Holy crap,
this will be the most useless competition ever!
Naturally, I love it!!!

I duked it out with my nephew the other day, he used Crumplezone vs my OP, and his rockets always hit better than mine. I'll check if Crumplezone is a sharpshooting winner and report back!

It sounds boring, but the results are surprising sometimes. CybertronHot Shot and Excellion are the same mold, but Excellion shoots WAY farther for some reason.

Some of my figs were not firing at all (swoop) so I went in and stretched the springs back out. Is that a disqualification?

See, I thought most of the G1's and reissues wouldn't even fire, just fall out. I'd count 'em!

I just noticed this thread and had G1 Snarl sitting nearby, so I thought I'd join in.

The launcher fits into the shoulder of Snarl, so in Robot mode it's 11cm from the floor.

Attempt 1 didn't even leave the launcher. Attempt 2 made it 13.2 cm.

All things considered, it'd be more of a threat to himself than any opponent...

Wow, I didn't think they would go far at all. I tried Grimlock, went 14 cm. Then, I tried my Grimlock KO-Prehistory animal, and that thing FLEW!!!
