Toys

Anybody remember how much G1s actually cost back in the day? I'm pretty sure they were comparable to today's TF prices. If I remember, Mini-Autobots were $3.99, Autobot cars were $10-12, the jets were around $15, Soundwave and Megatron were about $20 and Prime was $25-30. Been awhile though. I did have a box for Silverbolt up in the attic. He came from KMart and was originally $11.99. Anyplace on the net that has a price listing for the old toys? Just curious...

Here's some pics of my Uni. Swerve I bought today from Walmart... He is ok.

So last Friday, I finally got my TRU Nemesis Prime at my local target. Now you must understand that this is a HUGE deal because I am one of those “TRUKK not MUNKYâ€? guys. I am not a fan of beast transformers (dinobots and insecticons aside :P) So anyway, I get this guy cause A: I’m a sucker for Primes and B: he looked F’n awesome in his packaging. Now I was originally going to post this topic as a review because I love this toy but since I’ve had him for 3 days and have never transformed him, I thought it best just to tell you how awesome his Robot Mode is. I tried to place him in the section of my cabinet that contains my many other primes, but he jus…

The following Autobots get "powered up" in the show: Hot Shot Ironhide Jetfire Cliffjumper Landmine What I don't get is why Hasbro is releasing only two of them with the same name with the word "Energon" in front of it, but changing the name of the other three Landmine turns into Landquake Cliffjumper turns into Beachcomber Jetfire turns into Overcast Why not release these other repaints under the same naming format that they are with Hot Shot and Ironhide, and just call it Energon Jetfire, or Energon Cliffjumper. Not to mention, I don't even think that Bulkhead gets powered up in the show, nor does Omega Supreme. Optimus I can see getting a …

Every time I go to Meijer all I see is Alternator wave 1. No wave 2 or 3. Do you have this problem in your area?

I was at my old place today to try to get my stuff...and I relize one of my boxes is missing...The one wiht scourge, metroplex and a ton of my g1s. I know the new room mate has it...he even has my 20th prime. But he is this big black guy who is all attitude and was ready to kill me right then and there. I was shaking with adrenilin ready to confront him...but then I reaiized that I was ready to have bodily harm for toys...I'm sitting here now looking at my room, surrounded by this stuff...and I'm asking myself is it worth it? I think I'm done. Mad Hammer, Behold Galvatronl, any of you MD people...if you want, I think I'm putting it all up for sale.

Has anybody ever noticed this. Though Hasbro usually makes its molds directly from the Takara ones, there are some toys that only make the American market (i.e. Energon Grimlock and Swoop) and some that only make the Japanese Market (i.e. the plastic model Scourge Convoy version of the plastic model Grand Convoy.) Some figures that come to mind that are exclusive to the American market are: Energon Grimlock and Swoop Energon Strongarm Offshoot Beachcomber Landquake Quickstrike Sixshot Dreadwing Omega Sentinal Some of the RiD Spychangers The RiD Autobot Three pack And one Japanese exclusive was Brave Maximus, the RiD version of Fort. Max. Any oth…

Does anybody know when/"IF" Europe will get new alternators? there are still hundreds of smokescreens and hounds here, that i fear that it will stay with this ow and make a difference between europe and that geografically misplaced english speaking island next to it

Looking at my alts again and Sideswipes head really started to bug me, i dont like the mold anyway as think it looks fat but it was the head that annoyed me. It just seems `big` and very simple, all the others are far more styled and much better looking. Anyone else think the same?

I am going to get this pack and I was wondering if anyone knew how big these two are. I suspect they are about deluxe size, but I am not sure.
