If you don't pay too much, sure they are awesome. I have the japanese versus packs with the predator planes, but those were really expensive. :?

Boss is the blue one that looks a little like the old style batmobile if i remmber correctly. I loved the turbomasters and the predators as a kid. There were some great molds from that bunch its a shame only the larger fiures have seen re-release.

Does europe have diffrnt laws when it comes to spring loaded projectiles? - the missile launchers on these guys were small and compact and usually created an engine in robot mode. Everytime any mold from this line has came out in macine wars or universe they usually have the missile launching features removed. Makes sense that they havent reusedthe smaller molds as the misile launchers were the main feature of the toy but is this because of recent changes in the laws or regional differnces as this whole line was released exclusively in europe origonally?

I remember them. I had Hurricane and Flash. They had spring loaded missiles, but they were pretty weak, almost skids like.

I have all the Turbomasters and Predators. They are cool little transformers! A little pricy, but worth adding to your collection if you're a serious transformers collector!

Then you had faulty firing mechanisms.

Turbomasters/Predators have the 2nd strongest firepower of any transformers figures (Attacktix are #1). They were even banned from the US and Canada because of their firepower.

Boss is indeed the Blue Turbomaster, quite agood figures, even if a little blocky. He's no Flash (see my sig) but he is the next best car Turbomaster.

Getting the Car Turbomasters is fairly easy, try getting your hands on a good condition Rotorstorm or Thunderclash!

I would love to pick up some of these figures, but I never seem to find them when I can actually purchase them.
