Since every time this topic surfaces, we get a lot or arguing, let's see if we can discuus the matter without flaming or saying any annoing comments. If you want to express your opinion you are welcome to do so but no flaming is allowed.

Dear God, it's rant time I'm afraid... June 2nd, England, Wolverhampton city centre - after cleaning up with a GW Stormtrooper Sergeant at the local modelling club's monthly painting competition, I head into town to hunt for Movie figures with my last £15 burning an Autobot symbol-shaped hole in my already ragged jean pocket. First I hit Argos [i don't know if the American forum users know what an 'Argos' is, so I'll elucidate further: 'Argos', named for some inexplicable reason after the Greek mythical figure, errm, Argos the ship-builder, is a nationwide chain of stores where all the products have to be ordered from a catalogue colloquially known as 'The Laminat…

As many of us realized from day 1 the TF:Prime character Knockout is essentially a Decepticon version of G1 Tracks, or G1 Sunstreaker. If the Prime version of Knockout were to be added to G1 continuity (anybody arguing that there was already a micromaster Knockout, I know this already, and for the sake of both this topis and disliking a vast majority of "mini's", I'm ignoring they ever existed) as a repaint of an existing mold, which would you rather see used, Turbo Tracks, or Sunstreaker? Is there another classics mold you feel would work better? Keep in mind this is also if Hasbro decided to put this out without ever considering creating a new mold, so just a repaint, m…

anybody remember when BW was on, and in the 2nd season 3 parter, credit was given to Ben Yee as G1 consultant. I know the writers talked with him on Alt Toys Transformers for info. and then this past summer Ben was asked by Hasbro to write the convention comic. So why does he get picked by the big H to write a comic? Im sure there are many of us who are very knowledgeable in TF mythos whether in G1 comic or toon, that Hasbro can pick either one of us.

Besides Toyota Estima for Ironhide, I would like to see a red Peugeot 206 or 206cc for the Alternator CliffJumper, as the car size is small enough to resemble the cliffjumber ... or even our Bumblebee. I know some country in Europe even employ the Peugeot 206 as Fire Engine ... may someone tell me which country is it ? http://www.peugeot.co.jp/cars/showroom/206/xt-pre/

I was born in 1980 and got transformers as soon as I saw them around 85. I would be allowed to get one every time we went to Toys'R'Us, which was an hour and a half away, so not very often. My first was SkyWarp. Loved it all the way to the movie, and then found girls and forgot about transformers. Fast forward 15 years or so to when the commemorative series hit the shelves. My mother ,out of the blue, buys me a new SkyWarp. I know she had no clue she had got me the same transformer way back then. I put it up and forget about it till this year. I got it out and put the stickers on it, then bought season 1, 2, the movie, and seasons 3 and 4 of the animation. Now I am fully …

According to a guy at Toys'R'Us, There is a figure in Energon that looks like Alt Sideswipe. Also Energon is really pronounced -Ener gone-. I found this slightly humourous and kinda stupid of the guy. Considering that he was wrong. (To the best of my knowledge)

This are very relaxed boards, only two posters from ADC usually post here besides myself. Anyway, why are you guys so slow, and how come it took almost a whole month to get a possible flame war? Now I dont like flame wars but everyone knows they are interesting. And why is it you guys will make other threads huge, but some topics you never reply to, such as my OTFCC exclusive idea topic, no one posted and I had to post to bring it back again. Anywho just asking.

Here we are days, literally hours away from the film many of us have been waiting almost 20 years for and I have to ask the question. Could a hiatus for the franchise help or hurt the brand. I know that after the first run of G1 the brand went a little dormant, only to be ressurected by Beats Wars. then came the return to vehicles with RID then followed by the A/E/C trilogy. With the movie, the new animated series, and the already announced sequel a few years away do you think the brand could fizzle out and lose the interest of the public it is geared towards? I know we are all fans but am I the only one on here who sometimes gets tired and need a break, not just fro…

So i have always wondered - I know it has been in dispute whether Kup, HotRod, Blurr, etc were Futuristic cars or Cybertronian (i always assumed future-earth cause in MTMTE WJ JZ & BB seemed not to have wheels at all but hovered...but i digress) Anyway heres my Question, as much as i like Kup and all : WHAT THE HELL GOOD WAS HE AS A PICK-UP TRUCK?????? Whether hes on Cybertron or Earth he would still have needed a Tail-Gate to keep things from falling out the back. Just Curious Hunter
