hmmm. i think its ok with star wars cos the vehicles are actual featured ones in the movies that belong to the characters the bot modes represent, so at least the vehicles are good, and some bots fit (like battle droids).
but marvel has no vehicles apart from ghost rider's bike and they couldnt even do a good tf outta that. venom is good but thats as a unique figure with a bitchin' muscle car mode and perfectly bulky bot even before you realise, its venom.
i dont really know about g.i.joe, so i cant talk about that. apart from the fact that powerglide looks like a cobra rattler.

They sorta had the right idea with Energon Snowcat.

shame, i never found a snow cat.
he's sorta a holy grail of mine, apart from the fact if i could be bothered to spend some more on ebay i could quite easily get him.

I think I have one stuffed in a box somewhere. If you're ok with loose figures I coulde dig him out and we could work something out maybe? Let me know. I'll find him and see what condition he is in. I have quite a few Energon/Armada toys so if there's anything you're looking for, let me know.

As for marvel vehicles, I dunno. They could do a Quinnjett or Blackbird. Maybe the Runaways Leapfrog? :lol:

And of course there's always the Amazing Spider-Mobile!

Hi all

I expect most of you have already noticed, but Tesco and Asda stores have a bunch of the new RTS line in. I'm in the Bristol area and have seen Jazz, Tracks, Fallback & Mindset. Large Tesco stores have the new leader class movie Battle Blades Prime & Starscream, and the Hot Rod/Cyclonus/Nightstick pack in stock. Tesco also have a 20% sale on all of these at the moment so worth getting to one if you want any of these guys.

Also, if anyone is after the leader class ROTF Prime & Jetfire in the Bristol area, get to Cribbs. TK Maxx have Jetfire for £20 and the Tesco next door have Prime (I think for £30ish, but the pricing wasn't clear).

Happy hunting!

ok that'd be cool. I suppose i should say that im not really into loose figs, (the ones i got were poo really) but im sure it'd be ok from a "reputable collector" such as yourself.

i purposely left out the atrocious spider-mobile. no one wants that.

yes.
im pretty sure everyone has.
doesnt everyone look at the main page?

anyhoo, he looks good, but i dont like the face, its too curved and organic looking. he needs more angles on his head.

To the new guy:
Warning: Seibertron.com contains nuts!
Yesss! 3rd time now...
I was going to get summat @ argos but they were shut yesterday :-(

I must save up for DOTM. Sentinel Prime and Voyager Megatrooonios are must-haves for me.
what r you guys going 2 get???

http://www.youtube.com/user/waspshot23 · Fri Feb 18, 2011 1:18 pm

probs shockwave, skyhammer and LOADS of cyberverse ones like powerglide (red thunderbolt A-10, yes please!), sentinel, blackout, the the lil' ironhide looks good, certainly better than the bigger ones.something about mini, basic figures really floats my boat.

News Credits: 6 · Fri Feb 18, 2011 3:44 pm

Wasp-- I'm surprised you don't collect WST then!

I only really intend to get Sentinel Prime, pending pictures of Powerglide (still need convincing on that un). I also would like to see more of leader IH; if he's the right size I might pick him up on clearance to replace premium IH.

Aside from that, I'd love to see more of that voyager bot copter. I'm really hoping I could use him as Wrecker Whirl. If they released a blue repaint, I'd buy INSTANTLY.

News Credits: 2 · Fri Feb 18, 2011 5:47 pm

From DOTM I'll most likely get Sentinal Prime, Shockwave and Skyhammer. I'm liking the looks of the Scout Class Human Alliance stuff aswell, Icepick is a must have.

News Credits: 8 · Fri Feb 18, 2011 5:48 pm

i will be really picky if i do decide to pick up any movie toys, and if i have to get them, i might wait for the premium versions or the takara versions, really depends on the movie itself

hey wasp maybe you should do some stop motion with blurr, would love to see that or ever scourge

just an idea man

no, it's a good idea. you've just given me some inspiration.
i can (nearly) promise you i will have some kind of blurr stop motion on youtube by the end of the week. maybe even vs scourge.

plus, my energon isecticon arrived today. he's one short, stocky stag beetle. (well. ok a rhinoceros beetle but its a robot, it could be any beetle you want)

If anyone's put off by the orange bit on legends Megatron, silver Sharpie knocks it into next week. Buy the thing, it's much better than it looks.

anyone know anywhere at UK retail I might be able to get Wreck-Gar? Kapow has sold out of them before I've been paid (had been planning to order him along with the Kup, Scourge, TC, Wheeljack set) and I'd prefer not to have to splash out on the United version right now.

i was going to wait for him to hit argos and get him on the 2 for £15 thing

he's RTS, so i think its only a matter of time
