I don't know what that is either, but I would pay $9.99 for a modern Battle Beast, were such a thing to exist.

No email for Deathsaurus yet, but I did get one for the G.I. Joe Hiss Tank!

Haywire, you just reminded me that I should have listed Gobots Turbo as one of my "5 Most Wanted Gen Deluxe Characters" in that thread.

That's pretty much how I feel. G1 will always be my true north, but I have embraced - and found lots to like - about most of the subsequent series.

It's hard to perfect perfection :) . In all seriousness though, I would be curious to see what the current team would do with the jet and car Vehicon.

Yeah, the RID 2001 / Car Robots car bros. would be very welcome.

I like Rodimus' design and overall, the Commander figure hits all of the right notes. But I am in agreement with the criticisms leveled at the vehicle mode. I understand that some compromises must be made even at this pricepoint, but I just don't see a reason why the vehicle mode should have...

Hmm...let's see. In no particular order: 1). G1 Windcharger 2). Cybertron Sideways (Galaxy Force Noisemaze) 3). Beast Machines Thrust 4). Beast Wars Quickstrike 5). G1 Omnibot Overdrive I specifically left this one off, because it seems like he might be forthcoming: G1 earth mode Hound, for...

I love to use the feature as well. However, I have painted myself into a corner with it a few times. I don't know if wonko the sane? is in this position, but there have been occasions where I've been waiting on all but one item to arrive, and things in my PoL were needing to be shipped within...

Not a bad choice, what with the 40th coming up and all. I love Earthrise Prime, but my hope at the Commander pricepoint would be that the trailer would be better-proportioned, include Roller, Matrix, gas nozzle, missles, etc. Beyond that, and seeing how it is a movie toy, I would expect maybe...

The only thing that really bothers me about the SS86 van is the "nubs" on the top. I get that they are there for Ratchet's ambulance lights, but they look bizarre on Ironhide. Beyond that, I think that the SS86 version does a good job of doing what it is supposed to do. And no feet dangling...

Yeah, I'm not sure who that is supposed to be.

That's not a bad Ross discount. I still don't think that they're worth quite that much, but it's better than the original retail price at least.

After a little research, I have come to understand that Nissan (Datsun) had several trim packages of the Vanette available in the 70s and 80s (LX, SG, SGL, D, T, GL, etc.). The "2000" designator apparently refers to the model, but I'm not sure how often it was used as a graphic on the actual...

I love this pic! Pardon my ignorance though, but what is the significance of the "2000" logo on Ironhide? I get the yellow stripe, and it looks like you've used a sticker set with some other upgrades, but just wondering about the number.

Yep. Got the shipping notice for Code Red from Pulse. He's on the way!

I get that the stock pics may be distorted, but I like, saw them on the Fanstream yesterday. They may not be as tall as the pics make them appear, but they're still gangly, lanky, whatever descriptor works best for you. Kinda weird but I guess that's just how these things are designed.

I will agree that Bumblebee looks interesting, and Starscream looks pretty cool as well. They are the better pack, IMO, but I don't need either in my collection.

^That is still such a cool take on Springer. I love what they were able to achieve with both him and Sandstorm.

IIRC, these neck pieces are modular, and the user can add as many or as few as they want. Maybe using fewer would have yielded a cleaner looking dino mode?
