If swindel had a head he'd look cool. Ill have to make one or change heads with one of my extra TFs.

So far I have Jazz, Brawl, Wreckage, and Bumblebee. I thought that was all that was out there for now... guess I was wrong! I plan on getting at least one real (non FAB or legends) version of each character. If only Swindle had a good head on his shoulders...

Brawl

Seibs... I noticed that Brawl's shoulders (or, at least the left one, in this pic) are not attached. Are you having the same problem I am keeping those tabs in place in his shoulders?

I'm having that problem with his shoulders. It's a great sculpt, but it's hard to handle and keep those shoulders in place. Oh well, I guess he's just on my shelf anyway...

Yeah, the tabs won't stay in place. I gave up so I just started taking the pics anyways. Thanks for letting me know that you are having the same problem, Roboto750.

Nice pictures Ryan.

After observing this galleries I've come to realize that the Decepticons have claws for hands while the Autobots have fingers. I am not sure if other people have pointed that out before.

The other thing that doesn't fit well for me are the feet. Most of the robots are walking around on points not feet. The movie designers had mentioned a while back that the robots were designed this way in order to give them stability. I can understand that, however, if these robots were real wouldn't their weight and pressure from their toes gore holes on the streets and on the ground?

Im not impressed with any of the figures (photos are top notch though).
They managed to make one of the nicest and sleekest characters in Jazz into a bulky blob of plastic. Swindle without a head still has the best head of all the movie figures, and the oversized claws where hands should be look rather silly for the most part on every figure.
Bonecrusher's feet are interesting, wonder how long they will survive in most kids toy boxes...

I believe that Jazz has claws. And yes, points for feet would be bad in real life. For one thing it would make balance/equilibrium a lot harder in terms of computation.

I've already got Jazz, and Barricade, and they are really awsome!!!!! I'm definetly getting Bonecrusher, and Brawl, but I'm not sure about Bumblebee, I agree GeidiPrime he SUCKS!!!!!!!! I'll wait for the 08 version as well.

by **Haymaker** » Wed May 16, 2007 7:28 pm

I'm probably the only one who'll say this, but save scorponok, I really like all of these. (and being the completist I am, I may get Scorp anyway)

Is Swindle digitigrade?
