DOTM Recommendations for Deluxes and HA Basics

Postby Stockade » Sat Jun 18, 2011 9:25 pm

Motto: ""Underwater, no one can hear Autobots scream!""
Weapon: Sunami Blaster
Well as much as I dont care for this line compared to the previous lines which was abit better I feel, but some of the DOTM figures are growing me, so I need some recommendations on whats good and whats not?
Right now, i only have DOTM Megatron, Shockwave, and Skyhammer with deluxe Crankcase nothing else, but for those who have bought most or all the DOTM deluxes what would be the top 4 to get? Also, some of the HA basic are really growing on me as well and what would be the top 3 I guess? I'm not sure how many HA Basics is out yet and how many autobots and decepticons they are either so i need help with that. Trying to get a Sen Prime in a few days to add to my collection, but just need some input anyone and everyone who has bought them.

Even though I haven't bought them, but my top 4 Deluxes would be:

Topspin
Starscream
Laserbeak
Thundercracker If anyone agrees or disagrees let me know, like i said i not have them

For HA basics I dont have a clue so i need some help there.

Motto: "When did I get this tattoo?"
Weapon: Thrust Gun
The best HA Basics would be Thunderhead and Whirl. The rest are crap to me.

I agree with all 4 of those deluxes, but being a slight optimist, I like them all, really. No, I'm serious, these guys grow on me. It helps to Kitbash :^)

I don't have any HA basics, so I'll list deluxes:

1. Topspin
2. Bumblebee (yes, Bumblebee)
3. Jolt
4. Ratchet
Please note: If you think I may be joking, I probably am.

Weapon: Fusion Cannon
I really like and have,

1. Sideswipe (except for the fact that he has no bottom where humans would stick their feet while riding in him.)
2. Barricade
3. Crankcase
4. Ratchet (His mechtech weapon is really cool also.)


5. Starscream (He's ok but not one of my deluxe favs.)

I want Laserbeak bad, but can't seem to find him in my area.

No HA ones yet.

It's really only the HA Basics that interest me from the DOTM line. Sandstorm is amazing, but maybe you'd prefer the repaint? Thunderhead is pretty good, but not Sandstorm's level, again, there's a repaint coming up. Haven't got the other guys yet, but Tailpipe looks awesome, and Whirl doesn't seem too bad either.
assembling a Neo-G1/TF:TM cast. Please PM if you have (or know of) the following at a reasonable price: Classics or Henkei Astrotrain, Sunstreaker, Sideswipe, or 3rd Party iGear Ratchet and Ironhide.
Also looking for Universe Repugnus and Overbite, Frostbite and Longhorn and any Webdiver toys.

I don't think so. I don't have the figure yet but by review he look like one of the best. I think Whirl is a base, but it could be a weapon, like Backfire.
