Post Pictures of your Transformers, Let's see 40 years worth of Transformers!

Magna Jet Optimus and TIDAL WAAAAAAAVE

I should point out Optimus was 'Super Class' but more like a Maxcon figure with a trailer, Tidal Wave and Jetfire were 'Gigacons' or Ultra Class, Tidal Wave dwarfed both Jetfire and Megatron of that class, Overload was 'Maxcon' equal to a Mega and bulkier then any Voyager beyond 2008., Tidal Wave lacked electronics and the version here is Taraka Micron Shockwave which IMO looked better then his Aramda counterpart though could have done without that orange.


POWERLINX! (I know Ultra Magnus was a Energon character but you know what he was for!)

Just in anticipation of the upcoming Commander class toy, also I'm hopeful for Armada Megatron and Commander Tidal Wave, doesn't bother me if they combine because their combination was pretty naff.

Dang. I totally forgot Japan named Tidalwave Shockwave and made him more purple - looks good.

Aaron Archer has a podcast on YouTube. He has spent a lot of time on there talking about Tidal Wave / Shockwave. It’s a very interesting listen if you’re a fan of Armada. Or interested in how toys come to be.

I’m 100% jelly of you and anybody else who has that Magnus. I remember when Energon came out I called 6 or 7 Toys R Us trying to find a Scorponok. Never once did I ask about Magnus. Never saw him in store. He still goes for $100+ on eBay.

I bought him at Woolworths with a Space Mini-Con team redeco when I saw him, oddly he was sold as 'ultra class' because he either included them or a redeco of the Street Speed Team. He and Overload were just unfortunately bricks but they did look nice, they'd probably make a good weaponizer.

Sadly, those Street Speed Team redecos never saw release.

I absolutely love this figure, had to get the paint brush out right away, though. A little more difficult to touch-up, when you can't unscrew any of it. Everyone bashes on the lion face, but the real atrocity is the unpainted lower abs.

 

[Platypus Prime]

The entire thing is riveted or pinned...?

 

[ZacDeath]

The entire thing is riveted or pinned...?

That is right, not a single screw on the whole figure. Fist time I have seen this.

 

[Platypus Prime]

I'd never have expected that. I think a while back the first War For Cybertron Deluxe Optimus had some exposure because it supposedly had little to no metal, but the fact that they'd to make any metal 'all pins' now is even weirder to me, since it makes it nearly impossible to adjust or repair...

I have a pin punch and I still can't take many push-pins apart as they don't go all the way through.

 

[Darth_Prime]

Got my Leo in the mail today. I opened that chest and saw his nipple. It’s a little weird.

I’m very satisfied with him though. The Beast Wars figure was one I always wanted but never dropped the money on. The repaints never just quite got it over the years.

opening Metalhawk, Twin Cast and Tarn tonight as well.

 

[Platypus Prime]

Now, now, let's be mature here...I believe the correct anatomical term for that part of the body, according to 'Bio-Booster Armor Guyver', is "Mega-Smasher".

 

[Agent X]

Somehow the Kenner "Gargoyles" castle playset came up when my friend came into town and that reminded me when I procured one years ago, I did a little 'renovation'.

As intended:


My 'improvements':






A guy I knew online was learning how-to 'Stain glass' and his obsession bled into his vocation.

 

[Gizmoboy]

That's awesome!

 

[Lobjob]

Jealous of that Fangwolf too.

 

[Donocropolis]

We need a Cannonball repaint

"Hammerhand? Is that you...?"
"Here's a hi...wait, am I in the wrong series...?"

 

[Superomegaprime]

"Here's a hi...wait, am I in the wrong series...?"

Nope, its Claw hand, Dr Claw's long forgotten cousin, twice removed

 

[Gizmoboy]

Senator Ratbat and his security escort

 

[PrimalxConvoy]

I painted over the cr@pple-damage with black, metallic red, grey/white and boltgun-metal paints and then added silver-backed Decepticon symbols (from Toyhax).

Here's the toy(below) before the detailing:
