God drat, what a stupid loving toyline. Where the gently caress do I preorder every single goddamned one of these things? Edit: Oh man, I can fit 12 detolfs into the display space in my new basement. Rhyno fucked around with this message at 19:57 on Oct 23, 2018 |

I must have the Penguin bot. And any shark related ones if they exist. Penguin bot shall chill out (pun intended) with Momokapool on my old Mac IIsi because Penguins own. How can people not like these?

Is the BotBots art by the guy who did Lil' Formers? Looks similar.

Does not look similar except for having big heads. Proportions beyond that are much different. And lil formers could only do stiff standing figures and could not do all the crazy poo poo in these pictures.

Haven't seen a SS ironhide in the wild yet. How long until people stop trying to scalp him for double.

He's not great, should probably have just waited for the MPM. Tabbing his truck sides together required the most force I have ever used on a transforming toy without breaking it.

Packing fragile stuff is super tedious. But I am so hype for this move. My current "nerd room" is 140 sq ft. The new one is 400. I don't even know what I'm going to do with all this space.

Keep in mind, I'm talking about the real deal, big miniature set with buildings and trees and poo poo. It'd be pretty perfectly in scale with some Transformers too. Some times.

If you go with matchbox scale (1/64) you're in scale with diaclone and will do alright with transformers. I mean that's about as close to "common scale" as any other. That's tricky with HO being 1/87 scale, but there actually are true 1/64 scale diorama models available now (S-Scale). Ah the wonders of the internet.

A lot of the Legion class stuff is roughly 1/72 scale if you're into that sort of thing, or at least the older lines that had "commanders" were.

My dream display should I ever become rich and poo poo Have a huge miniature train set thing, with elaborate city stuff around it. Populate it with my Godzillas and Transformers and Power Rangers, gently caress the scale, just have them all together. RoboCop riding atop ED209 chasing a train

And when you die, I will pay to see that in your family's memorial basement. Edit Me and my wife already have plans for the giant train display house after the kids leave for college. It'll be like the whole upstairs. We want to move thru our house like railfan hamsters, popping up in the middle of themed rooms after a good crawl.

Captain Invictus posted:Good idea, but I kinda wish we got licensed stuff to-scale like them. I distinctly remember a transforming Pepsi can from the 80's that was bad but the concept was good, actual transforming thing that contained something else inside Funny you should mention the cherry coke bot, I just stumbled across mine.
