    The thing is, it's better at being a more faithful G1 version of Bruticus than the CW/UW releases. However, I still have the UW version, and I'm having a hard time convincing myself that this is meaningfully better and worthy of a purchase.

    What also doesn't help the silhouette, IMO, is the way that the arms stretch out Vortex and Blast Off, making them appear much longer than they should be. I know that it's out of necessity and part of the frame system, but it translates to the legs looking far too squat in comparison. Also, I...

    Okay, Armada Sideways looks incredible. Onslaught and Bruticus...eh, pretty damn disappointing. I have whinged about Onslaught's stubby, short gun barrels in truck mode before, but the problem (for me) persists here. They just look like they need to be about twice as long in vehicle mode...

    Ah, okay. Well, I may see if I can attach some more later. I was outside having some fun with my old, outmoded phone camera :LOL:

    Really been enjoying the Diaclone Reboot stuff of late and decided to do a lil baby diet custom. Had a lot of fun putting this together, and everything integrates: Edit: Sorry for the multiple pics!

    The new Transformers Deal Thread

    Yeah, that Hasbro Pulse sale got me. I'm not into the lore surrounding The Thirteen, but I like Prima Prime's design, so I picked up one (plus a Classified Techno Viper).

    Whoa, that's a pretty good deal.

    Allspark Check-in

    I work at a CC too, Dvandom; I feel you. Congratulations on winning tenure though! Let's see, January through May were spent being a primary caregiver to my mother as she battled - and beat - ovarian cancer. June through July were spent catching up on all of the life that I had to put on hold...

    40th Anniversary Haslab: RID2001 Omega Prime

    A pic might help put it in perspective, if you're able to take one. Mine has plastic that fits that description, but I am not sure about the line near the screw hole.

    Nah. I always wanted to be some cool, charismatic, confident Transformers character. But deep down, in places that I don't talk about at parties, I know that I'm Ultra Magnus. In my working life, I have had leadership thrust upon me, I rarely have time to deal with "that" (whatever "that"...

    Oh, don't worry, they will. There will be kits to make Bruticus taller (because he just won't be tall enough!), to fill in gaps, to add details, new parts that you just can't do without, and, yes, to add more weaponry. All for the low, low price of over half the cost of Bruticus himself...

    Hasbr-uh-oh - Business and Tariffs Discussion

    Yeah, I really don't have the space, time or finances to approach collecting from a completist viewpoint these days. It's been a while since I have done that, but I generally have just bought what I liked each year. I still find a lot to like, even if I can't "catch 'em all" - and the HasLab...

    Man, that Leader price tag is inching closer and closer toward the deep waters of Commander class. It looks like I will have to become even more choosy about which Leaders I'm buying and why.

    When I think of PotP Predaking, my mind goes back to that line and how, for me, it all felt a bit too "the dough in the middle of the pizza is still raw" to really like. I do like some of the releases though, and as I mentioned elsewhere, that jet Elita is a cool take and a lot of fun...

    I know that this isn't the 3p forum, but I have been quite satisfied with MMC's Feral Rex for years now. I would happily buy a Has/Tak-sanctioned official update (which I technically have, through the upcoming T-Spark), but I passed on Titan Predaking the first go-round and have never felt like...

    I wonder if this could be redecoed (or retooled, either partially or heavily) into the A Team van?
