I tell you, Hasbro has NOT dissapointed me with their exclusives. From Energon's Towline and Sharkticon...We now have Hardtop (which is badass) and now Armorhide. First, detail reminds me of Huffer and Pipes. Kind of wish he had a mini trailer...but for fun I had him tow Hardtop around...His transformation is unique! totally different direction than anticipated. Could even see this with a delux sized bot. Now his force chip gimick, MASK worthy. Just because I want to make this joke...Armorhide got a nice rack for his chest! Missle rack that is...lol.Works great in both bot and vehicle mode.

With all of the attention and added emphasis on the GF/Cybertron line I thought this would be a much appreciated change. Not that I'm board with it mind you. Today I recieved an Ebay shipment consisting of all four G2 Scouts. Not an official name but I think it fits considering how tiny each one is. The lot consisted of Turbofire, the green pickup, Rapido, the red sports car, Windbreaker, the orange Camaro, and Scram, the blue corvett. Each is in pretty decent shape, with only slight to moderate stickerware, and Rapido's engine/gun looks to have suffered the most ware. For the most part they're complete with Scram being the only exception. Rather than coming with his…

i have recently aquired all the convoys from the various bw's. here are my thoughts: lio convoy- his beast mode reminds me of cheetor, but with more posability. i liked his beast mode right away. transformation was pretty easy both ways (unlike big convoy). now on his shoulders are some pegs to keep them in place in beast mode, but theres nothing for them to go into for robot mode (very well anyways). a part of the lion body slides down to hold the arms in place but it doesnt work very well. thats my biggest beef with him i guess. he doesnt have a great amount of detail to speak of. the lions head over the right shoulder limits mobility of that arm quite a bit. but he…

I just recieved my moc actionmasters from ebay (blaster, jazz, mainframe, and rollout) and come to find the cards are less than the greatest and have been bent and have water damage. Now the eternal question should I remove them?

I don't have any of the WST Transformers, and wanted to collect them all if I can. I need a list of all of them. Are there any rare or chase ones? If so, which ones? Thanks to anyone that can help.

I'll be using a scale of 1 to 10 with 1 being the worst and 10 being the best. I'm doing this completely from memory, so if I forget any toys I have I'll add them later. This will be organized by alphabet within size class, and any input on the toy or review will be appreciated. SCOUT CLASS Armorhide: Hells yeah. I usually judge a TF's "staying power" by how many times I transform them within the first 24 hours I own them. I must've transformed this guy at least 12 times in the car alone. The semi alt-mode kicks, the transformation is simple yet nice, and the bot mode looks slick. Too bad the Planet key gimmick feels somewhat forced. Still, I want to buy like 8 …

I'm usually not to big fan of repaints but I'd sell Megatron to get this one... :thumb

I was wondering if any one has one of these gift sets yet? If you do post here with your opinion of the set. :tflaugh

I've had a real hell of a time having a calm, reasonable discussion about this on newsgroups, so I'll test the waters on this here board. My theory is that anyone who is offered the chance to own either a Binaltech Smokescreen or an Alternator Smokescreen, free of charge, will take the Binaltech. You've got both of these babies out of the box on a table in front of you, hell, they're both revolving slowly and seductively on those velvety turntables with little display cabinet halogen lights aimed at their sexy curves and corners. Which one would you take? Which one would anybody take? See, I think it's just a given truth that the Binaltechs are superior to an a…

So I check the batch of flyers for the coming week. This is straight from the flyers. All prices in Canadian. Not sure if these sales apply to our neighbors to the south. ================== Both starting this Saturday (Nov 5th) Zellers: Buy 1 and get the 2nd one at half price, on all Cybertron figures (2nd figure must be of equal or lesser value). Toys 'R Us: Cybertron Leader class figures @ $50+tax (a saving of $20) Cybertron Supreme class figures @ $65+tax (a saving of $15) ================== What I find interesting is that TRU's prices on Leaders/Supremes are $70/$80 respectively, by those numbers. Zellers normally has Leaders/Supremes for $60…
