We have to have ball joints, so they can swing up out of the way when you kick them for us and come back down later.
Hate the players, love the game.

Well, since I have Pretenders to the Throne, it seemed only too appropriate to get as many of the originals as I could :mrgreen:

Iguanus
Bomb Burst
Bugly
Submarauder
Finback

I tried to get Skullgrin, but upon my checking there are two of them? How does that even happen? Anyway, moral of the story, I have Skullgrinnumbertwo.

Also, I have Raskolnikov and Cunégonde, who are canon in their own literary universes.

I've always happened to like to have a few mechs on my team with canon names; I try to keep it to four or less at a time, but there have been times I've had five. I don't mind people having canons with the wrong alts (since the current alt system is so screwy and so many of the alt types stink); It DOES bother me when people have canon names when they're on the wrong faction. (And before anyone says anything, Grimlock has had both a toy and comic appearances as a Maximal, I gave up Optimus Prime and Bumblebee when I switched).


See, that's how I feel about it. However, I really like having the Pretenders team, but I also like the Predacon variety of alts a whole lot. I'm torn between my Beast Wars childhood *much like Ryan, I wouldn't be here but for BW* and the the awesome reputation of the Decepticons. Breaks my heart.

There's 2 ways, one has been inactive a very long time, or one is actually Skuiigrin with two capital I's instead of lowercase L's since they look the same.

A lot of names became duplicated in the reset bug from june this year too. There are a shedload of duplicate canons running around now.
