Flying whatnow?

Not at all Cramalamadingdong

I'm not sure what he was either.

Yeah, Crammy, the space blaster! I prefer to think of it as a flying cannon tho lol

Ohhhhh.... the "HAND GUN" mode

It wouldn't bother me if any MP (3P or not) omitted that mode

He’s the upgraded Megatron, he gots to be a gun yo!!

hmm...

You know what it might be? All of her faces are pretty much the same, except for one. The one I popped on has slightly bigger eyes (can't recall if the mouth is any different) and I thought it looked more "toony". I'll try to take a shot tonight of all of them together.

Sorry, took me a while but here's them faces! The first one is the one I use.

I just spent like 30 minutes putting together a post and it's gone. Stupid cache problems

I just tried to remake my old post again and that cache problem #$@%$^@^%#@^%#@$T%!@#^%$#@^$#^%$#@%$^#@%$&#^%#^$&#&&#^$#@^%&#^$@#@#^%$@#$#T%$^!@$

Fine Seibertron/Firefox. You win. No words, just pics.

I know dem feels ag loding a post, buddy -- I write a post in Notes and hit Preview more often than not just to update the cache in case of a disconnect/fail.

Love the pics -- I'm really enjoying the Studio Series. That fine attention to detail and similar (not "premium") pricing makes it easy to buy. What was that all about with TLK? Their figures were higher priced than our Generations figures, and as a result I skipped most of them. But these?! Yeeeeessss, please.

You know how I feel about Moonracer and Elita-1! I can't wait to get Novastar, too.

Ah yes, the old “Your post is gone forever” thing. I’ve just been selecting all and copying before I hit submit! Then, similar to Bodrock, I’ll put it in Notepad++ if I’m at my computer or just Notes on the phone. Blackout looks pretty awesome, I really wouldn’t mind a dopesauce helicopter.

I'm not bitter, I swear

Anyways... I wasn't excited about Elita. Before I got her, when I stumbled on her at the store (and Wave 2 is crazy scarce for some reason), or even after I opened her up.

But then I put her in Torso mode. And man, that's where she shines. I was actually really looking forward to all the lady limbs with zero interest in the actual combining aspect. Now I feel I'll need two set

Also, imagine how much nicer Victorion would have been with these molds instead of a bunch of repurposed dudes?

I'm a nerd, no doubt. But now I feel like I've crossed some even deeper nerd line...

Welcome to my realm!

I'm ok with it, as long as you can wear it. Otherwise it's too big to be too small for my tastes

YOU DO YOU SHAJ!!

It can be worn. Not sure if I will. I've got the Legacy Dragon Dagger too... dangerously close to a cosplay

It's no worse than me wanting this thing. Which I saw at the local Target on clearance for $30 something. Kinda sad I didn't buy it.

Is dressing up for the Renaissance Faire CosPlay?
If so, guilty as charged!

That helmet is a dope display piece. No shame in it at all, and no shame in hanging out in that and just your tighty whities on a Sunday morning either!

I don't have any high end replica helmets, but my Hasbro Clone Trooper and Boba Fett are proudly displayed the 'Tron. Would love to get my hands on a high end classic Stormtrooper helmet.

Speaking of, I strangely noticed while grabbing the Green Ranger helmet, a Star Wars (Black Series?) Darth Vader helmet. It looked to come apart in various spots and looked pretty great. I kinda want that too

I saw that Vader helm at Target the other day. Definitely tempting!

Oooooo... rabbit hole goes deeper...

Does anyone have any of those high quality Lightsaber's? I've always wanted Luke's green saber.

Ha! Funny you should ask.
My plan is, after PotPie, to take a break from mainline TFs. The first thing I'm gonna save up for is a dope ass light saber. I want Obi Wan's AotC handle with a green blade. Always loved that handle and green blades are the cool.
I have a Force FX Anikin one and it's nice, but it has it's issues. I want one of those 3P custom jobs.

My cousin builds those realistic lightsaber kits, complete with crystal and metal and everything, they are really sweet.

I really don't know what color blade I like more, it depends on the hilt sort of, but more than that. Red, black, and silver are my favorite colors, but I like the green and blue about equally as well. It's a hard choice.

I think Darth Maul may have my favorite lightsaber design though. I found it in a shop for $2 a few years ago and I still grab the thing and spin it around and deploy 1 or both blades at a time.

I'm big into melee weapons, specifically swords and hammers, so I could go on

Love the helmet, Shaj! I only got my first piece of cosplay (lol) the other day -- dat Tarn mask. I'm wearing it for sure.

I've always wanted to go to a Ren Faire. And a Comic Con. Hell, a frickin BOT CON! Or whatever they're callin it now.

I bought those fun lightsabers that light-up and can be bashed into each other -- not the quality ones. I would totally get them to display though.

Back when Master Replicas was making the ForceFX lightsabers (mid-2000's) I picked up Luke's Return of the Jedi saber (takes 6 AA batteries) and Anakin's Revenge of the Sith saber (takes 3 AA). Both are awesome, they both have some dead LEDs now though. Not long after, MR started making those sabers with the removable blade but same effects. Made me sad. There are definitely a few companies that make some awesome custom lightsabers, and even one company that uses the original Graflex flashbulb handle assemblies! Like D-Max said, visible crystal and all.

In other news, let's not get started on the MP reveals..
