I had the same idea with the Double Pretender and the solid blue beetle!
The extra part still fits in the shell with Megatron and Spacewarp, though honestly that shell tends to have Cerebros in it more often...
On some level this looks like my 40+ year old head canon, where I had Roboto as a Greyskull guardian maintaining all that tech in my toy of the castle (because it didn't make any sense on my head as a kid that a sorceress would be keeping it all working). In my setup now I have the two Roboto...
The weird thing is, though I don't own one and know little about the character, Two-Bad looks like the sort of thing that you could get a MasterVerse figure, put it with Origins, and have it look appropriately oversized and monstrous two-headed-ogre style.
My biggest issue with G1 Powermaster Prime was the trailer hitch, I think because it connected so high up on that swing arm, that pulling/pushing the truck (I was a kid) leveraged it and eventually snapped the peg. It is a plain 5mm peg in a 5mm hole, so it won't fall out like the original, it...
We could call him Vehicle Lion Combiner, or 'VLC'. His special power is he can play nearly anything.
And the fork was my attempt to find something that would look like a farm implement. My FAILED attempt, sure, but...
Only two out of five WalMarts in driving distance carry MOTU, and I actually did ask the ones that don't if they would be getting any in. In all cases, they no longer carried the line and could actually check a computer and tell that, so it's clearly not just a restock issue. And end result of...
I know 'distribution gripes' are common for any franchise, but when the store that is supposed to carry your exclusives discontinues the entire line on a store by store basis (this being Wal-Mart, many of which no longer carry MOTU at all in their stores, but in no consistent pattern) it...
At the time I was thinking of those con cosplay groups where one girl only has the loosest idea of the character she's trying to do, but gets all the attention.
Also posted with a little tech-spec blurb in the Personal Canon thread, The Safari Ltd. armored T-Rex and Triceratops, used exactly as they came, no mods of any kind, work shockingly well. If no 3rd party steps up with a shell set, I am using these as-is.
This works way better than it should. Safari Ltd. armored T-Rex and Triceratops, used exactly as they came, no mods of any kind. If no 3rd party steps up with a shell set, I am using these with my own little head-canon alteration:
Name: Spike and Trike
Species: Tribrid Dinosaur...
It actually makes sense if you want the sense of 'size change' that no toy can actually accomplish. And don't get me wrong, I'm not stopping everything. Like recently, my nephew was watching the OLD movie (again and again) and so for Halloween for him, I got him the two-pack of dead Ratchet...
This reminds me...
Or that time I used Shockwave and Shockwave to make a comic about Shockwave...
But in the end, though, we all have a little Shockwave in all of us. Mostly the microplastics that will give us cancer later.
There is also, outside the cost and space issues, the simple fact that I am not getting any younger. And when I do have to go, do I want to leave a mountain of plastic that most of my family will have only the slightest idea what to do with? This is also why I'm judging a lot more strictly on...
