Noice.

Thank you! I may have some more pics up later today.

As soon as I get this deadline work sorted, I'll take some myself. Good lighting today.

Classics Mirage was one of the best updates of a G1 character at the time.

"Help Us!"

Edit: Nevermind, that's a frankenstein of different versions of the classics Mirage mold, isn't it? Well it just about makes a pretty good G2 Leadfoot just on its own that way, I think!

Sssssshhhhhhh, its a secret!

Probably stretching the definition of "Transformer" here a bit, but the VF-1 Valkyrie still counts, right? The 1/100th scale action figure was an awesome find some years ago (hence the yellowing plastic). It was a choice between this one and the one with the more triangular face. There was no "Jetfire" there, sadly. I chose this one because of the jolly roger! I feel I made the right choice.

Yo-ho!

My favorite Transformer, Devastator. ^ ^

Surprised that no 3P company has done a Cybertron Laserbeak yet.

Nice!

Best disguise ever or best disguise ever?


... ok, that uses a lot of Photoshop. The closest I could get without any cheating:




Shockwave does it a lot better

Great to see this guy back in these pages again with all the current Combiner Wars stuff happening.
I have a near mint *cough* reissue gift set of G1 Devy and the first release of the X-Transbots 'upgrade' set but the connector at the shoulders/head doesn't fit! Gotta love X-Transbots!!

I have the Constructions, but the parts I have to form Devastator all came from dollar store knock-offs. Not only that, but my Hook is the G2 yellow one because every time I find G1 Hook one of his legs is broken off, and it's always the same leg too!

So, I'd heard that PCC Mudslinger was brittle, and I could tell when I got the toy new that the plastic felt of a different quality than the normal transformers fare. I didn't think that he was quite so brittle as this though. I simply picked him up and casually went to transform him, then the leg snapped cleanly at the thigh, just above the knee joint. Irreparable unless I can get a whole new leg. Oh well, maybe I can spot one at a flea market or something.






At least I got a fun pic of Knock Out's quackery out of it!

That looks entirely repairable with super glue as long as the joint isn't too tight.

I suppose I could give it a shot. I might need a stronger brand of super glue though, the stuff I have doesn't seem to do the job for other things I've tried to fix anymore.

Gorilla Glue is amazing. It's how I fixed my PCC Leadfoot, who also suffers from some QC issues...though he can no longer be a torso or swivel his right bicep, he can still transform just fine.

I bought the CrazyDevy kit some years ago and it's expensive... but it's the best for G1 Devastator (or Encore obviously).

[Cyberpath]

I have a KO Devastator from years back on my shelf and been somethimes eying the "Junkion Blacksmith" upgrade-kit, but it's sold-out everywhere (and kinda expensive..)

Nice!

Thanks!

Hope this helps for the JB upgrade kit

Pretty much how I feel right now. Sigh.

After every set of 20 reviews, I gather up the figures I've reviewed and do a group shot. It used to be that the group shots would be cumulative, but as awesome as they looked, I couldn't keep doing that. WAY too many figures and not enough surface space. Anyway, here's a few pics I took for the last set of 20 I've done!

Check out the other group shots on my Twitter!

Time for fun stuff! I put my new Renderform stuff to use and played around with CW Megs. Pull up a seat

This weekend feels samey.

Man, Cannonball looks freaking awesome. Prime Ratchet is a pretty great mold.

And holy crap that shot of masked Jetfire...makes me want it... What parts on new on him?

Edit: That's the Takara version, right? Man those guns look so much better when they're not just doused in red chrome.

Hey, that's pretty nifty photoshopping!

Thank you! But hoping the price will go down when the new figure comes out.

I like it!
