  1. Okay, now this one is out of the way on both sides of the Pacific, can Hasbro or Takara-Tomy please make MP Skyward from the new mold?
  2. I'll get one tomorrow, and then a parakeet so I can use the comic to line its cage.
  3. I guess it won't be the 30th anniversary until Fall. It'll be movie toys until then.
  4. You see that, game designers of Fall of Cybertron? THAT'S how you make a not-space shuttle.
  5. Wow. It's very nice, but a little too much for me. I'd rather just have FansProject make their own new Combaticons to go with their Swindle and Blast-Off.
  6. It makes IGear's version look like a cheap bootleg.
  7. There's irony about selling a Transformer to someone in China. It's like I'm sending the toy home.

  8. 3rd Party Companies, just because you don't HAVE to adhere to toy saftey rules, doesn't mean it's okay to make fragile toys.

      That is why I do not bother with Impossible toys.

      Their stuff is pure crap anyway

      Well, I posted that after receiving my Mastermind Creations, Hearts of Steel Seekers. Nothing broke, but I sure did get nervous while transforming them.

      I had IT's Valkyrie and Nightbird

      literally fall apart in my hands.

      Before I was even going to try and

      Transform them

  9. Unless it's Encore, Masterpiece, or 3rd party, I'm done collecting new Transformers.

      I am with you but could probably pass on most 3rd party stuff

  10. For a broken GDO Cliffjumper, Hasbro sent me a Generations Skullgrin. I donated Skullgrin, but I'm never going to bother with Hasbro again regarding broken toys. I'm just going to return it to the store and let them deal with it.

      there's never a guarantee they'll have your broken item in stock. I got lucky when i sent my Generations Ironhide in and got Ironhide back. But didn't fair so well with omne of my RID Trains. They sent me a different one back. I think i ended up taking the one they sent me to a store and just swapped it out. Back in the 90's, i sent an X-Force Shatterstar 2 to Toybixand got a Shatterstar 1.... that was fun.

      I know. I did expect something more current though, even the crappy RiD Bumblebee.

  11. Takara-Tomy, please, please reissue Overlord.

      Don't think it will happen. I remember reading something about the dies being damaged beyond repair...

      Make a thread please

      It's not a subject worthy of a thread, it's just an expression of frustration. Even the junkers on ebay cost a lot of money.

  12. As mildly tempting as it may be, I'm not going to buy TFP Dreadwing. I've decided to say "No" to "jet hands".

      Your missing out on a great robot figure

    3. MikePrime

      MikePrime

      Eh, robot mode. If Dreadwing had nice, closed fists that could be folded away for the jet mode, he wouldn't have "jet hands". But no, he needs to have dramatic claws.

      Well I like to display in Robot mode, so Jet hands has no bearing when it comes to deciding wheather or not to add a figure to the collection

  13. You know it's hot when the rub signs show the faction symbols all on their own.

  14. Yeah, RtS Lugnut is a great toy. I love the way the wings turn into arms, a good example of how the larger size class can benefit a Transformer's design.
  15. I bought, opened, transformed, and returned TFP Hot Shot. The alt-mode looks nice, but that robot mode is lousy. There's no way to lock the torso into place and the auto-transform gimmick prevents the head from being flush with the top of the torso.
  16. Oh G1 Bludgeon, why are you so ugly yet so expensive? (sigh)

      Goes against everything you learned in a bar, doesn't it?

  17. Would it be unwise to bet on the chance that the TFCC store will have ANY Botcon 2012 toys after the convention is over?

      What? I would have bought a bunch of them and made my money back :P. Dont see them in the store thogh :(

      I don't think they had too many. I was going to buy some Saturday but I think they were all already gone.

      Pfftt. I live in Florida, So I'm not going to see any of wave two for anothe month. :P

  18. Do you ever get a little paranoid when a person with an ebay store wins your ebay auctions?

    1. Blitz-Wing

      Blitz-Wing

      Nah, just means they're gonna flip it. The dirtbags
