I don't know which is which, I like the little grey one cause it looks kinda vaguely like a Delorean. The red one has the better robit mode though. I find them the weakest of the three, with the 'Cons being my fav overall. They seem to have the better realized modes all the way around and their combined mode is rock solid and looks like the most like thing it's supposed to be. I do find the battle guys fun in alt mode and their combined mode almost works, but I find it awkward in practice. I've said it once and I'll say it again; don't attempt a third mode if you can't pull all three off. I will say the car guys make some pretty fun and derpy pistols though.

CRAM! Buddy it's good to see you again!

If you're looking for a Voyager Roddy, you should hunt down that Cloud version!

I lured him a n for a sec.

And yes that Cloud version is sweet and I immediately got sad that I don't have the Cloud Starscream. Should've gotten him from BBTS when I had a chance.

I think the Cloud Rodimus is a great looking figure. It's honestly a really good match for his different modes

If you didn't know, I'm in the great white north for training. You know Swerve tagged along. I got a sweet tip from fellow board member Kanrabat on where to find the good plastic crack!

Swerve: "I'm mistransformed boss!"

A modest haul, but all things were priced right and in my want list.

Looky, one of them was never even released stateside 8-)

Zuper cool!

Love that Bludgeon.
And that Bat cycle.

Super cool!!

Man, I need to venture to Canada and check that place out

Indeed. I need to post some more pics that you've already seen.

It's super cool and the type of place I'd like to visit more often. The prices are nothing to write home about though. They did have in-stock a little something from every era - G1 to Siege, Hasbro to Takara and a ton of 3P stuff. Lots of Funko Pops, GI Joe and anime figures and such. Not worth a trip unless you're already in Laval, QC.

Super cool and super nice and super cold outside. I think it was down to 9 degrees today and apparently that's not very cold. I was wearing shorts and flip flops around the house last week, so it feels pretty cold to me.

That's how cold it has been here in PA all day my friend. It's not horrid though if you're used to it, but clearly you live in a temperature-wise more logical place this time of year :lol:

Yes I do but the worst place to be in the summer. You win some, you lose some. I want to say it was low 70's last week?

I had to buy a fluffy parka type coat for my trip. I don't normally have a need for winter wear. But we are planing a trip to Alaska next year for the Mrs' 40th to see the northern lights. Double duty coat purchase ;)^

Unfortunately nope, I am in the heart of the western side, Pittsburgh, right over by the airport!

Here's some poopy hotel pics (in no particular order) of that bat-winged Arcee. I really do love the BH figures.

I had the front wheel backwards just like in the Seibertron gallery. If you rotate it 180° the "bow" will clip on properly and very securely. Everything just looks better that way. I fixed it by the time I took the second bot pic.

News Credits: 1642 · by **D-Maximal_Primal** » Tue Mar 05, 2019 7:54 pm

I love that figure's alternate mode. The bat-bike motif just looks so cool on Prime Arcee. Great figure for you to pick up my man!

I'm very happy, happier than I would have expected. Not Laserbeak is a lot of fun and kind of weighty. Bludgeon was a total FoMo purchase, but I like him and I'm surprised how close his transformation is to this bigger bother-in-mold.

Glad you like Bludgeon too. Never got that mold, but I enjoy the RiD one.

Love that movie too, it's hysterical

RiD? Oh the RiD2015, yes I have the Shockblast deco. Neat figure and I like it better than Megatronus.

I was referring to the voyager Prime BH Shockwave mold as the brother-in-mold. The TF'rmation is damn near identical. I invented a contraction 8-)

Nice! I'm lukewarm on that Shockwave. He's not the most stable thing to me, but he is really damn good looking

I never touch my Prime shelf. It's in stasis just looking cool! But I agree, Prime BH Shocker is not the most funest figure in the world, but he looks good standing not being fun. Took me a long time to get him to stand and not look derpy. And all that Majora's mask bullshit accessories went straight into deep storage.
