That was pretty much my line of thinking, too. A lot of times we think of the Matrix upgrading a bot into a Prime, but Hot Rod into Rodimus is the only example of it in the cartoon. The Orion Pax -> Optimus Prime transition was a product of a physical rebuild by Alpha Trion (though you could...

Got my TF:One Sentinel Prime last night, and I was putting him in a line with the rest of the lineage of Primes (filling in as Nominus), and I got to thinking. Should Ultra Magnus be in there between Optimus and Rodimus? He never changed his name to Magnanimous Prime or anything, but he was...

Yeah, his transformation involves tucking the tail up under the back "shell," which wasn't designed to hinge up high enough to get the tail to swing past the legs without an incredibly uncomfortable amount of flexing. I don't plan on doing much swapping him between modes.

Been thinking we needed a thread like this for a while. Basically, a place to show off and/or discuss old 80's toylines that aren't knockoffs, so to speak, but also aren't major brand releases like Transformers and Go-Bots. Releases from smaller companies trying to compete/cash in on the...

I grabbed a helicopter and a jet out of curiosity. They're definitely cheap feeling, shampoo-bottle plastic, but the molding and paint aren't bad. and the weapons are decent. For $5 each, if you were trying to fill in the background of a battle scene with generics, it wouldn't be a bad way to...

Small local comic and toy show in my hometown this weekend. Picked me up a few things:

Got Prima and Wasp on the 30% off sale, so I was able to cancel my preorders from Pulse. They had Megatronus, too, but he was already in my BBTS Pile of Loot, so I left him there.

Shut up and take my money!

Dammit, you're right. Can't believe I forgot about him. He's perfect.

Yeah, it looks really good! I liked Prey a lot, and this looks really fun! Feudal Japan, WWII, and Viking era are all fantastic backdrops for a Predator hunt story. The WWII one is definitely unique, looking like it may spend a lot of time with a Pred hunting airplanes from his ship, which...

Ooh, yeah. Make it one with the lumber grabbing arm:

Looked at an Ollie's while I was working in Ohio. Tons of the Beast War reissues still, but none of these.

Dammit! Now I need a Paul Bunyon Crossover! Maybe an Optimus Prime with paint apps to make his torso look like flannel, a new bearded head, and the energon axe in a more traditional steel-with-red-paint color scheme?

Discovered these yesterday on ebay. There seem to be several online. Loving this oversized, simplified Ramhorn remolded to be a....cow? Pretty sure cow. A cowsette, if you will.

Just showed it to my son a few weeks ago, and it was the first time I've watched it since I was a kid. There are some issues with the movie, but there are some great bits. The main ship design is amazing, Gothic cathedral shaped steel frame structure with interior lit translucent walls? It's...

Surprisingly, they merged like the end of Disney's The Black Hole

Open the door, get on the floor, everybody walk your dinosaur.

That head mold looks more sad than angry. Like someone just told him that Ravage got hit by a car.

Man, that mold looks great in any color scheme.

That's good to know. I'll have to check out my local Target today.
