I already have Sandstorm and Slugslinger, and I was never crazy for the G2 Dinobots, so the 2-packs are easy passes for me. I'm all in for everything else, though.
I was also surprised to see Alpha Trion's younger appearance, yet it makes a whole lot of sense with it being a revival of the...
Oh, there will be a new Unicron eventually. I do think it's still too close to the HasLab for it to be realistic at this point, though. It's going to be a while yet. Mark's interview over at TFW2005 all but confirms that, I think.
Is the SS86 Bumblebee head swappable with the WfC Bumblebee/Cliffjumper/Hubcap mold? I think I'll be happy with this Hubcap, but if they are swappable, I might be tempted to put his head on Worlds Collide Bumblebee. It's one of the spare toys from that pack that I didn't really want, but now...
I don't see anything about the Titan being SS86, just SS. I'd guess one of the big live-action movie bots. Stratosphere maybe. Dragonstorm could be great. Maybe a larger Demolishor? Or Devcon? I'm guessing Titan is too big for Transit or Infernocus. I'd suggest PS2 game Tidal Wave as an option...
I'm keeping Legacy Soundwave. I never liked the mix of gold and yellow on Netflix SW.
For Rumble and Frenzy, I'm keeping both the Siege and SS86 versions. The only one I'm iffy on is the toy-colored blue Frumble. He's just redundant with the others.
For Ravage, I'm using Legacy Ravage with the...
It varies case by case for me. If I had to set a general baseline, probably cartoon decos. Like Sabrblade, I appreciate visual synergy.
However, there are a lot of cases where I strongly prefer the toys. Thundercracker's wonderful deep blue and the Dinobots having a consistent color scheme are...
Yes, it has. See the character model evolution image on the wiki that I linked to on the previous page. The original toy has a red triangle sticker that goes on that spot on the cannon.
I love the scale charts. They're the primary reference I go to when determining how figures should scale next to each other. However, I think there are limits to how much precision you can glean from them. Like Sabrblade points out, they aren't all done in a similar pose, so you can't always get...
I've had nearly 40 years of practice avoiding cats underfoot. Nyx here is less than a year old, has been with us for 8 months now, and I think has already tripped me more than the other six cats combined!
It's extra striking after being used to Siege, and Earthrise to a lesser extent. Those versions had the balance out of whack the opposite direction, with a long barrel and a really short back end. That's also not screen accurate, but it looks a lot better than this.
A giant fusion cannon was...
But they're black, not orange. They're the void that literally stares back at you when you stare at them.
And are completely undetectable as they try to murder you by walking in front of you as you try to navigate the stairs! And yet are also absolutely adorable...
I think I finally realized why, while the cannon doesn't look right, it also doesn't look entirely wrong. It looks to me like it's a compromise between the final Sunbow character model and the early/Marvel character model. Basically the final cannon (albeit with that oddly shortened arm...
A couple months back, I had a really good eBay interaction. I'd been browsing through some listings, probably from one of my saved searches e-mails, when I came across a user (vertysnapsales) selling a bunch of reproduction G1 sticker sheets. What jumped out at me was a sheet for G1 Black...
I've noticed before that some of the pictures I've uploaded have been kinda crappy, low-res versions of the picture, while others appear to be the actual, full-res picture. I haven't tried really testing it, but I've gotten the impression it may have to do with how I insert the picture...
Not sure where, but I'm sure I saw someone ask before how Velocitron Hauler looks compared with the SS86 Constructicons, and I don't remember ever seeing any comparison pics. I finally had a chance to pull Hauler out of his storage crate, so:
Obviously, mine has some of the Toyhax sticker...
