So, two things, i'm new here, so if it turns out there was a specific place I would need to put this, tell me. Secondly, theres this toy I found in storage I had as a kid, and I cannot seem to find which one it is or what line it's from.

Being new here, I do not know how to post images. I will as soon as I know how to.

In any case, its pretty beat up, and I cant transform it completely. the entire hood/front side of it in car form is part of the left arm, which is very different. It's base color is white, and has a 24 on the top of it, and "Cybertron" going across the top of the windshield.

And like I said, tell me how, and I'll post some pictures. Thanks! :D

It is X-Brawn (Wild) from the Robots in Disguise line.

That's the figure, right?

Man it makes you feel old when somebody refers to RID or the AEC toys as ones they had as kids.

Luckily the car brothers from RiD are quite common and can be snagged for about 10-12$ apiece fairly easily. Happy hunting! :)

I was thinking the exact same thing!

After having collected Beast Wars, I remember seeing X-Brawn and the other Car Brothers for the first time and simply being blown away with how far TF design had come in regards to realistic alt modes.

One step forwards, two steps back #-o

But Armada had better-looking robot modes, IMO. And the Mini-Cons also made them superior. The only 3 figures that can't be f**ked with in RiD were Omega Prime (or 4 if you consider them apart) Brave Maximus and Black Convoy. (And maybe Rail Racer, but only in combined mode.)

I love, love, love that figure. Love the alt mode, love the bot mode, love the asymmetric transformation. It's so nice I bought it twice - I also have the silver repaint. Many times I've come close to buying the Ratchet repaint, as well.
