>>7898498You are so much fun, I could just eat you up, you know that.
I especially love the part about how saying your point is bad, and your illustration to demonstrate the bad point you made is actually a better example to support my point makes you repeat your same point again.
With the same insults, even.
So let me walk you through it all again.
Can they make a Cliffjumper that doesn't partsform? Yes, they have done it before, so clearly they could do it again if they wanted to.
Your shitty legion looking motherfucker in the image looks like SHIT. The proportions are terrible and it is ugly. You can't post an image and say "Look how easy this transformation is, even this shitty legion can do it" when it fucking can't. It can't use that transformation scheme and become a good looking robot; OTHER transformers may be able to do it, but the one you posted can't. It demonstrates that if you don't care how bad things look, the transformation works, and you can't say "just imagine this, but completely different" and think it makes sense. As mentioned above, clearly they could easily make him without the partsforming, so obviously they did it intentionally. The question is why.
It's not laziness. It's not like old partsforming where it was Seeker wings or Ironhide being a giant base and a windshield on a sitck figure, it's perfectly integrated into both is modes and functions as a shield in robot mode, and can be a backpack. It's clearly a design conceit for the Siege Gimmick to facilitate weaponizers and other features.
I have to ask, are you one of the same guys who lumped massive shit on the headmasters back in Power of the Primes and whined incessantly about them being partsforming. I'm trying to tell if this behavior is pathological or sudden onset.
