I wasn't referring to the Action Master, which was an unapproved knock-off not made by Has/Tak. I was referring to this:

That guy on the SyFy show was a damn fool parting ways with this gem. I wouldn't have given a sh*t about what the host thought, she'd have no chance to con my ass into parting ways with that let alone the majority of my collection. Which wouldn't happen either... :P :VEHI:


Which Syfy show is this? I've seen that one episode of Pawn Stars where those psycho lowballers tried to buy that huge collection of over 1000 vintage TFs for like 5k. Thankfully that guy kept his collection. If he had sold, I would have been on my way to Las Vegas with a U-haul and a crowbar :)

Rha had made a good point. It would be awesome if this Unicron mold was released as an Encore. I wonder if Takara would ever seriously look at it? I know i'd buy it.


I'd buy it squeeling.

An Encore of a figure that was never released. How interesting. :lol:
From past images, that thing appears to be pretty big... I wonder if there was even a mold made or if it was a sculpted model.

Yep this thing is huge. Probably the 2nd biggest TF of all time, I'm sure it beats Overlord.

The show is called "Collection Intervention" and the host is suppose to be an expert in appraising of certain toy/collectibles and in the auctioning of them. So somehow she convinced the guy to sell it or a moment of weakness on his part, I don't know. He also had what appeared to be a lot of G1 Takara still MISB. The whole thing was enough to make any TF fan go :michaelbay: . :VEHI:
