Orange Scorponok next please. That one was an even bigger grail for me, though I never had the same suspicion that it ever got released in an earlier wave. I just liked it.
Are you really surprised with all the other painful, dismissive portmanteaus he drops for disliked things and the aggressive shilling of 3P toys in every other post?
Certainly not.
The Ignore function truly works wonders.
We should talk, lol. Squeezeplay and Tarantulas are really the only things I want from this set.
But that Prime Cliffjumper is TEMPTING. The Chase mold is solid and this color scheme looks great on it. Not sure I need it AS Cliffjumper though; I wonder if anyone will bother making a 3P Chase Roadburn head to swap onto it.
Tarn seems like a good pack-in for people who had trouble getting that single release, but I could've done with someone else. Cyberverse representation is kind of underwhelming so far, being more of a way to do G1-but-not-G1. The Cyberverse-associated releases haven't been terrible (although I hope they reshell that Windblade at some point becasue the jet mode is meh), but I'd rather see more of that universe's more unique contributions, like Clobber or Meteorfire or Wildwheel. Shadow Striker is limited by being a pretool, but is appreciated.

Just a heads up I got emails from Hasbro Pulse this morning stating that all my pre-orders from last week are shipping soon, even Gears who wasn't supposed to ship until July.
I’ll message you once the usual suspects put up preorders after Easter.
I…actually didn’t know you could. How does the mod work?
When I did mine, I didn't need any extra parts. I just used a craft knife and a small file to cut away the bits that I didn't need.
Here are two ways:

Because his height wasn't consistent throughout the comics, right? One minute he's the same height as Megatron and the next he's the same height as Overlord and Deathsaurus.
The KO is about the same height as Overlord and Armada Megatron and really brings him up to "leader" class scale.
Also, the paint is amazing and his extra sword can be given to Bludgeon for sh*ts and giggles.
Honestly shocked that you're not already!
It's pretty wild they went with Mindwipe. Most customs I've seen do a great job using Blot; seems like it wouldn't have been too difficult to replace the combiner peg with a compartment and Titan Master neck socket.
The 4-pack is up on Pulse right now.
I miss the old board's swear filter for stuff like that.
Mindwipe transforms the "right" way by flipping upside down. Blot doesn't to that.
When Cheetimus made a custom on them, they also used Mindwipe as the base
Ordered the set. Entirely for Squeezeplay.
-ZacWilliam, and in the optimistic view that I will have more money by the time it comes out.
