1 hour. 5 Walgreens. 1 Ratchet and friend.

Had I driven the Walgreens loop in the opposite direction, I would have nabbed these at the first stop! :lol:

As is the way of the hunt.

Siege Civil Defense Team!!!

Central Command: We have a Seeker Squadron in bound. Sector R227-b.
Prowl: We're on it!

Red Alert: We're in the right place but where are....

... LOOK OUT!

Pew! Pew! PEW! Swooooooooooosh

Prowl: Errrrrn!
Ratchet: I gotcha, Ol' Buddy!

Prowl: We must pursue.... SPAWN OF A GLITCH!
Ratchet: Now don't play tuff guy here, Prowl. Don't kid yerself!
That null ray clipped you something fierce!
Red Alert: Command, We're making a field repair.

Red Alert: Hang in there, Capt'n! The Doc will have you welded up in no time

It's very civil of Starscream and Skywarp to just stand to the side and let Ratchet fix Prowl :lol:

Great pics Cobo!

I didn't know spooning repaired Transformers? Well that explains why mine are all in such great condition!

Question: is Ratchet's chest by design or a typo? I can't decide how I like it better, looks better on Ratchet flush.

Edit: @Zero, hahahaha I just saw the Seekers just chilling on the sidelines :lol:

I don't understand your question, Cary. Typo? Chest? Did I do something wrong with it? Mistransform?

Well guys, the desk is getting rather crowded, so everyone has to get in line for their turn on the photo stage.
Impactor seems to think he can cut too.

Yes, the chest flap is mistransformed. I'm asking if that was on purpose, but now I have my answer. I go back and forth on that. Up like that looks cleaner, but it's a little bit in the way of the face. Ratchet looks better like that to me and will differentiate him more from Ironhide.

This...

Vs...

And that's when the team in charge of Generations Selects started rubbing their hands, knowing full well that Sunstreaker was on the way

I would actually be surprised if we got a Sunstreaker without a Cordon repaint... unless we get Spinout

I would recommend staying away from "Spinout".

I hope Earthrise has a Sunstreaker I can upgrade to, I'm not a fan of CW Sunstreaker. I could see a Selects Cordon happening. Selects is a pretty cool line and let's us get all the things ;)^

I was actually talking about the red diaclone Sunstreaker.

I hope we get a good Sunstreaker, we need one with the proper transformation scheme

I hope they don't go the lazy route and spray paint Wheeljack yellow.

The easy bet here is Clampdown, as he is always the Swipe/Alert body type. And yes I would buy that.

But I also hope that we get a new own-mold Sunstreaker.
And then of course I would buy a Cordon version too.

'Cause Ima sucka!

I finally found one yesterday after about 5 days of stopping after work, out of my way on top of it. The feeling of finally finding one and the relief of not having to hunt for it anymore are great. :lol:

Great collection Cobotron, I enjoyed the battle scene stlye setup. ;)^

I like that name Z! ;)^

I have been hustling around town hitting every Walmart to see if I can score a Bluestreak for my Brother who lives in a no Walmart zone.
No luck on that front yet, but I did find these!

Barricade looks SO dope!

I received Diaclone Trivers Tridasher almost 2 weeks ago, and finally had the time to really dig into him.

Here he (It) is in action.

Yay! My first Ladynaut!

Pilot harness is a cool little detail.

Machine Mode

Waruder invaders detected at perimeter 7-1B

Target acquired!

Convert to Final Battle Maneuver Mode!

There are a few other fun modes, but I got too caught up in playing with this awesome robot mold. Great toy, cool conversion into vehicle and back. Really good articulation makes it fun to pose and play with. If Diabattles is comparable in size to a Voyager Class Transformer, then Tridasher is on par with a large Deluxe.

This Mech is super rad! Really excited for the other two Trivers now.

Oh, and D-Max, there's a lil sumpin' sumpin' in here just for you buddy!
