It looks amazing on mixmaster
I'm curious, are the clear parts on that figure separate parts?blackeyedprime wrote:Yet the orig mixmaster (G1 colors is the only one I've had) looks so much better for having the cthru windows and clear plastic for the headlights.Hellscream9999 wrote:It looks amazing on mixmastercarytheone wrote:Siege Ironhide comes immediately to mind.

I am kinda wishing I had picked up an ROTF Starscream, but the lighter base color was offputting (It does still look alright, though). If Studio Series goes on for long enough, I'd like to see a DOTM Starscream with a dark gray base color (along the lines of the HFTD Leader) and the arm-mounted gatling gun/missiles to complete the Starscream arsenal.

And knowing the kind of character Shockwave is (or, knowing the reputation he has come to have as a character), we know that he so would have found a way to survive all the way into that era.D-Maximal_Primal wrote:Sabrblade wrote:Have I mentioned yet how every time I see SS Shockwave I can't help but think that he could double for not just the Movieverse version of Shockwave but also work as a Beast Machines "Technorganic Vehicle" version of G1 Shockwave?D-Maximal_Primal wrote:Have we discussed how much I love this SS Shockwave?

I think that would be radically cool too. The look works. I just love it. I love the rib cage look and the horned head

That, or the planet's reformatting changed the look of whatever body he may have been preparing for himself at the time of its happening.D-Maximal_Primal wrote:Sabrblade wrote:And knowing the kind of character Shockwave is (or, knowing the reputation he has come to have as a character), we know that he so would have found a way to survive all the way into that era.D-Maximal_Primal wrote:Sabrblade wrote:Have I mentioned yet how every time I see SS Shockwave I can't help but think that he could double for not just the Movieverse version of Shockwave but also work as a Beast Machines "Technorganic Vehicle" version of G1 Shockwave?D-Maximal_Primal wrote:Have we discussed how much I love this SS Shockwave?

Though, I could totally see him modifying his new form to give himself a vehicle mode instead of a beast mode.

I mean, isn't that what's so great about having combiners this good? You can check out the combined mode and judge for yourself whether it's for you or not, and if you're not into it, you have 8 independently great figures to display instead
