    Mindwipe is a Voyager, so he'd be a bit larger than Tomahawk, but not especially so.

    Wheeljack looks great. Scourge is pretty good. Not interested in the two that should be tapes...I'm really, really tired of every Decepticon having to be a tank, I have like five now.

    The G2 remake Prime doesn't have any of the things that look cool about the actual G2 toy. Worse paint scheme, something about the chest looks wonky, different sword...no giant gasoline trailer, no firing missiles I assume...

    yeah, not a huge fan of the G2 Prime, but my bro digs him

    I'm just happy to get new Frenzy/Rumble and Scourge at all

    Wheeljack is pure love

    That is a sweet Wheeljack. Scourge is kind of interesting. Frenzy and Rumble? Tanks, but no tanks, amirite? And this might have to be the first OP I skip on in quite some time.

    G2 Optimus is what rekindled my love for Transformers, basically. I mean, I watched TF as a kid, but sort of forgot about it during pre/early adolescence. I saw an ad for LASER ROD OPTIMUS PRIME and asked for it for Christmas one year, and actually got it.

    I think that one looks like a decent figure, but it's way too similar to the Armada Optimus, which I bought (scout class) and was greatly disappointed by.

    the leader class armada prime was loads better than the scout class one!

    I could buy the trailer separately I guess, but that's dropping another $20 on top of the first.

    All told Super Pants is a pretty crappy toy. Easy to break too thanks to his auto transform gimmick.

    Yeah general consensus is usually that people dislike Super Pants Prime and like Bendy Prime. I like both for different reasons, so whatever.

    I bought the War For Cybertron Bumblebee, Optimus, Megatron, and Soundwave. I haven't opened any of them, but it's disappointing that Bumblebee is the biggest of the 4. I want them appropriately scaled

    I've mostly kind of outgrown transformer toys, but I'd kill for a Masterpiece Megatron.

    So good it's illegal.

    What, killing people to get a toy? I dunno if that would feel good, man, but yeah, that's illegal. :P

    No I mean the toy is, itself, illegal in some places, because of it's resemblance to a real gun. Also, since it's in gun-mode while in the box, it can be tricky to get past customs when ordering internationally.

    Most places open up the box and put a big orange there where the barrel is, to mark it as a toy.

    I keep Bumblebee in car mode...but he's still bigger than the other vehicles.

    Two things.

    One, War For Cybertron 2 has been announced for 2012.

    Two, a TF MMO has been announced; no target date yet.

    As there are no details yet, I figured it didn't rate a new thread in G&T, but still should be announced somewhere. This seemed as good a place as any.

    Masterpiece Megatron is in robot mode out of the box.

    I'm far more interested in the e-hobby movie 6-pack.

    Why yes I will take another of the Cyclonus and Rodimus molds while also getting what looks to be a head remold on Wreck-gar and possibly repaints of Scourge and Kup.

    Yes.

    I picked up Tomahawk, Terradive, Breacher, and Insecticon today. Tomahawk and Terradive are as awesome as everyone's been saying. Tomahawk is what RotF Blaze Master should have been, and Terradive is actually able to get both his hands on his melee weapon. Heresy.

    Breacher and Insecticon are pretty good too, but there's slight issue: they seem to just fold together for the most part--Insecticon especially doesn't seem to have any pegs to hold his various parts in their proper place in either mode, but the transformation points aren't too slippery, so that's okay.

    Got the last Elite Guard code in that Hunt for the Decepticons game. And they weren't kidding when they said "Earn extra powerups!" Before I got the extra codes it took me seven tries to beat Megatron, and it was a near thing. This time I still had energy left in my shield, and only an annoying popup allowed Megatron to damage me at all--and normally he did one- or two-hit kills. Still, for all that, I expected a bit more than "A winnar is you". I guess you get to print out proof you did it, but meh.

    But what the hell am I complaining about? It's a free online game.

    If any one else in Canada wants some, I have three unused codes they can have.

    I picked up Crankcase and Stakeout tonight. Happy! I'll have to play with them tomorrow.

    Crankcase's combined mode head is a dead ringer for Menasor. I guess they had that planned, too. Double Clutch is about to have all his limb drones stolen.
