I was reading the toy haul thread.
Bro. How is it that you, the DATSUN MASTER, gone this long without a G1 Smokesalot? :shock:

I may have to agree with shaj here. Why you no G1 Datsun?! Also, I feel the need to get back into the G1 reissues.. My new display format requires it!!

That and why not have G1s? I'm not crazy in thinking I'll get the OG1s, too much to invest for not enough gain. Some of my G1 guys need to be R&R'ed badly..

So congrats! I thought there was something else you were interested in that came I'm a window book box with multiple bots of the mini variety..?

Mmmmmmmmidunno? Just never had him. I do now! ;)^

Bluestreak was the only one we had as kids. I acquired Prowl later in life.
I also don't try to hard to back paddle on G1 stuff, but I felt the urge this time.

BROS! I'm home!

Man! It is great to see you guys. But dayum! You bros look like ****! :lol:

Say CHEEEEEEEESE.

So psyched to have this guy join the 'Tron. More excited than I thought I'd be. If for no other reason than he is still so fresh. Such a nice treat to re-experience my most favorite G1 mold after 30+ years with new tight joints and all his accessories. No scratched up paint. No broken wind shields. Densh must have barely handled this guy.

Ain't nobody dope as Screen. He's just so fresh and clean.
So fresh and so clean clean.

It's gettin' smokey up in here.

Great pics and a fun ride ;)^

Smokescreen's color are so vivid and just pop. That's a handsome group of bots you got there. I don't own a single SS, I need to fix that... :-?

Agreed, those look very nice. I also don't own a Smokescreen, or that G1 mold. I'm also starting to think I need to fix that...

Awesome shots Cobro!! Smokescreeeeeeeeen!!

Those dang Datsuns, so amazing!! Remember that time I found the listings for all the Bluestreak colors of Datsuns from that classic car dealer (Diaclone, toy, animation)? That was fun.

That was fun. I spotted a silver one at a few years ago at a car show.

I love how the Datsuns look. I wish I were able to get some. Some of the g1 toys are just awesome. The Predacons look amazing too.

There is a two tone biege and brown one that lives in my hood. SOOOOO 80's. Love it.

Now this I get. Platinum Preds are still out there Sill, and still on sale. Get them before they're gone.

Problem is, do I get them and skip out of some Titans Return stuff like Fort Max?

The latest one? Still need to see that.

No it was from the 1998 one. Basically the quote is from when the humans were piling up hundreds of fish as bait for Godzilla, and the main character guy said goofily "that's a lot of fish".

SillySpringer wrote:Problem is, do I get them and skip out of some Titans Return stuff like Fort Max?

EERRRRGGGGGG I dunno. I'd be fine about skipping out on ToyWorld Devastator though, so Preds and Max could replace him. 600$ is a lot anyway.

I've spotted SS at TJs a few times but keep passing on him. He looks pretty awesome, but I already have 4 figures with that mold, and don't really want a 5th. Now I'm tempted to hunt him down in that G1 mold.

Cobo - where'd you score him from?

Same here. Thankfully, I've managed to acquire all the Datsuns in CW form. Now to get MP Smokescreen and Bluestreak.

BB is correct. I think ol' Iron had a Bluestreak from the same Takara reissue series he was unloading. Might be worth reaching out to him for if you're interested.

Which one? The CW mold, or the MP mold? Because I have both, and I would honestly say that I like the CW version better.
