YES! He looks SUPERB!

And thank the lord he is TANK! =D He is going to look amazing next to my Armada Megatron.

But I see him next to Sunstreaker? Does that mean he's going to be a Deluxe? :shock: I would have thought he'd be one of the Ultras, or a Voyager.

The one good thing about him being a Deluxe is I can pose him with the Seekers and they'll all be in scale. :P But I am so glad he's a tank and not a cannon/gun.

Just the thought of Galvatron in the middle there with both sets of Seekers either side of him is enough to make me drool. =P~

He is going to be dwarfed by my megs though. =x

Oh and get this, Galvatron is now three times smaller than Powerglide! Ahahahaha, oh how the mighty have fallen. :P

Apparantly the rust was just tarnishing, and I hear they have fixed it now anyway. But I don't know, I do know I want MP Megs regardless. And Skywarp, and the nice coloured Starscream.

I don't own MP Megs as I don't like how skeletal he looks. If he had meatier legs I'd buy him for sure, but the only MP I'll be owning is Skywarp.

And yes, Classics Megs is crap. The Takara paint is better, but I much prefer Armada Megs, and he looks great dominating my Classics collection.

True, the MP Seekers are beautiful in Jet mode, but the robot mode is a little lacking in places. But it IS a realistic representation of how a real F-15 would look transformed, so we can't expect it to be 100% cartoon accurate. I say they look pretty damn good though as long as you don't judge the big cockpit too harshly and avert your eyes from the painfully weak looking legs.

Don't leave us Insurgent :sad:

Well, classics Galvatron looks good, I'll probably be getting him.

What's the bit about the minibots Pot?

All the minibots are going to be made into Ultra and Leader Class figures, along with a Supreme Class Huffer.

Fortress Maximus will be released in the next Scout Class assortment.

None of the old members post here any more.

I feel soo olde now :(



Still not digging Blaster. He just doesn't suit that mold for me.

After all this time, I think Blaster deserves better.

Galvy's great, but he really shoulda been the ultra- not powerglide.

Im still thinking its just a start for bots like Blaster and Galvie. At least the companies have noticed they need an update, so they should also realise people aint loving blaster and re do him. But it'll do for a start

Calm down Gramps :P A few people may return when HMW is back up.

I will not be getting ultra Powerglide, but I would have gotten an Ultra Galvy. Silly move doing it like that I think.

And I think I will pass on Blaster too, he is not looking so ace to me :-(

Omgs I forgot I need an essay doing for tomorrow, how do these things keep sneaking up on me??

Blaster aint perfect, but i dont think he's that bad. mistransformed apparantly.

Powerglide i actually quite like, her's my third fav behind Prowl and Onslaught (excluding galvie and bkaster obviously)

So, the news revealed this weekend has me both happy and confused.

:grin: Animated Jazz looks incredibly cool

:? Animated Slag is referred to as Snarl in the gallery - is this a typo or does that mean Slag is going to be referred to as Snarl in the show?

:? As I said when Universe Blaster was revealed - where is the realism aspect that Hasbro said was the fundamental point of Universe?

Everything else we either already knew about or I don't really care about.

I do like Powerglide. But he would've looked far better if that mold was a deluxe.

I'll be passing on Blaster. I just don't feel it. And sorry pot, but he's not mistransformed at all. He would've looked better if his colours matched up better.




Bah to you ya youngun :P
Red will most likely be back. And maybe High Command will post a bit more. But really most of them aren't coming back. Which is fine, their choice.

I made a point of making sure all my work from college was done before we broke up for half term. You should do the same you sausage :P


jr- A stealth bomber i can see. A red and grey bomber? Nah. No realism there.

I do really like jazz. What annoys me is the lack of real guns for the autobots. I'm amazed they won the war like that.

I tried to get DM back here, he made one post. *shakes fist*

Blaster looks kinda top heavy looking at those pics again, and your right, his colours really don't match up. Stupid unrealistic whatever kind of jet it is.

I have been doing work all half term. It's expected of you, holiday-sploiday :P I just, forgot about the essay...

i agree im going to take a while to get used to him, but hey, ive seen worse (classic megs and energon cliffjumper why i bought them i do not know lol) Maybe the 2 repaints are going to be new bots in the movie, and this was the quickest they could get something out on the cheap, i dunno. But forgetting everything else, Galvie looks ace!!


I dont know any of the old peeps, so i dont know, but maybe its just a case as with the rest of the site, too much misery and stuff going about. If yesterday's tiny ming was anything to go by then maybe its best some people dont post. Its a shame that british tf fans cant all relate and share thoughts
