Terrorsaur?

Sorry, not him. He is more G1 and clunky than that, and has beast mode head, legs , and wings haning off as kibble.

Cutthroat?

Found this part on the floor next to my gallery setup. I'm stumped!

Those teeth look similar to the Gear of War 2 set by iGear, though I don't recall a yellow set, I'll have to look when I get home.

Transformerland yielded no results, so it must be a part from another toy line.

It shouldn't be ... the only things I collect are Transformers, Battle Beasts and new Masters of the Universe Classics toys.

Simply put, Battle Beasts is a series of small figures of animals in armor. Their gimmick was centered around their heat-sensitive rub-signs, which revealed either a piece of wood, water, or fire. That's for a game based on rock-paper-scissors:

Wood blocks water
Water extinguishes fire
Fire burns wood

In Japan, they were integrated into Transformers and were even featured in an episode of The Headmasters cartoon.

I've had this for a while now and have absolutely no clue what it goes to:

The second picture shows how the piece extends.

That yellow pipe like thing is from Rampage that forms Supreme Devastator. It's one of his simulated hydralyics. I actually glued mine on cause they popped off so much!

Indeed it is, I thought it looked familiar, I just couldn't put my finger on it.

Do you collect other toy lines besides Transformers?

Definitely. However, I originally found this piece in a baggie full of parts years ago. I know it never came off a toy I had as a younger kid.

Sun Jun 13, 2010 9:20 am

I know what it is, Tirade, but I can't for the life of me remember what they're called. It's from a robot whose vehicle mode was a crane, and you have to take them apart and reassemble them to transform them. Probably had either a pull back and let go motor or a friction based one in the wheels too. It also came in yellow and red.

I once had all the specs and stats for my collection, but you know how parents can be during a move....
Anyhow, I was just wondering if anyone can tel me who this is. It has the Takara/Hasbro copyrights under the wing dated 1994

After I finish school I should be able to start shooting my modest collection. Please forgive my bad shooting skills, I'm better with distance photography.

Thanks. Even though i think Huntmeister is a better fit, as that's what I've been calling it. [Images removed, for streamlinity.]

I have more TF's whose names are unknown to me. but I have not found them in the galleries. so I post here for attempted identification.

these two are from same line. Certain parts changed color when hit with water. That ability has since gone; but still.

and lastly a gecko thing from the Beast Machines line.

Wed Aug 18, 2010 9:47 pm

First of all, for full figures, this is the easiest place to identify TF's:

http://www.tfu.info/ID/index.htm

Second, those are (top to bottom):

Gobots: http://www.tfu.info/1993/Autobot/Gobots/gobots.htm (Yes, his name is Gobots)

Drench: http://www.tfu.info/1993/Autobot/Drench/drench.htm

and

Geckobot: http://www.tfu.info/2000/Maximal/Geckobot/geckobot.htm

Thu Aug 19, 2010 10:54 pm

Ok thanks for link and id's. That will help make getting id tags for my gallery much easier.

as Transformers canon. Silly question, but how much time does a single photoshoot take for a single gallery, The button doesn't even go in.

Also depends on the camera to be used, location, lighting, model... ect. some are very picky.

If anyone still remebers i found out it was one of those poundland thingies. Probably "super mega ready dinasour-o-bot warrior" or something. Also, I NEED YOUR PARTS!...
#-o

that is... of G1 metroplex...
I basically have the, head, shoulders, and sort of the arms, but only body, no parts/accsesories
Oh yeah and thanks for the battle beasts explanation, they seem kind of ... pointless...

Not too sure if this should go here, or else where, but why does BW TIgerhawk have wheels on his wings, and what appears to be a cockpit on his right shoulder?
