How is that a flex?

Landfill ain't exactly something an ignoramus would know about.

Yeah, Landfill is something I've heard a lot of even casual fans to go "Huh, who's that?" here and there.
Transformers is a pretty big brand split pretty noticeably across various regions, can't blame a guy for not being super familiar with every nook and cranny - especially as just the designer. Cool that he still does know some of the more "out there" things, though.

Check your Cliffjumpers. Like Brawn the small gun that comes with CJ can fall out of the tray and if you're lucky end up in the shipping box.

It's probably come up already. But if these re-releases happen, what are the odds of sequels/continuations?

Devastation did end on a cliffhanger. Arguably so did Fall of Cybertron. Unfortunately a pseudo-sequel did kill that momentum outright.

Also interesting to think that the Genericons of both games (and the Armada game) could in theory be represented in this line. Also Nemesis Prime ala Devastation's design.

So i got Cliffjumper and Megatron this weekend.

i found the Bee mold acceptable, and it can be fun, especially since I didn't get very many WFC/FOC molds back in the day, since I was a highschooler. Cliff continues that. He is decent, and I like the headsculpt. I need to pair him up with Jazz now.

As for Megatron, he is a legitimately bad figure in hand. The sculpt looks good, but that is about it. The knees really are terrible, they can lock in 2 positions and there is no inbetween or further movement. He also feels small in hand, compared to Prime. And considering his big ass weapon, I really thought he would have wrists, and he doesn't, which sucks. I don't like him, he's not good.

He does pull off some nice blast effects shots though

the squad so far, and the squad with more WFC-esque figures

Am I the only one that hasn't found any of these in stores or is that basically how it is for everyone?

I've seen those two as well as Bumblebee and Airazor a few times, haven't seen Scourge yet. Still, feels like two waves behind with Cliffjumper out now.

For anyone who wanted to see the new Cliffjumper with FOC Jazz

Finished painting up WFC Bee! This figure grew on me a lot as I painted it, it's definitely better in-hand than early pics made it look. Still has some proportional issues, but I'm actually really enjoying it now!

I don't think I'll be getting too many of these figures, but I am glad I got Bee!

Oh, wow. Those new paint apps actually make the proportional issues look negligible.

Thank you! I think the big details that help the proportions are the gunmetal on the lower legs and the alt mode flap that pokes below the chest that I painted to resemble Bee's lower abdomen

Yup. I "hate" that bee, but with more paint, I love it!

Still, there's one very important detail missing, and that's something you can't do with paint. The glowing neon lights details.
So, I really recommend you to get the Reprolabels for Gamer Bee. Then apply the labels needed only. With your paint and the Repros, you'll have perfection.

Thanks! Those reprolabels do look very nice, I wouldn't be able to get the same reflective effect with paint.

Ge5 the best of both worlds!

Plus the leftover labels could always be used for something else.

Is it just me or does Screamer look small? Like, really small. Don't worry about reviving dead forums, this past week I was getting notifications about the Titans Return forum.

Oh boy. Screamers look like he have a wasp abdomen as a chest. That cockpit part looks vile.

As long as it's on topic nobody is going to care.

BTW, you can attach multiple images, you don't need to make a post for each one.

Starscream's chest seems really bulbous.

Dunno what it is about gamer edition, but there have been some odd choices made.

That chest could have been made with a fake part while the real cockpit would have been hidden inside. I think the inevitable Reprolabels set will fix that.

As forvthe vehicle mode it's accurate to the concept art, but I haven found a clear picture of the in game model.

Starscream looked way better in today's reveal than in any of the pictures. It seems that it's not an ugly toy, but rather, just not a very photogenic one when it comes to still images.
