Scale is an illusion. A phantom of the mind! -Ralph Foolish Doctor! Scale is real! And it is the fire in which our collections burn! A 12" Bumblebee does not go with a 3" Megatron! (For example.) |

Or possibly more in scale in alt-mode, since she's meant to be a raptor, and some of those were quite tiny..? Utahraptor was an absolute moose. But that's a comment that the ss86 dinobots are way too damn big, not that she's too small. |

Slash is a lovely little toy, well worth picking up independently of the SS86 figures! One of the best things we got that year.

I've got the Cindersaur version, and it is very neat.
As to scale, Auntie thought that Dinosaurs were machines and people weren't so I'm going to assume she'd gone full Holly with the scale too.

The SS86 dinobots are way too big to go with Slash Nah, it's fine - I picked one of the shelves on the new bookcase, so the gap between shelves is higher than MP Grimlock is tall, so unless he goes for raising up his sword way over his head it is fine. And it is long enough that they can go three at the back and one and the front, with Slash hanging out peering over the edge to figure a way down to the floor... Karl |

I sold mine but I have regretted it ever since. A definite winner.

Dispatch note from Star today. Thought I wasn't expecting anything until I realised it's 86 Frenzy, which I ordered the night that figure went live but it seems Star have only just got him - when ID had him in stock when the preorders went up!

Because Snarl was almost absent from the movie, the line is about movie characters, I've always felt the absolutely funniest thing they could have done was save Snarl for dead last.
And if they had saved Snarl for last, then all this that's going on with swoop would be absolutely hilarious.

It's okay - Swoop'll leak next week, with the official reveal in two weeks' time. Because they're on the ball like that.

Thanks for the reminder about DST, Phil - I would've completely missed that.
But where are the leaks? There's an hour less than usual to get those all important Interwebs clouts! Come on, people!
