I did not collect the Classics line so I missed Classics Galvatron. Generations/RTS has been so good I started collecting them. I have a pretty nice TFTM theme going on top of a bookshelf, but Galvatron is clearly MIA. After hearing all the complaints about Classics Galvatron, I am not that interested in tracking him down. That really only leaves me with one option doesnt it - time to customize one. My question for you is, exactly who will be repainted? I can easily get a WFC Megatron and paint him up all purple and grey, but the head will be way off. Help me out!

I think I have just about given up on ever getting any of the later generations/RTS waves. Walmart is flooded with crap, kmart wont put out anything, and online prices are just ridiculous. Has anyone else had any luck finding any new figures?

Less then a month to go untill the release of the DOTM toyline releases. So anyone have a list of figures that are being released in all the classes in wave 1?

I was looking at an online retailer for an item I have been trying to find and came across Ecrater.com has anybody ever delt with them before? Are they pretty good?

I've been giving some thought to how I score figures and decided with DOTM that I'm going to try something new. Since the DOTM reviews will commence shortly (tomorrow hopefully), I wanted to at least give people a head's up, since the system I've used since my contributions started here will change. Why the change now? I have gotten some flack for my previous system. I used a bell curve, much like school grading. A 7 was actually a passing grade, whereas a 6 and below was considered a fail. However, some people would consider a 7 as being average. That being said, the new grading system will work as follows. Robot Mode will have three criteria: Aesthetics, Arti…

I dont know if anyone noticed this yet, but HasbroToyShop has Human Alliance Roadbuster available for preorder.. I don't recall seeing pics of this guy before! I am excited!

Ok guys, I got a big haul coming tomorrow from BBTS: Generations case of Warpath/Wheeljack/Thundercracker Marvel Universe Series 3 Wave 2 Devil Horns Custom Kit iGear Kup heads My question to my fellow TFans is this: How are the Kup and Cliffjumper sets? I'm looking forward to them, but I am wondering some stuff. Are they easy to put together (does Cliff's head need to be unscrewed and screwed back together)?

Hey guys. I was playing around with my ROTF Superion, and i noticed that my Silverbolt has one plain grey plastic hand , and one hand painted black. Is this a common error?

So I got an email from the TFCC the other day telling me pretty much all the new RTS and Generations figures I've been looking for are up for pre-order. My question to you fine folks is: Should I go ahead and pre-order for a gauranteed win or roll the dice on finding these figures in the stores? If it helps, the estimated ship date is within 4 weeks from June 30th which tells me these guys aren't even supposed to be out yet so I'd think those of you still looking have a pretty good chance of finding them.

My freind Chuck who works overnight at the Walmart supercenter in Willow Grove right here in good old PA sent me a picture recently of one of the price tags in the toy department. It said leader Ironhide on it and was priced at $42.88. Now I can remember when a leader class figure was $39.99, so was it absolutely necessary to raise the prices on transformer figures? I mean gas, and food I can see, but transformers, WHY??????
