Look who joined the Freaks.....Frenzy_Rumble.
Hi.
I just got HA Skids and he seems pretty awesome. Soon Mudflap will be out and I'll be getting him.

Aside for the placement of the door wings I think HA Skids is pretty damn good and I'm looking forward to getting his bro too. Gotta have that Simmons figure!
Dubz,
Nice work on Prime, I think many customisers would be more than happy to achieve that level of quality so if you feel you can improve further then go for it!

I do believe it's supposed to be "based off" Springer. Looks like a cross between his War Within design and his All Hail Megatron design.
Pretty bad ass.

I really like HA Skids, but my two biggest gripes with it are the limited articulation at the shoulders and the fact that they painted Chromia red and called her Arcee.
Fair points which I agree with. especially the messup with the bikes. How Hasbro managed to get that wrong with all the access to concept art and CGI models they would have is pretty lame even for them.
Anyone want a Classics scaled Rumble lookalike that transforms into a Targetmaster?,

Obviously it's expensive for what's effectively a glorifed Scout Class but it's an amazing little figure that's even got the piledrivers like the G1 animation models. Variants are planned that are more like the G1 color schemes for Rumble & Frenzy so I think I'll wait for those as they'll look awesome displayed with Music Label Soundwave and Device Label Ravage.
Has/Tak = OWNED! ( again! )

BBTS is always horribly overpriced. I'll wait and see the prices on other stores myself. I really don't like those blue pinstripes, though...
And holy crap, I have to admit, Fans Project did a pretty awesome job with this:

It's smaller then a scout and 37 bucks WITHOUT shipping, which will be the stuff of nightmares when you order it from Europe. Not only that, it doesn't even have the Rumble/Frenzy colors, so they're making a pointless variation first instead of the one thing that everybody wants.
So 'owned', my ass. You can import several great scout figures from the US for that price anyways, if the UK prices bother you THAT much.
Though now I'm left wondering what the new Soundwave figure will be like.
Since we have one for the new cartoon, and Universe 3.0 is supposed to have one as well.

That whole appendage add on is amazing, totally buying it. I really like that they are taking the extra step to create new things, like the shuttle/figure/launching pad.
Very cool.

I can get this direct from a UK dealer who is selling it for £24.95 which is like paying the UK price for 3 ROTF Scouts and none of those are close to being as appealing as a new version of Rumble that actually looks like some real thought was put into it.
Hasbro's recent Universe Ravage was pathetic so I'm not gonna wait and see what crap they'll come up with should they ever bother to make a new Rumble and I couldn't care less about whatever gets released in Universe 3.0 as I already have Music Label Soundwave.

Ah, fair deal then.
But what's wrong with Ravage? He's a free toy tossed in with an awesome deluxe, and very well engineered considering that, especially because he can actually turn into a casette that fits in the original Soundwave.

Who here would be interested in free flame stencils for rotf leader prime?
No worries, we may not always agree but the fact that we never let things descend into an insult contest is a refreshing change from a lot of people on the actual TF sites
I suppose if you look at Ravage as a freebie he's sorta OK but I think it's inferior to the original which considering the advances in toy engineering in the last 25 years kinda sucks.
Thankfully Takara have made it obsolete by releasing the amazing ( though somewhat expensive ) Device Label Ravage which really is the ultimate version of G1 Ravage's cat mode and the memory stick alt mode is a beliveable modern alternative to a cassette.

Indeed. I swear, some of those sites are filled with almost nothing but retards.
Huh, really? I like him quite a bit more then the original, only weird thing is that 'beak'.
See, I'm conflicted about that. ML Soundwave and DL Ravage are GREAT figures, but just not worth the cost for me. I would buy them in a heartbeat if they were released without the gimmicks, but come on, they're overpriced for features you'd never really use anyways. Ravage would have been worth the cost if he didn't have such a ridicously small memory...
That reminds me, I need to get RotF Ravage.
The head is a bit weird, but otherwise he's a great representation of the movie version, and the more G1-esque colors make him look better and more vicious as well.Indeed. I swear, some of those sites are filled with almost nothing but retards.

You have a point on ML Soundwave, I was fortunate enough to get mine for something like £35 shipped which was a lot less than it usually went for on ebay at the time so didn't think it was too bad but I keep going back and forth on whether I want to pay just under that for Ravage though I think I'll probably bite in the near future.
Though they inevitably play a part in the pricing I never really consider the MP3/memory stick features as I buy them purely as TF's. With ML Soundwave my thought process was,
1.Looked at pics on a TF site.
2.Checked prices on ebay.
3.Discovered one much cheaper than usual.
4.Clicked "Buy It Now".
Hours later,
"The MP3 player actually works too!"
Funny you should mention ROTF Ravage as I got my first look at one in person at work today and think it's decent.
I'd really like a Legends or Scout Class version though as it'd be much more in scale with the HA line. That way I could get one to customise and have Bumblebee posed ripping it to pieces like in the movie.

RotF Lockdown pics, and I gotta say that he looks pretty badass.

Doesn't really look much different to the Animated Lockdown and I think this along with all the other non Movie characters Hasbro have made for the ROTF line are a waste of their budget especially when there's several characters that were actually in the movies that still haven't got a decent toy.
I can't be the only one that would sooner have seen a Leader Class Ironhide, Long Haul or Blackout/Grindor, an all new Voyager Ratchet mold and maybe a suprise like a Human Alliance Jazz instead of ugly ass crap like Bludgeon, Brawn, Dirge, Mindwipe & co.
