My review of Leader Class Earthrise Optimus Prime. Is it REALLY "Leader Class" ?

Kato reminded me of this thread. I have tons to add but I'll start with this one.

I haven't posted much on here but here's my review for Siege Spinister along with his Targetmaster buddies!

My thoughts on the NewAge Toys Coneheads

Every day is "Throwback Thursday" when you're a G1 Collector. Check out my review of G1 Metroplex who benefited from my very first Toyhax purchase in 2012.

The "No one can see my collection" is a kinda sad option.

Greatly improve the looks of your Siege Ratchet with this decal set from Toyhax.

My unboxing and review of Fans hobby Lightning Eagle is up! Fans Hobby as usual doesn't disappoint. I also like the preview of Machine Eagle (Machine Wars Optimus Prime) in the instructions. Can't for that to come out.

My review of Civil Warrior's CW-01 General Grant aka Masterpiece War Within Optimus Prime. I do have some QC issues with this figure. This is a new 3P company and I would very much like to give them a chance at their after sales support. I hope it will be a positive outcome. Overall I am generally pleased with the figure design.

Thanks! I prefer the scale and robot mode look of Siege, but the vehicle mode of CW. Can't really go wrong with either IMO.

It is close, but I think the Combiner Wars one is a better toy because it is bigger and the alt mode is more functional as a car carrier.

lol my thoughts exactly

If this is alright to post, I've been making these Papercraft printable figures that you can print, cut, and glue for yourself. Check it out if you want. https://papercybertronian.blogspot.com/

Despite my issues with both Siege and Earthrise i feel as generations lines they are on the right track. Focusing on the figures rather than forcing a gimmick like they did in Prime Wars. However every other leg of Hasbro has been super weak Cyberverse and Netflix for example are either poorly made like in cyberverse and Netflix is just a bunch of lazy repaints. Masterpiece has been super hit or miss as of late by forcing super toon accuracy on the robot mode. Overall Studio series the best line as it only has a few duds over it's huge run as a line.

I'm all in for Beast Wars.

Greetings Transformers Fans! We hope you are safe and well during the pandemic. By now we have all been at home for weeks and are finding all kinds of ways to pass the time. Unfortunately, for a lot of Transformers fans one of their favorite things, collecting, has been impacted the most. To help light our darkest hour, Tformers, The Rejecticons, BigBadToyStore, Stan Bush, and others are hosting a 5 Day special event running April 27th thru May 1st to entertain and engage Transformers fans who for various reasons have been isolated and cannot afford to collect Transformers.

Thanks to TFORMERS.com for keeping us entertained during the isolation. #TransFormAThome

Pretty sure I still owe Columbia House a few bucks. Well....them and the Bookmobile

Kinda odd, kinda cool! I was sent a custom to review. It began life as Transformers Siege Swindler (who I detest) BUT imagine a crossover with Back to the Future with the car becoming the Delorean and the robot? you guess it, enter Marty McTime, tech spec card and all!

Luckily, not much at all except toy hunting. So, mostly purchased online. Somethings were delayed from China, obviously. Other than that it's business as usual

I open a giveaway from Nathan Simmons and N-Put and I talk about some upcoming bots

I calculate that you will enjoy my Review of the Generation One Technobots.

I just posted this Takara D-98 Sixshot for sale for only $75 + $15 shipping. https://forums.toynewsi.com/classifieds/item/19-takara-japan-transformers-g1-d-98-six-shot-sixshot-reissue-mib-complete/

I never got the Henkei version, but I really do love the one that came in the TRU 2-pack with the good version of Evasion Mode Prime. I think the chrome bits are really sharp, and he generally just looks like an awesome (and very Japanese) take on Prime. He's the only Classics figure I still display.

I have been collecting since 1984, transformers what the first thing I ever truly collected. I've cut down considerably on what I collect now, but Transformers were my first passion. I had to have every one in that 85 catalogue. I drove all over the place hunting them down, with my best friend. We're still friends, and I still have them all, all complete, 98% 9f them I still have the boxes. I packed them and their accessories in foam rubber to hold and protect them, decades later, they are my favorite thing, after my family. I also have become very adept at repairing them, and other toys. You never have to stop loving anything... unless it's killing you.

I have noticed it more on the plastic. The plastic feels more brittle and is more prone to stress marks. I first noticed it with the Transformers Prime line and confirmed it with Beast Hunters Optimus Prime voyager figure; it got stress mark just by putting the weapons on the corresponding peg holes. Armada and Energon line, even Animated still felt good quality. And don't get me started on the combiners from Combiner Wars; they can barely stand. I would have tried to get more of them but after completing Volcanicus, I was fed up and said no more. But again, the plastic has felt of lesser quality lately and some of the joints too loose in the more resent figures

So glad they made the trailer compatible with Siege Optimus Prime. Gonna have to get a second prime just to customize the trailer for Siege Prime.

Hahah, that IS soooo awesome. THANK YOU!

These little guys from NewAge Toys pack a big punch. Here's their take on not-Brawn and not-Outback.

It's been a while since my last discussion video. I've had this one on the back burner for some time, but I'm happy to present it now. I hope you all enjoy!

I love sitting down and talking with fellow collectors. Here is one with a great guy. Graham: The Collector75

Happy Hunting! I have a feeling this one is going to be hard to find.

Interesting poll. I did a video response. Basically only I can touch and can touch if they ask.

I'm an old school Geewunner but Beast Wars is my favorite storyline with the best characterbuilding. There is so much possibility here, just don't focus on the (Cave)humans, and give Megatron some damn screen time. Oh yeah, we gotta have David Kaye and Gary Chalk reprising their respective characters.

My review of Mastermind Creations R-28 Reformatted Tyrantron. Their take on IDW Megatron.

It's strange I don't mind if another collector touchs one of my pieces. Because there is a level of respect there they know how to handle it. But if anyone else goes for one it's a different story.

This weekend looks like a great time to catch up on some toys you may have passed on the first time around. Amazon's US website has a ton of great discounts happening right now for a variety of Transformers products across all the major lines: Siege, Studio Series, Cyberverse, and even a bit of BotBots! As always a couple caveats apply: These prices are correct as of the time of compiling them, but the can and will vary with time and changes in inventory levels, and we can't guarantee how long any of these deals will be available for.

Had a lot of fun making this one. As it completes my figure of 2019.

Bring on Pointblack (remold Punch/Counterpunch) and Sureshot (remold Mirage).

Bring us the Orion Pax, Hasbro!

Bot looks good Larkin. I guess I'm really sold on this one now.
