Oil Slick is a cool bot and reminds me of...



Granted, I've never seen TFA so I'm strictly talking design-wise.

You should try Sesame Oil, it goes great with stir fry.

I have done! It is tasty indeed, just not as easy to find in Italy.

Oh, the parallels are very much there.

It's no joke. My wife learned to cook from her Italian grandmother. We have an entire cupboard filled with various oils.

I mean, you need the various stages of oilitude.

Yes, sesame is good, but more of a finishing oil as it has a very low smoke point.

Oilidudes.

After but a month, I have received a parcel from ScottyP!



SHATTERED GLASS ALPHA BRAVO










Also, huh.

Those stickers make it perfect! Did you stick them or did ScottyP?

That is all the mind of ScottyP - this is not the first time. It is still amusing.

You know what I forgot? Something to call out that it combines with Hot Spot, therefore also combines with Alpha Bravo

Glad it finally got there!

Yay for Dreadwind/SG Alpah Bravo! How is hanging with his normal-verse self?

I think "this dumb thing" could also be a bra for robots.

Yanno like those coverings people put on sport cars to prevent bugs and rocks from hitting the front end? Here is a link to prove I am not just making up juvenile things that don't exist.

Yeah I got just as much of a chuckle out of this one as the last.

My wife's old car had one, well part of one. It looked like a little mustache. I think one of the brand names was LeBra

Tried something different for a change.

Prowl and coffee of course. I like my coffee how I like my Prowls; strong, dark and harsh

I like the way the sun has hazed out the back lit pic and I can't hellp but feel the storage room pic should be full on B&W, especially as your sig pic

I feel like dad Prowl from Animated is a more wholesome precursor to prick Prowl from IDW.

I just went ahead and did it myself. Hope that's cool. I just had to see and thought it was worth sharing.

Hah, was just doing the same!

The pics don't feel all that different to me, but the DO feel good!

What exactly did you do different?

Prowl and a cup of tea. Give me coffee and you will never get me off the ceiling.

Looks like a really nice figure btw.

Thanks! This was today's IG post.

Animated Prowl is still the best motorbike Transformer ever committed to plastic, and one of the most poseable ever.

I took several multiple shots of each, aimed for natural lighting, and transferred onto laptop before uploading. And played with perspective more than usual, gonna keep trying that! Still my usual Fairphone 2 12MP camera though.

TFA Prowl is my favorite characterization of Prowl also. He's so chill in comparison to his table flipping alternate self.

Just Prowl. I don't care for coffee or tea.
