I kinda late on collecting some of 3rd party toys. I brought Defendor when it 1st came out n jus recently got the other 3rd party toy Annihilator and i want to purchased two new figures

My question is should I go with a clear Protector set cause my Rodimus look sad among my shelf or should i go with a Power Commander set since i miss out on City and Shadow.

As a bonus...I also cant decide to also get a United Jazz or Reveal the Shield Laser Prime for the future trailer in works

Hey dude good luck with your 3rd party decision. Just follow your gut instinct. As for the Hasbro part you should really get United Laser Prime even though he is a bit tough to find believe me it took long. But to choose between RTS Prime and United Jazz you would be smart in getting Jazz. Look at the images here on the site between RTS and United and they will tell the tale...good luck! :VEHI:

Thanx...I appreciate it. The thing is i want them all but my wallet says pick about 2 a month online and i scare I might miss my chance again next month if i pick one over the other.

Hasbro Laser Prime throw me off with it crazy mix match colors and till i can find a United one...I goin to get United Jazz cause I really is displeased with the RTS one i got.

I probably order tat and protector tonite since some of the sites is sold out of him already

also keep in mind you might want to save to money for some 4th quarter 2011 & 2012 3rd party TF toys like hexatro,CHMS G-1 ultra magnus,dinobots combiner,predaking combiner,the 2 devestator combiners. pcc transforming limbs,etc....

I know I know...my account is crying now of all the stuff that suppose to come out :sad:

. The reason I want the ugly color g2 prime is because of the trailer that maketoys suppose 2 produced in December. I have to sacrificed the devestator combiner(hopefully the 2nd one jus as good) for now in order for me to get everything else.... :BANG_HEAD:

I may get Not Mixmaster one just because of his weapons tho

United Jazz looks great, but honestly taking a metallic silver sharpie to RTS Jazz's wheels and grill does wonders! You're still missing a few paint apps, but I have both and had I done what I just mentioned before buying United, I may have just skipped it. Then with the money saved, order a set of reprolabels. But Laser Prime is a **** fig I'm not sure even the upcoming trailer can fix...

As for your FP question, do you have the regular Protector set? I don't really see much point in the clear one, personally. If you already have the regular one, I'd say go for something else. If you don't, get that and invest the other cash in the soon to be reissued Henkei Rodimus...assuming the only reason you don't already have Protector is you're missing a Classics or Henkei Rod.

funny that years ago i love to paint my gundam models with no problem but now i like blah when it comes to certain figures now a day cause i jus expect them to come out the factory looking pretty..*looking at DOTM Sideswipe*...

I got a classics rod and no i dont have a protector set. I saw Vangelus review on the crystal set and it didnt look bad on classic rod n will think of it "ghost armor" for him

Unless you have the clear Rodimus from the Sons of Cybertron set, pass on the clear armor. There are much better 3rd party products in the near future.

I would agree with this.

also un-less you have the henkei Deluxe hotrodimus. then their is no need to get the add-on that comes with the gold chrome clip on wings & targetmaster. un-less you want the targetmaster.
