Well today (yesterday), I transformed Henkei Strafe and ED Ligier. My son's Animated Activator BBee gets a lot of playing time too.

I totally agree! The black, metallic grey, purple, and lemony yellow all work so well together. It's a pure Decepticon colour scheme.

I love the molds for the pair and I have 2 of the 4 incarnations so far.

The Rubik's Cube of Transformers! Hehe.

I love Iceberg's alt mode.

ROTF Voyager Mixmaster to his cannon mode.

I transform cybertron Armorhide everyday at work. He kicks it with me between sales calls.

My European G1 Constructicons are now displayed in robot form...
I really wish they'd make these guys combinable

Well, today felt like a ROTF Long Haul day... he's been in Dump Truck mode since Aug. 22... but when I was looking for something in storage, I discovered something that seemed like what Hot Rod would look like, if he was a pickup truck. Did a quick search in the gallery here and discovered it was a Transformers Energon Rodimus. I have no recollection of ever buying him, so maybe it was a present at some point? Who knows. So today it has been...

Energon Rodimus

He seems to be in great shape, sans some paint chipping on the front bumper. Joints are nice and tight (and in some cases a little too tight). Although seeing the gallery and his combined form, it was a revelation as to what the heck that Mirage looking police car was, that I also found once but had no idea who he was.

TF moms are pretty cool in my book B-)

Just transformed all my ROTF Legends to their alt mode.

Today Universe Octane got a couple of transforms as I tightened his joints. I do love that figure so, great alt modes.

Also, Cliffjumper, who also got the tightening treatment.

And last but not least, Armada Blurr, cos I got bored and decided to paint him silver and gold

Re-assembled the Aerialbots and set them up in alt modes for now. Simple transformations but I like how the Energon Aerial Team molds remind me of the G1 versions.

Wut?

Both the ROTF Fallen and 2007 Megatron were modified and tested to see how hard modifying them to be more screen accurate would be. Rotf Sideswipe, Chromia and Supreme Devastator are all pretty fun to Transform so I change them often.

I played around with the new Vortex from the Bruticus combiner.

Reminds me, I have to disassemble mine to fix the transformation socket.

You know, I've had Mixmaster since he first came out and completely forgot that he had a third mode. Anyway, today ROTF Deluxe Skids, ROTF Voyager Starscream, ROTF Deluxe Gears (I love this figure!), and TFA Voyager Grimlock got the old hands-on treatment.

They are indeed great figures. However, I wish the torso of Silverbolt would somehow stay in place easier.

Prob bc his third mode never seen any screentime in ROTF, but it's quite refreshing than just looking at his robot mode. I think his alt mode is the best imo. B-)

Played / Cleaned my Powermaster Prime.

Yeah, Silverbolt is the weak figure of the set for me. I'm really disappointed how the front of the torso, basically the cockpit section of Silverbolt, isn't designed with a strong tabbing/pegging part. I see a tiny peg on the underside near the tip of the nosecone. That's it. It's ridiculous. It would have been so easy to have implemented a flip down 5mm peg in the nosecone like the energon weapon/foot parts that Skydive and Fireflight have. Then place a 5mm peg hole in the pelvis. Boom, you have a solid connection point for the torso.

Played around with 2007 Movie Voyager Megatron, really considering removing the ice parts. :-?

Animated Swoop, Beast Wars 10th Anniversary Primal (The japanese one that's a repaint of Robot Masters Beast Convoy), and my custom Universe Punch/Counterpunch (well, really he just changed between Punch and Counterpunch a few times)

I've been packing up my Transformers for the impending move. My girlfriend and I are finally getting a two bedroom apartment...and the second bedroom is mine!!! I've got a 32 inch Flatscreen, Black sofa bed, and 4 different bookshelves for my Transformers display. :grin:

Yea, anyway, to stay on topic. I've transformed quite a few figures today because they're easier to pack in Alt modes. Off the top of my head: BW2 Galvatron got converted to tank mode and Universe Prowl, RID Scourge, Micron Legends Scourge, and Classics Starscream all got converted to their vehicle modes. My room is gonna rock!!!
