Not only am i interested to hear how Artfire made Shajaki's top 3 (which I can see why, hot damn he is fine) but I'll be curious to see which of Primal, Artfire, or Nightstick become Cobo's top pick from that haul!

You guys make it seem like it's front page news :lol:

Top 3 (In no specific order, why would you make me choose YOU MONSTE... *ahem*):
-Artfire
-Hotrod
-Primal

Expanding it to 10:
-Blue Blue
-Ratchet
-Acid Storm
-(T) Sunstorm
-Thrust
-Black Rodimus Convoy
-Soundblaster

Also.... I got something coming in the mail. It's a different flavor of something that I recently got, and if they're anything alike he'll be knocking Primal out of that #3 spot :shock:

LET THE SPECULATION BEGIN

That was my first thought too, but I'm not sure. :-?

Do they have Taco Bell in Canada?

Woah, no MP-10 or any of his recolours on that list? :shock:

From what I heard he was perfect. Perfect enough for you to buy, like, a billion of them

News Credits: 293 · by **shajaki** » Tue Jun 20, 2017 5:17 pm

All of y'all, swing and a miss! Including any sort of Cutless Supreme

Yes we do have Taco Bell. But we also have the vastly superior Taco Time ;)^

Naw, that's just what you get when you're a consumer whore :lol:

And that got me thinkin... yeah... no MP10's. I mean, I like him sure. But I'm also pretty friggin tired of him :lol:

News Credits: 41 · by **Cobotron** » Tue Jun 20, 2017 5:23 pm

Most anything is vastly superior to Taco Bell. :lol:

Well you stumped me Jak. It's an MP though right?
What MP do you not have that could be better than the ones you have?
What MP do you not have? :shock:

Is it weird that while I despise MP Inferno with a burning passion, and just barely tolerate Grapple, I find Artfire very attractive?

News Credits: 41 · by **Cobotron** » Tue Jun 20, 2017 6:02 pm

I don't find that weird at all.
What is it about Artfire that trumps the others?

by **robotcaveman** » Tue Jun 20, 2017 6:14 pm

I have my collection very organized. I have two bookshelves, one holding all Autobots, & the other holding all Decepticons. The collection is divided in my top three favorite lines: Prime, Generations, and Movie universe. I have a very strict money-saving limit of getting only deluxe, voyager, and Titan class. I'd show pictures, but I'm new around here & I don't know how to get something from my photos onto here?!

I think it might be the colour scheme. Grapple and Inferno use their primary colour to obscene amounts, but Artfire uses both red and white equally in his colour scheme leading to a better design. Add onto that the toy-accurate tamograph recreations and you've pretty much fixed the Inferno mold's problem of looking very flat and monotone.

Hot Rod, eh, shaj? He looks G1 PERFECT!

The fact he comes with a fishing rod is a big WIN.

Well hey there robotcaveman! Welcome to Seibertron!

The best way to share photos here is to start an account on an image hosting website. They are free to an extent, or you can pay for an upgraded account with more storage, but I haven't found that to be necasary and I've posted A LOT of pictures.
The two most popular image hosts are photobucket and imgur. I use photobucket, but the site has been a little wonky lately. Once you upload your photos to the host site you can copy links to embed in your posts.

To do that. When posting you will see a row of buttons above the text field where you type. those are called tags. To link a photo, you use the Img tag, which looks like this,[img].[/img] (Pay no attention to the period. It's just there so you can see the tag.) You then simply copy and paste the link from your host site in between the brackets in that tag.

If you hit the quote button in the top corner of this post, you can see what the tag and link look like on the photo I've posted.

Give it a try! Feel free to start your own collection thread. We'd all love to see it!

And again, welcome to Seibertron! ;)^

Both those toys in the pic have awkward arms! :lol:

That transformation is really nothing new. Just with better legs, really.

His paint man, it is perfect. The paint makes up for the flatness. and he oozes grandness and Japanese spirit
