Has anyone actually gotten the Galvatron helmet upgrade? I worry about the durability of the plastic, especially because it looks like you need to take it off and put it on every time you transform.

I got the Fallen sticker set with the faceplate. My first one arrive already broken in 3 pieces. This was more likely due to them packaging, it wrapped in foam and stuck in a simple envelope with the sticker sheets. The replacement arrived intact and was packaged much better, but parts of it were so small/thin that I was glad once I had it glued on so I wouldn't break it simply by handling it. I'm still extra careful around the head.

For Galvatron, I'm wondering if some of the extra bulk on the helmet is simply for strength, especially if you have to handle it every time you transform.

That Flame set is friggin' bizarre and I love it. Bit of a departure from the Tank form, but I appreciate the use of the big-gun-strapped-to-a-space-plane as an 'update' to that.

I also really love how well done the face sticker for Skyjack is, you wouldn't even know Air Raid's noggin is behind that.

Now I'm gonna have to find a CW Scattorshot...

Man, those Fort Max stickers are expensive. On top of an already rich-kids toy figure.

I clicked Flame expecting the crazy Marvel Autobot guy from those zombie stories. I want a toy of him!

Face stickers have not worked well for me in the past

MyFigureCollection.net collection · by **Emerje** » Wed Feb 22, 2017 6:14 pm

I kinda just want the window stickers for Fort Max, they're very striking in the alt modes.

The 3D stickers on Soundwave are phenomenal! I really love the look of the speakers with the honeycomb grill.

Not crazy about Skyjack, that mold would have worked a lot better as Hooligan with enough orange stickers. Clever work with the head, though.

Flame is just weird and combining to form Inferno is just bizarre. I get the word play, but why not another Autobot like one of the Sparkabots? Guzzle would have been cool.

Do you have them? Are you speaking first hand? The set is on it's way to me, and I am on the fence about those speaker stickers. Excited to figure it out though.

'Friad not, I don't even have a Soundwave yet, just an observation.

Check your local target stores. They are lousy with soundwaves around here.

In general I love their stickers, and I even have their city upgrade for the G1 Metroplex. For me, and I don't know if this is anyone else, it seems the stickers for Fort Max seem a bit... cartoonish and out of place. Some seem great, such as the graffiti ones... but in general, there seems to be something just a bit "off" about the art. I dunno how else to express it.

Oh, no, I've found him a few times this week, but I bought Voyager Optimus instead.

Personally speaking I absolutely that Megatron set. Those WINGS! And of course, the obligatory Autobot symbol

Bloody hell though, Ratchet just kicks it out the park.

Thanks for the new Kurona. Wish I would have waited a few days to place my order now. Just putting on Mindwipes as I read this.

News Credits: 41 · by **Cobotron** » Sat Apr 01, 2017 10:08 am

Ahhhhh. I've been waiting for this update. Couldn't wait to see what they would do for Megatron. And it does not disapoint. I thought for sure they would do the G2 trailer for Prime though. Maybe because of Hasbro's deco for the Velocitron set they didn't? Oddly the set is giving off a movie vibe with those flames.

And YES! That Ratchet set is the bee's knees!

Just started labeling TR Hot Rod last night. He is looking HOT!

I donno - the standard issue labels are already getting damaged under light handling. Putting more stickers on them could only lead to more shredding...

News Credits: 2 · by **Insurgent** » Sat Apr 01, 2017 12:45 pm

I'm still patiently waiting for my last order to come in. But the Megatron one does have nice wings.

News Credits: 14 · by **DecepticonFinishline** » Sat Apr 01, 2017 1:02 pm

Dang! That Ratchet lookin' goooooooooooood!

Also, lol, at the not-so-passive aggressive stance on RumbleV.Frenzy.

As good as it looks, I'm just not that crazy about spending $12 to update my Megatron. But eh, those autobot symbols and chest detail...
