I really want to like these because the packaging is pretty dang spiffy, but I can't buy stuff for that alone, especially now. And certainly not at those prices. Hell, I'd sooner get an art book compiling all the cardback art. I want more Transformers art books in general. Just put that directly...

I'm hoping that with the UT-era nostalgia they're starting to tap into for Legacy on, some other 2000s-era stuff like Alternators, Universe, Robotmasters, and such get some love. There are a lot of possibilities.

That's... not really how sentai teams work. Traditionally, at least. (insert "um actually" exception-to-the-rule) That'd be like getting MMPR Red, Dino Thunder Black, Dino Fury Blue, SPD Pink, Beast Morphers Yellow, the Grinch, Grimace, Kirby, and Bumblebee.

Been wanting to make this for a while now. I should check if I have enough Mica Blue left though. Still, gonna need a Reprolabels set to complete that look. The BH Smokescreen is a nice close-enough alternative, but per usual it's bundled with nonsense I don't want.

Looks cool!

Was doing some idle thinking, and in the Never Gonna Happen But What If category, I wonder if a weird subline crossover would get shell Pretenders to work: RED series figures of the shells with hollow torsos or backpacks, and Micromasters of the inner robots in the main TF line. The latter...

Um ok

Tried to come up with something the same "size" as Velocitron, but informed a bit by versus pairings. Not 2-packs, just rivalries referenced on packaging. Don't have it in me to wrangle a theme at the moment, though. Idk, maybe the rivalries are it. Nova Prime has established a Cauldron-like...

I wish they'd make weapons/parts optional from sets. Almost never need those (I just got the Action Master Op stacks/guns and the Siege Seeker tip fins) and they affect both pack price and shipping. Also, a more recent thing is they seem unwilling to sell any Buzzworthy Silverstreak stuff...

I'm still somewhat nonplussed that we wound up with three distinct hood-leg robots in such short order (Wheeljack, Sunstreaker, Runamuck). Four if you count Cliffjumper. Very cool.

This thread is making me anxious at all the possibilities. Great ideas, all.

True, just not sure which one Double Punch is most portrayed as using.

That Stegus is a hit with the ladies. Also...

Yo, I appreciate this. Instant mock-up for whenever I get around to it. Which head is more appropriate, I wonder?

I have gone back and forth on that, yeah. I just latched onto CC Scorp because that just involves using one figure instead of two. But Sandstorm would contribute some good base parts like the claws and scorpion legs.

Also been mulling the idea of how much it'd take to turn Creatures Collide toy colors Scorponok into BC Japan 99 Double Punch. Seems like it'd just need a few coats of red... but then, what are the odds of Hasbro also making one? They have already used this mold like three times. Can hang with...

I've been mulling the idea of using Skywasp and Buzzsaw parts to make a T30 Venin.

Throwback to these neat ones, fated to be retired one by one... My customizing took a really hard lean into eHobby/Diaclone territory a couple years ago (I've said before how fond I am of that era of reissues/redecos), and now that official versions are becoming more and more the norm, these...

Oh DAMN. I should check that page. It looks like it might be game on...

I think my Aragon was okay, but I got two Cogs (one for a custom) and one had looseish guns and the other was okay. Haven't got Red Cog yet, but am considering it.
