Thank you kindly. The only one I'm questioning you on is rid 2015 Strongarm because I was living with my mom and had a deal where I couldn't buy Transformers if I bought Godzilla comics that IDW was putting out, and I'm pretty sure she came out before 2015.

Be pretty sure of what you want, it's strongarm.

Since I'm not living with my mom any more, I can buy all the toys and comic books I want and can afford. You look like you want to give me 5 billion dollars for Strongarm because you think she's cute.

Jason, don't suppose your mystery black truck was this guy, was it?

If so, that's Nemesis Prime from the Japanese Transformers Adventure line, which is how Japan released a lot of the RID 2015 toys; he's a repaint of the Warrior class Optimus Prime from the RID15 line.

That's the one, and exilkaiser is breaking Strongarm's heart because he won't pay $100 or more for her. She's an emotional and sensitive girl who got her feelings hurt. Thank you kindly for your help with identifying that truck.

Kidding aside, I found instructions for Strongarm. I was surprised because it looks like she turns into a police pickup truck, and I thought she was the police car. Maybe that one's Prowl. She's not that hard to transform. I'll have to look at the list so I can figure out if that's Prowl or not.

I didn't know I still had Soundwave. I thought that one got broken. I know the one that turns into a drone had a wing that broke, but I didn't know the one that turns into a car was still good. I may have listed that one as one of the top ten Transformers most likely to break; and if I did, I owe Hasbro an apology.

2015 is when (the current) RiD started, if it is Strong Arm, that's the time she first came out.

And hey, everybody, chill out. Jason's a bit enthusiastic, deal with it. If you think he's annoying let a mod deal with it and ignore his threads/posts. It's kinda nice to see someone so unabashedly into the hobby even if he's a little overboard sometimes. Without people like him, TF's would eventually die out, and none of us want that!

Hell no. Leave us out of it. Just put him on your Foe list and as you said, ignore his posts.

I had to do a lot of looking at the instructions, and I saw the year 2016. It seems like I may have been able to talk my mom into letting me get one Legends Class Transformer while I was buying Godzilla comics, and she was the one. The other Transformer I bought while Godzilla was coming out was Nemesis Prime with Spinister, and I only have Spinister between the two of those.

I've got the standard Warrior Prime, but i must say....that Nemesis one does look nice

The Nemesis I had didn't look like that. I had the one that came with a purple helicopter Transformer. The main one broke so I threw it in the garbage. I believe you can get a brand new Nemesis Prime and Spinister from someone on the buy/sell/trade forum. I don't know if Lightsyder has one, but he sold​ me a nice Astrotrain.

I just realized I was calling Windblade the wrong name because of the phone. I wish I had a computer I could just type with. I'd still use the phone to take and post pictures, but a computer would be nice.

I'm ready to bet 10$ you don't have a transformer called WindBag.

Jason5billion wrote: If you really want to bet, you're on. How about we up the ante to $10 a Windbag figure?

I'm just going to leave this here as a witness.

Congrats ExciKaiser!

I guess this is the appropriate thread to ask something like this..

What are the measurements of G1 Trypticon's connectors for Onslaught and Motormaster? They're a simple, non-detailed part and scratchbuilding them would save me money

Except I wrote it several times so you could read it. You can't blame only your phone, your stubborness has a lot to do with it.

Same as when I tell you strongarm has been released in 2015 and you deny without even checking which one is strongarm.


From now on, can we agree that what we say has chances to be more exact than what you think ?
That you'll check twice something before denying something we just tell you ?

If they would've come out with a Transformer called Windbag, that would've given homophobes another joke to make about Transformers. People on message boards don't like those kind of jokes, so I'll keep them all to myself.

Yes, hello.

Pfiew. I said nothing because english not being my first langage, I was afraid I maybe missed some pun.
So, I'm happy to see I'm not the only one to not understand.

Why bring that up in the first place? That's even worse.

i just googled "windbag" because of this.


i got new knowledge, but still don't understand what it has to do with homophobes.

Would like to add that I'm also interested in the measurements of Hot Spot's waldoes.

As long as they're doing Headmasters, will there be one that turns into a horse? Then people could leave the head off when he's not a horse and call him the headless horseman.

considering there is no horse transformers on g1 and idw, the answer will be 90% no.
