:) Popped in to my local Toys R Us and had a word with the very helpful Customer Services assistant about Transformers Masterpieces. I inquired about any that where currently available on their systems, with only Masterpiece Acid Storm floating around, but what really caught my eye further down the list was Masterpiece Prowl and Masterpiece Sunstorm! The Customer Services assistant checked both items, which unfortunately didnt have a confirmed release date, but each had their own SKN/VNDR reference number and a price against them. Transformers Masterpiece Prowl was priced at £59.99 with a

:) A Robotmel Lazy Customs Production Presenting Classics Voyager G2 MEGATRON! After tinkering with my Classics G2 Optimus Prime, I felt he needed a friend to play with so went about knocking up a custom G2 Megatron to hold his hand! Created from a Marvel Crossovers Hulk, I added a spare Classics Voyager Megatron head and fusion cannon that I had in my parts box from an old KO, a faction sticker and some purple stickers, giving him a cheeky update to something more articulated! A lick of blue paint to his face and this lazy custom was ready to roll! More photos here... Custom V

:doh According to TFW2005, this is a fake. Its the same table from the Tokyo Toy Show 2012 but someone has edited the picture behind to show Bumblebee, which most are suggesting should be MP Bumble if its a Takara product!

Custom Classics Galvatron with Generations Scourge and Classics Cyclonus!

:con A Robotmel Lazy Customs Production Presenting Classics Voyager GALVATRON! With this lazy custom, I wanted to create a Classics version which offered a mix of the various depictions of Galvatron, especially the colouring, which mixes purple, blue, grey, red, gold, black and orange. Created from three versions of the Classics Voyager Megatron mould, two of which where knock offs, this Voyager sized Galvatron has had various parts swapped out to offer a familiar yet slightly different take on everyones favourite meniacal Decepticon leader. Using absolutely no paint what so e

Display Case Idea - What Do You Think?
robotmel replied to robotmel's topic in Custom Repaints and Kitbashes
:) A few more pics, up close and personal! ;) I know Sideswipe aint a 'con but I didnt have another Voyager sized Decepticon to hand, but you get the idea! I have managed to crack a couple of joints here and there, my fault! :( A slight tweaking of the faction logo, making it a little more centred and we nearly there! Hope you like! :yay -

:) Thank you for everyones positive feedback so far. I have passed on a link to this thread and a couple more suggestions for further cases to my brother-in-law. He rang me last night, feeling rather pleased with himself, has offered to make me a couple more at cost, so as soon as they get delivered I will get some more photos up. Whilst he is still tweaking the cutting process (its all done with lasers!!) and sourcing the acrylic sheets, I have asked if he could work out some sort of price list and delivery costs, so all being well a small production run could be started if there -
:bot Greetings alien robot lovers! Hope this is okay posted here as it's not so much a custom Transformer but a custom made display case for Transformers, or anything really but I'll get to that later! The story goes... My wife started asking odd questions regarding the size of a Transformer, height, width, depth, name etc which I thought extremely out of character? She likes the movies, tolerates my collection and I think she has a thing for the voice of Optimus Prime, Peter Cullen!! Now I love a surprise and was filled with hope that she had some crazy plan for a gift

We have an IKEA in Milton Keynes over here in the UK which stock the DETOLF glass display cabinets and also the optional light fitting which sets the whols thing off really well in my opinion? I bought a 2 pack of lights as I intend to pick up another cabinet after pay day! Here's a quick pic of my cabinet! :tfpwn

Uh HELLO! Did anyone notice the potential G2 repaint..?

I consider myself a huge fan of Transformers and have been for years now (I'm knocking 40!) and I have seen various incarnations of these robots in disguise come and go. Without Generation 1 we probably wouldn’t be here now, but as polls and forums are there to offer discussion and opinions, I feel I can honestly say... the Gen 1 toys are poor, badly designed, and ugly in comparison to the newer, modern styled, articulated advanced versions such as Armada, Cybertron, Alternators/BT, Universe/Henkei, Alternity, Generations/United, Fansproject and even some of the Bayverse!

UK Update! Just spotted this awesome 2 pack for sale in the all new 2011 Argos online catalogue! Yes, every UK buyers favourite laminated book of dreams has this classic 2 pack listed on their website (and assuming their new catalogue also) for an Ebay killing £21.99 (GBP)! Roll on pay day!

Will Hasbro produce a Classics Shockwave?
- Show previous comments 1 more

a long time ago they showed prototypes of a titanium shockwave. It could be possible they'll release THAT in all plastic I s´pose. They also made a Cosmos figure too that was deluxe sized
-
they would have to make new molds for the pieces that wouldve been diecast so thats unlikely. I doubt we'll see a classic Shockwave until after DOTM

If the movie generates enough popularity for Shockwave as a character in that I won't be surprised
