The rocket is made up of everything starting from the left hand going up the left arm into the left shoulder through the torso to inside the right shoulder to the right arm and down to the right hand. It's all one big removable rocket that detaches from the back of the torso.

That and at least the left "hand" slides down into the forearm to compact it into a smaller area

Before I got let go, my desk was full of Transformers and SW Black Series. Not only did they help me get through the day, but they were good conversation starters.

well, i actually bought some non-bayverse Transformers for first time in a while. Firedrive and Lionizer. They were £6 each in The Entertainer (by the way I saw Ravage and Laserbeak two pack in Forbidden Planet for £10.99 if anyone's looking for those).

Not sure what I expected really but they're ok? Lionizer I bought with possibilty of using as a Steeljaw dog for Studio Series Lockdown but now I have it at home it's far too small so will look for something better suited. His sword(?) mode is ok I suppose though only half of it is actually usable as a sword (which is more than the Whisper and Stormcloud attempt at a sword which is clearly just planes). Not sure what's supposed to be causing that blue swoosh, the colour suggests some kind of energy but where on the sword would it be coming from since the blade shows no blue at all and a bit odd if the energy is only coming off the rear of the sword. Is nice that the blade is removable and has a handle for small figures to wield it. Firedrive has a nice striking colour scheme of black and white with the magenta blast thingies but I prefer my custom Firebolt I made from PCC Pinpoint (of which I then somehow ended up with a second one of too which is nice for comparison pics like those above). Knees would have been nice in Firedrive (which 'Firebolt' and Pinpoint do have). I think the best thing about Firedrive is that he tabs in very nicely in gun mode all pleasingly secure and such. Not sure if I'll keep them long. Probably sell them sooner rather than later but eh it was something to play with on the 80 minute bus ride home from the shops.

Before we go any further, I have to ask, does this Omega Supreme figure have waist articulation?

John:
He does, he definitely does. We get that question a lot! “He’s cool, but does he have waist articulation?” It’s funny how much the G1 toy design has influenced people’s opinion. I remember as a kid this guy really throwing down in the cartoon, and he would bend at his waist, and could do all this different cool stuff. I remember playing with the G1 toy as a kid, and thinking to myself, “Wow…not only is it smaller than the cartoon, but it’s definitely not moving like the cartoon.” Fans of Siege know there’s a lot of articulation we built into these figures, and we wanted to make sure that the Titan Class character also had the same level of articulation.


Amazing how cartoon accuracy comes into play here as desirable, whereas some Masterpiece collectors now decry it as a crime.

I'd be more impressed if Siege Jetfire has waist articulation since he has that huge column of jet nose all the way down his front.

I don't see any problem with the size myself. I have Skytread nextto my Monsterbots. Hee is slightly shorter than them but scales nicely to me..

It is tough to tell if he has waist articulation or not. All of the Hasbro digital renders have him mistranformed. The nose of the jet is supposed to fold under the cockpit but it isn't in the official renders (so very Hasbro). The Takara official photos have him correctly transformed, but I can't tell if there is a waist swivel or not.

You are talking about two different things, what fans dislike in the MP line is cartoon aesthetic. That's not what's being talked about in what you quoted.

Their is a difference between what Siege does in that regard as compared MP figures. The Siege stuff still has lots of heavy detailing and although it is more show accurate it can still mesh with past generations figures. MP on the other hand has taken such a drastic shift from being a mix of aesthetics to being almost purely G1 toon than people are being turned off since the new stuff doesn't mesh as well.

I picked up my first couple Battle Masters today, and they're cool enough I guess, kinda like a side grade to mini-cons. What was disappointing was something that is either a design flaw or quality control issue. The pegs that are meant to be held in gun mode don't do their job at all, and they end up flopping around all over the place unless the gun is held straight down or completely horizontal. I'm not in full on buyers remorse mode, but I don't imagine I'll be getting any more.
