Toys

I said I would put up some pics of Sandbot for and the bubble blower. Added a few other goodies for fun. Enjoy!

Don't you all just hate that people are signing onto these boards to try and sell off their scalped sets of these Target exclusives (as just one example)? They sign up, make one post that they bought these sets before they were marked down (yes, we can already smell the bullshit) and that they're now on Ebay for a great price. 4 times the price you pay for something is NOT a great price. To all you scalpers that think we can't see what you're trying to do, we didn't come down with the last shower. I hope you all have no luck selling these figures and they end up as clutter in your scalper item-ridden houses.

Asking for advice here... (it doesn't have to be a TF, but :shrug)

I dont know about anyone else, but i am furious !!!!!! not so much that has.tak is cancelling one of the greatest toy lines ever!!!!! but that they put forth zero effort to keep it alive!!!!! I believe we can stop hasbro and takara if we show our support of the line, leave a post and say what you want about it, good or bad. I personally believe this line was doing 100 times better than any other line without a tv show pushing it forward. I am not saying that a "cartoon " is what was needed, possibly a CGI or anime, to appeal to the older crowd that buys Alternators. it wasnt ever supposed to be for kids? was it? A friend of mine bought his nephew an alt optim…

Except for Alternators these lines just keep on getting worse and worse. One reason I'm so damn angry is because I bought into the "Armada propaganda" that had plagued each and every board in 2002. I thought Armada was the grail and boy was I wrong. When the line ended I looked over my collection and literally began smashing the damn figures and then I built up an army a beautiful army of g1 warriors!!The best damn transformers ever!! I'm even about to go as far as to say that it's a disgrace that ARMADA, RID, AND ENERGON have the name Transformers in their title. Get rid of it and stoping insulting the names of past g1 figures with these new figures i.e. Mirage,Rodimus …

Let's say that somehow in some way you became head of the transformers department at hasbro(and like many of us wish that we can do) and had a say in the decisions on the figures design. What would you do? Me I would fire everybody there and hire everybody on here to make the decisions on figure design, and hire all the customizers on this board to design the toys.

The poll is that way just so peeps can say which version of a model they like. Well, here it is, who is the greatest?

What would you consider the "holy grail" of TFers? Not what is your favorite, but one of the most difficult to find, highly prized, expensive, rare to find TFers?? I have seen the "gold" MP Prime... only a few made and I believe goes for $3,000 or so. It would probably be in the top 10 or so. But whether it's an old G1 or whatever series.. japaneese series.. or otherwise.. what would you consider THE Holy Grail???

I hope the alternators line gets bigger and bigger, and that they stay true to the roots! Alternators in popular factory colors. This could be good marketing for the car manufacturers, and a good way to get more adults into the hobby. Who wouldnt want to see their own car as a Transformer? And (this is a slight rant/ramble, but...) any car company who isnt begging Takara to make their products into a TF, or any toy for that matter is a heap of braindead buffoons. What better way to get your car inbedded in a kid's (read future buyer's) head so deeply? People forget nauseating jingles and stupid commercials and mission statements, but if they voluntarily buy a scaled…

where are you guyz finding jetfire??? I have not seen it at any of the local stores yet. And living in the Hampton Roads of VA there are like 4 Targets; 10 Walmarts and 3 toys r uses all within 45mins. NOTHING. searches online show it doesn't show up on Target, Walart or ToysRus Either.
