By "call off" I meant "let her off the hook".
Trump wouldn't call your house. He's too busy campaigning and chatting with Jimmy Fallon.
A new deluxe Acid Storm and Sunstorm would be awesome.

If you feel you must blame someone for there not being toys for those comic versions of Sky Reign and Galvatronus, don't blame Hasbro for not making toys of those versions. But rather, blame IDW for completely ignoring how Galvatronus and Sky Reign were even done in the CW toyline.

Oh, I totally get why IDW didn't go the route of the toyline with these two. It's just that if people are going to complain about the toy versions and the comic versions of these two not being the same, credit where credit is due.D-Maximus_Prime wrote:Sabrblade wrote:Furthermore, the reason that there aren't toys of those comic versions of Sky Reign and Galvatronus is because those comic versions of those two were made LONG after the toys versions were.

But at the same time, think about the actual components of those 2 combiners. Cyclonus was the only true Galvatronus figure and he is a star in MTMTE/LL. And then Sky Reigns limbs are 3/4 Lost Lighters, and one of them has been dead for a couple years, so they never really stood a chance.
I'm just glad they included them in some sort of manner at all

Although, I wouldn't be surprised if the two's appearing in the comics at all the way they did was done to appease a Hasbro mandate for IDW to somehow put the two of them in the comics to promote the toys (even if the end result drastically contradicted how the toy versions were done).

I didn't notice this until I was putting her into combiner mode, but I received two left hands (one with left hand fingers and one with right hand fingers). This is the first time I have received a Transformer with that sort of issue. So I have a replacement on order. The fact *I* have to box up the first one and bring it to the UPS store really irritates me.
I guess here is hoping that I receive the correct hands (or two right hands if they can't get that right). At least this way I can choose the figures with the best paint jobs and send the spares back.

Damn, that's awful Hope it doesn't ruin the figure in general for you.

Actually, it is kind of funny. The right hand was literally the last thing I was putting into place. So she still is just fine beyond a part that is getting replaced. If nothing else, my six year old daughter thinks she looks really cool. I do as well, but Victorion has the first grader seal of approval.
In the deep recesses of my mind, I kinda want to keep the sword from this set for my troubles. But that is not cool, so the sword goes back to Amazon.
I am torn between how I want to display her. I really like the helicopters as legs since I don't use them as legs for many of my combiners (Rook and Blades swapped places since Rook is a great arm, but since Hound is an arm on Sky Reign, I might move Blades back to an arm). The thinner legs look a little more feminine, I guess. The problem is that Jumpstream is kind of a crappy arm, but a great leg. Dustup is fine in either place. But overall I really like the figure, even though she has one thumb on the wrong side of the hand (currently.
