    And did anyone mention Monzo's relationship to Australian Transfandom?

    Now that I've acquired these so far...

    Octane
    : It's ok
    Sunstreaker: Nice but could be better quality
    Prowl: Good but shoulda tried harder on the paint job
    Silverbolt: Good for real little kids
    Onslaught: My pick of the bunch
    Powerglide: I just don't dig tits on a guy
    Blaster: Just a repaint
    Heavy Load: Why is he even in there?


    Overall 6/10 and nowhere near as good as Classics 1.0

    Where's the 'meh' emoticon?

    ok so after getting most of the toys and giving them a good once over im ready to make popper comments:

    Sunstreaker:
    Really nice figure. Good to play with but also has a good display quality. only problem with mine is the right arm keeps coming off. otherwise a great figure. my pick of the deluxes for sure.

    Prowl:
    Got a good paintjob on mine(pure luck i might add :P) and am very happy with it. almost as cool as sunstreaker, but not quite, mainly because the doors annoy me so much. apart from that a good toy as well.

    Galvatron
    Looks awesome, apart from the random bits of orange, and the weird gray, would have picked a better colour personally. too fiddly to transform, but poses and looks great.

    Tankor:
    Really expected more and didn't get it. Dodgy transformation in my view, and really doesn't look that good in any mode. most likely my most unloved of the lot.

    now for my ultras:

    Powerglide:
    the orange man cans dont do if for me tbqh. not a great toy either. the transformation is boring and silly, but then again im sure i didn't do it exactly right cause mine didn't come with instructions for some odd reason. very meh

    Onslaught:
    Absolutely love him. He looks awesome, works so well. Transforming is fun and easy, and looks good in both modes, although the robot mode looks better. My fav universe so far

    I totally disagree. Magnus' arms and legs both have different folds and transformations. I have to say that Magnus is one helluva an awesome toy in comparison to Onslaught. Plus the arms and the back shoulder both work in the transformation and nor is it firm. I reckon the two are different enough and comparing joe average Onslaught to the quality of Magnus is grossly unfair.

    (Yes, I love Magnus, go deal with it )

    My 1% margin is VERY wide.

    Hehe. At least you agree with the quality of Magnus.

    Eventhough a lot of these larger sized figures have simple transformations, at least they are very graceful and elegant. With the exception of Silverbolt. BOOO!

    i just picked up streaker, great figure, good transformation without being too difficult. awesome poseablity. The Alt mode looks a little strange though, i think the wheels are too small in scale with the chassis?

    i was just wondering what the 4 holes on the roof are for?

    Also i noticed 2 of these above the autobot logo where on the packaging pictures these holes are covred by some sort of black plate.

    Am i missing this part on mine?
