I have a special fondness for Sentinel Prime because I work at Palo Verde Nuclear Generating Station and we actually have one of the real firetrucks from the movie (we even got to keep the Autobot emblem on it). I really want to add him to my collection.
I also think Combiner Wars inferno deserves an honorable mention. It's a really great looking toy, both firetruck and robot. Also his Combiner mode is nice too. But I think he really shines in his scorpion mode. Haha
Now this is pretty darn special!
I too am still salty about that Sentinel twist. That's pretty much why i sold of my voyager Sentinel, not very good and the character irks me. One of only 2 figures I have ever sold too
I don't know the whole truth of the matter, but when Optimus offered the Matrix and Sentinel didn't take it, to me that just shows there was a different movie in the works. Sentinel was supposed to be a good guy and they got Leonard Nimoy to voice him, and who in the world would believe Nimoy would voice an evil Transformer? (Wink wink) Ah you got me venting. I need to go find him so I can add him to my collection and pretend he was a good guy that sacrificed himself to save Optimus and there was no twist of him being a bad guy.

The Universe Inferno mold is indeed a great figure, and often under-rated.

Ha, ha! You guys are trying to make sense out of a Bayformers movie!

Also. the integrated combiner heads in Combiner Wars were a burden on everybody who didn't use the Hot Spot/Onslaught mold. The Silverbolt mold suffered the worst for it.
Taking Leader-class Sentinel Prime out just because you have no experience with him seems a bit dodgy.

I read it as him making his own list using mine as a starter point.
I am very curious about what you mean with the burden about intergrating combiner heads. Sounds interesting but I dont see the burden, I thought the silverbolt mode was the best of the torsos.

Honestly, I dont remember that being a big issue affecting multiple copies, unlike something like MP BW Meg's crotch. Still sucks for those it happened to of course.
