I've mostly decimated my wants list these last few months. Alt Prowl and Meister and Skids are in the bag, so I only really need Smokescreen to finish (might get Rollbar and Ricochet if I see them cheap- good molds).

The reissues mostly cos I like G1 figures, but prefer them to be in snazzy packaging a minty condition.

Other than that, I guess the only other figures I would be on the lookout for is BW Depthcharge, Sky shadow and the black jet part gestalt limbs from Energon.

I guess only MP Skywarp atm. My bro's getting SS, and I don't like the look of white Prime repaint #235245634645235234626.

I don't know... I don't want any Masterpiece figures. In fact I don't think I'll be buying anything there. Unless by some infinitesimally unlikely chance some dealer there is selling the Lucky Draw SCF Skywarp, in which case I will get my credit card out and make him eat it until he is pooping out my cash.

i dont know if im mad or what, but i really dont dig the MP's. I have Prime (the one with the battle scars which ever one that is) and he's cool like, but there's something about him that makes me feel a bit meh, ive recently seen megs and SS and again both are a bit meh. I'll probably regret not buying any of them in a few years time though so ill probably end up buying them all lol.........except Magnus, but i aint getting started on that again. (having said that, i view my G1 magnus without the trailer attached as Prime when he's coated in the alloy in The return of Optimus prime.

Why is it so quiet in here anyhow?

Everyone else is still out getting brain stinked on alcohol

That's how I've always seen white Magnus. Makes more sense than UM's pjs.

They're not for everyone. I was just thinking how awesome it'd be if they made a custom shell for MP Megatron, of the German air trooper pistol (Luger?). Truly an awesome gun.

To be totally honest Tek, I'd think it'd be a better idea to just pay him.

tek, if your gonna make someone **** money, make sure im near by.

Anyone hoping for a classics Cyclonus???

News Credits: 6 · Wed Feb 20, 2008 3:04 pm

I am. I'd love to go with Scourge and Galvy.

Wed Feb 20, 2008 3:25 pm

yeah, im kinda tempted to try and pick up a G1 cyclonus, his g1 toy looked really nice in alt mode.

Just finished Escalation, man it gets better with every arc, need to pick up my own copies of the spotlights now. Roll on may 9th for the devastation collection

I just found out my uncles coming back from the states for a visit in a week or so, I might beg him to find a MP Skywarp somewhere there for me. w00t for good exchange rates! :mrgreen:

Wed Feb 20, 2008 3:33 pm

tell him to bring some for your best buds too :wink:

I've always wondered what US TRUs are like...

Wed Feb 20, 2008 4:44 pm

Wed Feb 20, 2008 4:49 pm

Uh, I'm, um, flattered?

Aye, my uncle would just love that, "Can you get me *huge massive 20 page list of obscure Tf's*, in two days time. KTNXBI!!"

After the obscene money that I parted with for my shiny Jizaitoys Cyclonus? If Hasbro went and put out a deluxe that didn't come apart as soon as you look it I think I'd probably have a symultanious heamorage and prolapse.

Just looking at the smilies and wondering why we don't have a Transmet Transient logo. I'd use one of those all the time. I'm going to be playing Spider in an adaptation of the comics that I'm working on with my filthy assistants. Should be a lot of fun, although it will be a while before we get to the nice gritty stuff where his brain's falling apart. Looking forward to that. He he he, trust the ****.

Does anybody know if there is any truth in the rumor of the Alternators line coming back?

Because someone commented it in another topic

Thu Feb 21, 2008 1:59 pm

i think the people at the convention last week said they were looking at bringing it back. its not a deffinate yes or no. tbh, i couldnt care less if they did or not, i liked them when they came out, but after i transformed them once, they were a bit meh.

News Credits: 6 · Thu Feb 21, 2008 2:16 pm

I wouldn't mind them coming back. But I can't really think of many more characters that could have a car updated alt mode...

Thu Feb 21, 2008 2:28 pm

maybe i suppose they could do actual trucks (for prime/magnus/motormaster) and planes tanks that kinda thing

News Credits: 6 · Thu Feb 21, 2008 2:41 pm

That'd be awesome. But I think the scale would have to change slightly for them to be a reasonable price.

Thu Feb 21, 2008 2:48 pm

shhhhhhhhh, dont mention the word scale, you know what happend last time with galvie :wink:

Seriously though, i would consider buying them if they did that. Imagine how cool warpath/brawl could look as a real tank!!

News Credits: 8 · Thu Feb 21, 2008 2:50 pm

I think it would be good if they released the popular Alts again, Alts like Prowl and Jazz at a reasonable price would be kool.

Alts are pretty much display pieces neways

Thu Feb 21, 2008 2:53 pm

id just like them to actually release prowl in this country. If anyone is interested btw, the hasbro site has alt rodimus for sale. I know its importing, but i saw it yesterday, thought id share

News Credits: 6 · Thu Feb 21, 2008 3:12 pm

I didn't know the Hasbrotoyshop exported goods?

Yeah, I would buy an MP Warpath, let alone an Alt one.

Thu Feb 21, 2008 3:16 pm

hmmmmmm, i assume they ship abroad, 99% of yank companies do. Yeah i dont know why everyone hates warpath so much, he's no where near as annoying as beachcomer/seaspray/springer/ironhide
