Transformers and More @ The Seibertron Store














Details subject to change. See listing for latest price and availability.
It is a misconception that the Machine Wars were not popular or a succes. Often the series is compared to how much it made. But Machine Wars was only sold in limited supply and only at specific stores. If you compare the line with overall toy-sales it seems to have done poorly. But if you look at the percentage of the line itself that got sold before disappearing into the discount pile, Machine Wars didn't do too bad.Raymond101 wrote:I know that these toys weren't very popular, but I am interested in at least looking at, and possibly buying, Megatron and Starscream. I checked out BigBadToys and they are sold out?? Wow. Anyway if any of you guys have these two figures, please tell me what you think of them. I once saw Megatron at Toyworld ages ago when I was younger, and I was shocked at how he was a basic, lol. And Starscream looked pretty cool.
If you want to worship the mold, you can do better to worship Stalker! Despite the neon colours of this UK Exclusive, all the features work on it and has all the weapons that were not supplied with Machine Wars.Burn wrote:Forget Megatron and Starscream.
You really want Soundwave. And you will worship the mold! *shakes fist*
Well, earlier figures from the UK Exclusives like the Cyberjets ended up in G2. But as far as the later figures like the Lightformers and Predators,... Yeah, they have remained exclusive to the UK/Europe.waaaaghlord wrote:The Predators were just generally cool. Am I right in thinking that the US only ever got the tampered with larger bots and not the smaller jets in any form?
Best bet when using eBay is to set you search parameters at world wide. Though you have to be mind full of the shipping costs. And of course not to squeeze out your Machine WarTs too soon!Raymond101 wrote:So should I check out ebay Australia for any copies of Machine Warts action figures?
If you get Megatron, you really should get Megaplex aswell... Megaplex is a clone (re-paint) of Megatron. According to the bio's Megatron rule and uses Megaplex to be in more places at once. They belong together, I think. Of course, if you want them for the molds rather then the characters, it shouldn't matter.Raymond101 wrote:I want Megatron the most. I guess it just reminds me of when I really liked Transformers even more... I know Megatron's not even that good a figure... but I would like to see him again.
Yeah, but Megatron & Megaplex are two, while Optimus Prime was still just one.Raymond101 wrote:Nevermind, I found them. Man, Prime would kick Megatron's butt in this continuity. Heaven knows why they released Megatron in Basic while Prime got Ultra mode and his own battle station. Ouchy.

Yeah. The Neon colours of the UK exclusives may have made them hard to look at. But the molds of the toys were pretty cool. Especially considering that they are about 15 years old by now.Burn wrote:You really should look at getting the original releases of the molds as well because they featured more weapons and well ... you can't get enough Stalker love.
