Personally, I will never buy this kit because, for me, the Prime VOYAGER Megatron is not a mold worth upgrading. First Edition Prime deluxe Megatron is perfect to represent the series in my collection.

However, for anyone who like to have their toys in scale and to display the series together, this is an upgrade kit that may be worth buying.

Just bought everyone's absolute favourite Aerialbot, Alpha Bravo. This guy is soooo much fun and I love him. The chopper mode kicks arse and his transformation is really inventive. And that headsculpt...mwah!

So yeah. Never bring a slingshot to a war.

Not really a haul, but a future haul.

So I made a pre-order at Amiami for the Takara Menasor. Things over there get sold out FAST and Menasor look sweet in Takara colors. This is also the first combiner I really wante appart Defensor.

Transformers Unite Warriors UW02 Menasor(Provisional Preorder)
Unit price 11,240 JPY x 1 unit(s) = 11,240 JPY

I just hope shipping will not be too high and customs will spare me. Fingers crossed and let's see how it will turn out in a few months.

Yeah, The colors on Motormaster alone kinda make me regret Hasbro purchase

I did that exact thing for Superion. The price difference is so marginal now that the extra deco is not much of a premium anymore. And plus we dont have to bust our asses looking for the extra member (and deal with the extra costs of that since they are online exclusives).

But for Menasor, I will stick with the hasbro version because I prefer their Dragstrip and I feel the team looks better with all of them being different molds. The two clone cars look a bit odd when everyone else is different. Just my preference though, I am not considering this Menasor to be a full on G1 Menasor, more like a modern day homage instead.

Love it! Head sculpt is superb, ear to tusk gimmick is awesome, haven't figured out how to face boomerang missiles forward yet. Loving the cyborg arm. He looks like he's ready to open up a can!

Took my 3 year old to MacD's for lunch today. She was psyched to find the Happy Meal toys were MLPs. Dad was psyched when he was reminded that there were also RID toys. I didn't really care until my daughter was all, "Dad, you should get a Ompimtus Prime".

So I did.

The Happy Meal box had a punch out mask.

Cobots In Disguise

Coolest part though...
Warrior class toys can hold the weapon.

Worst part though...
Ba da ba ba bowels
Not lovin' it.
:SICK:

I didnt get that last part, what did you mean? Also, I am surprised you didnt pose a toy using that weapon as a guitar. Now you can have someone else rock along with Soundwave and Orion Pax.

Also, I forgot you had a CW Prime. You dont want to have combine him with all the stunticons while waiting for Motormaster?

Oh. I have. I'm just currently enjoying the Stuntipunks individually. Off Road ROCKS! Dead End and Breakdown are awesome too.

Of course you were. Because I'm a horrible speller. :lol:

Yes, I meant bowels. Great! Ruined that joke. :roll:

It dawned on me that maybe, in Quebec there are different slogans, jingles, and ad campaigns for MacDonalds. For the last like 15 years MacD's slogan has been "I'm lovin' it". I was quoting the jingle.
Next time your eating a Royal with cheese, ask yourself, are you really lovin' it?
:lol:

Oh I got the jingle joke, just not the punchline. And while canada does use the metric system we call it the quarter pounder, or where I am from: le quart de livre.

And while we do use similar slogans, mcdonalds is known to cater to the local tastes. So right now our best seller is the Max 67 burger, named after (and supposedly created by) a local nhl player.
