wich means Transmetal megatron to you n00bs out there!

nope, Predacon is a slight remold. He has Minicon ports and larger leg details (or smaller, as I don't own the original mold)

Ports and paint are the only differences I see

Hmmm...maybe mine is a fluke. if you have him on hand and an Star try messing with his legs a little, try the joint where you flip his feet become wheels

Sidearm Sideswipe has C-Clip atatchments on his legs

I Think bb looks better this way

don't know if everybody else have found dis,but after fidling with classics galy i've just found out his cannon mode(errr..i guess?)

Wow... that actualy works... and it looks a lot simpler than I would have thought of making it. Good job.

My take from that:

i noticed that there are fins on the back of transformer prime starscreams legs.

Where are they in alt mode? My bet is that they're supposed to be there on the f-16 mode mostly. Although that's is a rather random finding of yours.

Don't know about random... its in the instruction booklet... and I also found them the first day out of the box. NOT to crash any parties

Starscream's trying to knee your capslock button, that way we all rebel against you and think your raging, in an ultimate attempt to make you leave seibertron! It's the perfect Plan!
Accept, you would notice the CAPS, so his plan is ruined.
Starscream: AAAawwwww...

ha! it would not be a suprise if i read the instructions

If you extend the underside flaps of Straxus' tank turret in his "Base" mode, it really fills the mode a considerable bit more

loving gerwalk Seaspray. looks like ED209's bro.

you can put mech-tech weapons on DOTM Megatron's shoulders!

How? He also has Mechtech ports on his lower legs

the ones on his lower legs are no secret, but on his shoulders? That's a whole other story. see, the trick is, on the grill, right above the "MACH" letters, there is a slot. mechtech weapons fit perfectly in there

Never would've guessed that could fit it!

But just so the others here can see:

I Gave HA Roadbuster a more Artillery-bot look, It brings all the weapons on his back into one concentrated position, plus it aligns the mech-tech ports better, for even MORE guns, and an overall boxier, more Uniformed look.

Alright, so I just got StormBomb for xmas, and I have found a great place to store his chain in alt. mode.

Going from insect mode:

Lift up the black shoulder pads underneath the bug.
Take the chain, and hold it so that you get, first, one of the chain ends into the shoulders pad such that you can see the chains plastic loop hole (the end must be on its wider side, rather than its narrower, so as to keep things as close to the body as possible).
After doing so, ease the shoulder pad shut so that you don't really have any chain in the shoulder, but just the end. Push it tight so that it closes like normal (or atleast very close to normal snugness)
Do the same for the other shoulder pad and the other end of the chain.
If its done right, you should have both ends tightly secure in the shoulder pads... Now, what to do with the rest of the chain?

What I did, is brought it to the front of the bug, and looped the chain around the middle most horn, between the middle and the 2 side horns.
This keeps the chain connected to the figure, while adding a sort of chained beast-look as you have the chains sort of dangling/hanging between the end of the horn, and the underside of the bug.

Sorry for the long description, way too tired to bother taking pics, haha. If no one figures what I mean by tomorrow, I'll post pics.

I think I get it, but I haven't got him to hand right now. I just wrap it around his waist.

Just realized that too BTW, why does your mac have blue backlight? or is it just the pic?

Having said that, those pics do look cool, I'll give it a go.

OK, You know that quad-walking robot from DOTM? It's supposedly the one that transforms from the garbage truck. Seing as how that protofom looked like Longhaul before scanning, and you never see that quadwalker Transform, his alt mode is in question to me.
Well, If you take ROTF Mixmaster and re-arrange a few parts...

Problem solved! I Can easily see a coat of the right paint making this a perfect version of that quad-bot from the chicago scene in DOTM, or you can leave as is! It's a perfect fill in either way.
EDIT* OH! And RTS Deluxe Optimus Prime has a waiste swivel! It's little, and blocked by back kibble, but it's there!
