Funny. I just watched The Key to Vector Sigma last night, and I could swear there were five jets, including some guy named Slingshot who was kind of a jerk to Ironhide, and in fact the most prominent member of the team in their introductory episode aside from Silverbolt. And I didn't see any Alpha Bravo anywhere...
So, er, define "always," please. Because the way I understood the word, it was not a subjective word.
Lies. Alpha Bravo has ALWAYS BEEN AN AERIALBOT.
I know it's a Photoshop. I just find some of the venom directed at Alpha Bravo a little ridiculous, and the idea that he has retroactively been made a G1 Aerialbot to destroy the childhood of his naysayers strikes me as funny.
QUIT DESTROYING MY CHILDHOOD MRBLACK!!!
it has nothing to do with destroying anyone's childhood.. it has to do with the fact that it's been thirty years since we've gotten proper combiners. to make them the right way now, but just decide to completely change a member of each team for absolutely no other reason than them being greedy IS a problem.. it's not ruining my childhood, but it's crushing my faith in hasbro which has already been squashed enough as it is.
it's great that they are releasing both slingshot and wildrider.. but it doesn't look like we'll be getting a proper groove. so, that sucks.
it'd be like starting a generations line and not including an optimus prime, but instead, they just out of the blue invent a brand new autobot leader.. so, you'd have all of the other classic autobots being lead by a brand new leader for absolutely no reason. it's just not right and it's easy to see why it would piss some people off.
if they really wanted to add a new member, they should've started with the proper teams first, then introduce the new characters later.
i'm all for new characters, bulkhead, lockdown, the movie decepticons, all really cool. adding a helicopter to a team of combining jets is stupid. adding an SUV to a limb team of sports cars is stupid. now.. had they released the original team first, then in a later wave introduced the new characters in the pack in comics, that would've been pretty cool. but that's not how it went down.
it's a clear money grab. wait until both alpha bravo and offroad had sold a bunch, then reveal slingshot and wildrider online.. that's pretty low.

Hmmm, what should the new member for the AERIALbots transform into? I've got it.......a helicopter!

Now I wonder, is this just auto-hate for the noob or do you genuinely dislike Rook? Will you hate him just as much when he's retooled into Brawl?Rated X wrote:Rook is pure garbage.

RiddlerJ wrote:I'm liking that Defensor. To be fair, I thought the G1 Defensor was one of the better built combiners. He was pretty solid and sturdy, nothing flopping around.
I don't mind if the combiners are a little awkward in their construction. They're supposed to be powerful machines for emergencies. Not something that needs to comfortably walk around day to day.
That is not helping either's case. Superion is the only one whose torso looks well proportioned.Shockwave7 wrote:Is Defensor 2015 stumpy? Yes. But so is Menasor.

But we've all found ways to make Menasor's proportions better, and I'm betting the same can be done for Defensor.Sabrblade wrote:That is not helping either's case. Superion is the only one whose torso looks well proportioned.Shockwave7 wrote:Is Defensor 2015 stumpy? Yes. But so is Menasor.
