Rodimus kinda bothers me as a Powerlinx bot, he is so close to being the best powerlinxer out there, but his shirt mode isn't posable at all, and in pants mode all his stuff gets in the way.
I still think Inferno and Mirage are the best powerlinx pair

Yeah, Rodimus is the most cumbersome in either mode. Though Downshift is pretty annoying to. Even in shirt mode, his own arms get in the way.
Inferno I think is the best one, pants and shirt. Mirage works as Pants more than shirt though.
Towline however is the cleanest Shirt out there since half his mass goes with his roving base.
Picking him up now and comparing him with the current deluxes he's quite heavy too in his van mode.

Mirage works so good because he makes a highly posable shirt or pants. Inferno's only holdup is his pants mode has no knees but is very solid. I have those 2 together, and Rodimus and Downshift together, and then the police decos of Rodimus and Mirage.
I also have the larger Ironhide and Cliffjumper. Those 2 are interesting, they are both so nearly good in both modes but not quiiiiiite there, but very close. And their combined mode can kill people.
Towline is really nice, I have him in just his van mode, it looks so nice and it's good and tidy too

My favorite is still WingSaber. Even if he is a brick on his own.

ZeldaTheSwordsman wrote:Sorry Emerje, but those Action Bases aren't really going to cut it. They're designed for 1/144 and 1/100 scale Gundam kits (5" and 7" respectively), and I know from the junkers and partials I've got that Gundam models are generally on the lightweight side. Those stands might work for some Mega/Voyager figures, but that's the most I'd bet on working. Even if they could take the weight of the larger classes, which I doubt, the reach would be an increasing issue.
The heavier, more expensive stands designed for the 1/60 scale (~12") Gundams might be up to the task. But I would want to see that tested before committing.
Then there's the question of how to attach them to Transformers...
In my case, I was also wondering specifically about clear flight stands.

Even at $80 that figure is worth it if it's complete.Emerje wrote:Rodimus Prime wrote:For $30?! Daaaaaamn...
But how many parts are missing that will cost another $50 to complete?
Emerje
He's missing the gun, the missiles, and the key. The gun's absence is inconsequential, since I can just grab Megatron's when I want to play with him; in fact, the gun with my Megatron is actually a Galvatron gun.Emerje wrote:Rodimus Prime wrote:For $30?! Daaaaaamn...
