Post Pictures of your Transformers, Let's see 40 years worth of Transformers!
- Thread starter Ave Destron
- Start date
They'll make .5 past lightspeed. They may not look like much, but they've got it where it counts, kid. They've made a lot of special modifications themselves.
Having some destructo-fun with this set.
I thought the plural of Junkion was 'heap'...?
The Trash Heap has spoken, nyeeeeeeah.
Better than a collection of non-diesel Thomas-type locomotives. I don't know if "Steaming Pile" ever caught on.
The (derogatory) term for them would be "Steamies".

I think this might be my first ROTB-proper product, oddly enough (as such, nothing to really measure height/scale against -- here, have a Flamewar). It's neat how close this is to Energon Arcee in so many respects. It's just missing a joint to flip the wheel-halves up above the shoulders. Also 2007 Arcee a little, but then that also took a lot of cues from the Energon one (this one's just missing a crossbow weapon to hide the hands in altmode).
I'm sure there's a lot of things that don't work for scale in both modes that I'm missing, but I can take that kind of fudgery given the price difference between this and the Core class figure was pretty minimal locally. As good as the Core class figure is, for a more sizeable figure that looked good standing next to everyone in robot mode, AND had a little partner buddy (even partly de-spotted), it made more sense to me to get this.
I still don't like the way the backpack ends up, but I appreciate that she has a neck (wasn't sure if I should expect one at this price point). Never noticed before that she now seems to have dangly earring shapes in addition to her Princess Leia helmet buns.
It's a solid mold, I think, given the limitations. The way it reminds me of Energon Arcee makes me want a ton of redecos.

Have fun building OP, I got mine some time ago and built him but in one area, he not really that great due to the desgin and the bricks used, so I hope you got some bricks on stand by to deal with that problem
I don't have mine in front of me, but by memory, I'd say it's pretty on-par with the original Masterpiece Prime. It's a pretty solid design, though I think there's a misprint in the instructions about the leg stickers.
