The Energon Pub

yeah....we knew that was gonna happen.

and i don't hate it...................
but is still think it sucks

For those who don't know what he's talking about:



It's the Kiss version, but there's no word on an Alternator version just yet.

and miss the opportunity to sell more crap (i say that lovingly)
to us? yeah they will, i'd be very suprised if they didn't.

I love it sooo Much It's my new Sig

But I have Heard there will be an Alt Version Ether way since Tomy/Takara has abandoned Die cast on all future BT's

i like the repaint even the fishing rod, but does this mean Bt's are no more, i know the quality of them was going seriously down hill,


but i dont like the bta drivers it cant be too hard to make little articulated people

Actually, I think those drivers are [i]Bendies[/b](soft bodies with internasl wire skeletons), at least the one with Prime is. That ?Melissa? figure that comes with Prime (Convoy) can be put into different poses as evidenced in some of the pics Seibertorn.com had up.

like the BTA drivers, they are made up from several parts, so you can have a sitting pose and a standing pose

the thing that gets me about the bta 'drivers' is that they'd be about 3 foot tall.

Here is the pic I was referring to:



Found here:http://www.seibertron.com/news/view.php?id=7888 Now, to me, that looks like she could be a Bendy since I don?t see any joints. She looks like one solid piece.

Chances are the limbs dont have any visable hinges is due to the connecting points are were flesh meets clothing (plsatic of course).. aka standing legs connect at panty line, arms piviot at end of sleves, head at collar, etc. As much as I hope they're bendy, its VERY unlikly.

they have little notches at the joints where the connect.. sold my one bta driver to loqi.... i didnt really care for em much.. but they arent bendy , more like an old crash test dummy figure... piece them together at the joints

first, this picture is NOT from seibertron but from fantofan.jp, you canc learly see the watermark

second: you cannot see the 'joints' as these PVC figures do not have joints like regular action figures, there is a head, body, 2 sets of arms and 2 sets of legs that you can put together, like the BTA girls, these are too small to be a 'bendy'

thort id add a pic of alerts driver

Well, I got it from Seibertron.com. Where they got it from isn?t important.

I'm fine with it as long as he's not cast in that crap **Cough** Orange **Cough** plastic like Prime and Sideswipe

good luck. i'd have much preferred it if he came out first...
and mirage was the repaint.

i'm not personally sold on the mold
i'll buy it, i'll display it. and i'll damn hasbro for making me buy another repaint
oh well

Personally? (I know that they?ll never do it )? but I always thought that Hot Rod would look cool as the Pontiac Banshee. Basically it?s a conceptual/prototype car? but it kind of looks like the last Firebird with a different spoiler & lip. That would be cool!
