That haul had to have been at least one paycheck's worth.
Recently got Cyb Optimus. Don't like his mouth, I constantly have his faceplate put up. :p He just doesn't look right with it down.
And I keep the head-fins back unless he's got Leo Breaker connected.
Leo Convoy!
I also recently watched a Beast Wars Neo movie. You know, the one where Galvatron brings MazinZarak to their world, and then the Maximals bring Optimus Primal for help?
Hmm.
Also found an old CD-RW I made back in my TV-recording-to-computer days of the Beast Wars Episode: Code of Hero. The one where Dinobot p0wnz everyone. Yeah. That one.

Picked up Alternators Prowl, My First alternators purchase. Nice toy. I only Have one problem with it.
The doors. They're so easy to pop off while transforming but to hard to put back into place, and it gets fustrating when you get them back on only to pop off 3 seconds later.

That sounds like my major complaint with Cybertron Crosswise. His transformation is so complex, so convoluted that it is near impossible to get it without popping off parts the first few dozen attempts. stressed

Talon TDS That sounds like my major complaint with Cybertron Crosswise. His transformation is so complex, so convoluted that it is near impossible to get it without popping off parts the first few dozen attempts. stressed Agreed. He could be a friggin' Alternator. Why did they make him so complex anyway? but at the same time... why can't I put him down? XD

Because his mold is rather interesting, and the fact that his unlockable cyber-key feature is not only both useable in robot and vehicular modes, but it doesn't come off as being cheesy. The missile racks look nice, and are small enough to be discreet.
Take Undermine. The blade that pops out of his head is not usable really in beast mode, and limited use in robot mode. Even the Leader class has trouble coming up with a decent key feature. I have Galvatron (Sooooooo glad I waited for the repaint) and Optimus. Optimus' unlocking weapons are only really good in his super mode, and even then there is limited use to them. Galvie's booster rockets are frankly lame. The unlocking of his weapon bays are alright, but ugh.

XD because as much as we might complain, deep down we LOVE the complexity more then simplicity.and is it me or would a lightbar and a new head make Crosswise a perfect G1 Prowl upgrade?

Doors are not my problem with him . . . the rear fenders are. Those blasted things just seem to decide "now is the worst possible time to pop off . . . GOODBYE!" At which point, it begin to curse under my breath. stressed

What gets me is that these things are mass produced so the loose doors and such are present in some way on every figure of that type produced. rofl

You don't have Crosswise yet?
He's all over around here.. every time I check to see if Downshift is there yet, I see 5 or 6 Crosswise's that haven't been sold yet.

Hasn't been released. In fact, very few of the Cybertron line has... I don't think it's been all that well recieved over here, by the looks of things. confused
