Of course that's what I would see. You don't know me very well do you :-?

The background is always where all the interesting things take place.

There was some tiny plastic giant robots in those pics as well right?!?

Yep, there were some plastic items of goodness taking center stage. I guess I need to work on the backdrop some more. :-?

welp, since we lost the last few days, guess I'm gonna need to do this again:

1) Cary: My Hoist came from Louisiana! He didn't originate too far from you!

2) I forget what I posted 2nd. Anyone remember? someone responded just before the blackout :MAXIMAL:

Ok, Question here for you guys. I am in need of advice based on your experiences.

I'm watching several auctions of some toys and I want to know your guy's opinions on them and if they are worth it. They are:

Cybertron Cannonball loose but complete
MIB Titanium Optimus Prime
MP Roadrage complete
Generations (old) Wheeljack loose with blaster and instructions
Armada Hotshot loose and complete
Universe Treadbolt MIB
RiD Gigatron loose
Generations Tracks loose minus 2 blasters
MP Sideswipe.

Any you guys recommend over the others? I'm thinking I'll get at least one. they were named in order of ending auctions, with Cannonball ending in 23 hours. Let me know your thoughts please! :MAXIMAL:

I think either Roadrage or Sideswipe MPs. If you wanna finally get some MPs then that's the smartest option. Probably Sideswipe.

News Credits: 41 · by **Cobotron** » Tue Mar 15, 2016 5:43 pm

All nice finds.
I would scratch Armada Hotshot off the list.
I would put Gigatron at the top of the list.
Then MPs. I would recommend Swipe over RR if this is your first MP experience.
Canon Ball, etc.

You know Jack and Tracks are the same mold, right?

I do know that Cobs, and I like that the legs are backwards in comparison to each other to look different. I wouldn't mind either of them. I figured the MP's and the Gigatron would be toppers, but the MP's are days away and have already almost gone out of my price range, so they may be no go's. Any other opinions? It's looking like I may have to try to Cannonball. $7 after shipping isn't bad at all, and no one is watching it! :MAXIMAL:

Cannonball is super cool, especially for $7. ;)^

Hey D, you know who has some great gently used stuff for sale at really nice prices?
itscramtastic, that's who! I've bought a bunch of Classics/Gen stuff, but he still has tons more.

Might be worth checking it out.

Just went through it thanks! Nothing really of interest there unfortunately. :MAXIMAL:

Actually I might keep this in mind for the future. I don't see anything there currently that I have been wanting but those are some amazing prices!

I bet Hoist and I are related

As far as what you posted, no clue. I've just noticed a bunch of mine and well everyone's stuff is missing. Oh well....

I have no recommendations for that group you're watching. I have MP G2 SS; cool fig, I'd recommend that mold.

Glad the site is back up. Anyhow...

Who wants to celebrate the 30 year anniversary of the 1986 TF movie?!?

I did this drawing in my spare time.

Heck ya!

I am so excited about completing my season 3 guys!

Update on the list. I passed on Cannonball, but no one bid anyway. I also let Titanium Prime go since I really didn't have any particular reason to want him. Wheeljack ends in 18 hours and has one bid. Hot shot, Tracks, Treadbolt and Gigatron have no bids. I don't think I'm gonna get Sides cause he already has a high price in bidding, and roadrage got too high. Sigh. :MAXIMAL:

Aww yeah. Also it is a high possibility that Sideswipe may have been a knockoff. I generally don't trust Ebay when it comes to MPs.

He doesn't have his swords, but the rest of him is there, and I am very excited to have my first 6-changer :MAXIMAL:

NOTHING OF INTEREST?!

:-(

Thanks for the plug, Cobotron ;)^

For my two cents on the list of things to buy..get MP Wheeljack. Sideswipe and Road Rage pale in comparison. I got Wheeljack and Sideswipe at the same time and if I had to do it again I would've picked someone else to go with Wheeljack, that's how good he is.

Congrats on the Gigatron D!

RR and SS both outpaced my allowances towards price, so I had to let them go. I let Jackie go too as he got a bit too high. But I'm still watching Tracks!

And I did look at your list Cram, just nothing that I really wanted or needed

But Gigatron is so welcome and I am so looking forward to him. Tracks may be the only one left on here that I may get :MAXIMAL:

That's a cool looking figure, what kind of frightening nightmare does it turn into?

Not just one frightening nightmare, but SIX frightening nightmares!!

Also, nice shot Cobotron! He looks more deadly than I remember :lol:

Since that is technically Devil Gigatron, that means he has TEN frightening nightmares (maybe eleven if you count the ostrich).

And Cobs, that is an awesome picture! :MAXIMAL:
