Other toys you count as Classics?

[TimDH]

For me classics is brilliant when it comes to the deluxe and voyager molds, but leaves a lot desired in the filler, like the repaints from Energon.

Still, there are for me some other toys which I think fit in nicely with Classics, having the right aesthetic, build quality, design quality and je ne sais quoi.

Top of my list is Cybertron Deluxe Unicron, which I think looks great alongside the other classics, but if you don't like the idea of a normal size unicron, you could pretend it's a classics Bludgeon or something.

Cybertron Downshift is also close to how I'd want to see a Classics Wheeljack, although in his case it's lacking something - detail, articulation or something.

The new Primal/Megatron they did at the end of Cybertron also strikes me as being good candidates for Classics-Beast Wars.

Any other suggestions?

I've got Energon Downshift as my Classics Wheeljack and I've added Titanium Soundwave and Scourge as well.

I was really disappointed with the quality of Titanium 6" line, I was hoping they would complement Classics nicely but everyone I've seen has been rubbish. The only one that I was happy with the design of was WW Prime, and that had other issues (floppiness for example). Believe me I would have bought Soundwave in a second if he'd been remotely half decent. As it is I might get the MP3 version as my 'classics' soundwave.

I just heard today on TFWIRE that they may have new 6" tits of Cosmos, Arcee and 'WW Brawl' which to me is a tragedy, I would have much rather seen the first 2 in the classics line, even if that meant waiting until the dust had settled from the movie.

Actually I'm very happy with Titanium Rodimus Prime and WW Optimus Prime. I haven't got many of the others mainly cos they're based on designs I don't like so much or I don't care that much for the character (I've never really been much a fan of Soundwave to be honest).

Anyways Classics substitutions... I use Energon/Superlink Bulkhead/Sprung as Springer and Energon Arcee as... Arcee. That's pretty much it so far, until I get some new tools and paints and have a go at the whole kitbashing malarkey.
