Nope, but how about this red car instead?

I haven't touched PRID Cliffy in years because of the shiny FE figure. Man, I've been missing out.

Since you have both, how about we make a swap for the head off of my GDO for your FE and then YOU have the GDO and I have the FE :-D

Sorry no, I sold me GDO when I bought the FE. Also the colors don't match at all, the GDO is a much darker red almost maroon.

The funny thing is that both the PRiD Cliffy and Bulky have aspects better than the FE figures. If only there were a way to combine the two to make the perfect figure.

I am looking to sell the PRiD versions if anyone's interested. :ic$:

You know my Prime collection is special to me.

I'll ask this question here then add a follow up question open to whom ever:

If you could only keep one and only one Transformer figure, which one would it be?

Mine is MP Optimus Prime cause he filled a several decade long void of me wanting the G1 OP.

Follow up question; if you could only keep one set/collection of TFs which one would it be?

Mine would be the Prime figures. Those bots are responsible for getting me into collection TFs "hardcroe" and quite frankly are lovely figures and arguably the pinnacle of TF engineering and design. I nice mix of Movie figure complexity with generations charm. Even the "basic" deluxe Cliffjumper is more interesting to me than anything that CW or TR has given us.

So, if you could only keep one figure, your desert island figure if you will, what one?

And, if you could only keep one set, which would it be?

My takara colored mp-11T and masterpiece

If I only had to keep one...damn, uh...don't know if this'll count, but this.

As for a collection...TR. Because they're my largest single collection, and they're fun. Masterpieces are more for display, at least for me.

I won't wishy washy this for you this time Cary :lol:

Desert island? G1 Galvatron. Preferably the eHobby D62S version I have. I love those crazy Japanese ramblings :lol:

All he lacks in articulation is head rotation/up/down, thigh swivel, and full Van Damme. He's got errything else!!

As for SERIES of figures..probably MP. Just as an overall awesome set of things.

I have the perfect solution for this game.

If I dumped my entire collection in the sea, it would form a small island. Then I would just strand myself on it and would never have to pick a favorite.

Cake and eat it too, bitches!!!!!!! :lol:

I wannabe on Cobotron's Island!

My keepers....MP Soundwave, and Titans return as well. Too much fun...

Keep G1 Jetfire (might be influenced by my love for Robotech/Macross)

Keep my Classics collection. Pretty much all other-line great figures end up in my "Classics" collection. (I try to find other, obscure characters to have represented by those figures.)

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm............ :-?

I don't know if I could decide on the one figure.... I can narrow it down to 3 if that helps?
MP28 Hotrod, Transmetal 2 Dinobot, and my beat up childhood Optimus

Line... not as easy an answer as you'd think. Definitly between MP and BW, leaning more towards BW :-?

Yeeesh, Cary Ze One getting tough in the questions department!

Figure.... hm... Nightwatch. He is my favorite and best overall.

Line: movie lines... RotF/HftD if you wanna get snippy

Hmm...tough questions. Assuming 3rd party counts as "Transformers" it would have to be Maketoys Striker Manus or Mastermind Creations Kultur. It depends on the day really. If they don't count it would be UW Computron. Five excellent bots in one. Loopholes!

Might be too vague but I'd keep my CHUG(and all the other letters) collection. If I had to narrow it down it would be MTMTE/IDW.

A slight mistransformation of CW Prowl to give him that classic look. I'm sure I've posted these before, but what the hell?

So I brought RiD GA Grimmy with me to work and then decided he needed some red panel lines and highlights. Snuck a few black details in for fun.

Ok first, the boring stock image. More yellow, less metallic orange.

And now the new and improved!

First things first, that Primus awful insignia had to go! [-(

Yeah he stole that gunsword from Breakdown.

DINO MODE!

Argh, it's a pirate's life for me!

I'm still considering adding additional red panel lines to his tail and dino arms and I'd like to do some work to his dino head, but those red eyes are keeping me from lining him in red. Maybe black eyebrows? Whatcha think?

Thanks

I'm very happy with the results. Customizing is like eating potato chips. Anyway, it was a lot of work with those tiny lines, but damn it didn't take but a lick of color to really jazz up a figure.
