Toys

it's just not my day.........broke bolt on car trying to change serpentine belt and can't get part til next week, and THEN found a Ramjet but he came with 2 right arms!!! Well, forearms to be exact. This sucks. Anyone else have bad luck with Ramjet?

So, Hasbro has announced that this year's Botcon exclusive set will be done using Classics molds. They have stated that there will be 5 'bots included in the boxed set, but you know there will be others available at the convention. Assuming past standards are used for this set, we will most likely see a boxed set with 1 (possibly 2) voyager(s), and 4 (possibly only 3) deluxe(s). Some minor retooling is expected, but mostly repaints. I am willing to bet we will get the remaining seekers between the boxed set and the extra exclusives. Thundercracker (from Starscream mold), and Thrust and Dirge (from the Ramjet mold). Sideswipe and Sunstreaker (from the Hot Rod mold…

RAVAGE & RUMBLE, RATBAT & FRENZY, SWOOP, and SOUNDWAVE. All just like their G1 counterparts. Ebay seller sent this website as proof: http://toyvalley.150m.com/ Not sure if this excites anyone as much as me, but I think it's kinda cool. I can't afford the real ones, so these are gonna complement the collection quite well for my budget. The only problem is that if they are sold as legit G1 toys, someone is gonna get ripped off. AFA apparently will aprove of these toys, they claim they are mearly reissues. Just be wary when purchasing from Hong Kong sellers and ask plenty of questions. If it looks too good to be true, it probably is.

WHY ARE THERE SO MANY GREAT NEW TRANSFORMERS THAT LOOK LIKE SOME BETTER VERSION OF THE OLD ONES BUT MISTAKENLY ARE NAMED WITH THE ID'S OF OTHER ONES? EXAMPLES: ARMADA TF'S: JETFIRE SHOULD BE SKYLINX SMOKESCREEN SHOULD BE HUFFER SILVERBOLT (BLURR) SHOULD BE TAILGATE THRUST SHOULD BE NEEDLENOSE DEMOLISHER (IRONHIDE) SHOULD BE QUAKE CYCLONUS (SANDSTORM) SHOULD BE SPINISTER ENERGON TF'S: HOTSHOT SHOULD BE BUMBLEBEE PROWL (RED alert) SHOULD BE MIRAGE TOWLINE SHOULD BE SKIDS CRUELLOCK SHOULD BE OVERKILL DIVEBOMB SHOULD BE BUZZSAW AND THE LIST GOES ON...

Ok I've had a looke at the Seibertron image gallery of the Revoltech Prime, and while I admit it has some nice styling elements, what is the point of him(?!) when we have THS02 available which moves the same and is (I'm guessing here) the same size and poseability? I'm baffled.

I am totally up to scratch in the Classics toys and have everything apart from the lame ass Devastator Giftset, I really want some news on the next and possibly final line but nothing is forthcoming at the moment, I know the movie is coming out but this line makes me feel like I've finally got that Nostalgic redux I was after, I really want Trailbreaker, Shockwave, (Megatron repaint possibly) Jazz Blaster and Some Casettes!!!!! Anyone know anything????

Wow this topic sounds like a title for an unheard of deluxe transformer from classics but it is not. Night Scream is a dragon-former comes from the minicon set called clear skies. Anyhow, minicon nightscream is the best I have ever seen as far as mincons go. Best articulation and definatly best bot mode yet. And the alt mode is amazing! It is incredible how a transformer can be if the Hastak design team just put in a little effort. This is a nice toy and looks good sitting with the dinobots team. Now as far as the other figures? Let's but it this way, nightscream will be the most expensive (outside of botcon) minicon you will ever buy because the the other two…

so i drop by wally's and i see all the new minicon teams. i left the isle minus the clear skies team. a quick review of them is... decent. from the pred team, the hawk is the best, the others just have good alt modes. the dirty squad i like as a whole, with oil slick being the stand out for his team. though it's not official, i think that dirk rocket is much better with his legs turned around for bot mode (wheels facing front). i'd show pics, but dont have a workin cam. anyway, there ya go and happy huntin folks!

I was buzzing around Justitoys looking for news on any new dinobots. Nothing except that they said that they have fake WST Dinobots on the market. I thought it was kinda ironic that KO's can have KO's but at least they said they will release a second run of Flamethrower (Slag) with a 2007 calendar. Details are here. I think it's time for Jungle Warfare (Sludge). http://www.justitoys.hk/proof.htm

Does anyone have pictures of the fan made "blaster" mode of Energon Shockblast/ Superlink Laserwave?
