avoid this line.

go to youtube and watch all the reviews before you
spend money on these nightmares!

Well okay, so I'll stay away from G2 Megatron (I got the War Within version anyway) but the rest of the reviews seem pretty positive. Would you care to explain what's so 'nightmarish' about them?

I cant find any reviews...wheres a link?

I only have a Tit Rodimus and a Tit Soundwave. I love em, specially Rodmius. Soundwave isnt very poseable and his legs are a bit of a problem, but he, like Rodomus are lots of fun to transform and, well, theres always that lovely die-cast to think of!

I want to get a G1 Magnus but they are indeed very VERY heard to find.

Ha, ha, you said Tit.

I am in love with the Titanium line. It's an affordable source of characters in molds that I never thought we would see. I wish new figures came out more often, but my wallet appreciates it more this way. The Megatron from the 1st wave looks pretty craptacular, but the WW Megs seems like it will make up for it. His alt- mode made be a little weak, but the robot mode seems spot on.

WW Grimlock would be excellent.

[TheCactus]

I heard some rumours about an upcoming Titanium WW Grimlock...

Just type 'transformers titanium reviews' into youtube search.

And yes, WW Megs does indeed make up for the G2 one. His alt mode is a bit weird, but it is pre-earth, so that kinda explains it.

I dont think i should say this here....but the guy who did the review for Tit Magnus is kinda hot...

[Judge Deliberata]

Wait...let me get this straight...they're doing a Titanium SHOCKWAVE?!




...

I...can't breathe.

You can't be talking about the long haired cockney geezer? Eew...

Yeah, he looks kinda dark and gothic, and i have a thing for girly looking guys.

Ive got Rodimus, Daiperwave and Magnus. So far the jury is still out for this line for me. Yes most of them look ok/very nice/like sex, but they all have serious posability problems (especilly daiperwave) and dont particularly like staying together. In short there is always something about them that anoys me. Oddly enough, dispite my dislike of the robot mode designs, this is NOT a complaint I'd aim at the move toys I've bought so far.

I suspect I was if not the first person to find him in the UK, deffinutly amongst the first (I knew he might be out, but i didnt actully think he was out yet at the time, no one had posted it on the forums at the time, anyway). Probably wont help but I found him at the Metro Center Argos, near Gateshead.

Every argos near me is next to useless. I guess i will have to pay a fortune for him off ebay if i ever find an auction for him AND have the money to spare at the same time.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Just wait.
The Argos near me, didnt have squat for ages after the tits suposedly came out. But eventuly, they came, and eventully I bought. (I dont go to the one I got magnus from all that often.)

[YouFearGalvatron]

I love the Titanium 6" line.

Jetfire, Rodimus, Scourge, Starcream...MUST HAVES.

DiaperWave...eh, not so much.

I want my G1 Magnus, damnit!

[TheCactus]

The Ebay auctions I found for G1 Magnus were all pretty reasonable, plus I think amazon.co.uk has him for about £20. And you could always try Forbidden Planet, that's where I saw him last.

[TheCactus]

Also, I just had another look at the youtube reviews and I'd like to retract my statement about the reviewer guy- on second inspection he's far more dark and gothic and less greasy and geezerish than I realised.

But to get him to the States is another 20. The U.K. has been getting a lot of items released there before the States recently. It started with Alt. Ravage, and has steadily increased from there.

I'm not complaining, just something I have noticed.

Id hardly class TWO tfs as a lot of items myself, and didnt magnus come out about the same time in some parts of the US?

[Sonray]

Yeah i retract my statement about paying a fortune for him on ebay. I found multiple buy it now auctions, all very reasonable and easy on the wallet. If only i hadnt spent a fortune on materials for my kitbash project, id buy one!

[TheCactus]

Oh wow, you can get RiD Prime! That's my new shopping list sorted then...

1: RiD Optimus Prime
2: WWi Ultra Magnus (i know we've been talking about G1 but the WWi mold is just so cool)
3: Thundercracker, Starscream or Sunstorm (whichever I can get first)
4: Soundwave (just for Laserbeak)

Isnt RID prime that dreadful fire engine?

[kirbenvost]

Erm... Fire Engine, yes... Dreadful? Most people don't think so.

[Sonray]

Really? But he's a fire engine....thats like the farthest thing from primes original alt form as you can get sicne hes always been a truck cab. I thought people hated that version.

[kirbenvost]

I dunno, a fire truck is fairly close to me, it's still a big red truck. Not the same, but not too different (like a Dodge Ram).

A lot of people (on this forum anyway) actually really enjoy him, he's a really cool figure with a lot of play value. He's interesting and unique, but still a great nod to the Prime of old. In a lot of ways, he's one of the best.

Hmm, i might have to take a second look at him then.
