Let's just hope Hasbro continue making these more realistic (I refuse to call them movie) Animated toys as Lockdown and now Lugnut are totally brilliant.
As someone who doesn't collect anything Animated, this Lugnut mold looks freaking awesome IMO.
My only problem though?:
If I were to pick him up, who would I display him with?
I mean, he's moved beyond his previously ugly Animated aesthetic, but he's too 'Movie' orientated to go with my Classics figures... This dilemma might actually prevent me from picking him up at all.
Suggestions please people as I really dig this figure but can't stand solitary figures when trying to display them.![]()

Grappel and Lugnut look sweet. Grappel is a more extensive retool than I was expecting -- I thought they'd just change the alt mode parts and repaint the rest of the toy, but looking at this picture you can tell the head, forearms and hands are different from Inferno too. Sweet.Strafe does nothing for me, so I big pass on him.
So display him with your movie figures. Sea Spray was initially intended for "Classics" - and arguably ROTF Bludgeon too - but the final products place them in the movie universe, so I display them on my movie TF shelves.Originally Posted by Hursticon
Hmm...
I guess one could put him with the 'Movie' figures but he 'sits on the fence' so bloody annoyingly which is sort of the reason why I've not picked up Seaspray either.
Agreed - ROTF Bludgeon should've gone in the Classics line, but I bought him anyway just because the character oozes so much Awesome it's ridiculous!
Dude, I'm way ahead of you on the shelving department - I'm trying to build a display case out of necessity more than opportunity though.![]()

Yeah I'm a bit of the same. At last I am able to display my collection properly, now that I own (most my own) place, and I just plain need to show stuff, because what's the point of if being all in boxes?
But how do I display things properly?
Open Shelves? Display Cases? Glass? Wood?
How it tasks me so.
Strafe's really getting some love nowadays (I bet Nosecone's feeling neglected), but that's a pretty badlt forced repaint.
Eagerly waiting for Masterpiece Meister
Yep I'll be getting Grapple.
HATRED FOR JAMES VAN DER BEEK RISING!
