I never cared for Transmutate, so I'll pass on the figure. I like the mold, as well as the colors, but the character itself just makes it undesirable. I do like the choice for Protoform X/Rampage. However, he was big and bulky, so maybe Bulkhead's mold would have been more appropriate. I might get that figure, as I like the mold, the colors, and the character was very entertaining.

X wasn't fat, though.

Then again, this isn't Cartoon Rampage, but since Depth Charge is also a Deluxe there's sense in one wanting them to be the same height, at least.

The only thing that bums me out on the X figure is Megatron's puny(comparatively) gun. Sure I can give him another one, I just don't think he's complete without his triple barrel pink fuzzy bunny gun of DOOM.

Who's to say that he he had it prior to his Transmetalization? It could be that he got it only after he scanned his new body, like what happened with other members of the BW character roster.

Well gee thanks for telling me what rampage has to mean to me.

Hear that, third party companies? Make this man's and other fans' (myself included) dream come true.

Oh yeah...I forgot about that figure. If I get this Protoform, I will most likely get that 1 as well...

Ditto. I had hoped to get Depth Charge for Christmas in anticipation for this.

Well, if you want to "de-genderize" Transmutate, you could either not fold the headlight chestpieces into place, or shave the blue plastic connected to the supports of the chestpieces so that you can rotate them even further behind the chest.

Not sure if her gender really matters anyway since this isn't the cartoon version.

I mean, would ya'll still be splitting hairs over this if the toy's bio referred to it as a "he"?

Though, technically, these will be the third and fourth for me, personally, since I also own Cheetimus Primal's Dynobot custom. :mrgreen:

I'm willing to get Depth Charge and Rampage (maybe Transmutate too, if I like her enough) and shoehorn them into Classics. If Botanica is made into a toy, her as well. The rest of them are passes for me.

Great to see this coming to fruition; excellent idea for a repaint, especially after the good work with the Voyager repaint into Sharkticon Megatron.

Just for the sake of clarification, it's a deluxe class figure from the First Edition Megatron. I wasn't sure from your message if you were implying that this was a Voyager or not.

I look forward to slapping a 'con symbol on him.
