TM, you check in here a lot more frequently than I would say most of the members of this forum so don't count yourself short (by that I mean that there's like 300 members but only like ten of us actually check in regularly). As for popularity, that's determined by the masses, not the individuals although like Gomess said, it could just be that we ran in different circles. I don't recall Sixshot being very popular but you may have been running with the crowd that was nuts for him.

With you on this one, ol' boy. For something to pull off six modes, a lot of each form's gonna be sort of..."Yeah, it kind of looks like that, why not?". And a Voyager could pull that off, I think. Or, like, Ultra at most.

I think if you went to a Masterpiece, then you get problems with the fact that at least half the modes look completely half assed. For twenty-thirty bucks, I'm okay with, say, a wolf with jet wings sticking out his back. For seventy or eighty, I'm calling bullshit on that.

Do we all want a awful/horrible attempt at a new mold sixshot toy in the voyager size. just to save a few bucks in our wallets.

Dude. C'mon.

Uh... The only reason I have more posts is because I've been here longer. I'm "the guy that regularly goes missing", ask anyone here.

The last time someone brought up the fact that I had more posts than them, they did it because they thought everyone was picking on them, and I hope Tigermegatron doesn't feel the same. I'm just annoyed by the idea of starting a topic full of questions and then "not having time to respond to every comment".

Right now, you're here just as much as I am, and definitely start more topics. If you really are too busy to discuss something, at least simplify it before you bring it up, y'know? 'Cos you've *still* not actually responded to my point about a realistic sixchanger being essentially impossible, and it being more logical to try a popular triplechanger first. =/

And don't call me "sir"! =p

Which is total bullshit, man, for real. Stop doing that.

Incidentally, at least you aren't 86; The Guy Who Never Shows Up Ever.

Seriously though man, don't try to argue with him about logic. It'll only (eventually) lead to flamewars and, eventually, somebody will get banned, and then I'll have to hear about it all day long on ATT (which is usenet and doesn't have moderation). It's happened a lot and it'll happen again.

Also check your PMs.

Yeah, I'm worried it's already getting a little personal. Tigermegatron, I hope you get something out of these hypothetical threads, I really do, 'cos I'm not entirely sure they're for me. Think we're gonna have to agree to disagree, which I seem to have been doing a lot of lately! =p
