The diaclone repaints have surprised me by generally going Autobot, but I don't mind. I like Road Rage, she's pretty neat!

I'm looking forward to fossil fun too!

Jealous of Paleotrex. Mine has been sitting in my BBTS PoL for a few weeks now, but I'm waiting to ship it until Megatron and Cyclonus come in stock.

Some of them make sense but it's just with a name like road rage, you'd thought she would have been a female stunticon member

He is pretty neat, I love the T-Rex mode, though I haven't tried any combinations with him yet. I'm only waiting on Primal and Megatron from wave 1 now

You'd have thought!

Have some Cheetor. He is EXCELLENT

Got some stuff over the course of the past week and I can finally share it all.





That middle missile is for TM2 Tripredacus agent, completing him and crossing another incomplete bot completed off the list!



The head meanwhile is the Tailclonus head for CW Cyclonus, who looks extra awesome with a better head and finally a good name






As for the other Stuff, Axe Murderer Prime and the Mad Doctor are both pretty nice. First time with the Ratchet mold, and it's not bad, but I prefer the Siege one for sure.











Also showed Transmutate some more love last night. She is a fun mold and a good looking figure.







Beast Wars!



Speaking of beasts, here is my TM2 Megatron!




And finally, this Jurassic world 2049 movie is looking really wicked

Looking good as always D! Nice combination mode there with Cyclonus. Funny part about seeing Transmutate, I just recently dug mine out. Definitely cool use of that mold. So envious of that Megatron. That is one that is one my wishlist! I have a select few of the Beast Wars/Machine line but that is one I I would like to have.

Cyclonus has always been a work in progress, as I found other uses for limbs but still making sure all 4 of his were Lost Light crewmembers. I think the only real changes since I formed him back in 2016 were that he used to have Mirage as a limb, then Smokescreen, and finally Stepper. Mirage went on to finally form Optimus Maximus, and Smokescreen is the right arm to Infernocus, my Inferno torso combiner, along with Groove, Rook, and Air Raid, all of whom are extra to my standard Superion and Defensor with groove chest plate and Rook arm.

She is really good! I will pass on her Selects kingdom toy, this one is great.

Megs was a cheap fun grab last year, he is pretty neat. kinda limited, and I wish the dragon mode had some different choices made, but he is still really awesome.

Definitely neat to see different variations or ideas coming from that particular line. I originally collected that line but that was one that got the chopping block a couple years back. Still neat seeing cool creations from that line.

Megs is limited but as you stated, he is just awesome. Plus, I would love to have him next to my Optimal Optimus, that transmetal look is nice.

A pair of big boxes arrived today

Who's the combiner? Is that a white Devastator? Also 3p do Masterpiece level minicons?:either way, nice haul!

ZeroWolf wrote:Who's the combiner? Is that a white Devastator? Also 3p do Masterpiece level minicons?:either way, nice haul!

That is TFC Perseusm, who is a SG Devastator!

That little guy is actually Mohawk from TLK

Ah, cool, shame, thought the minicons were getting some love

ZeroWolf wrote:Ah, cool, shame, thought the minicons were getting some love

Nope, not in this case.

This box has also been a not very good experience so far. I opened 4 of the 7 things, and 2 were defective. Magnus is missing his weapons, and Bee has 2 left feet

Whats the returns policy like? Did they all come from the same site?

All the same site, I'm going to debate whether or not to actually exchange Bee. But I am already trying to get some guns for Magnus

Can you live with Bee having too left feet or would it impact transformation?

D-Maximal_Primal wrote:A pair of big boxes arrived today

One of these is not like the others

ZeroWolf wrote:Can you live with Bee having too left feet or would it impact transformation?

Honestly, it's right on the edge. The ankle will not tilt at all to the inside, so the right leg has to either be straight up and down, or not have the foot on the ground to be in any kind of A-stance. We'll see what TFsource says to my order question regarding Bee and Magnus

Hopefully TFsource responds with something good for you D! Side note, hows Mohawk? Been kind of wanting to get him but just haven’t done it.

Mohawk is really fun! I love the little asshole. Definitely worth the pickup!

Got in some stuff over the past week, including a truly awesome set from Rodimus Prime on the boards!







Got in some new Black Series and Marvel Legends stuff lately too







I got my Super Megatron at last, and he really is super. They went balls out with the retooling and paint, and they did an excellent job with him. Fantastic! Mine will always use the TLK face, that is an awesome thing





I'm going to start this post off by saying, I will never not be annoyed by the decision to put the G1 bots in the SS line.

That being said, I have gotten both Jazz and Scourge, and I don't think I could really be any happier with both toys.

Jazz was first, found him in Walmart, and he is excellent. A really nice little package with a fun transformation. I love swapping him between modes and posing him. He's just fun!

scourge is equally fun. I don't really care for Scourge at all, but damn if this toy isn't fun. They nailed the dracula cape wings as far as I'm concerned, and I love the pink fingernails. They did him justice, I have no issue with selling off my TR Scourge for him.

I still wish these would have been in Kingdom instead of SS, but as toys, they are good.











I secured my Galactic Odyssey Barricade last weeks thanks to LinaNui, and this is my first time with the ER Datsun mold. Overall, he's pretty good, I like the mold. it's solid, and the colors are pretty neat. I wish the windows were still translucent purple, but overall it's a nice figure. I paired him up with Frenzy and the 2 members of the Race Track Patrol to make a nice little G1/movie combo team






Into the Spiderverse!



And my new Marvel shelf



House/Powers of X 9th life showdown




My updated Shattered Glass shelf



Mohawk being awesome some more






These 3 go frightening well together



This an awesome combiner. and look at that light piping!







TARN






Animated Stunticons look great



And finally, a newly updated Star Wars shelf

I'm truly jealous of that animated stunticon set, fantastic haul D-Max!

Thanks! I succeeded in paying for that set entirely with stuff sold, so that was a huge victory! KO headmasters and Flame Toys kits really did me a solid there

Definitely a lot of good stuff there and a wide variety. As ZeroWolf said, good haul on the Stunticon set. Side note about SS Jazz, if you haven’t seen it, Toyhax has a pretty decent sticker set for him.

I'm actually good with Jazz's details, I don't see a need to do anything with him
