I had thought of this before, and if you wanted to start a "War Within" figure set you could technically include a couple of the G1 toys that were seen in War Within. For instance Topspin, Twin Twist, Shockwave and Bugly (without his pretender shell) all appeared in War Within. You could probably infer that the Technobots looked exactly the way they do now too. So that's 9 more figures for a War Within collection.

 

I thought about this, but that basically just comes down to a decision of which shelf to place certain figs on. I'm really just concerned with newer figs based on the comic designs, not so much older figs that made it into the comics. Obviously a lot of G1 and later toys were already in their "Cybertronian" forms because they never got earth modes.

 

Getting back to Stormbringer (and taking into consideration how a lot of recent comic designs are based on upcoming figures), what kind of design did they use for Bludgeon? Was it similar to the Movie/Universe figure that's coming out soon?

 

I also thought about the Botcon "Wings of Honor" Kup figure... I don't want to split hairs too much over this one (and I'll probably never buy him since it was a Botcon exclu$ive), but it WAS "young Kup," but I'm not sure what continuity his story is supposed to fall into, and I haven't had a chance to read the Botcon comics he was in.

Okay, I lied. I DID end up buying a Wings of Honor Botcon Kup, mainly because I found one for a good price and I thought it was an awesome figure. The only other one I'm missing that I'm really interested in is Titanium Sunstorm... who would've guessed he would be so hard to find, even online??

 

Any other suggestions?

Check with Prowlclone. He may have one to sell or trade.
