    All of these look cool, but I really want that purple Sideswipe!

    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...

    Post Pictures of Your Weirdest Optimus Prime & Megatron Pairings

    @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...

    Random Thoughts From Out of Nowhere

    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?

    That purple looks really good on Powerglide!

    The new Transformers Deal Thread

    Freakwency and Cyberworld Scorponok both qualified for the 40% off, so that's something. Thanks for the heads-up!

    Transformers Icons

    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.

    The Random Transformers Image Thread

    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?

    Walmart "Transformers Retro" line (G1-based redecos/retools)

    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!

    Transformers Collaborative series

    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.

    Walmart "Transformers Retro" line (G1-based redecos/retools)

    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...

    Gobots and Machine Robo News & Discussion

    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...

    Gobots and Machine Robo News & Discussion

    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...

    Gobots and Machine Robo News & Discussion

    There was an actual Gobots episode with a shrink ray, so I'm not sure he would have felt a need for a second one? Cy-Kill's Shrinking Ray

    THE KNOCK OFF TRANSFORMERS THREAD

    Clearly, you've been let down by the education system. This calls for an immediate binge-watch of Voltron and MMPR!

    HasLab 2025: Liokaiser

    I'm not sure how much I want Deathcobra as a cannon. I kinda just want him as Deathcobra. Might combine the set sometimes, but I mostly bought in for the individual dudes and their little animal buddies. If I need Liokaiser for a display, I'll probably use the CW-style Destron set for that.

    Books, novels, literature, what have you read lately?

    Voices In The Night: Rare Stories by William Hope Hodgson A collection of short stories, most with a nautical background. Easy to read in short bursts, many of these have a fantastical or even almost eldritch element to them. What got me interested was the Voice in the Night short story, which...

    Gobots and Machine Robo News & Discussion

    Yeah, as someone who (since 2001-ish) considers himself a Gobot collector who also collects Transformers, I've certainly seen the general attitude among fans shift more positively in favor of Gobots, but there are still those out there who feel like they can trash on Gobots.

    Toys That Didn't Survive Our Childhoods...

    Oh, wow, what to list? I'm the oldest of 8 kids (20 year span between me and my youngest brother), and most of our childhood toys got passed down and played with hard. Virtually none of my toys survived intact, if at all, although I eventually got pretty good at fixing them when I could. My...

    HasLab 2025: Liokaiser

    Not to ruin the lyric vibe of the thread, but we've seen a lot of Victory in HasLab, haven't we? We got Galaxy Shuttle in a capsule line, Dinoking in Selects, Greatshot in Legends, and a couple of Black Shadows at retail over the years. Victory Sabre and Deathsaurus were HasLabs (along with the...
