Takara Tomy has psted the first full set of images of Synergenex Transformers Macross crossover Basara Prime. The figure converts from Basara Nekki's red VF-19 Excalibur Custom Variable Fighter to Gerwalk Mode (a staple of Macross), a special ground mode with wheels, or guitar-playing robot...
I decided to save myself $50 and not get the Condor or T-Bob/Scott (I have an original T-Bob, and this one doesn't look to do anything different). I did decide to order a minty-fresh Switchblade, I can always cancel my order or try to sell my original if I decide I don't need both.
Saw somewhere that it was supposed to be at 8am Eastern, but obviously that has come and gone. Maybe they meant 8am Central, as BBTS is located in that time zone? (It is the best time zone.)
CORRECTION: 10 AM Eastern, 9 Central. The person who said 8am Eastern had seen 9 Central and adjusted...
The time has come for me to make some decisions. I think I may be in for the Rhino and Thunderhawk, as I don't have any version of those, nor did I ever as a kid (but always wanted them.) The Switchblade and Condor I have "G1" versions of, though neither is quite 100% complete. My...
Yeah, I have several Zybots, and this one really goes above and beyond for that line. it definitely still "feels" cheap, but there are a lot of moving parts to rearrange everything between the two modes, 3 retractable landing gear, and a really clean jet mode.
Stopped by a local store today that's a cross between an antique mall and a mom-and-pop Big Lots/Ollie's. Found a dying Ironhide/Prowl 2 Pack and an assortment of "lesser" brand robots that I discuss more in the Lesser Brand Robots Thread.
Came across a few good finds today for $5 each (not the Ironhide /Prowl)
Pictured left to right are:
Converters Bandit, which I already had a copy of, but this one has stiffer leg joints allowing him to actually stand up, plus he was $5, so who am I to say "no?"
Remco Zybots, the recolor...
Yup, Peoria Il, I'm in Decatur. I'll need to check out When Toys Were Toys, never been there, but we find ourselves up that way occasionally.
I didn't notice what they had on Blur, but nothing there is priced unreasonably.
I didn't buy this mold because I wasn't attached to Armada Prime, but I've been hoping for a repaint that could be used as a new character on my shelf. My ideal deco would be the Powerlinx version, but this is very tempting, too. I love that's it's a deep blue instead of black.
Went to go see the band Cake at an outdoor concert last night in Peoria. While in town, we stopped by Urban Artifacts which is an amazing antique store. We had just checked out and were getting ready to leave and chatting with the cashier when I noticed a box behind her with an Optimus Prime...
There was a time when I would have considered this madness, but after getting a "Cancelled G2 Decos" subline, I would not be COMPLETELY shocked by a a line composed entirely of animation-error original characters, and I would be among the first in line for it.
