They really should get a modern update. They don't need their sparking feature, just three little angry monsterbots with great articulation.

Neo-G1. Mkall is 100% to blame for that. He was one of the first people to start a "Neo-G1" collection and at first I had no interest in doing it, until suddenly I realised one day I had a Neo-G1 collection. Combiner Wars was probably the tipping point.
Va'al wrote:Oh! And how you do define/categorise it, then?
Also, do you rotate figures on display, do you have any in storage, do you change positioning/pose regularly?

For these guys (people call them the '87 Seekers apparently?) I don't think you can go wrong either way, Hasbro or Takara. But if you want the "full experience" then go Takara for the Targetmasters. They are absolutely worth the additional price IMO.Burn wrote:These guys ... DAMN! I had TR Triggerhappy but I accepted a long time ago that I never end up seeing the last few waves of a series, so I switched over to Legends, and had to get that version of Triggerhappy as well. Slugslinger is sitting comfortably in my private warehouse at HLJ and I really can't wait to put him with these two. They're both fantastic figures, easily some of the best from the line.
I'm actually a huge fan of TR Rod, but it's nice to see someone else's Legends Rod is floppy. Mine is too. Can't even hold up his damn Targetmaster dude. Also the hollowness of his chest in bot mode isn't appealing. I don't hate him by any means, but he was a let down for sure.Burn wrote:And then there's this.
TR version was ... meh. Legends? Talk about a floppy mess. He's just not a good figure in general.
He's kinda goo/bad to me. Both versions are great due to the transformation. Takara's has a clearly better bot mode, but I actually prefer the Hasbro one for truck mode. The remolding they did for the Takara Kup leaves him gappy in truck mode, and it sucks to see that amazing truck mode suffer for a little more screen accuracy.Burn wrote:This guy though ...
He's okay. I still prefer CHUG Kup though, while Legends may be more accurate to his G1 self, CHUG Kup just looks better.
Agreed! Either one is great. I prefer Tak's though personally.Burn wrote:Another one of the better figures from the line.
He's just all round fun, regardless of which version you get.
With all your G1'yness I didn't know you were interested in the Bayformers. With Knight Prime, I have some advice if you're seeking one of the other versions. The Takara TLK with the shield backpack, I didn't find all that great. Sure it was nice to get that thing off his back but the shield is so big and so clumsy, that it's just a fail to me. My recommendation would be for the Takara AD-31 Armor Knight. It's the remold repaint of the one you have with backpack still intact.Burn wrote:And now for the big disappointments. The Last Knight ...
Hound - I like the character, John Goodman did a fantastic job of voicing him. But this ...
...is just crap. Especially compared to his Age of Extinction version. I mean look at those feet! They're two wheels split in half. And he lacks weaponry. ugh ...
And this
Is just a repaint. Laziness in a main line. Not impressed.
