And finally, Takara's upcoming UW release:

By making us look to that area, I just spotted something I didnt see before. The new guns for the takara version act as exhaust ports/boosters in vehicle mode.

Oooh, I see what you're saying and I like it!!

Always nice when someone else can help encourage my habit. Er, I mean hobby.
That's another point for the TT version in my book!

Apparently there was a Combiner Hunters box set for Combiner Wars, does anybody have it in hand or any pics of it?

Awesome breakdown Sabr! Also Rainmaker we have a section where you can find all our lists on the best and worst Transformers: http://www.seibertron.com/top-lists/index.php

Is that a little bit of shameless plugging I see there will

Couldnt resist.

When I saw Sabr's post I looked up because even I havent explored every nook and cranny of this site (I am mostly involved with the news) and I noticed that we actually have a section for those lists. I didnt see it until just now and it also happens to not have been part of Sabr's post so I though... why not?

It's sometimes hard to tell if someone is joking or being serious when they react with surprise to unknown aspects of this site.

As it does seem like a good many people do not wander to far from the board itself - judging from what people way. Heck I don't even wander into several of the items listed there ->
at all and I only very infrequently look at the front page or galleries.

Fellow Seibertronians, following our previous coverage of the Botcon display, we now bring you an update to the Computron and Technobot display from Saturday. The gallery, which can be viewed Here, features Scattershot and the rest of the Technobot gang, along with Scrounge, a remold of Legends class Cosmos, and his Targetmaster. So check out the updated gallery, and let us know what you think of the Technobots in the comments below.

I figured it out!!!!! Scrounge keeps the target master because the targetmaster is his special arm!!!!!!!! THERE IS NO OTHER ONE LIKE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

At the Hasbro display, I asked John Warden about the little Payload redeco that comes with Scrounge, asking if it's supposed to be his Special Arm or if it's a new character. He chuckled at the idea of it being Scrounge's arm, saying that one could think of it as such, but then stated that it isn't a new character and is basically still just Payload.

One could reconcile both together into saying that Payload transforms into the Special Arm.

Special arm. The Primal has spoken.

[Wolfman Jake]

Since Payload transforms into a blaster weapon, doesn't that make him Scrounge's "special arms" instead?

[Jelze Bunnycat]

The real life reason is probably that the Micromaster is gangmolded with Cosmos, and Hasbro isn't too keen on "throwing away perfectly usable parts" but where's the fun in accepting that?

For some reason I'm drawn more and more to Hasbro's Nosecone. Probably because I consider him to be a "stand-in" member of some sort, along the likes of Alpha Bravo and Hasbro's Blast Off, being a straight redeco (with a switched out part). Look at him and tell me you don't agree:



A similar case can be made for Lightsteed/Lightstorm/Lightspeed, except it's from Autobot to Autobot, not switching factions:



... or maybe it's because I remember playing with a friend's G1 Nosecone at his house.

[Carnivius_Prime]

oi Hasbro let me buy Scrounge seperate from Computron! grr...

I also wouldn't mind if they released the hands and feet in various colors...

These two are perhaps the easiest ones to accept as "second stringers" for the Technobots team. They are completely different molds with completely different looks compared to their Takara counterparts. Strafe has different molds too, but in his case, it reads more like two similar yet different attempts at the same outcome, while with Nosecone and Lightspeed, it feels more like two completely different takes on a similar concept. Does that make sense? Anyway, I like to think of Hasbro's Nosecone as "Screwdrive" and Lightspeed as "Warpspeed." Yes, I'm going to pimp those names every chance I get!

I just noticed this in the Fort Max display. It has me in tears
