GIIIIRLS!

I have both Victorion and Roadrage. LOVE THEM!

BTW, here's a few pointers. RR's head, like Tracks, dont tab anywhere. It just float there. Still the joint is tight so it's not an issue. You can mistransform the back to make it less hollow. RR's reprolabels are very nice and I recommend them:

As for Vicky, the hands can store inside the feet when in vehicle or individual bots mode. The feet also make some very nice flight stands for the helicopters.

Both Road Rage and Victorion are great additions to a fembot collection. I do hope you have at least Prime RID Arcee and Generations/Legend Arcee?

I don't have any version of TFP Arcee though I do want her; I do have her retool into Chromia though which I'm a big fan of.
I got Legends Arcee months ago because she was on sale. ... she's the Transformers purchase I regret the most. I don't like the colours (I know they're cartoon accurate but that is way too much pink and the face is creepy as all heck; that lipstick makes her look like some really creepy doll), and I've since found I don't like any version of Arcee beyond TFA where she didn't get the chance to have a character to dislike and TFP where she was so different so might as well have been called Chromia.
But enough ranting, this is a happy thread. I do hope to get more fembots in the future... right now my holy grail in terms of that is Botcon Knights vs. Pirates Flamewar and Flareup. Both of them look incredible but expensive

I bought Flamewars at a reasonable price when it was the time and I don't regret it. The mold is great and those colors are PERFECT!

As for Arcee, I got the Generations. I love the black on her, making her unique. Because I already had my "G1 Arcee" for a while:

WOAH! The price have increased quite a bit! I remember paying 120$CAN shipped years ago.

This guy must have hitched a ride on my pants leg today after visiting the local TRU.

Pardon me pal, but that Paralon is a pretty petulant purple people eater patrolling your PC.
Peculiar parts-forming pincers? Preposterous!

I don't even know where to begin.

Pat can I have a "P"?

[fenrir72]

Fortmax and the rest of the Hm (Takara versions) on the way from amiami

(my Broadcast's box is said to be damaged from Takara but the contents are okay according to a headsup email from amiami and the CAN'T get a replacement stock anymore seems like the boombox man is all sold out so I have no choice but to accept him, warts and all)

AWESOME!

Or maybe... GNAWSOME?

[william-james88]

Got some fun stuff but I will savour it throughout the week. For now, I will show you one of the coolest things: a complete galaxy force Live Convoy. Thats the Takara version of Cybertron Evac and one of the minor extra decos is that they painted the yellow around the cockpit so that its all uniform teal.



The best part is that I got it for $11.50 US

[RAR]

Isn't he called "Live Convoy" rather than "Life Convoy" ?

That is beautiful. The Cybertron toys were my childhood so one day I kinda wanna track down and buy a ton of them

Funny thing is though, I actually want the Universe Blades redeco of this guy. Kinda fits Blades imo.

You son of a ...... AWESOME!

Honestly, your Blueblue is much nicer. The decal type tampo's are quite nice, the silver is nice, but the blue plastic feels flat. I dunno why, but it pictured in my head like your custom. That blue was so purdy

[william-james88]

You son of a ...... AWESOME!

Reffering to Shajaki's haul, or mine?

Another day in my week of hauls, here are some classics figures I never had before. many thanks to a fellow board member for having helped me get most of these

[D-Maximal_Primal]

My walmart had a battered Scattershot that's been sitting on the shelves since Onslaught was bought all the way back in March. Literally, parts seem to be missing, his ties are severed and gone, his collector card is gone, he's mistransformed, and I'm pretty sure the Betatron head was damaged.

I tried to get him, save him from the Scrapyard and also make room for TR stuff (they still only have wave 1 stuff and they just fully restocked with Wave 1 and 2 minicons from 2015!!). Despite the damage, they refused to give me more than a 10% discount, and they would not price match Amazon or anything other than walmart.com.

Very sad. I wanted to save him. Stingy walmart.

I was referring to Shak's Bluestreak, but both your hauls are pretty awesome. You know how I feel about that Evac mold and his Microman-esque wings.
I didn't realize you didn't already have Classics Bee.

Awesome haul WJ! I only have Sideswipe and Hound out of all those but I can guarantee you'll love them.

[william-james88]

Ironhidensh?

Yup

Awesome haul WJ! I only have Sideswipe and Hound out of all those but I can guarantee you'll love them.

I do like them. Its really fun to now have both Sunstreaker and Sideswipe so that the mold can enjoyed to its fullest. Currently making a list of best tf car molds ever and I feel like replacing Prime Wheeljack with this mold simply because its so innovative in what it accomplishes.

Bee is geat because the headsculpt is perfect (its my favourite Bee headsculpt, and I have the MP) and because he ends up being a nice height even though he is also a deluxe. Like that his car mode scales well with others when they are in alt mode and his robot mode can still scale well enough in a classics collection.

Hound is super cute. They made his face all innocent fo some reason. The Jeep mode is better than the CW Hound we got and his transformation is more interesting (especialyl with the seats and open dashboard area), but I do preffer the robot mode of the CW version so that's the one I would use for poses. It's taller too.

Yup

i knew it. you had a bunch on hold from him

Hmmmm... so which Bumblebee are you using as your "definitive" Bumblebee? I'm curious because he is my all time favorite character (only the G1 version-I don't like any other version of Bee). I have the MP version which I thought was perfect but if the classics is better than I'll have to grab one.

[Sjeng]

My C.W. Defensor with deluxe groove and perfect effect kit arrived! Can't wait for the workday to end!
Pictures sooooon

And tomorrow I'm picking up TR Hardhead, Skullsmasher and Blurr with CW Rook (for my white BC O/P combiner).
*excited!*

It's not quite a matter of what's better, but rather what your preference is - both are great for what they are.
If you like a more modernised Bumblebee with a new alt-mode and different styling yet is unmistakably just the G1 character - yet updated and upgraded - go for Classics. If you want an exact to the letter representation of how he looked on the cartoon, go Masterpiece. Both are around the same size and both are great toys so you can't go wrong with either.

I use different Bees for different aestehtics. For the MP toys, I use MP Bee, but for the classics, I will use classics Bee. The best Bumblebee toy out there is still the MP of course (if I was to ake a top 5 list) but the classics would be on the list too.

[D-Maximal_Primal]

I love my Classics Bee. He is a really fun mold and he's a joy to play with. He is my favorite Bee that I own.
