Cool. It's probably too much to hope it runs under MacOS, but I could try getting it to work on my XP netbook.

Yeah I doubt it will support Macs, but the physical device is still cool enough to warrant purchase.

What are they going for these days? I really wish we could get releases like that over here instead of pointless things like Robot Replicas and battle bumpers (IMG:style_emoticons/default/icon-waspy.gif)

$40-50 for these two. $45-55 for Grimlock and Trypticon (out November), and $50- $60 for Blaster (out December).

I love this mold for Ravage, but the price is still way too high. I held out long enough to get Music Label Soundblaster for $30, so I'm hoping to eventually pick this thing up on the cheap.

I do wonder how this Autobot Tigatron fits into Beast Wars continuity.
He was around prior to the beast wars on Earth (as seen in the Botcon '06 comic) so perhaps he's been around for longer than there were Maximals? --------------------  |

Could be like Jaguar/Ravage in Binaltech, and some how he survived the 4 million years from the end of Beast Wars until now.

I suppose since Ravage got an upgrade, and guys like Glit have been carried into G1, it's possible Tigatron was a G1 tape we never saw. Or a late comer, and he got upgraded into a Maximal body as seen in Dawn's and viola. Dinobot is harder to accept. And tiny Tripticon even more so hehe

Luckily Dinobot was changed to Grimlock like a week after we found out about these.
I wonder if there is any fiction for these at all? Music Label had some, but I don't know if it fits with the normal G1 continuity (I imagine it does). Randy -------------------- |

I think Walky will be pleased to see that this Ravage can Pounce.

Randy The big crazy official Japanese G1 Timeline that came with some later Kiss Play items included Music Label Soundwave's story, but not Convoy's...presumably because he was supposed to be dead during the period when it was taking place. But then, Convoy's is all about stopping Soundwave's plan, so it's all a little vague. -------------------- |

I see. I don't recall if Sports Label Convoy or Megatron had any fiction.

They did indeed. The vaguely Magnus-colored Convoy even had his own.

I figured, Takara is usually good at giving figures fiction, even if it's really convoluted.

These images give a good indication of their size. I think it's pretty perfect for Ravage and Classics/Universe figures.
Based on HLJ, it seems Ravage is considerably more popular than Tigatron (if that wasn't surprising). Randy

Got Ravage earlier today from Image Anime.
$58.00USD before sales tax is what I paid for it. Def. ranks up there in the catagory of worst "bang for my buck" as far as my recent TFs purchases are concerned. I basically only bought it for both my love for Ravage and to a lesser extent my love of the more esoteric TFs products that Tak/Tom puts out, ie: Sports Label & Disney Label. I'm 98.6% sure this will be both my first and last Device Label purchase unless something else comes out and totally blows my mind. The other announced items I can totally do without. Your friend, TSM-in-N.Y. "Marines, we are leaving!" -------------------- KEEP THE BEATS PHRESH YO! TSM-in-N.Y.
"To paraphrase the great M. Biehn in The Terminator, I don't misspell words, you do. Don't do that again. Listen and understand, I am out here. I can't be bargained with, I can't be reasoned with. I don't feel pity, or remorse, or fear and I absolutely will not stop, ever, until you are dead!" - TSM-in-N.Y. "The reason why it's popular is because most people are stupid. If Michael Bay told people staring into the sun was fun, they'd do it. This movie is like staring into a retarded sun." - Devin Faraci on why Transformers: ROTF made as much money as it did despite it it being utter tripe "I personally believe that U.S. Americans are unable to do so because, uh, some people out there in our nation don't have maps, and, uh, I believe that our education, like such as in South Africa and the Iraq, everywhere, like, such as. And I believe that they should, our education over here in the U.S. should help the U.S., er, should help South Africa, and should help the Iraq and the Asian countries, so we will be able to build up our future for our children."

Randy I'd like to the page on Soundwaves Oblivion's translated tech specs, but it was on GEOCITIES! Luckily I have a saved copy of them: QUOTE Convoy feat Nike Free 7.0 01 Role: Supreme Cybertron Commander / Runner Ability: - Concealing tremendous power and incredible mobility, he can expand his body from sneaker size to that of an earthen person. -Obtains information on various athletes by disguising himself as a sneaker in order to draw out specifications. -Discharges air in order to stabilise the quantity of internal energy using two electrical discharge cables which extend from his foldable shoulder armour. Character: Has a steel intention to carry out justice, and to give courage to many people. Background: From planet Seibertron, the Cybertron and Destron forces have brought their battle to Earth and have been touched by the sports culture, and learnt of its spenders. Convoy hopes in order for peace, that by obtaining a new body with Nike technology they will be victorious over the Destron army.
