Check out below the mirrored image, and join the conversation in the Energon Pub.
Has anyone taken a picture of Bisk with/in a bowl of lobster bisque?

Big time, they are by far the very best site to get rarer Japanese items. Its where I do all my purchases for TFs I cant find on e-bay. If you have any questions, let me know.

To be fair, Mini-Cons kinda have the liberty to switch between factions in a fictional sense given their third party nature that allows them to side with whomever they choose to partner with.Nexus Knight wrote:One of the biggest problems with the Weaponizer Mini-Cons is that they can't decide which damn faction they oughta belong to. Lancelon is marketed as both and . There's another that has the seem deal as well, I just can't think of which it is.

And why do promotional figures have to be clear? They look too good!

Thank you, the story has been corrected accordingly

These kinds of limited edition Japanese store exclusives traditionally don't see U.S. releases.WreckerJack wrote:I am digging that clear plastic. Here is to hoping there will be a US release. (Doubt it but we shall see)

In fact, TakaraTomy released some of the US Mini-Cons that weren't in Japanese regular retail as giveaways, using Hasbro decos: Sawback, Beastbox, Velocirazor, Divebomb and Ratbat. The last two got redecos as single releases anyway.
Speaking of single releases, TakaraTomy must have a lot of problems integrating those into other sets or giveaways. Here are the ones who have yet to see release there:
- Swelter/Glacius
- Hammer
- Undertone
- Bashbreaker
- Lord Doomitron
- Weaponizer Slipstream

Eh, still too rich for my blood, especially since I only want Dogfight. Funnily enough, I only recently realised that even though the Viper head doesn't match his Marvel portrayal, it's really close to his original toy:
Transformers G1 1988 Dogfight Gallery
Wish they made Backstreet too, to complete the Triggerbot team with Override. Easy with the Rodimus head of the Runabout mold.

These have not shown up on eBay, to my knowledge. I check daily.
Recent campaign Arms Microns have been difficult to find outside of these orders.
Said recent items sold out very quickly through BBTS (Ink, Sting, Burn, Rain)
It is a special version of an in-show character.
Lancelon has awesome knight armor. Do you? Nope.

That's my made up Japanese name for the Ultra Bee combiner if it's released in their power of the primes line.

Why wouldn't they just keep the Hasbro name like they've done for practically every Adventure toy character with a Hasbro counterpart?chuckdawg1999 wrote:Sabrblade wrote:What?chuckdawg1999 wrote:Sabrblade wrote:You mean putting those toys in the Legends line?

It features appearances of many toy-only characters from the Adventure toyline (including the ones exclusive to Hero-X) who did not appear in the RID 2015 cartoon (but which does include a couple of characters from the previous Prime cartoon).
Expect an English summary of this manga's events from TFWiki in the near future.

For Lockdown, the two Insecticons were advertised as his personal army of minions, and they're both redecos/retools of decent Generations molds, so they're good to go with Adventure Lockdown.BombshellDaBug wrote:Seeing these manga scans has me wondering: who here collected stuff from the Adventure line, and which molds would they recommend? I kind of dig some of the repaints and was wondering which ones people preferred. Already have Lockdown, so who do you think would look good alongside him?

Really? Wow, that in itself is news worthy! I take it the same situation was at the allspark?
It would be funny if the other sites had the same problem.
