They say no cameras, but I bet someone took some shots. Someone always does!

Can't wait. Gonna blow! MUST HAVE IRONHIDE AND HOUND!

EDIT:- Yes, yes we are

Argh, keep at it man!

I reread the page. TRU eh? We might actually see them over here! Messed up with BB though.

Oh yeah, oh yeah!

It's good to know that you don't have to go to Botcon in order for it to make you happy.

I almost feel like I'm going off topic by saying I've got some TF news. My G1 Ultra Magnus came yesterday and he is awesome.

Negatives:
- Missile launchers don't work
- stickers are a bit tatty
- significant yellowing and dirt

Positives:
- I don't really care about missile launchers
- I can get reprolabels for him easily enough
- Dirt can be cleaned off easily enough
- He's complete, comes with all four fists, missiles and missile launchers, trailer hitch, chest armour and head
- Has rubber wheels and metallic facemask
- Looks awesome and is great fun to transform
- He's an original and I got him for £13.49 shipped

This guy kicks the stuffing out of my Titanium Ultra Magnus

Thats not bad that...is is oringal G1 or reissue...regardless thats not a bad deal

Shouldn't he really be a voyager?

I'm so glad I've barely bought any TF's this year 'cos there's going to be a lot of spending going on by the end of the year.

Does anyone know where I can pick up Titanium Scourge? - I should have got him when he came out.

I love the little Legends Hound - I'm going to be taking him everywhere with me!!

bbp-- It's done! I forgots to send it to yas in all the fuss!!

I'll send it to ya first thing in the morning (wrong computer atm).
So yeah, it's perfect :wink:

Rod- I dunno mate. Haven't seen any Scourges knocking around for a while. I always recommend you check the buy/sell forums on any and all tf sites you know of. Your bound to find one for a nice price somewhere.

Online retailers don't have him anymore- at least, the ones I can think of....

Tek-- I bet you feel all warm and fuzzy, huh?

News Credits: 2 · Sat Apr 26, 2008 5:41 pm

Warm and fuzzy. Indeed.

Hyper and excited too.

He's original G1 - his stamp on the bottom says 1984 I think, which isn't bad as it makes him older than me

Congrats to Tek on 20 Skywarps, I recommend that you celebrate with cake.

Okay MP Grimlock has been officially announced. You might find this a bit of a funny idea, but I'm going to put him in my Classics display.

That is, as long as he can stand up and isn't too fragile.

I'll actually be able to replay the moment in the cartoon by shoving Botcon Thrust into his mouth. XD

Ahahahaha!

i just glad we're getting an origianl mold for ironhide!

News Credits: 2 · Sun Apr 27, 2008 8:24 am

Indeed.

Ironhide's alt mode looks totally naff though. Luckily I'll always have him in robot mode which looks just smashing. =D

Sun Apr 27, 2008 9:16 am

i dont think it looks that bad, admittedly it is a change from the van, but i like it!

News Credits: 2 · Sun Apr 27, 2008 9:44 am

It's not the type of Alt mode I have a problem with. It's the fact it's covered in massive cracks and lines.

And then you can get the just announced animated skywarp for number 21!

Ah. It's a good day to be me.

I reckon I'll get three of those Animated Skywarps. Two for display and one to play with.

Update on Episode 19:

It's been released on torrent!

Anybody who wishes to download the torrent themselves can do so here!

Sun Apr 27, 2008 11:54 am

i got BB from the entertainer.

Man looks like ive got some news to catch up on. also looks like im gonna have to dip into the MP pool again to pick up grimmie.

Sun Apr 27, 2008 12:12 pm

Just catching up on the botcon news and I realise I'll probably be in the minority but that Ironhide looks.... weird - great alt mode but what is going on with those arms and hands? Looks like he's borrowed them from movie Landmine. But i haven't waited this long for a decent Ironhide to complain about it now

And Hound

He's needed an update for a long time.

Sun Apr 27, 2008 12:19 pm

well ironhide looks ok, but having never been a fan of his, i think ill wait till i see him personally, silverbolt is a must buy methinks, please tell me that the legends hound is not the update, i couldnt see a different picture of it, didnt see the cyclonus one either to be fair, have i just missed it or isnt there one?!?!?!

Sun Apr 27, 2008 12:36 pm

I think I read something abut them not being allowed to show pictures of those two for some reason. I think it's because they were on slideshows at the panel not in display cases. I could be wrong, I was kind of rushing through it before work this morning.

News Credits: 7 · Sun Apr 27, 2008 12:50 pm

TFW has Legends Hound, as well as Legends Jazz and others :grin:

And wow! 2009 is gonna kick ass! If I remember to keep me money that is... :-(

But, woot! Universe lines is going to iclude Beast Wars figures, and Robot Heroes is getting BM figs and Transmetalk Megs!!! I is a happy person! :grin:

Episode 19 was superb!

Starscream was freakin' awesome in this one. You guys'll love it!

Here's part one on YouTube for those of you who can't use torrents.

Enjoy!

Parts 2 and 3 coming soon, with no sync issues! Yay!
