Ah ok, thanks guys. I just put it in one of the empty spaces on the inside of his leg for storage. It fits in there loosely but its good enough. Thanks for the info guys.

Opened Warbot Defender today.
He is very impressive. Very posable, great paintjob, the die cast melds into the rest of the figure nicely. It doesnt stick out like a sore thumb or cause it to be too heavy one way or the other. His size is perfect to go in with the rest of my Classics/Universe/Generations. Only weird thing is, what the hell is the extra piece for? He does get a small knock for his footprint being a tad small (mainly the heels are non-existant) but its not a big gripe. 9/10

@Sparkless
This came up when I was thinking of names, WMD Prime for your upgrade?
Classics Prime's Matrix Armor = Aerial Combat
WFC Prime's ______ Armor = Ground Combat
Not sure what I should call it....
War Armor
Sigma Armor
Buster Gear/Armor
Leadership Armor
I still can't find pieces to finish up those feet. Also have to find something to fill in the gap in the abdomen area.
Scuba armor!

Nice Hauls, everyone. :)

Could it be? Is it he?

Forgot to mention that I opened my Bioshock Big Daddy figure too.
He is MASSIVE and real heavy. Just like the other Bioshock figures he is oozing with personality, great paint apps and attention to detail. I cant help but wish there was a light inside his helmet tho, this figure is big enough for it and for the price I think it woulda been good. Just like the other figures tho, articulation is almost nil, these guys are solely made for display and thats it. I give it a 7/10 as a display piece but a miserable 4/10 for play factor (even tho its not meant for play I dont think).

Just got a ton of stuff:
Generations Thrust - WAAAAY better then I anticipated. I love this mold now, also the paint is Takara quality. He's like a crimson pearl. 8/10
Generations Drift - Dont care much for the character but the figure is awesome! Very well designed, awesome vehicle mode and an even better robot mode. 8/10
Generations WFC Optimus - This is now my favorite deluxe Optimus figure ever made. 9/10
Generations WFC Bumblebee - Very nice, 7/10
ROTF Knock-Out - Not as great as the Scouts that followed, but also not really bad. Squarely in the middle. 5/10
ROTF Dirt Boss - See above. He gets a small bonus for having an unconventional alternate mode. 5.5/10
ROTF Dead End - A very zombie-ish looking figure with a neat little car mode. 6/10
PE-Rumble & Frenzy - redecos of Shadow Warrior with all the pros and cons. 8/10
Knight Morpher - Ummmmm, okay. He is very well designed but very poorly planned. A lot of loose or too tight joints mar a good looking bot. The trailer is a nice touch tho. 6.5/10
Revoltech Gurren & Lagann - I feel a little jipped because you cant form Gurren Lagann with this release, even tho both bots necessary for the combining are present. Joints are ratchety and classic Revoltech: they suck. You almost feel like your going to break them when you try to move them and often they wont give you the desired pose you were wanting. The blind-packed figure it comes with is garbage. Those things aside, he is pure awesome BECAUSE he is Gurren & Laggan. 7/10
McFarland Halo 2 Master Chief - a nice figure that could use a bit more articulation, but overall a nice representation of the Chief. 7/10
Spawn figures are Spawn figures, made for show - N/A

My Pile of Loot hasnt gotten here yet (congrats Taaron) but my bday was today and my dad got me PCC Bombshock. Didnt really want any of the PCCs but who am I to dislike a gift? :D
He's actually not a bad little guy, I kind of like this idea. Provided the quality of the Scouts stay great then having the option to put weird little limbs on them is nice. Although, the final product leaves something to be desired. Gestalt mode is harder then hell to keep standing, plus he's not exactly articulate so if you want any other poses then "standing there" your out of luck.
And I like Bombshock with his gestalt chest/head out, he looks bizarre but awesome.

Clear boxes are sexy

Who's the blue guy on the left?
Darkmount / Staxus
wtf!? Whered you find those?!

So basically, a friend of my father's father has moved in with his son and they are giving away all the stuff in the house so they can sell it. While perusing the attic, I caught the gleam of two red eyes. After doing some Spider-Man moves to get over to it, I found this guy nestled in a box with nothing but his eyes and up peering from it.
Who knows how old this thing is, but its in great shape! I tell ya, they didnt make this thing to come apart. Its made of tin and has little bendy tabs all over it. I had to undo 12 (6 visible on the chest and 6 just beneath them!) just to re-attach his chest gun and fix a wire. He still doesnt work but damn, Im pretty happy with him.
I present the new leader of the Autobots! Tinpath Prime!
Also snagged some great tools and a few barometers.

I just had my Pile of Loot shipped too. How long have you been working on your's?
Not very long, since Warbot Defender was released. The one before this was double the size. I had over a grand in it, this one is about half that, monetarily wise.
she's gonna be pissed :P
She's not gonna be here :tfevil

Slag (yeah I said it) is a much needed revisit of a great character/figure.
As for Monkeywave, he's Greenland.
Your face is Greenland!
sorry, had to go juvenile for a sec
-
Where to begin?
How about the possitives.
The lights sounds and anamatronic mouth plate are very well done.
The hatchet is oversized, but cool.
As a shelf piece, it doesn't look to bad.
The negatives.
the only real transforming parts are in the legs. Its a matter of a couple quick flips and telescoping legs.
the automated spin transformation does not work well at all leaving the figure half transformed.
the design itself suffers from the gimmick as the truck only has rear wheels.
While the legs offer standard articulation the arms bring nothing to the table.
Each arm has only a lever activated(if you can call it that) spring action neither of which serve much of a purpose.
While the figure may be a nice back of the shelf tall display piece, it offers nothing in function or style just unessicary gimmicks.
Again, I got mine in an auction that no one bid on. If I payed the $50 asking price for this, I'd be pissed.
If you want a Animated Prime, I'd recommend the Voyager. It's a decent figure. The Battle Damaged and Cybertron deluxes were OK too I actualy really enjoy the Battle Damaged version.
This "supreme" though is just a giant piece of fail.
-----------------------
The Animated figures I'd recomend are
Autobots
Voyager or the Deluxe Primes
BumbleBee
Samurai Prowl*
Jazz*
Blurr*
Ultra Magnus
Sentinel Prime
Slag
Swoop*
Cybertron Ratchet
Arcee*
Decepticons
Leader Megatron*
Lockdown*
Oil Slick
Black Arachnia
Blitzwing*
Lugnut
Swindle
The ones with a * are the only ones I'd pay full price for, the rest try to find cheap.
Slag (Snarl), are you kidding me?! I love Animated and I think that figure is fail.
You forgot to add Soundwave to the list of Decepticons :mwahaha
-
Already?
Yes, bought at retail in Canada on clearance. Shelfwarmers here.
Nice.
I saw TransFan2 had a Takara Animated SoundBlaster and went over to BBTS and bought myself one. Now I can open my Hasbro one! :yay

Ive never liked Huffer. Comos however :love

Saw that the first wave of Generations (WFC OP, BB, Drift and Thrust) dropped into my pile of loot on BBTS. As soon as Soundwave drops that sucker is shipped!
I also did some digging in my garage and found a few surprises:
Takara cassette reissue (the one with Slugfest, Ratbat, etc).
2x The fanmade Autoscout cassette (Soundwave/Soundblaster boxes)
Device Label USB Ravage
Mighty Muggs Shockwave
The clear exclusive Lieger (Mirage)
Universe dlx Cheetor ?!?!
Universe dlx Smokescreen ?!?! (I had no idea I had those two :D)
Aw. Mine Wave 1 & Wave 3 is still holding preorder. Got me excited for a bit. :P
Nice garage finds. :thumb How do y'like DL USB Ravage?
Hes staying in the box. At least until I someday get my curio cabinet back together for proper displays anyhow. You get that ladder yet?
