I always go back to vector prime for a good example, but he is technically from over a decade ago. In terns of recent toys, I did find Leo Prime to have surprising substance.
And of course, Omega Supreme from a few years ago is a really good substantial toy, as is commander class Jetfire.
As for the G1 toys, I have found some of them to be hollow too, like G1 Hardhead. That dude is all kinds of hollow, more so than many modern toys.

Also, regarding those retro headmasters, is there a specific one (s) that's/re better than the others?

Oh, and about the headmaster, if you just ask for ONE headmaster, that mean any Titan Return guy would count, right? Might as well get the Amazon exclusive Transformers Generations Legacy Wreck ‘N Rule Collection Diaclone Universe Twin Twist. It's pretty neat and way cheaper than the one into the "right" color. Note that in the official lore, Twin Twist was never a headmaster. It just that in Titan Return, EVERYONE and their pet dog was a headmaster.

Thanks! But I was referring to those retro style box figures. Is there a specific one or two of those that's best? Thanks again!

Any thoughts on Siege Apeface and Earthrise Snapdragon?

What about the Siege Astrotrain and Legacy Blitzwing? Looking for good leader class deceptions.

Astrotrain is quite nice and fun, despite the train engine having a "small nose" and the shuttle having a chunk of vehicle missing on top. If you can find it for the price of a regular leader, he's worth it.
However, if you can manage to get the Velocitron Galaxy Shuttle for retail price, he'll be Skylinx's perfect partner.
As for Legacy Blitzwing, all he got is his bot mode. The tank have a p3nis and the jet is just a big mess. I'd buy him only at 50% off and even then, I'm not sure. IMO, the best Blitzwing so far is the Titan Return voyager. Because he's now "out of date" by the recent leader, he should come cheap. Same thing with Titan Returns Astrotrain. He have a weird train mode, but the shuttle is perfect and he should come cheap. He's as tall as the leader, but he's very thin.

Did you watch the Hasbro Pulse event today? They said "Omega" when referring to the next Transformers Haslab:

Color me curious.

Anyway, can you please tell me what the depth (including that butt flap) of the combined form of Armada Optimus Prime? I can figure out height and shoulder width easily enough. Thanks!
Mkdlmr wrote:How is Legacy Axelgrease? I'm kinda digging the design/look.
Also, I think I'll pick up Legacy Crankcase to have a Skids mold and increase my Decepticon ranks. Also, digging his nonnef upgrade kit.

Oh, I did see this recently [sorry to post a link to another news site]:
https://tformers.com/armada-optimus-pri ... /news.html
I do like the articulated hands, added weaponry and improved butt flaps [dunno what it's called - reverse loin cloth?].

EXCELENT CHOICE!
And with the fact that he's a H tank, he'll be right at home in a "Cybertronian" Siege display.
Also, if you ever get a ER Scorponok, the first two DNA upgrades would be essential. The Vanilla version is quite "incomplete." Especially compared to the G1 original. You'll also have to find a ER Fasttrack to go with him too. Thankfully, that last one is piss-easy to find.
