Zelda knew, haven't you been paying attention

If we're putting request in for size comparisons, (even though they are bastard cousins at best) I'd like to see the Seige figures with some of the previous WfC/FoC figures. That will be my most likely grouping anyway.ZeldaTheSwordsman wrote:But then again, the only non-Siege Deluxe I've actually seen Siege Sideswipe with is Universe Sideswipe. I haven't seen him compared to Universe Prowl or Generations Wheeljack or Jazz or to Prime Wars and T30 deluxes.
Not the best game to plastic transformation either.gothsaurus wrote:That's a really good point. The only other Cybertronian vehicles we've really gotten have been WFC/FOC. Curious how those will scale as well.
Glad Sideswipe was one of the first they redid. His video game version really was far off base for what I picture him like. Too curvy for a crisp, angular character.

His weapon is cool and was given to Prime the second it was freed from the blister.
Again, wrong thread, wrong line, no relation and no chance in hell; but I'd love to see them finish the WfC/FoC line.
I was hoping for the same thing. Even if it didn't continue it, at least be in the same universe. But that's never stopped me from mixing and matching CHUG and Aligned before.Sentinel_Primal wrote:Honestly, that's what I was hoping this line would be. Fixing/Finishing the designs from those games at a proper scale. I like some of what we've seen, but others make me think that this is too G1

Black Hat wrote:On a completely unrelated note a subject came up in the 4chan Transformers general that intrigued me- if you could pick any combiner to be made in Siege, who would it be? I myself would be torn between Menasor (CW Menasor was the runt of the toyline, which is a shame as he's one of the coolest combiner teams IMO) and maybe Raiden (because A: he hasn't gotten any love from anyone and B: Cybertronian trains would be pretty cool alt modes).
gothsaurus wrote:I'd put at the top of my list of still-wanting combiners for Siege:
– Monstructor (with monster/animal modes)
– Piranacon
– Raiden
– Road Caesar

Galvatronian wrote:A few people have said that this line doesn't lend itself well to combiners. All the micromasters so far combine to make weapons. Skytread, Ultra magnus and shockwave combine with themselves. Cog, sixgun and brunt are made to combine with others. Perceptor is built to combine with himself in multiples. I'm assuming the cassetes will fit inside soundwave.
None of these are the classic (scramble city) type combinations or even close to it, BUT to me that still means this is very much a line suited to combiners, just more unusual ones. I could happily see Raiden as a leader class, sold as one figure that splits up, that'd be awesome. I think combinations like dreadwing or big powered would suit this line perfectly (in combination style, not era) although we've just had both, so I'm not suggesting them, just that type. Can anyone think of any like that from early G1?
