She already plays with CW Optimus so Magnus was a logical step. It's actually made me re-think what I want to focus on, as I could buy the "Generations" stuff and we could BOTH play with them!! (although she does OK with the MP figures too
)
Yeah I actually had folks uncover the deck furniture and sit out there most of the evening...it was so weird...it is what I imagine christmas in Florida is like...warm and humid LOL.
That's really kewl that your daughter is into the TFs with your and does well with them and also good that your are angling your purchase so that you BOTH can play

)
I really don't know why I don't have him, I liked the character on..
VU! VU! VIC-A-TOR-Y!! TA-RANS-FO-MA VIC-A-TOR-Y!! (effing love that theme song)
..and I liked the crazy "new Duly Appointed Enforcer of the Tyrest Accord" that he was in IDW.
Yeah BBTS had him on sale for 130 which was the lowest I ever saw him. I have not got to Victory YET LOL but he hit's a lot of buttons on my alien robot list so I am sure I will love his character...that's the next series I have to get through then I will be doing Beast Wars.
SPOILER ALERT! LOL... That sounds interesting though can't wait to read that in the comics...I have to wait for the trades so I am perpetually woefully behind...

I definitely waited on this guy after the Apollyon fever I did not want to potentially be disappointed. I do love my Apollyon but he does leave a bit to be desired in areas. This guys is solid, the foot transformation is a BE-ATCH. His joints are tight and there is plenty of ratchet-y goodness
. Oh and the light up feature.

And Andras, I had on pre-order but decided I only wanted to cross the 3P line in extreme cases like Megatron.
Shaj-AAM I had to get him...he is an awesome figure. I did have to shore up his left elbow ratchet though. He has a great presence on par with Magnus.
As for Andras...I love him and see above

Funny you mention it . I started a new one today . I went back to the 3.75 scale it's a joe/trans crossover .
I had to slow down almost to a holt . it took over . constantly drawing and looking for anything i could possibly use as fodder for customizing drained the hell out of me
Nice I am looking forward to seeing more of your work. Have you posted any of it yet? I actually took a long hiatus from my Decepticon Diorama...did a bit of work over the holiday though will post pics soon.

If i was still in full beast mode collecting i would probably feel the same tbh .
Exaust might have started a thing or two , i'm not sure yet but IF it continues i will be buying the KO MP but for certain i'm not re-collecting G1 MP .
Totally understandable...I think it all depends on your state of mind and how you are collecting. I am not 100% against KOs but I think for now I would rather have official. I was thinking KOs might be good out in the open, "please touch" additions to my collection....
