>>7509895Pretty much, yeah. Honestly, I was planning on selling most of the bots off or giving them away, but they all grew on me. The G1 Bee is simple, but surprisingly fun and adorable with a chunky quality that's novel for such a small toy. Cyberscream is legit dandy with his fold-out weapons and starcruiser mode, and the Baybee is similarly chunky and fun, and the transitioning transparency/reformatting effect is actually extremely well done and lends him a high-quality feel.
And this awful movie Starscream has become something of a retarded darling in my collection. He's not good at all, but that's why I like him. Plus that same transparent reformatting effect is equally well-done here, and it's weird to see a figure that's so objectively shit actually have such a nice fit and finish.
>>7509921>"I don't care about it, so nobody else should!"I got into Transformers only about 10 years ago, and have never cared for much of the media. To me, the appeal was a robot that repurposes a car into its own body. So when I see a figure that takes a large chunks of its alt mode and hides them away (into an annoying bacpack, no less) to replace them with fake, hidden kibble, it kind of kills a big part of the joy, especially when it's not being done for engineering reasons, but just for cartoon accuracy reasons. In my mind, it's no longer a proper transformer, but instead just a robot and a car that happen to be hinged together at some points.
