You say this like Bumblebee isn't cool
He is just overused that's all.

You say this like I know Kurona and his personality traits.
I can't read sarcasm and jokes on the internet that's all.

This is a design that's not bad and works well for the character.

I apologize I have a habit to assume everyone is a guy on the internet until told otherwise.
Still proves my point about not knowing about your joke.

Eh, it's cool; it happens.
To, uh, both your statements.

Holy sh**. And I thought my $20 deal on Jazz was hot.

Hey all, I've just uploaded my video review of the Japanese version of RiD Deployer Crazybolt. Aside from me not getting the deployer gimmick to work I'm overly impressed with how great the deco looks on the Japanese one over the domestic one.

Didn't see this earlier, sorry for taking five days to reply! I think the little version is just as fun, since it essentially transforms the same exact way and you can move the elbows without fear. Plus it has a rockin' awesome clear T-Rex helmet that the T-Rex itself can wear.william-james88 wrote:Scotty P, do you find this smaller Grimlock to be as good as the Warrior class version?
Hmm, yeah, I think I like the smaller one over the Warrior class version. The Voyager is still the best so far though.

Thanks And hell yeah about that Voyager version! What I find fun about the smaller version too is that I can use it with my Legion RID figures to evoke Grimlock's size compared to his team.

YES! Would you mind adding your little cobo watermark and sending me that in a PM, I was just writing something that needed that. Also remember that photo of all those Scout and Legends class TFs you took. It had your united windchargers among the 4 scouts. I seem to have lost it. Pretty please with a cherry on top

He's an amazing homage and an incredible robot mode, but the designers about 4/5 through development remembered "Oh shit, this guy's supposed to be a Transformer", and hastily folded him up into nothing and pretended it's a vehicle mode.

Gotta agree. His bot mode is bloody fantastic (though not a fan of face plate-less head) but that vehicle mode is a stretch...and I don't mean because of the length.

Yeah, that altmode is a letdown, but at the very least, I kinda feel like the more uniform Takara deco makes the altmode look slightly less offensive than it looks with the Hasbro deco's use of a rather unappealing shade of white/gray.Kurona wrote:and an incredible robot mode, but the designers about 4/5 through development remembered "Oh SHIZZLESNIT, this guy's supposed to be a Transformer", and hastily folded him up into nothing and pretended it's a vehicle mode.

The former. This figure comes with its own Prime Decepticon Hunter that's of a different mold than the one included with OP Supreme Mode. And the last pic has simply it holding the Supreme Mode one.chuckdawg1999 wrote:Am I seeing things or does the sword from this figure and Supreme Prime combine somehow?

Really? I'm asking because something seems off with the hilt

It's rotated differently from the other pics in relation to the blade. Also I thought the hilt was gray and chrome while this one looks black
Posted by Sabrblade on June 26th, 2016 @ 12:24am CDT
Oh snap, wait, now I see what you see. In the last pic, right? It does look like the Supreme Mode one is plugged into the hilt of the Hyper Surge one. That's awesome.chuckdawg1999 wrote:Sabrblade wrote:How so?chuckdawg1999 wrote:Sabrblade wrote:The former.

You are not alone. He is going to be my Thunderclash stand-in.
Until he dies, or I find some-bot better....
