I haven't seen these around here yet: Have to admit, they look kinda weak from a collector's point of view. I liked the 07 Movie toys from BK, and the McD's Animated line, but these, not so sure. Prime looks pretty cool, actually, and Devastator might be fun. Bumblebee looks like a nice alt mode, and Megatron's might be decent too before he "rises". But Soundwave looks nothing like his Deluxe toy (who's to say what he looks like in the movie, tho), the flip-out Fallen is just cheap, and it's hard to tell what the Ravage toy does/is. All that said, I'll prob get them all eventually. Toys are toys, right?

lol, check out the laser colors I never noticed that before :tflaugh so WHO SHOT PRIME???!??!? cuz you know Megatron can't aim for sh*t

So does anyone know if they will be selling them without purchasing anything? Will it be released when the DVD comes out and is limited 10 toys to a store? Anyone knows whats the deal on getting a hold of these toys?

My take on transformers having gender was always this. If you take the spark theory of transformer life, than transformers aren’t really robots. More like energy beings hitting each other with robots. So the question isn’t “do robots have sex.â€� Its “do cybertronian energy beings have sexâ€�. I’d say not what we’d call sex, but that does not mean that they do not practice a form of “sexualâ€� reproduction. This seems likely given that Cybertronians seem to have genders. The Female/Male difference in Cybertronians is in the polarity of their spark. As for the structural similarity to human females, that’s no harder to explain than why robots from …

Hi everyone complains about armada being bad but I loved armada personly with all the mini cons and stuff. I bought a g1 dvd and thought this is the great G1? And then everyone was complanig about OP not being very poseible. I bought Powermaster OP with Apex from G1 and I thought the same thing you guys thought about Armada OP.

Lets face it, we're in this for the robots, otherwise we'd buy Hot Wheels or something like that. Still, some figures, for some reasons are getting left in alt mode. Maybe it's cause the bot sucks, maybe cause it's the alt is just awsome. Example, Cybertron Overdrive stays in alt cause thats an awesome car, but the bot sucks, same for Armada Sideways. On that same note though, figures like my city bots(outside of Omega and Fort Max) at the moment are in base not bot mode cause I love the interaction that offers with the smaller bots. Dinobots are another type of figure who realy just have no reason to hang around as robots. Motorcyles are in alt if I have a Jo…

There are examples in other animes of superpowerful robots that were made by organic mortals and have infinite powerlevels(like Genesic GaoGaiGar and Ideon). now Primus is suppose to be a god, he's the biggest robot in cartoon history, and he can't even close a freaking blackhole without using a fancy gun. even his tech specs list him as relatively weak with a mere 10 rating for his firepower and a "?" for his strength(which IMHO, seems to indicate that his strength is dependent on his physical body as opposed to being infinite). at least they gave him an infinite rating for his intelligence, which makes him all-knowing. are the japanese just reluctant about the idea of a…

So which TF had the worst death? And by worst I mean the most a) pointless b) chock full of pathetic weakness or c) made the least sense within the context of the story and/or character.

in the ACE universe, only three G1 characters get homages in all three series: Optimus Prime, Megatron, and Starscream. since the autobots only have one iconic character while the cons have two, what if Starscream and Megatron were fused into a single character? they could call him Megascream and make him a triple-changer that transforms into both a jet and a tank. come to think of it, C-Megatron is already half-way there. all hasTak would have to do is remold the car-mode's wheel-sections into treads , replace the force-chip missile-launcher with a tank turrant(perferably one that can disconnect and become an arm cannon), and paint the whole toy in grey, red, blue, and b…

How's his toy gonna be? As two different mold, One voyager, another deluxe? Or if the toy's a mixed one, say, kinda like Blitzwing's facial spinning feature, what would you expect from Shockwave's facial feature? Perhaps a button behind his head to retract Longarm's 'scuba mask' thingy into Shockwave's antennas and pull Longarm's face downward to reveal Shockwave's single optic? Damn, I keep rewatching Autoboot Camp just for the last moment of that episode. Speaking of hype and speculations, Shockwave's the new Blitzwing. Any other thoughts?
