Good old yellow Meister. He's great. But not. It's weird. I'll never get rid of him now though!!

My NES did, a few controllers, various other robits (including Jetfire of the G1 variety). It's weird.

Back then they were probably friends. Nowadays, not so much.

"Where is Firebolt?" you ask? Couldn't find him before leaving the house this morning.

You know what else I just realized? G1 Hot Rod is as hollow in the torso as Titanium Rodimus Prime. Just. Now. Realized. :lol:

Adding a G1 Hot Rod in PERFECT shape?!?

Good old Takara Collection Hot Rodimus!! Unfortunately, all that is left of my original G1 Hot Rod are his instructions, the back of his box w/tech spec, his guns, and his canopy with spoiler :-(

So. Here's today's desk variety.

Speaking with my friends, I'm very tempted to pick up the Takara Legends version of Targetmaster Hot Rod, if only to make this picture that much better!!

Once you go legends you can't go back

So TR HR's TM is a homage to his G1 TM right? 8-}

You need to get xtb locke to get the mp-28 target master

It's true, I think I'll be hard pressed to not buy more!! I think TL is referencing G1 which is interesting as Hot Rod was never a TM over there!! Doesn't really matter, he wasn't a Headmaster either :-P

Give in to the tempts!

He does confuse me a bit. Those hood flames? Are they some kinda holigram or foil? They look like they came right off the cover of a 90's comic book :lol:

If I remember right, it is clear plastic.

I thought the same thing at first blush. It's be super cool if that clear plastic had glitter in it . More things need glitter :DANCE:

Speaking of the 90's - Lisa Frank anyone?

I liked the Dissect-an-Alien puzzle too, Cobo!

Do you guys remember ROBO FORCE? I saw this in my new vintage toy store and the memories came flooding back....

One thing I always wanted but my parents refused to buy (too expensive) was ROBOTIX.

As a parent now, if my kids asked for this, I 'd have to say HELL YEAH LETZ GO GET DIS NAO

News Credits: 131 · by **no-one** » Mon Jul 03, 2017 3:18 pm

Do I remember Robo Force!?!?! I think I had most of them and their car thing.

I used to love suction cupping those dudes to walls and doors and what ever else they would stick too ;)^

I remember the robotix from the Sears Wishbook, but not more than that. Speaking of Wishbooks, wanna rabbit hole you will not survive?
