Wow, Cobo's deal for $50 at Toyarena.com is NOICE

The Korean releases of those BW figs are great. Exact same quality as the Japanese ones. I actually have a few. And some of the Microman stuff from the same era. To be honest. they are so samsie. I can't remember who is and who isn't a Sono King. release.

Bod, you wrote something before but edited it out about multiple modes. Black Big was always good enough, but when I saw Ultra Mammoth, I couldn't resist. I think that is the smartest repaint the club ever did. The tusks in place of shoulder stacks is brilliant., and adding a Magnus to the BW line up was an instant sell. So now I DO have two. ;)^

and now he and Ape Prime can roll together!

WELL FART!

Sorry I didn't think to tell you sooner.

FYI toyarena's shipping is kinda pricey.

Sometimes it pays to buy a few things at a time from them.
Shipping gets cheaper the bigger your order gets.

I thought shipping might be a factor, but yeah, I'd have to pile it on if I were buying from toyarena.

I did notice while on the BeastQuest that the figures from the Korean release were much cheaper! Did BW flop over there, resulting in liquidations? I can only assume so.

Ultra Mammoth really does look cool -- I definitely need one of those molds in my life, and it must be Black Big Baller Convoy.

No worries about Heinraddo, Cobro. I could've hunted around a bit more. But seeing him MISB for $24 was like a quick jab to the autoballs! ;p

And sorry for the multi-edits -- phone browsing is not optimal for me when pontificating about TFs!

AG!

Is this your first time in the Collect-O-Tron? Or have you been lurking all along?

Ooooooor, have you posted before and I'm just too much of a ding-a-ling to remember? :lol:

Anyway, what up man! Got some fellers over here thinking about pulling some mammoth wool, so your in the right place. :lol:

TOO MANY FLOPPIES :shock:

And speakin' of da bears, is Chainclaw the only grizzly, including all flavors of Transformers Beasts? Kinda hard to believe, if that's the case.

: Letz PRETEND

But back to cojones, only Heinrad has dem.

Well, there's the Polar Claw mold.

Transformers Beast Wars Polar Claw (White Claw) Gallery
The brown one is a club repaint called Grizzly-1.
The Grey one is a BWNeo repaint that came in a two pack with Killerpunch, called Survive!
That's the one I have.

Transformers Beast Wars Neo Survive Gallery
The mold comes with the funky awesome 2 head gimmick. Check out how survive's is painted almost like he's a dude wearing a helmet.

Click those links for further exploration into bear country. ;)^

That bloody spring mechanism ...

News Credits: 3 · by **bodrock** » Wed Jan 17, 2018 10:15 pm

Oh snap, I totally forgot about Polar Claw!

But wow, 2-pack for the win there, Cobo. "Survive" is a hilariously awesome name to me, and dat headsculpt is even better -- like when you tell a little kid to smile and it's all teef. :-D

I'm convinced Beast Wars Neo shoulda gotten a lot more love, and they should've brought more of them molds to North America.

Oh, one thing the guy who sold me Heinraddo threw in, was a BWNeo catalogue! I'm sure you got some printed copies yourself, but I took pics to share just in case (it's the first time I've actually looked at it lol).

: Front

: Back

I'll keep an eye out for that 2-pack with KillerPunch (also an AWESOME name).

Yeah, I mostly lurk these days. I'm pretty sure I commented here, but it might have been years/several hundred pages ago for all I remember...

Besides, if I didn't lurk, look what I would have missed! (Indeed, I pretty much daily get a laugh from this community. Saves many a hectic day for me.

)

I picked up the Target Universe Nemesis exclusive on clearance. I'd feel pretty crappy about fleecing anyone here on it. And I have considered keeping him and finally opening him. But, though I've moved to a new, bigger house, I need room. And I had no idea a sealed version was going for $150.

Okay, enough of my interrupting of the conversation flow. Let's get back to talking about Burn's mammoth snout flopping... :-s

(I think I've got that polar bear in my beast wars stuff....need to do more unpacking.)

Those catalogues are dope, Bod! I think I do have some in the file cabinet. ;)^

I kinda forgot Neo was such a weird mash-up. With dump trucks and shtuff.

:lol:

I forgot about Polar Claw's grill!

Burn. Spring loaded. You talking about the bat?

Yep, same with Scorponok. Those little spring loaded buddies of theirs were pains.

I may be coming in late and have missed something, but that catalog actually displays Beast Wars II characters and molds. In my opinion, the Beast Wars Neo figures (like Heinrad) actually look better than the Beast Wars II figures, despite how many of the Beast Wars II figures I have. :lol:

I agree with you. I wish they would bring more of these molds over.

News Credits: 41 · by **Cobotron** » Wed Jan 17, 2018 11:36 pm

It's raining lurkers! :lol:

What's up Wings!

I too agree. More domestic releases would have been nice.
I think the problem was that we were already moved on to Beast Machines at the time, and they couldn't figure out how to shoe horn the likes of a horse, a cobra, a rabbit, etc., with realistic sculpts.

They triceratops horned all the dinos in! Because kids will buy anything DINOSAURS! :lol:

I've been spotted :shock:

!

Ironically, I don't have any of the dinosaur molds yet

Almost done with the combiners, though, and getting the others as I find good deals. How many beast era toys do you have now? Again, I'm a bit late in the thread, so I'm sure I missed quite a lot in 189 pages :lol:

Apologies if you've already mentioned this!

That Triceratops is a pretty nice find! May you find many more dinosaurs wandering into your collection, which I'm sure is absurdly bigger than my own :BOWDOWN:

Oh, wow! I like the repaint on Big Convoy! Is that an exclusive or a fan repaint? I was only aware of the normal version and the black version.

EDIT: I just went a few pages back. That is an impressive Beast Wars shelf! How long has it taken you to collect that? :shock:

News Credits: 3 · by **bodrock** » Thu Jan 18, 2018 12:13 am

You're totally right, Wingz! I hadn't taken a close look at that Prime, and it's in fact Lio Prime = BW2! Now I really wanna see the BWNeo catalogue to compare -- but I must admit of all the Japanese BW characters I've bought, they've all been from Neo.

And yeah, North America had already moved onto Beast Machines by the time BW2 & Neo came along....so they would have probably flopped here. I don't own any BM figures, but that'll change once Megahead Megatron arrives on the slow boat from Japan....
