That's expensive troop building. But I guess if he's got the moolah, more power to him. I figured he got 3 to display 1 in each mode.Sabrblade wrote:Troop-building.Rodimus Prime wrote:Why 3 copies?

Fitting for a figure named "Overcharge".Rodimus Prime wrote:That's expensive troop building.Sabrblade wrote:Troop-building.Rodimus Prime wrote:Why 3 copies?
In-universe, though, Overcharges are mass-produced drones built and operated by the Quintessons, per the bio of the original Overcharge toy from 2005. Before he acquired his individual identity, Blitzwing used to be an Overcharge, as part of his cartoon backstory, explained in the pack-in manga that came with Takara Legends Blitzwing, which thus explains how and why he remembered the Quintessons in "Five Faces of Darkness" while everyone else didn't.

Friday, I picked up SS86 Megatron at Target (yeah! a miracle. I know!) and spotted some SS86 Grimlock reissues.
Picked up Scavenger today at Wal Mart in the regular TF section along with some Mixmasters spotted.
With Scavenger, my Devastator is complete!

Agreed! I was showing my son how ridiculous the box to figure ratio was and he said well Lord Megatron demands nothing less due to his ego lol.
I wish they included the gun he shoots Optimus with in the movie.

Blokee's Action Edition Soundwave to go with Prime and Megatron
MPG-14S God Ginrai, the box is massive, even bigger than the MPG-06S Raiden 6-pack box.
Yesterday I got the notice from BBTS that the Selects G2 Dinobots 2-pack is preparing to charge so I picked up G2 Grimlock this morning at Walmart.

I never got it, due to being priced out and not even having RTS Prime. Even though he's been on my want list for a decade and a half, I had yet to actually make the move. Here seemed as good a reason as I was going to get!
I will always be fond of this era of design. The characters were recognizable, but with extra style that made them visually appealing. As toys, they were very tactile and not fiddly. And they had just a bit more mass to them that made them easy and engaging for a child's hands.
This is the line up I wanted in 2011. (Only Wheeljack and Tracks actually joined the collection back then.)
Combing with a trailer is never not awesome.
Compared with the latest Laser Prime incarnation. Again, I'm partial to the stylization of the RTS mold, and really dig that the windows actually end up on the chest. But the Legacy one gets points for actually coming with a trailer (even if I got the upgrade for this one, too!)
Also, 400th Post!

Actually, this was before sale week! It was in the vintage section. I also got a Beast Machines Blackarachnia, who was also noticeably low-priced for TfSource Standards. Of course, both were pre-owned, but even other vintage items I've gotten from there weren't this low.

Megs Bull is more of the same, like for Scourgvatron, and Snarl. Simple, and effective.
But Racer Sky-Bite is the champ so far. He's absurd, fun, roll like a charm, and is 100% show accurate!

I'm currently making a CONSTRUCTIBOTS custom and I needed him as a reference. And why buying it sealed? The price difference between it and a loose, complete one were negligible. Not so fun fact for sealed collectors. The little rubber bands inside are all rotten and snapped off due to age.

Two years ago, it was a hard pass at 50$CAN at Toys R Us, but now, found randomly at 27$CAN, no tax, free shipping at Amazon.ca?
GIMME!
The BWBB Smashing Scourge!

Sure, there's no articulations and the gimmick works only 1 time out of 10, but I really love his looks and it's fun to have it alongside his brother, Optimus Prime!


With these two on the streets, the garbage will be well taken care of!
