I have this transformer since way back, but i don't know what it's name is or the name of minicon that comes with it. Can anyone shed some light? It's a decepticon that transforms into a navy coloured plane with grey missile turrets. It's got a mark on the wing that dates the toy to 1986/87 Hasbro, Takara limited. Standing mode: Transformed: Minicon (plane attachment or gun) Note: this is the ONLY transformer figure i ever had., so i'd really like to know it's name, and what comics or what Tv episodes it appeared in. thanks. :thumb

Has anybody found/made a weapon that Tidalwave can hold? His little weenie guns are not cutting it. :tdown

Just got King Atlas (AWESOME fig! :tfgrin) but noticed that on the inside of his lower legs/upper half of the plane, he has a peg that does not have a corresponding hole! Is this an error or this is how its supposed to be?

Anyone else fix the rediculously long missiles on the reissue seekers? I found them to be fairly easy to fix. I put the missile in the launcher, marked the missile at the point it stuck out of the launcher, then took it out. Using a hobby knife, I carefully cut the missile where marked, and then cut again just below the "warhead" of the missile. Next, take a fine grit sandpaper to the end of the shaft that connects to the launcher and to the base of the warhead. This makes supergluing the two together much easier. Superglue them, let it dry, and, viola, you got a missile that looks authentic! :thumb

Just thinking about the Seeker jets eyes. I was wondering if I am the only Outback collector out there that using tweezers and manicure scissors to cut them so that they are just eyes (no black space) :wtf good part only two more seekers (not counting if one day I get Sunstorm) to worry about this with. I then use the tweezers and a toothpick to put them on. Worst part is that my Starscream collection reissue’s eyes were no longer sticky so I went as fare as buying a little thing of super glue so I could put them on (my cure for unstcky stickers had to do on many reissues, those stickers are never coming off :tflaugh ). My wife always looks at me funny cuz sometimes t…

I just realized that he's make a better King Atlas/Dai Altas than the Universe toy we got. He has most of the right contours, the right helmet and the right altmode... It would at least make a KILLER con exclusive.

I have to say these are pretty sweeeeet!, especially Hound, I have to say imho that hound is the best one so far, and his dark green just looks so cool. I have to say Silverstreak looks better then smokescreen since he is just one colour.. anyway, I have to recommend these 2 toys... :) I would have attached a piccy but when I turned my Digi-camera it Beeped at me and told me to replace the batteries, so they are off for there 13 hour charge period...

Post them goodies.

I know that this topic was done already, I am the one who put it up. I just wanna' see what the new generation of TFans likes. Remember the good old days guys, when there was only about 20 of us? Back when it was possible to keep up with all the new posts. Good times, good times...... Anyway, from g1 to energon, what is your favorite tf toy. Enjoy. :thumb

I stopped by Toys R Us today and picked up the reissues of G1 Hoist and Dirge and I found something odd in the Hoist package. They included the Japanese trading card that was included in the special e-hobby reissue a couple years back. Was this supposed to be there or was it a goof up? Do any of the other reissues have the Japanese cards with them (Dirge didn't)?
