My significant other of almost 15 years is extremely supportive of my Transformer love, especially when it comes to my collection. I've been told, "If you want it, buy it now, otherwise I'll just be paying more for it when you want it later." When we were dating, "Beast Wars" was one of our favorite shows to watch together. He knew enough of the G1 series to keep up with me at the time, and now he knows more about Transformers then he probably ever cared to. I'm very fortunate to have someone who not only puts up with my Transformer room, but enjoys it as well. I have a 16 yr old Daughter who has become a Transformer fan in her own right, but likes to kid me about my collection, she thinks I have too many...

I know how it is before we had kids i had a toy/game room it was great. But as we have moved and got more kids i have had to give a lot of my toys away because of room. And finances i want to collect but sometimes i just can't see spending money on the toys. that is why i cannot wait until my kids are old enough and want to play with them. My wife is okay with it but again the money thing we have talked and i agree. But i was able to keep one box of toys so i still live through this website.

These may seem obvious now, but:
What do you think of Takara releasing yet another Masterpiece Optimus Prime figure?
Which Masterpiece would you say was the best executed?
Which characters would you like to see masterpiece versions of in the future?

a few qs:
1.what do you think of the future of the transformers toy line (approx 20 years into the future)?
cuase i would think most of the generations of that time will pay homage to the movieverse.
2.who do you think should be some of the characters to vote for in NEXT years hall of fame polls?

Re: Ask the Twincast
Hey gang, big fan of the podcast.
What I would like to know is what you guys think is a good starting point for collecting Japanese g1's.
My US and UK G1 collection is nearing its end and after years of collecting Im quite happy with the condition of all my figs. After years of putting it off I finally got around to watching the Japanese headmaster series and am really keen on trying to pick up a Raiden.
I can spot a US G1 re-issue, bootleg or KO from a mile away but Im completely lost when it comes to Japanese TFs. Is there a guide or handbook of some sort out there? Ive tried searching various sites but cant find a thing.
Would love to hear your thoughts. Thanks for your time.

would you watch a beast wars continuety. note: it is written by the same people from the original beast wars, with a story line that COMPLETELY ignores anything that happened in beast machines, all characters return (exlude characters that were only in beast machines),yes even dinobot and the rest of the dead bots, with their original voice actors, the cgi is updated, the story line still envolves the ark and the rest of the g1 cameos, and all characters have similar looking but still original models.
Now would you watch it if the maximals and predacons transformed into wait for it...

When Ryan buys a third party figure its because he is interested or just because the people want too see his photos?

*Should Waspinator and Soundwave get their own Generations/Classics toys? Why or why not?
*FIRRIB or FIBRIR? Choose wisely...
*Did the RTS brand fail because of the name or the quality of the toys?
And a personal favorite since the 6th grade...
*Should there be Halo crossovers (ex. Master Chief = Warthog, Grunt = Ghost)? Why or why not?
*FIRRIB or FIBRIR? Choose wisely...

Godomus Bits wrote::-? Unusual question but regardless.
The year is 2015, you wake up from a cryosleep to realize you've survived the events of 2012 and stumble into a decimated world where you're forced to fend for yourself. After finding food,supplies and setting up a strong hold you stumble across a toys'r'us or a pawn store. What transformer do you shed a tear when you find him/her in the remains of a shattered humanity?
Now know, I don't think anythings happening this is just for fun.
That said,mine?
Best case - Original g1 (any mold) Prime (Hope)
Worst case - Any Wheelie (Doom)
Best. Question. EVER.



My answer;
Good - The new Masterpiece toy they're coming up with.
Bad - any Marvel/Star Wars Crossover figure. They're just terrible to me.

(I know this is for the Twincast members, but I resisit answering this. Stuff like this attracts me like kids to a candy store.)

do you think the new transformers universe game should combine multiple tf universes or just the prime cartoon world?
