Also, this is my first and only SIEGE effect pack, are they all made of this material?

(This line rules BTW.)


Yep, all the effects use the same rubbery material.


Always beware of what you try but a hairdryer or warm water would probably be enough to soften it to where you could hold it straight and let it cool. They’re all like that but fortunately all the ones I have are straight they did a pretty good job with them I think. Best QC in ages.

We've probably seen all the new molds there will be for "Siege" through December. All of these repaints are just bonuses for anyone who wants them. Any new molds revealed going forward are almost certainly going to be part of the second act of the "War for Cybertron Trilogy."

I don't even see what the problem is. There aren't many of what I would call "inappropriate" remolds in this line. The closest thing to it would probably be Hot Shot and Nightbird, and those are both welcome to me.

Unique Molds between Deluxe and Titan - at least 16 on first blush. I'm probably leaving something out.

Agreed. I have three futuristic Lamborghinis and I’m totally happy with it.

G2 sideswipe really needs some heavier weapons. I love the paint job, and it is my favorite of the 3, but dang he needs some G2esque guns!

If they color them properly I will think about it.

Actually paired him up with M.C. Smashdown. And I think that is where M.C. will be staying, it's perfect!

For some reason, Crosshairs looks much better in these photos compared to previous images

For some reason, I'm turned off by the lack of a Targetmaster. I guess he could always roll with one of the existing...

... or wait for one to be released like with Spinister's Singe and Shrute. Trenchfoot is a pretty close match to Pinpointer, in fact.

Yeah, I keep waffling on whether I want to get that pack. G2 Sideswipe is cool and all that, but he has to be a different character on my shelf.

Crosshairs

The one packed with Legends Windblade would be ideal, but I never got them so I'll simply give him Blurr's Targetmaster from Legends Twinferno/Doublecross.

So the original listings were right then when they said that the weapons and accessories combined on Astrotrain. I really do like thd look of him and with his own launch pad he's a ready made display.

I don't have a Windblade, and probably want one, but I still think 60+ for essentially a Pinpointer is a bit much. Much more likely to get the Firestormers.
