Well, it looks like we're FINALLY going to get a Machine Wars story.


Only took fifteen years.

Don't feel bad. He's really pretty horrible. I almost picked one up at OTFCC years ago after our recurring PM plotting regarding the guy (emoticon), but after seeing him in person he's just so horrible I just couldn't pull the trigger. :lol

Though color me interested at the potential for MW based repaints. That could have potential.

GS is right. Back in the day, my friend got the MW Prime, and I was tempted to get one too, because he had also gotten G2 Laser Rod Prime not long before, and I was thinking "He's newer than Laser Prime, so yeah! He's bound to be as posable and fun!" Unfortunately, he just sucked. He had less articulation than Superbase Armada Prime, if you can believe it. In fact, just about every single one of the larger non-basic MW toys blew monkey balls. Starscream was only spared because he looked cool. The only thing good about Machine Wars Prime, was this logo.

Beyond that, I can't see any of these being a downgrade. However, I'm CERTAIN that a lot of us had ideas in our head for what would have been an awesome Machine Wars story that's now sadly nullified.

Well, the only real reason I want him is because I have all the other Machine Wars toys. The fact that he's awful is why I haven't pursued him harder than I have :P

Yea, no I dont have to go to KB to....get....Machine...Wars....****!

So many posabilities....but it wouldnt hurt my feelings if they leave out Prime in this set and go with Sandstorm and Megaplex.

Hubcap = bright yellow RTS Grapple repaint/remold
Hoist = black repaint of RTS Grapple
Soundwave = Cybertron CD Red Alert (as suggested by Pal)
Mirage = Classics Mirage
Prowl = Classics Mirage
Sandstorm = HFTD Tomahawk
Skywarp = white Classics seeker
Thundercracker = military green repaint of Classics seeker
Starscream = classics Jetfire repaint
Megaplex = HFTD Terradive

Well, I thought about that but they did Skyfall. Minus the orange/red, could they make him look different enough in jet mode
