    I have Menasor's combined sword in one hand, Off Road's Axe at the top of his other hand, with Dragstrip's blade on the under side, while I have Breakdown's rifle in Motormaster's hand (as a shoulder gun for Menasor) and Dead End's pipe as an exhaust pipe in MM's other hand.

    The full set of 2015 Generations toys, for anyone wanting to see how they scale with each other.

    A slightly different shot:



    Despite my usual 'only buying one' of a figure I've found I want the CW toys in both the individual bot and Gestalt modes. This has meant that I've had to buy 2 Rooks and 2 Blackjacks, but with the others from the four original teams I'm getting the Hasbro and Tak/Tom versions so there is a bit of variety. Just need UW Devastator and Defensor and this scene will be complete

    After setting up this scene I finally understand why some people complained that Devastator is not in scale with the other combiners. But frag he looks cool so ya kinda have to overlook it


    Oh, and I do have all the figures to make up Optimus Maximus - but I don't think I'll ever bother

    Plugged some limbs into Hot Spot tonight, creating my first CW Gestalt. The final effect is actually pretty good huh. The feet are too small but it does create a nice sized large robot. On the shelf next to an RID Warrior BB it looks exactly how I want a giant robot to look.

    Maybe I will keep Superion and get the missing parts of Menasor.

    After playing around with the Wave 4 Autobots, I actually like them far more than their original molds! Didn't expect to since (esp Prowl, who is my third 'Dead End' mold), but it's pretty amazing what a splash of paint and a new head will do!

    Order from Shapeway the Yellow and Purple replacement kit for Rodimus and Blackjack. Have to say loving this on Rodimus.



    The gun makes is used in combine mode to make the chest piece attach more firmly.

    I ordered one myself for rodimus with the replacement antennas for superion

    When you use the yellow gun-axe for rodimus in combine mode is it tight fitting as it says on the page that there is a small percentage that they are loose fitting?

    I got my first CW figure last week and it was... Rook.

    I really fun, simple and sturdy figure. The critical combiner port also seems a very solid piece of engineering while the hand/foot is adequate but could have been better if a rrp was not a consideration.

    Despite the potential for "mold reuse fatigue" I am really looking forward to most of the UN/CW line up.

    Tformers have started putting up reviews for the Combaticons. That one and only CW all new mould we've been waiting for for ages turns out to have a massive design flaw. Quite disappointing tbh.
