I did not expect them to make anything that workable of the Animated Blackarachnia mold. I'm really considering importing that figure now. Absolutely stunning.

Accuracy or not I'm just not digging that head on Slipstream. Maybe some 3P can step in on this one and make things right...'nuff said!

If you're going to go out of you're way and 3rd party prices just get a Timelines Slipstream. Probably save money in the long run anyway. She's not too hard to obtain. Or just don't buy or expect 3rd parties to fix something not broken to the general audience. 3rd parties don't ever contribute to exclusives or takara products because takara's products are about as limited as theirs.

I don't usually spring for takara only characters, but damn I love this Slipstream...and since I have hopes that we'll get a Blackarachnia for the Beast Wars anniversary and we'll be getting a repaint of one of Victorion's limbs as Nightbird I'm gonna call skip on the other two.

All this talk about BA and Silverbolt. Just want a clear answer (looked up tfwiki but no cigar)is BW Silverbolt the same as the CW Silverbolt who forms Superion?

He sees the world in black and white—and not just because his beast mode is partly canine. The only gray area for Silverbolt is Blackarachnia.

He was very proud of his ability to convert Blackarachnia to the Maximals, and, though most of the Maximals are skeptical of her loyalty to the cause and to him, he has nothing but faith in her.

Yes, but we're talking about the fuzor, who is not the generation one silverbolt in any capacity, outside of having the same name.

He was referring to beast wars silverbolt (the fuzor) because that is typically the character referenced in conjunction with blackarachnia and had a relationship with her.

The only one of the Femcon trio I'm still not sure about is Nightbird. Kind of wish there was a little more color on her. Is she still coming with all of Arcee's accessories or just the Sai?

Devil's advocate: isn't smiling benignly a bit out of character for Animated Slipstream? Maybe a LOT out of character?

Mmmmaybe if she's smiling benighly it's a sign that we should be afraid, be very afraid, of whatever horrors might be coming next.Nemesis Primal wrote:Sabrblade wrote:But Slipstream is an Animated character.Bounti76 wrote:I'm REALLY liking that Blackarachnia.
