heaps if your not an american

Which inconsiderate bot left his weapon unattended that led to Megatron mortally wounding 1986 Movie Prime? You know that purple gun that MP Megs has as an accesory.


And why was the MP Starcream prototype changed from having functional, well made legs to the useless appendages they are now?

Heretic, try hosting that picture on photobucket or something similar because we can't see it..

Good question about MP Starscream, I had never seen those pictures, and I must say that is very sexy, I'm quite happy with how MP Starscream legs turned out, but that looks like it would be a fair bit sturdier.. But sorry, can't answer the question

Kawamori Shouji decided to alter the legs to give the jet mode a more realistic looking underside which reveals less robot kibble.

Wow Kawamori you really stuffed that one up! The fact that I can't stand my seekers on their legs really gives me the irrits.

Thanks Gok, btw who did the gun belong to? The one that Megatron mortally wounded Optimus Prime with in the 1986 movie?

While they can't really do outrageous poses with their tiny feet, mine (Skywarp) can stand up pretty fine and is fairly well balanced i think. If you pop the hip attachments/tail wings off and re-attach to the lower legs, u can basically get the same look as the prototype and a touch more stability cause they form heelspurs.

Are you talking about the one that comes with MP Megatron? I have no idea who originally owned that gun. It was conveniently lying there on the ground when Megatron wanted to blast Prime.



P.S.: I believe it belonged to a Transformer called Plot-device-ticon.

It was a SDCC exclusive but they seem readily available in HK and other place. You can get him for slightly higher than local RRP from Shingstar here
