Got me Bumblebee. I have no clue why I'm picking up this line of figs. I guess I'm feeling nostalgic.

if you take a razor and it cut along those line,then reglue them to the top of the arm, i think it may give him the articulation people want from him, havent figure out how to give him waist/chest articulation yet tho

(keep in mind i dunno if this could work b/c i dont own him, but in theory i think it should)

It's a good line...Starscream kicks the metal butt...

He is the best figure out of the line so far. Hot Rod is pretty cool too. I haven't picked up Astro Train or Megatron though. I got Prime too, but I haven't opened it yet.
 
I have the Titaniaum(?I can't spell)...figures of Megatron and O.Prime I like them like that..The Classic line I'm thinking about getting some of the others...

Yeah, I think that could work. I think waist articulation would be easy to do, just cut the robe in half and glue the two pieces onto the base body underneath the figure. Chest articulation would be difficult though.

I think I may end up going with my more radical idea. The green on the robe is all connected, so I think I may cut and separate all of the green from the yellow parts, then replace it with green cloth. Gonna wait until I get another one though before I try anything to fix it.

Opened up both Punisher and Jigsaw, love how they were able to pack in so many weapons with them. Not sure whether I'm going to put to put the Face Off Punisher on my shelf or keep the ML4 one there though, as I like the body and weapons on the Face Off one, but I like the face sculpt on the ML4 Punisher a lot more.

Prime is the best IMO. And I wish they all were about his size.
 
I really dislike that mask on The Mandarin. I don't know why the masked version isn't the variant.
 
Cuz i just picked up the variant today and it doesn't look nearly as good.
 
Mandarin is actually a really good figure under the robe. I'm going to use his body for an easy custom. The robe is just too thick.
 
the body under it is vision/archangels


and ncrawler,just found a much better mod

he used SF gen as the base, and mandarins lower cloak
when i do it, i think im gonna remove those feet though, dont much care for the feet showing
 
So I was running down the hall with some scissors, and I accidently ran into my IM and Mandarian set and wolverine/Sabes set.

Anyway, IM has a weird head. His head goes side to side instead of up and down. I can fix it, I just have to use hot water or something and move the head.

Sabes is ok minus the bad paint app.

Wolverine's legs are bow legged and have to be swapped. Also, when you bend his knees, his knee caps are all kinds of blue.

Mandarian...I waited so long for a descent IM villian....and was let down. Stupid thick robe.

Looks nice, but I want to keep the cloak on Mandarin as close to the Toybiz figure as possible, so I'd have to find a way to get the upper part of Mandarin's cloak onto it. Don't really care if my Mandarin has chest/waist articulation, so I could try and put the entire cloak minus the arms on the
gen body. I think I'm going to go with my fabric idea though, its going to be difficult to do, but I think that it would work really well.
 
Got another few FO packs today. Got another each of the regulars + an extra wolverine pack. Also got the house of M boxset.

One of the wolverine packs will replace the one I have that sucks. Now I can take it back. And the the other will go to Rough.

And the IM and punisher set will go to a guy who is hooking me up with some stuff including a Red Wasp.

Grimlock is right up there with Starscream, IMO.
