released in 20 different versions across all sizes, but I still prefer my little guys to be little. Powerglide is a great example because his entire character is based off a small man complex. He's the Transformer equivalent of Mighty Mouse. Classics Bumblebee is the absolute largest I'd ever want a minibot character, and honestly, he's a little too big for my liking, but works in my collection because of how much of a major character he is compared to some of the others. (And I still have my Japanese Legends BB in my Minibots lineup)
Especially with 3rd parties, although the new Hasbro Legends are catching up, I'm also really excited to get such small toys with such character and clever engineering. Sure they're no MP style panel-ma-doos, but toys like iGear's Rager or MTs Powerglide did some really quite cool things for that size of toy. They're pretty fun to just have sitting on a desk and pick up and play with whilst waiting for something to load on my PC or something.
They're also a lot cheaper than making every character in deluxe size, and I'm all for filling out my Autobot and Decepticon ranks with relative non-entities for a small price.
edit:of course, as I hit "submit" I looked around to see Deluxe Warpath staring at me.I'll hypocritically excuse him by saying that he got a size upgrade to match his larger than POW! life persona KABLOOEY!

It's FunPub. It's their specialty.

If it's Voyager or Eight scale i'll buy it in a heart beat. I'm not buying another deluxe scale Cyclonus. As I felt Hasbro got the scale too small for the 2.0 toy.
