Is that sarcasm? It's difficult to tell over the 'net.

No sarcsasm. We need a US released repaint of that mold. It's a good mold and we haven't had one. Universe would be a good place to put it.

Ah. Just that there was the R.I.D. reissue of the mold, not to mention the Beast Wars Second and Robot Masters versions. Good mold, but I wouldn't have said it was that difficult to get hold of.

Seriously, what kind of idiotic notion is that? Repaints are just Hasbro's lazy way of coining a mold for all it's worth. Really, TheSeekerJets, if you were a true fan you'd be outraged.


This is from someone who's handle is AutobotCars calling someone called TheSeekerJets idiotic for supporting repaints.

Irony, thy name is Message Board.



I love you Emperor Galvatron. Long live the Emperor.

I know...I know...it's embarrasing you say. I don't have ALL the repaints in this pic:

but since I took the picture...I bought the rest!. Go me!


I only wish I had as many Armada Prime repaints. And a Brave Maximus.
And a bendy Prime.

Once again, I salute you CP, for showing me what I can one day acheive.
