    If they really want to convince me to buy their DINObot, then show me the DINO mode. Excluding Grimlock, the Dinobots spent like, entire episodes in dino mode. It's almost like robot-mode is their alt-mode.

    Really should have been 2 long movies, like Kill Bill. It's way more than 1, but just not enough to make 3 out of, even with all the addendums/notes/filler/Legolas they could stuff in.

    Even retro-er: The Japanese Famicom version of Castlevania 3 had better music. Literally had an additional soundchip the US one didn't. Thus, we got "simplified" versions of the music. Here's the REAL soundtrack: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tdlOdjd1DMo Be sure to click "show more" to open up the clickable track-list.

    The size range you specified covers the majority of TF figures ever made. Asking for Razorclaw to be larger than the limbs is kinda against how the team has always been portrayed, as that is against toy/animation/comic. The Predacons have always been the exception in that they are explicitly all the same size. They are not a scramble-city combiner. But what you're asking for I think may be closest to UT's version.

    How can you mention Castlevania 4 and not its music?
  6. David Hingtgen
    If you're including everything from a wave 1 Deluxe like Starscream, to a Voyager like Springer---then---all of them really. UT's bots I think are a bit bigger than Starscream, while MMC's are mostly Springer-ish, in height. TFC's---well, Nemean is bigger than all of those, but the limb bots are much smaller and unknown exactly what size they'll be. You kind of HAVE to pick SOMETHING to base a size comparison on. You can't exclude real-life alt-mode and the G1 toy and the G1 animation---there's nothing left. That said--my Predaking will be much larger than my Menasor. That's correct IMHO.

    There's that word again.

    That's a fan's 'shop. Real thing could be bigger or smaller. I just don't want you to be disappointed if/when Ares doesn't utterly tower over the other gestalts. I do think he will be taller than Feral Rex, it's just not going to be nearly what comparing the torso-bots would imply.
  9. David Hingtgen
    You do realize that the other TFC Predacons are much much smaller? The MMC figures are all roughly equal to each other, but TFC has a much larger torso-bot.

    That's like the opposite of a MAXL's shape, in battroid mode. Mylene has skinny little legs, her valk most certainly does not.
  11. David Hingtgen
    Oh yeah, I've been thinking of redoing the entire rear end since the beginning, to have it split open and deploy something. Just leave the wings fully extended all the time.
  12. David Hingtgen
    You could almost do that with Leader Jetfire. Only about a one-inch section is shared between modes. (But it was multi-pinned and critical)

    Benny's ship doesn't separate or anything special "up front". The hatch is just a hatch, there's a mostly empty compartment below. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pWDQ-rGYrWw

    I had nearly every "actual" Lego set from McDonalds. They were pretty nice, just as good as sets you'd buy from a store. So disappointed that modern Happy Meals have "fake" Lego cars etc. Even a 10-piece set would be better than that...

    I'm a *huge* train fan---but that sucks.

    Looks better in blue: (not mine of course, I wish I could paint like that)

    This may help: (click for bigger)

    How far did you get? FFX is one of the few in the series that really gets good/pays off at the end.
  19. David Hingtgen
    OMG, that *is* awesome! Never noticed that.

    I'm guessing they moved to electric ones to save weight, like the 787 does. Hydraulic lines, pumps, and the gallons of fluid itself, all add up, weight-wise.
  21. David Hingtgen
    They've been going with thin wings? That seems pointless, considering thicker supercritical profiles for trans-sonic supercruise and fuel capacity.
  22. David Hingtgen
    Yeah, the moment the "sword" scene happened and what Fenice did, I knew what was coming----then was very disappointed it didn't happen. Anyways, as for "interfering with an ongoing match"-----key word being ongoing. The match was over,and officially decided at that point, they just hadn't "shut off the particle generator" etc.
  23. David Hingtgen
    Have monorail parts, will buy.
  24. David Hingtgen
    Honestly I really can't explain the large actuators----AFAIK the F-22 has a relatively thick wing, for fuel capacity. (and so many 1980+ designs are supercritical anyways) Deflection rate is rarely an issue----even airliners can move their massive ailerons in the blink of an eye when they want to, with totally internal actuators.
  25. David Hingtgen
    Yeah, that info is very useful, as I'm running low on Tamiya Flat Base and it seems unavailable for the time being.
