There are atandarfs to maintain.

And what I find amusing is that people will pay $345 for an official combiner (with silly hands/feet) but not a highly detailed 3rd party combiner. It kind of kills the whole cost argument.

Yes. Now go to your room and don't play with yourself.

I'm not sure what you were expecting.
The combined mode is tertiary, a bonus. It's the individual bot homages I care about.

SW's SilverHammer wrote:Windsweeper would work better as something like an FOC seeker with a new head due how the robot mode looks, and how the guns can be placed on the arms.

This is G1 Windsweeper. I just don't understand how an FOC Seeker would be better than Skydive in any possible respect.

I actually respect this Bludgeon, and foresee liking him a helluva lot. It's basically using the same philosophy that gave us ROTF voyager Bludeon, who garners near-universal admiration, but this Bludgeon comes from the other direction. Where ROTF Bludgeon integrated aspects of the inner robot into the shell design, this Bludgeon integrates aspects of the shell into the inner robot design. Or, say the shell is predominant in ROTF where the inner robot is predominant in TFSS. Either way, I think it's quite clever and like what they did.

It'd work better than skydive for the pure fact the guns can be mounted on the arms, or be under-slung created a more accurate silhouette, and the wings point upward. also that figure needs to have as many crazy deco's as possible, so putting it in pinks, mauve's, and salmon would be great.megatronus wrote:SW's SilverHammer wrote:Bludgeon, not sure what to use for him, not sure i'd even use him.

While I agree it's interesting to focus on the inner robot in this instance, it doesn't work because bludgeon's a small tank. If they took this approach a reuse of the CW brawl, Generations straxus, Warpath, or even WFC megatron, it'd work better.

Or maybe "Mayhem Maximus".
