I feel about the same here. The only real reason I want to get Blazing Lockdown is for the "chainsaw" to use with the Lockdown figure I already have. After that, it can serve as spare parts if needed. As for the "Samurai Prowl", I need to see pictures of it before I truly make up my mind about it.

Sorry, apparently that's not allowed. You must declare whether it is the bestest figure evar or the end of Transformers as we know it, and you must do so immediately. Do not wait for actual images or facts, or you're not a REAL fan. Speculate, claim it as fact, then, if proven wrong, backpedal. There can be no other way.

Not my style. =|

Not trying to start shit, but that's one of the many problems I see with most of the fandom (I'm not talking about this site. I'm talking about... others) is that when they are not flaming each other/Micheal Bay/Hasbro/etc, claiming everything ruins Transformers FOREVER, or arguing over the multiverse (Actually that HAS happened here, but at least most of the arguments make sense)- Is that this fandom hardly ever gives something time to flesh out details before giving it a chance. Whether it be Beast Modes, Choice of Art Style, or even something like this where the only thing we have to go by is secondhand reports. It's just pure speculation like you said. If someone is proven wrong, they basically cover their asses.

EDIT: How could I forget the Movie Design fiasco?

You know...looking again at a picture of Blurr from SDCC...

Doesn't it almost look like he has a chainsaw, too?

He looks pretty spiffy.

He can join my TF conservation team - although that currently only holds MP Convoy and RM G1 Convoy, in respect to their axes...

We need more good countryside management / agricultural machine TFs!

Sadly his vehicle mode looks a bit plain...

Getting a better look at it...could use more flame. But not too much more.

I'm on the fence about this one.

And here I was under the impression that they were going to fix his hands...

Edit: They also could've kept the silver on his front bumper... I rather liked the silver being there...

How did Swindle get Megatron's old cannon?

Shush now. I was going to use that cannon to bash a certain new tank into Megs.

I believe the Hulk conversion to Megs has already been done. I think it was the same guy who bash 2-pack megs into warpath.

Swing and a miss.

ok, spill the beans. It better not be reverse engineering Galvy into Megs. Generally it's the other way around.

If you don't, i'm just gonna pretend that i was right, and you're saying no to keep it a secret.
