Megatron origin is very good, just the art alone is worth buying the story.

Are you still talking about Classics Grimlock? I thought I was the only person in the world who liked that figure. You can wrap the tail up into a backpack type of thing to make the robot mode more bulky looking. Yeah, teeth feet are bad but overall I reckon he's pretty cool, might be 'cause I'm a fanboy though.

Not a fan of grimmy's 'foot and mouth disease' (hah, see what i did there?) either, but still a nice figure. I think energon grimlock is also really nice and geewunny as well (partly because he was supposed to be a classics figure but accidently got put in the energon line; thanks tfwiki)
I read one issue of megatron origin once. It might be the first but i'm not sure. it's the one where some hench 'bot guard with a shield gets killed trying to defend a 'bot politician or something. and sentinel prime's in it at the end. Congratulations if you understood any of that btw

I'm gonna do stalker at somepoint. I bought him for 50p at a charity shop cos he has NO accessories or stickers, just the intact base figure. Any suggestions on what colour or even what character he should be? I was thinking the fallen...

I went trick or treating as well. I got some walnuts, a rotten apple, a few stares £3 and some woman opened the door and left, and me and my friend were left standing outside her house with the door open and her dog humping our legs XD

I got him for nothing from a GP surgery toybox. Yes I provided a suitable replacement (Armada Cyclonus, ugh). He was repainted as Soundwave for (I think) Machine Wars, That seems appropriate.

dont you dis cyclonus!!!!

Nope, I was wrong. http://www.tfarchive.com/toys/reviews/mw_soundwave.php, there was a blue/gold repaint though.

News Credits: 2 · Tue Nov 01, 2011 2:15 pm

Yea I thought of that but he's not got the right chest. I was thinking it could be a retarded six-shot, or something like the fallen which i said before. Or i could just sell the sod and be done with it. Does anyone know when dotm wheeljack and soundwave are coming out in the UK (2015 at this rate. i've only seen as far as deluxe wave 3 in shops, and it was only in one shop at that, so i don't hold out much hope. we might not even get them at all, but if that happens, i will be having words with whoever's in charge of hasbro uk. And they won't be nice words. I may be using some asterix's if you get my meaning:p)

http://www.youtube.com/user/waspshot23 · Tue Nov 01, 2011 2:27 pm

they should be out next year, february or something...
I know what you mean about slow wave comings, but i've seen deluxe wave 4, and legion wave 3 and voyager wave 3 and heard of cyberverse wave 4 out, so it's only cannon force ironhide for the voyagers we'e waiting for, and air raid, darksteel and leadfoot for the deluxes.

News Credits: 2 · Tue Nov 01, 2011 2:38 pm

Don't forget the all important armour topspin!!! ahh, drudge
i thought leadfoot was coming out with a twin-twist in an exclusive twin twist?

So after an hour on the phone to India going through everything that I had already done before contacting Three all over again they now agree that my dongle is knackered and are sending me a new one. Why exactly is my saying "I've uninstalled and reinstalled the software and it's still not working" not good enough when I'll be sending back the dodgy one anyway?

http://www.youtube.com/user/waspshot23 · Tue Nov 01, 2011 2:46 pm

yeah, but no pics have come out so... that could be next year...
there is meant to be a single non-target logo'd leadfoot coming out too

News Credits: 2 · Tue Nov 01, 2011 3:05 pm

oh goodee! i'll add that to my ever increasing wishlist!

I love him. His Dino-mode is so cute.
I think I'm contracting fanboyness too.

Hm. I did like the artwork on Megatron Origins, Waspshot.
It's one of the reasons I looked it up.
I'll see what finances are doing..

Wow, I missed quite a bit of conversation today! Sorry I have to go back a bit in my reply and it may be a little long.

Lol Wasp, mudflap longs for death!! You are right though, at least he is a new mold, but I think I can do without in the time being. I have the mudflap and skids other models but I don’t like them very much at all. As for you video, no worries, it was amusing and you should make more!

Annnnnnnnd yes! Mr Weebl is AWESOME!! Have had Magical Trevor as my gaming tag since the first one came out. I watched the trailer for the game! Want it! Other favourites are Cat Face and Badgers, obviously. Are you going to get it?

I have nay read the Megatron Origin comics so thusly I cannot help you. I don’t even know what they are (don’t hurt me). So I will, after this message, go and have a look!

And yay again, classics Grimlock! I don’t have it, but it I will one day, anything Grimlock is amazing, so I to am a fanboy Mr. O! You are not alone! Just had a gander at a vid of him and I don’t think the ‘foot n mouth disease’ (to quote Nova – har de har by the way) is that bad at all.

Nova – nice find for a charity shop. My first transformers came from one that I worked in (which was so so much fun - highly recommended!) and they had a box full out the back which I got to have! So awesome! Havent found any in charity shops since, though I do look. Just do him whatever, something funky, lol.

No trick or treating for me, and if I did go, I don’t think I would get anything being bearded and 27! You didn’t half get some random things Nova, lol. I remember getting some well random things because some people didn’t have anything. And Rodimus, going to a retirement home dressed as death, LOL! Surprised to didn’t cause any, which would have been very ironic. What did they say??

G1 Cyclonus is amazing – got a couple of thems ones! The Armada one is a bit odd though. When I got it I didn’t even know it was him for AGES! Why make him a helicopter thing. I do like the trigger that spins the blades.

How behind are we in the waves coming out compared to other places? I mean being behind other countries is bad, but slow waves can be viewed as a good thing for some people. If they come slowly people can save up, rather than spending a butt load at once (though it seems that way anyway, lol). Also from Hasbro’s point of view, they can get money throughout the whole year releasing at different times rather than in one lump. Despite that, ITS TO SLOW! Nova, message them with many many asterisks!!

Waaaagh – I sympathise with you. I hate phoning those customer support lines! Theyre so bad sometimes, and you have to run through EVERYTHING even if you have done it already. Also, not meaning this in a racist way or anything, half the time the ones in India I cant understand what they are saying as the line is bad, or their accent is just way to strong – no offence. I hope it gets sorted anywho!

That will have to do as its getting long, sorry!!!!

Woo Hoo! picked up Cyberverse Guzzle.

Also Tako Tank, Backfiery, Stormbomb, Thundershred and transbots Wheelie turned up

Didnt pick up the repaints of Rachet and Bumblebee that have turned up locally.

trev, I have a youtube channel full of 100+ vids... If you want to look, click on the little square that says youtube under my name bit.

I have russian dancing men and have completed the easy mode. Excellent game.

News Credits: 2 · Wed Nov 02, 2011 11:52 am

whoah, trev! your posts get longer by the day! I've decided i'm going to e-mail hasbro and ask them if they plan to do any new molds in their new 'movie trilogy line', or whether it's just repaints/tools. This is, of course, with the alterior motive of finding out whether any more dotm figures are on the cards :p

http://www.youtube.com/user/waspshot23 · Wed Nov 02, 2011 1:32 pm

i doubt they'd tell you when all this "movie trilogy" stuff is next year's back end dotm stuff, and has only been revealed at conventions...
i want that deluxe prime with the trailer though, as i can't find the normal deluxe one, i'll wait for one with trailerage.
oh and that white ratchet too, just as i was about to buy specialist ratchet, finally a white repaint i might want.
but we should have more dotm stuff, seen as we don't have a dino/mirage yet...I WANT A FERRARIFORMER!!

News Credits: 2 · Wed Nov 02, 2011 1:48 pm

I don't know if hasbro can make mirage the 458 (seeing as ferrari made michael bay change his name to dino) but they could make it a ferrari lookalike instead (like rotf sideways, who isn't quite an audi r8) Leader megs, Leader shockwave, deluxe weaponised roadbuster, deluxe crowbar andd hatchet, mirage and jetwings prime are what i'd like to see, but i think we'll be lucky if we get any

I think we've seen the last of any new dotm figures, but with the rumoured tf4 and tf5, and seeing as how mirage didn't die in dotm, he could one day get a figure.
I also want the deluxe trailer prime, and that wheeljack intrigues me...

Thu Nov 03, 2011 1:24 pm

Greetings!

100 videos Wasp! I will have a look when I get more time, which is usually alot, but way busy this week. Im expecting big things

! And wish I could get the Russian Dancing Men game, I have no App device. Hoping to soon though

. Mainly for interent on the move, very useful.

Nice pick ups Neurie! Had to look up a few of those, the Tako Tank is mad! Looks like great fun. Whats it from? I know nothing

!

Let us know how the message to Hasbro goes Nova, if they even reply! Give em a bit of what for, tally ho

. I have no clue about any of the figures you have been talking about either lol. Though a Ferrarimorpher sounds awesome! I would take one! Seems a shame not to release toys they have in other places here though, there must be plenty of people who would buy them. Anyone want to make our own?

.

Am away in Blackpool for the weekend if anyone is there?? And Leeds a few days after, same applies?? So youll have some peace and quiet unless I have time and can get on here. Otherwise, have a great transmorphic weekend!

News Credits: 2 · Thu Nov 03, 2011 2:07 pm

I'm going to send the email at the weekend, so i'll let you know what they say
the only figures i was talking about that have been revealed are the five movie trilogy figs shown at NYCC: optimus, bee, wheeljack, ratchet and soundwave.
I was going to try and make a deluxe mirage out of dotm deluxe bumblebee and a model 458 in the correct scale:D
