I don't exactly know what I was expecting for a leader class Thundertron but this was not it. Maybe Tigerhawk redone as an upgraded Thundertron? But wouldn't that have just made it toys colors Tigerhawk? I just want a toy colors Tigerhawk I guess. The white with the actual blue and not the purple. 

Calcitron is so close to the original concept for that mold. So close but also so far. It's looking like Strongarm now though. Like one of those all blue Hasbro ones in the gimmick lines. I love that it matches Thundertron like Spindle matched Impactor.

And as odd as it sounds...I really wanted a Ratbat in these colors. I had gotten two of those Micromaster Generations Selects two packs with the two for Soundwave and the other two for Double Dealer. So after a while I decided to repaint the extra Frenzy into Enemy. I sold the extra Knok and Skar as despite having two Doubledealers I only wanted one set of "Powermasters" to go with them so one could have Knok and the other Skar. So that left me with an extra Wingthing that nobody wanted at the time. So I repainted him into Cybertron Sideways. I got a third to turn into the mass production version of Noisemaze but never got around to it. Meanwhile this is pretty much the colors I was going to use for that custom. It's just that the head is wrong. This is Ratbat's head and the custom only works with Wingthing's head as weird as that sounds. Wingthing's head has a distinct "V" in the middle of it. I was painting that up to be the visor face of the original Cybertron Sideways mold. I linked the characters though the WWI Senator Ratbat release from Universe that also used that mold. So I turned Sideways into another chest minion for Soundwave using Wingthing as a base. The orange helped as I just needed to use some black lol. Okay I used some silver and I even found that green too. The gold as well. 

But yeah, I wish Nightstrike had Wingthing's head.

And it's kind of a shame that Ferak didn't come with a retool of Legacy Peacemaker so that he too could've had a replacement hand of some sort as Peacemaker can "hand on" with the Kingdom Cyclonus mold as you can leave the 5mm thruster as his hand. Not unlike the Universe Cyclonus mold the original Ferak toy was made from. Oh and also have Tornado in the process lol. As is, Ferak is the only Star Seeker so far that has all of their appendages. Oh and Filch too I guess but she's not normally a Star Seeker so I didn't count her. But I mean, her wings do pop off lol. And I guess if we're being technical, Lockdown has all of his as well but we all know nobody will display him like that and everyone will have the hook hand look.
