Sorted.
You keep spouting that
you hate that Hasbro are taking traditionally non combining characters and making them combiners then vigorously defend
your right to express that opinion. However, whenever anyone says they don't like Mixmaster's alt mode,
by expressing their opinion, you call it pointless? Right.

The rear-mounted cement mixer design nowadays is used on the smaller-scale ones, while the bigger-scale mining ones use the front-mounted mixers. It's because they're all giant mining construction vehicles now that Mixmaster got his new look.
You keep mentioning alt mode scale. Why? Look at the deluxe class, sure a couple of cars scale well with each other and a couple of jets scale well with each other, but when you look at the entire line there is NO alt mode scale. As Burn would say, pointless.
