I have generally avoided "replacement" figures, particularly with the Seekers and Optimus Prime. However, there are quite a few figures I have gotten either because they were really good clearance price, or because they "complete" a "set". Sometimes the first exception "forces" the second. And I...
ML Arcee was a must-have for me due to being part of the '86 movie cast, but in retrospect I would have liked the prototype head with the anime colors. (Though truth be told, I would have moreso preferred a Rebirth-based Headmaster figure, since the "86" set revolves around Targetmaster Blurr...
Their Deathsaurus is my Deathsaurus. One of these days, I will assemble Eaglebreaat and Tigerbreast for him. Just gotta figure out how to keep his head from falling off...
@Superomegaprime : When the first DX Machine Robo (what became the Super Gobots) figure came out, it was the "Psychoroid", a futuristic car that appeared in one or two episodes of the anime Space Adventure Cobra. I believe the figure was envisioned more as a piloted mecha rather than an...
TimBits is another term I've seen used for them, at least at Tim Hortons.
I would assume they're called holes because they are presumably made from the dough cut out of the doughnut to make the hole?
If this series continues, I will be patiently waiting for the Guardian Icon the turns into Leader-1 and the Renegade one that turns into Cy-Kill...
EDIT: Optimus is up on BBTS, $46.99 usd.
A regular Transformer, yeah, but what about a Transtector? Like, if Chromedome in Headmasters died, wouldn't his transtector body still function in car mode?
Titans Return had some seriously legit Minibots, so I was not going to upgrade, either, but it is hard to resist these Retro figures when I have one in my hands, they look so very cool!
Saw the Steelers and Cowboys NFL helmet Transformers on the shelf at a nearby Walmart that has apparently done a reset. They also had the Retro Carded Outback and Wheelie, FWIW.
Picked up one of each off the hook at a Walmart in Keokuk, IA. I wasn't going to go all-in on this series, but Outback and Wheelie both look so very good!
(In before the 'wrong thead' message, but they must have done a recent reset, they also had 2 of the 4 NFL helmet Transformers on the shelf...
I've never gotten a tattoo because I've never felt so strongly about anything that I needed to permanently etch it into my hide, but now you've given me a goal...
Personally, I feel like the best way to do GoBots within Transformers is to portray the characters as the original cyborg GoBots...
How good of condition replacements are you looking for? I may have some duplicates; I rarely pass up opportunities to pick up Gobots when I find them, but I'm also not super picky about what shape they are in, as I can always use spare parts to make one good figure out of 2 or 3 broken ones. I...
