I'm on android and don't have those problems, could just be a problem with your phone itself rather than with the operating system.

could be, i dunno?

just waiting to seeif anyone else on Android is having a similar problem(i doubt it! but y'never know? but it's not the end of the world, just means that i can't see properly any pics that D-Maximus posts)

Anyhoo, back to Combiner Wars...

If Streetwise and Alpha Bravo switched places, this would be perfect.

I would agree, but then you would have a Defensor situation of a scrawny arm and a brawny arm, but then again, 2 matching legs would probably look better

I think I took that pic shortly after some talk about the heli mold looking good in leg mode and I had never tried it before. I'm sure I'll mess with more combinations. That one had a "cop" theme, though I'm sure First Aid would probably look better than AB for this setup.

I think 2 helicopters would complement each other better. The aerial molds are much skinnier than the car molds, so it looks a bit better with 2 choppers together. Maybe use Blades and AB together as legs or arms? May help the look. It certainly helps Victorion look a little more balanced, as it does Bruticus

A huge weapon could fix that really quick. And if both Streetwise and Prowl are legs, their front ends need to be flipped up into kneecaps to hide those hideous connection spots. That's what I did with my Defensor (who has Prowl and Streetwise as legs) and Menasor (who has Dead End and Wildrider as legs) and they look much better.

That's similar to what I did. Offroad and Deadend, First Aid and Streetwise, and Ironhide and Mirage (soon to be 2 Prowls) all as legs for the kneecaps. Now Bruticus does not need them and neither does the Silverbolt mold since both actually have straight thighs without robot mode feet on them. I am actually thinking that when I get Onslaught, I will try putting him reverse style with brawny arms and jet legs. still gives a kneecap and could look cool.

PS: Swindle actually has a steering wheel molded in!

The best kneecaps though are the ones you get with first aid and offroad.

Absolutely, but amazingly enough Mirage/Dragstrip work very well with the kneecaps too. better than you might think

[DedicatedGhostArt]

Menasor madness.

[DeathReviews]

I have fiddled with the concept of the all-white Power Core Optimus combiner as well. Looks better when color coordinated...

[DedicatedGhostArt]

This Menasor pictured is a CAD design for a custom Menasor torso/Motormaster to be able to combine with all your combiner wars figures.



He's all white for the design phase.

I just posted the hip sections picture mostly because I wanted to know if people think it's a better look for his legs than on the CW version of MM.

Also please don't confuse this for me advertising, all I want to do is discuss how CW Motormaster SHOULD'VE been, and how I am trying to make a better transformation.

Hopefully When I'm done, I'll be able to get a prototype from Shapeways for under $400. oy.

[ZeroWolf]

Looking good ss, but was motormaster that bad to need this treatment?

Tailgate, from the thrilling 30 line

[ZeroWolf]

I need that tailgate, and it's all James Roberts fault.

Exactly why several guys I would otherwise not have bought have been bought

Thats the only reason I bought it too. Still one of the worst toys I own but I am glad to have the character in my collection.

It can be a bit clunky, but I really do like it. It's a wee bit adorable and unique in transformation. Plus it's Tailgate, that's cool

Its not really that, it just feels so cheap and light.

[Stuartmaximus]

amazing how it has the holes that exactly align with the pegs on Prime's chest! even though the thrilling 30 figures weren't really supposed to be designed for that purpose

I'll give you it's light. I can feel it between him, Swerve and Cosmos. Dunno why. But as far as I have seen, he is not flimsy.
