I'm one of those who actually transforms my Transformers. So I may have combined mode for a while, then individuals, then (like at the moment) Abominus combined fighting the Protectobots individually, etc. That's why I like sturdy joints as opposed to clear decoration plastics, simply for...

Since the nephew with the train setups has something like five or six different scales, after I give these to him, I can probably get actual pictures of the Autobots on a real track pulling cars of some sort. That might be interesting...I doubt they'd ROLL on them, though. I actually avoided...

Heh...this reminds me of what I did with Transmetal 2 Megatron and Beast Machines dragon Megatron. I liked both as toys but didn't like the BM one AS Megatron, so I renamed him Megaplex...

On the subject of fallen heroes (or whatever), I can see it now, as in my nephew's Thomas setup, Thomas stops to say hello to three new engines he hasn't seen before. Then Optimus, Bumblebee, and Astrotrain transform to robot mode, do a little jig, and Astrotrain transforms into shuttle mode...

I didn't know what BookOff was, I will look into that. But that's why I'm just going to get one, for ME, and if it somehow does become super-valuable, great. But this time I'm just looking at it for my own shelf. I've gotten very few extras and spares anymore. A lot say "In case of breakage...

This is why I went back to see what I did for TFSS 4.0 (an exclusive combiner, back then it was seven deluxes and a Voyager). Double checking, I made a mistake in my initial posting, but I still think they're roughly comparable. Except they didn't have a lot of 'new' weapons, mostly Bludgeon's...

I think if you take a couple appropriately sized blast effects, you can put them in Jaruga's hands, and have an instant jetpack. Problem solved. Then take them out after you get the picture you want so they don't melt the hands. I do wonder if there will be anything detail-wise in the final...

I've been waffling, but I think I can do it if I am *very* stingy on the next year. Liokaiser for me, and the Steampunk Transformers for the nephew. That would give me Deathsaurus, Victory Saber, Omega Prime, and Liokaiser for my 'no borrow shelf' (my 'personal set' of Transformers that he...

I'm sorry if this is inappropriate for the board, but someone had to say it...seriously, if you do the math it's like $45-$65 a pound, that's NUTS...

I just want to get a Hellbat so I can have him and Mindwipe sighing as Kup points to them saying "NaNaNaNaNaNaNaNa, NaNaNaNaNaNaNaNa...." "This happens every time we appear in public..."

While highly unlikely, if they still had and could use the mold, I'd love to see a repaint of the Saber Brainmaster micro-figure in some way as Jan, both as a joke to the cast of Victory, and to give Saber a spare/alternate face.

On some level Liokaiser reminds me a lot of the old TFSS but with new molds, and you get all the bots at once. But then again, my favorite CW style combiner was Thunder Mayhem (lost it when forced to scramble in the Year of Medical Mess) so I may just be seeing a positive that only exists in my...

I have only seen the one promo pic of the hip region in 'alt' mode, I'm not sure what it is supposed to be. A big cargo pod? Or does the dune buggy guy just drive around with part of a combiner 'just in case'? And combining might be even more difficult when you consider that three of the...

Where do his hips and upper legs come from, though? No mention of the extra parts, and they don't seem to be a trailer, but I also don't see them in the components? Edit: Never mind, they're some sort of giant cargo pod or something on top of the dune buggy. So DeathCobra is Serpentor when...

So Deathcobra is dead. And he has a cobra! At last, someone lives up to their name! The comic just writes itself. Deathcobra: My cobra is dead. Killbison: I killed my bison myself. Eaglekiller: I'm up on federal charges... But seriously, it's NOT bad, though $300 is a lot. Given that I've...

What's Deathcobra doing in the picture, anyway? A shoulder cannon? Deathcobra's cannon mode is now canon? Or is Liokaiser's shoulder just a helipad to show how 'big' he is?

That's actually the take I had to go with for my nephew, I have had and seen a LOT and had no interest, but to him it's all new, and he's had a mix of getting new stuff and borrowing (often for a lot longer than a borrow should last but whatever) from my stuff (we live next door to each other)...

I *think* he has a combiner hand visible there? Not sure. Interesting designs, that's for sure...some obvious shared parts between limbs, but that also means less tooling costs. Rather simple transformations, but THAT means less tiny struts to potentially break, and easier conversion and...

Me, whenever anyone thinks about how old the fandom is: Because sooner or later, we all become Kup or Wheeljack in the end...

Ohh....right in the 'gold plastic'...
