But you know what, its kinda tricky. BB is at the end, Grimlock, Starscream and Barricade are in top 3 and the rest is all kind of muddied. Like not really sure who is better between Stinger, Ratchet, Crowbar and Optimus. They are all ok but not phenominal and all have really obvious flaws.
That’s a really accurate assessment, but I’d say OP is better than just “okay.” Out of all of them, its Blackout, Starscream, and Prime that I keep going back to. He’s a lot of fun to mess with. I’d put his balance and playability above Ratchet, Stinger, and Crowbar. Although Crowbar is definitely a lot of fun.

Surprised to read that about Optimus. His chest drives me bonkers!
Leaked from Cybertron: Here’s a sneak peek of how the designers went from board to bot with our Leader Class Movie 1 Decepticon Blackout.

Wolfman Jake wrote:The chest is so sloppily done, and after 10 years of doing it pretty well to almost perfectly! The mind boggles. What really disappointed me when I saw the Studio Series version of Optimus Prime in person, though, is just how maroon the red plastic and paint look. That's just not at all the right hue.

This is from my TV, the car in the front is true red and stinger is not the same color.
Here's one from youtube:
Notice the slider at the bottom. That is true red. Stinger is not

william-james88 wrote:As usual, Wolfman, I completely agree! What is so odd about this toy si that a lot of effort wnet into it. Out of all of the SS series so far, it has the most premium looking deco and probably the most parts. But its used in all the wrong ways with priorities in the wrong areas. So in the end, you get an optimus with not a great alt mode (sides and back), a robot mode with odd looks in the back and front, and a deco that doesnt look like anything I have seen on screen.
In the end, as a transforming toy, its decent, but as an interpretation of ROTF Optmus, it suffers bad.

I'd say more raspberry red.

Little Raspberry Beret Red Corvette!
Sorry, it's Prince Day here in Minnesota.
Even better!Overcracker wrote:Sabrblade wrote:Let's just say that Stinger's more strawberry red than tomato red.

I think they scale pretty well.

I respectfully disagree. Action figures dont transform. All they do is pose. By your logic, Barbie dolls would be considered "action figures" too. I gravitated towards transformers as a kid because I didnt want to play with little men dressed in tights. Transformers are the alternative to action figures.

I have 5-inch Power Rangers action figures that are fully articulated and transform from morphed human men into organic-looking dragons. No robotic features involved in those.Rated X wrote:Black Hat wrote:Rated X wrote:These are Transformers, not action figures.

Those sound awesome, which ones are they?
Nope. Not those. I've sent Will a PM explaining what they are (they're from the MMPR 2010 line).Emerje wrote:william-james88 wrote:Sabrblade wrote:I have 5-inch Power Rangers action figures that are fully articulated and transform from morphed human men into organic-looking dragons.

I'm guessing it's the Mystic Force ones. They've aged pretty well I think (visible hands aside).
