That being said I plan to swap out Thundercracker's head. Anyone thinking the same and if so some ideas? I'm considering LG Bullhorn...anyone?

Been plenty of people using TR Overboard as the head, it looks dang good! blues almost match perfectly!
Va'al wrote:We have some more news for you hailing from the Transformers Studio Series toyline - specifically, the Optimus Prime figure in Voyager size class. According to site owner Seibertron, there appears to be a variant of the mold out at retail with some more accurately translucent orange 'battle blades' as seen in the fight scenes in the Transformers live action movies, especially with Revenge of the Fallen.
In Seibertron's words:Original wave has a less translucent orange blade (73461) while second release has a much more translucent blade (80171). Those codes are the stamped codes found on back of box.
Take a look at your own Autobot leader, and let us know which version you have! Are you more interested in either of the two variants? Is this enough to make you double-dip? Join the conversation in the Energon Pub, and share your thoughts.

They're just about the same height, but it's fine with me. It doesn't seem to throw off the scale of the Studio Series that much, in my opinion.

Looks good. Starscream still looks sufficiently bigger and bulkier than that Prime to make it work. I had a look on eBay but the only official ones are well over £100. Though I see what is likely a KO from China for £21.
Also a UK seller is selling the 'mechtech' trailer for about £20.

Here's a better picture, with Starscream's legs fully extended. He is still quite a bit taller than Optimus Prime.

Yeah I'm considering him as well.

Yep! I paid full price for my first Nitro and would have stopped there. But then I found my second one on clearance for $13, couldn't pass it up. I do regret not buying the other 3 at that price. Then came SS Thundercracker and I just had to have at least 2. That is where I currently am. I will probably show restraint from here out, but will peek at TRU as the discounts keep dropping. You never know.
