Toys

So there were a few very late RiD releases I think when Armada started, and the last few molds of Armada that never got recolored did get recolors in Energon and Universe. I've heard Energon will pretty much officially end in Spring 05 with Cybertron launching in summer. Think there'll be any Energon carryovers to Cybertron (or worse, Universe?)

To me, it's Ironhide. Although he is not my most favourite character in G1, but his toy don't bear a real robot head. I would really thanks Has/Tak alot if they can grant Ironhide a head in the BT/Alt line.

These new combiners are some of the best Transformers ever made, G1 or otherwise. I've gone crazy buying different parts!! After picking up the Superlink Superion and Bruticus gift sets, I've purchased several parts for the US Constructicon Maximus. Check out these pics of Steamhammer combined with four Sledge figures - this guy could wipe the floor with the old Devastator!! Constructicon Maximus - Ultimate Form!!

Prototype AM Half Track (Unproduced) Landmine's Trailer Thoughts?

I picked up E Storm Jet today over at Target's deluxe sale, already have the SL Superion set but I really like the colors used on Storm Jet more (plus looks more show accurate). Well, I had heard that the knees and legs were misassembled with the pegs on the upper legs assembled on the outside rather than facing in and the knees bending forwards rather than back. Well I opened him up and SUPRISE! the pegs were properly inward on the legs but....the left knee only bent inward while the right knee was correctly assembled! So close to a perfect Storm Jet yet oh so far... :tfmad Oh and btw in case anyone was wondering, quality wise, Storm Jet does seem a tad more stable …

Have you guys/gals ever realyl thougth about this... Many trucks and SUV's will NEVER be made because they won't fit into the boxes and have a small dimension enough to get made. Hasbro already made the boxes a bit smaller with the new style. And many of these Hummers, SuperDuties and whatnot would never fit in those boxes if they were truly 1:24th scale.It seems obvious that many of these will never get made, isn't it just a drag? I really want some larger vehicles like Trucks and SUV's and such, but seriously I don't think Hasbro is gonna even bother with it and it's gonna be an almost straight car line with a few, very few, SUV's thrown in here and there. Vans …

At Zeller's They're selling Energon Basic figures for 9.97 + Tax. I got Energon Offshoot for almost nothing considering how inflated Zeller's prices are. :tfgrin

Anyone know if there exist any KOs of the original seven (ex-Microchange) minibots?

Yeah, I was at Kb's the other day and saw an Energon Cyclonus and Demolisher(both Armada repaint). They looked kinda cool, but was there really any reason for them to be re-released and why did it take so long. Shouldn't that had been done a while back. One more question. I read somewhere that energon Cyclonus and Snowcat will powerlink in the show. Is that true and will we see new designs of them.
