I've been watching that movie more than half my life, and I don't remember what your talking about, darn it!

And where's a proper MP Springer, or Kup, or Blurr, or Arcee, and I don't care what anyone says it is Spike that came with MP Bumblebee

These will come eventually. The MP line is all about paitience. As mothra forking bad as it sucks, it's all about waiting...like a ninja... in a tree... in the dark...waitng.

I'd like to see a Hot Rod. Like pre-matrix Rod. Just car size.

WHAT?! Where he's blown apart by the Sweeps on Junkion?! PIECES EVERYWHERE LIKE A JIGSAW PUZZLE!! Or "Ultimetal" Ultra Magnus can do it

Now I can see it. Thanks!
You could always take a screwdriver to your MP Mags, and achieve that mode.

How did you have two?

I'd be SO down for that. It might not be out of the realm of possibility either, what with the line rebooted with MP10.

Luck apparently, I was going through my toys the other day and I said "Hold up!! Waitaminute!!" The Constructicons are in pretty bad shape. I played with them so hard

That's actually what I've been using my Alternators Rodimus as. He really needs the wing though.

Ah ninjas, you'll never see them until it's too late

I'd prefer "button activated" explosion, it's the new MechTech!!

Cobs, I was quite taken aback by this when I first read it...I totally itscram (but out loud): Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat!

Then I read further on and saw that you did indeed remember, whew, crisis averted. I was afraid the TF police were gonna come to your house and take away your card! LOL

I was on my way Donny, then I realized I didn't have a police livery Datsun 280z to drive, or any authority otherwise

So. Anything new? Should I pick stuff up at TRU tomorrow or not? If they have a full Superion with everyone's favorite Aerialbot Alpha Bravo, I just don't think I'll be able to pass it up a third time :lol in other news, I'm pretty sure the store I'm going to HAD Devastator in stock and no longer does. All in 8 hours.

First and foremost you should probably grab Devitron!
As far as CW goes I think you should get Cyclounus and the Stunticons.
There all good. Superion is great fun. Go NUTS with that coupon you have.

itscramlicous wrote:So. Anything new?

Naw. Just coasting right now. I am patiently waiting for it to start raining pre-orders from Japan. So last night I pulled down Gen Leader Jetfire, CW Leader Megatron, MP Magnus, and watched The Hobbit B5A. Good night. The 9 month old slept well for a change. Daddy got to play!
As I was tfing Mags, I realized I'd left Spike and Danny in the cab. So awesome you can tf that guy with them in there.
I fiddled with Jetsy 'cause I'm still fence riding with the CW leader Seekers. I love both modes of that toy. He is an awesome action figure, but I do not like his transformation.

I also deconstructed this Ultra Prime confab...

and recombined Defensor.

Cramjam, here's some photos of Combiner Wars stuff. Some food for thought. If you're hungry.

Great scene! But that outdoor space, I just want to exist there. It just looks lovely. My robuddies would melt if I took them outside.

You are welcome to come play robits in my back yard anytime.

GOOD NEWS!! Got Devy!! Pics later!!

Congrats! Itscram! Hope you are lovin' him all to pieces.

Thanks Donny, the figures are huge!! In hand they are awesome!! Completely worth it.

Nice Cram!

Thanks coBRO :lol

You wheeled him home in the stroller!?! Hope you didn't leave the kid at TRU.

I think he looks so good along side MPs. I'm a little on the fence about where he'll go. All my shelves are short on Cons but the MPs are the worst.

Sooooooooooooooooo, how do you like him?

I thought the fans would enjoy the stroller pic, my little one was not left behind

Considering I'm shifting my collecting, he fits with my Decepticon MPs. I think I pointed out in the Devastator forum that the only "MP" thing he doesn't have going for him is translucent windows on the figures. That and/or die-cast (and MAYBE hand articulation) are what seem to make MP MP.

Having said those things..

HE'S AMAZING!! I transformed him all by myself into all modes! My complaint is the wrist doesn't hold in the forearm that great. I'll also be getting the PE kit (especially since I only paid $127 after tax) so that'll fix that!!

Very cool IcecramSundee! I'm glad you're happy.
Of course he isn't up to snuff with the quality and intensity of MPs. He was never meant to be, but if you think he works and looks cool doing it, then by all means.
Don't let anybody tell you how to play with your toys. It's your little world of imagination and adventure, and only YOU know how the story ends.

Thanks Cobs

Here his is compared to his predecessor!!


I know these shots are everywhere but SERIOUSLY!! Look at the difference in size!! It's CRAZYAWESOMETOWN!!

Everyone visiting the Collect-o-tron, do yourself a favor and BUY DEVASTATOR!! All he wants to do is devastate, and let you know to prepare for termination while nothing can stop his might. That's all he wants to do.

ROAD TRIP!!!! Who's in?

You're not making the wait any easier

Some really good things are about to happen in the Collect-O-Tron!

Just finished #2 of these two shelving upgrades, and a new exhibit is under construction.

Looks like enough room for DEVASTATOR!!

Ooooooh pretty.
