I was very happy with my Devastator set. The box is so nice and shiny too. Though it was a bit of a cop out using two of each mold. Hightower has Mixmaster's bio. Whoever Hightower is he does not look like a chemical specialist. =o I feel they could have at least modded his arm to look like a nozzle of some kind rather than just making him another crane. He could have had his proper name back then. =(



I don't think it'd be too great a stretch, even for me, to get hold of a mixing barrel from a model that's in the same scale. It certainly would make all of the difference.

I lucked out in Woolies and got both Armorhide (Christmas present from my parents now) and Elita One (acting Classics Arcee). Awesome.

But what about the other clone? What does he transform into and which proper Constructicon could he be transformed into? You also need to turn them that nice shade of green for them to be a proper classics.

I'm granting myself tonight to rest and sleep, as I have been working damn hard. I'll be going to Sainsburys to buy a horrific ammount of Red Bull for the weekend - if any of you guys see me on here over the weekend tell me to sod off :P

Remove the scoop cut a bucket in half and attach it to the legs you have a dump truck for a proper Long Haul. Ta-dah!

Then the fake Long Haul becomes Hook. Yay.

The only problem remaining is Bonecrusher would have to be a standalone Contsructicon. Just grab the one from the movie I guess and give him a new paint job.

Just saw this over at TFW2005, thought you guys should know about it :grin: So, who's going to get it then? :???:

From TFW2005:

'UK Transformers site Transformers @ The Moon is reporting that in the UK Transformers Animated will not air on Cartoon Network. No indication has been given as to who will be carrying the show in their place. We will update you as soon as more news becomes available.'

I'm confused, isn't it part developed by Cartoon Network? Who else would carry it?

And woah massive hail stones are coming down. Glad I'm not outside. O_O It's like a rock slide.

Unless its was only being made for by CN for CN America to show. If you compare the trademark information on cartoonnetwork.com to that on cartoonnetwork.co.uk they have loads more shows over there. Most notably Transformers Cybertron, which we got on ITV.

Well, as ITV had BW when it first aired, I saw some Armada on ITV when that was going, and last year ITV had Cybertron (did they show BM and Energon and RID? I dont know.) and ITV4 showed the original movie when the new one came out, I would hazard a guess and say ITV will have this one.

If someone does find out when it's on, please let us know, I would be most interested to see this show, even if the animation is questionable.

Ah but if I did that then I wouldn't be able to back you up in some HMW missions would I?

Done the presentation, will have finished preparing for one essay in a few hours time - then all I have to do is sit down and write the buggers. :grin:

BM and RID were on Fox Kids and Armada was shown on Sky One as well as ITV, and yeah I think they did have Energon as well, so I would also put my money on ITV getting it.

All this talk of work reminds me I should be doing research for a presentation and analysing data for my Dissertation.

Ah well.

Broswe the forums, then off to work I suppose.

Pfft, life in the library is far too overrated :P

Having said that, more people are in here than I thought. I'm cancelling the noise out by listening to Pandora on the 'net. 3 books down, 3 to go!

When it first started back in 95, it was early week mornings on GMTV. I remember because I saw a trailer for it and thought it looked brilliant (not having seen any tf's before now except for the movie) but when I put it on at the time advertised, it was the closing few minutes of the pilot, around the time Primal asks for cover. I put it on half an hour earlier the next day and it was on the proper time it was suppossed to be. The relativly new ITV2 then started showing it on Saturday mornings early on, but only showed season 1 and 2.

About 2 or 3 years ago, they started showing early on Saturday morinings on Channel 5. They not only aired all 3 eps (oh how long I had waited to see how they went from Agenda to Deep Metal having got that episode onwards on video), but they also aired an ep that I had never seen on ITV: Victory.
