i find it really hard to spot enemies on this game because everything is so darn dark

the key to WFC (at least as an Autobot) is learning to distinguish between the dull grey of the background and the dull grey of every Decepticon ever! It was a fun game, but I really wish they'd have given the Cons a bit more pizazz

Aiming doesn't matter, EVERYTHING SHALL BURN!!!


I might play it when I get back to Hull tomorrow. Quite miss it, it was well fun. My only problem with it is that the aiming doesn't feel as elegant as CoD or Gears of War. But that's massively outranked by the fact it's transformers and it's awesome.


Bring on WFC 2 I say!

Are you insinuating that Hasbro UK doesn't know it's own prodcut line?

Because you'd be bloody right

right electron im guessig that shadow scyther, and a repaint of hot rod(henk wildrid or shatterd glass).
i dont have a clue about the rest...
yet


@dead metal where where where???

my dad came home and gave me a bag saying "I had this bought in, I thought it should go in your collection (he runs a comic shop)" inside was a knockoff jumpstarter or " robot fighter" in a beaten up box. I think it's topspin but of course the colours are wrong and he has a flip down cockpit. Sadly the jumpstarter mechanism has been removed so he doesn't auto transform. I've got no idea how old it is as there's no manufacturers marks anywhere just "made in china" on the box.
I'll try and post some pics of this weird thing.
It certainly isn't going to live on my classics shelf, that's for sure.

at about 3 20 on this vid it might help.
check out th guy too he is awesome

pretty impressive man, look forward in seeing more of your stuff

you thinking of doing any scenes?

btw guys updated my sales thread http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/items-sal ... -sale.html

cheers

Yeah I thought about tryin some classic movie scenes (prime vs megs) but can't decide which figs to use. With me it woul have to be classics megs and classics prime, cos that's the only g1ish megatron I've got and prime would have to be in scale.
I dunno I need to think about what I can come up with.
I might try a devastator (rotf legends or energon micromaster) test next though. I like the idea of the challenge animating a combiner brings.

i just made another little vid. its only to test some soundbites i got but i thought id let you guys see it cos i got so excited making it thinking "ive made the der der der derr der bit!"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qDprJIy_eT8its unlisted so only you guys can watch it.
enjoy! (for 16 seconds)

CHOOSE!!! oj

thanks man, trying to sell them act, shame i dropped sludge just after i decided to sell them

oh wells, still a nice display piece

got my 2 Kapow deliveries, yesterday, after the postman decided to try and deliver them on a Sunday at half one in the afternoon when I'd been up til 6 playing XBox.

Loving Protector, and Sidearm, from packaging on to the products themselves. Quite dislike the vagueness of the instruction book though. The comics/extended Mosaic wasn't bad at all, but I'd rather they'd posted that online and given us real instructions (as much as it's possible while showing the interaction with the Hasbro base figure). A little worried about forcing some of the pieces at first, but now I understand how it's all meant to fit together (through my own inverstigation) I love it. My Challenge At Cybertron Rodimus doesn't look half-bad with his new arms and shoes.

The Henkei Attack Team was pre-owned, but other than the blister being opened these were mint. A great deal, and some cool little guys. Yeah, they're Legends Class, I think, but they're all at least as poseable as the original versions of these characters were and have a lot of character in them.

Thunderwing is a shrunken piece of awesome. Kinda wish they'd made his head entirely out of translucent plastic and just painted it, so his mouth could glow like his eyes do, but when that's my biggest gripe about a toy, it's good.

Thrust is also pretty good, I really like the colours and his joints are all pretty tight. Dirge on the other hand...well, he feels like a KO. Plastic quality, and that his left foot doesn't fold all the way down, and had stress marks on it from being transformed once...I'm a little disappointed. Looks good, but I'll probably pose him up and leave him for a good while.

Wow Craggy how much did you order thats alot I also use the Challenge off Cybertron Rodimus for the Protector.

I pre-orderd the heads for Generations Kup I hope Kups original head is on a ball joint so it is easy to remove. It was only £10 so get it if you want it

Also Kapow have finaly got PCC Heavytread with Groundspike and Skyhammer with Airlift instock so if you want them go and buy them hope this info was helpful
