We all know Sideswipe became Deadend, and Optimus became Motormaster, and I presume Mirage became Dragstrip, but what about the other 2?

I am looking for help in finding a series of a Japanese robot anime series that ran in the mid 1970's. I guess this would fall under the Mecha.... The series was about a scientist who built a robot. The scientist dies & his nephew took over the lab. The robot was used to fight against other evil robots. What I think is unique is that in order to operate the robot the human needed to jump into a small flying capsule & it would insert into the crown or top of the head of the robot. I don't remember the name of the robot or series name. The robot was white,black,& red. In order to fly it would run catch speed jump into the air & a missle guided type jet p…

I just recieved my animated Swindle after ordering from Hasbro 2 WEEKS AGO!!!!!!! Its a great figure. BUT the QC with this particular lot was horrible. Stress marks all over it broken tabs the left arm FELL OFF!!! The Chest plate does not want to stay in place. Its just Horrid. I dont know if Hasbro will replace it. All I know is there area I live in, is really REALLY slow to get new stuff so I dont want to have to send it in unless I know for a fact I can replace it.

I just got done watching "Dark Awakening." During the big space battle toward the end, a bunch of Autobot spacecraft get blown away... including one who looks suspiciously like Powerglide! So does Powerglide bite the big one in this episode, or is it just an animation error? Does he appear in any season 3 episodes after this one?

think about it we where going to get a ss reissue and it got scrapped....im guessing thats why only rodimus and dirge where in this series,it doesnt make sense to only have 2 reissues. and now this with the alt being scrapped....just wondering does someone have it out for ss

The official street date for TF: Animated was June 22nd. Not that you could really notice, of course. Stocking at the major box stores was sporatic at best. There are probably stores that STILL are not on board with stocking Animated figures. Only recently have I seen any kind of uniform stocking arrangements. Target, for instance, dedicated an end cap display yet only 20% of stores I visited used the promotion. At that, it was shared with the shelfwarmer known as Deep Space Starscream. So imagine my disgust today when I visited my local Target and found not one end cap... but THREE end caps advertising the new Star Wars Legacy line!! Then I walked down the act…

Does anyone know if Takara has a website? I would like to get ahold of them if I can. So if anyone knows if they have a website where you can email them let me know. Thanks Guys. :usa

Does TF Con have a 3rd party TF live panel? I remember one TF fan convention that takes place in the summer. has a huge 3rd party TF live panel. with a whole bunch of stuff on display via test shots,proto types,projector pics,art pics,CGI rederings,etc... Random side note: I had to edit this thread & seperate the words TF Con into two words because the filter made it read something else.
