    I just realised, with the new RiD Drift out, that means we're only one Drift away from being able to customise a Driftotron.
    Helicopter Voyager for the torso, cars for the limbs.

    C'mon Hasbro, just one more...

    Well, it could be done already....

    You have Classic-verse Drift and Mirror-verse Drift as the legs. The RID Drift as one arm, with the Movie Drift as the Helicopter torso AND as a car arm... because Drift is so awesome and fast, he's able to keep transforming from both modes, that the naked eye sees them both at the same time.
    And then you have the Arms Micron redeco of the Minicon Dirtboss (who was called Drift in Japan), as a chest piece.

    I considered SG Drift as another limb, but I was hoping for different molds for each limb...not really sure why come to think about it since Takara's plan for their combiners involves a lot of repaints/minimal remolds. The chest-piece idea is brilliant though.
    Either way, Hasbro is totally missing an opportunity with their choices for their Fan-built combiner. C'mon Hasbro...where's Driftotron?

    Hehehe... I immediately thought of this posting after seeing the Kreo display at the US Toyfair having a Bumblebee combiner and Optimus combiner that were just 5 Kreons of each character.
    I think none of us would have been remotely serious about having an officially released combiner made up of just the one character... but then Hasbro comes out and does it.

    It kinda ruins the whole pun of a Driftotron being a combiner of Drifts to maximise his awesomeness...
