Cobo, that was an awesome reaction/haul post.

Star Wars: I got some stuff, but it's all older. The only really new thing I have is a Kylo Ren lightsaber, and I haven't gotten a smaller figure since I was in middle school I think.

Grotusque is the shizzles! Best Monsterbot IMHO and one of the best TR figures there was! Monsterbots are so cool!

He has such a nice premium feel to him. The bro and I had him as kids, and I never quite got him. But now that I'm old and more excepting of the strange and wonderful, the unexplainable, I really love this update throw back to one of the weirdest bits of TF design. The nostalgia for this fig is strong.

Ya the psychotic completionist side of my has a small amount of the ragrets.

I did nab a Slugslinger though and it also has a premium feel going on. I should do a pictorial when I get home. A very sharp space jet mode and a nice addition to my 4th string "seekers". Now to track down Pink fire.

Look who I found hidden in the bottom of my spaceship today!



By spaceship, I mean Walmart.

Noice! Can't wait to see more. That guy is one my BoS list. Hope I get the deal you got on him too

I forgets, do you have Skyward Shadow?

I'm curious to see how they compare

Glad to see you're getting a bit of that 3.75 Star Wars bug again. It's even better at clearance prices. Grotesque looks great too!

I second that!

And if he's available, have all 3 TR Phase Sixers reprazent, Cobra-Kai-Botron!

Bodrock! That's a fun idea!

But,

Who are the 3 Phase Sixers? Overlord, Sky Shadow, and............. Sixshot?

Yup, Sixshot! He was in fact the first Phase-Sixer to appear in the comics; and for a while implied to be the only one before the concept was expanded a little in LSOTW.

Holy cats, I missed a day and a half of notifications!! Curse you boards!!

Also, HOOOOOOOOOORAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYY!!! Why? Why not!!

NOICE!!! That guy is a buy on sight for for me too!! It's just him, ramhorn, Slugslinger, and the clones for the line, and he is the one I want the most!

Can't wait to hear your thoughts. Oh and also, you totally gotta do the duocon switch: swap the pants bro!

PANTS SWAP!!!

Also, where dat review is?!

Anyone looking for Sluggo, hit up your walmarts. I've been to 3 different ones in the last two days and I've seen him at all 3 and in generous supply. Also spotted Overlord today as well.

ZACTLY! I don't know if I've seen the three together yet.

Hopefully Overlord shows up in Oregon soon -- but still no Misfire!

And here I thought the Phase Sixers were Slugslinger, Misfire, and Triggerhappy

I'm kidding I knew who they are.

Well dang, guess I'll go to work early and hope to see them!

Holy man, a month and a half with no activity??

Cobo my man, you doing good? Did ya find yourself any new cool figures lately?

Explains why I've been doing all the Mod work lately.
(But yeah, it's not like Cobes to not check in so hopefully everything's going okay)

Damn! It has been a while, but i also was a page behind somehow

Grotusque and Star Wars! Nice! I'm close to falling down the rabbit hole on those SHFiguarts Stary Wasry folk. New Hope Vader was just reissued

Yeah, where u at, Cobo Kai?

What's on your Xmas list(s)? My wife doesn't really wanna know (hint: ALL TRANSFORMERS)....but mine:
1. PotP Prime Master Metalhawk
2. PotP Prime Master Cloudburst
3. G1 Bludgeon (I wish)
4. TR Misfire (en route!)
5. TR Overlord (en route for my son)
6. PotP Optimus (mebbe)

Non-TF:
-Weezer: Pinkerton (LP)
-To become independently wealthy.

It appears we've all been neglecting the Collect-o-tron!! I feel ashamed for all of us.

He's been spotted elsewhere though!!

Hmm..SH FiguArts Shaj?! C'mon man!! How about that MAEFX Phasma? CHROME!!

That's a nice list there Bodrock!! I've been name-dropping Trypticon, Overlord, and Sixshot HARD as well as PotP Rodimus Prime

I almost got TR Trypticon the other day....but couldn't pull the trigger @ $150 (still hoping he shows up at Ross for $80 or less!). I then went to my fave vintage store and bought G1 Doubledealer instead -- he waa complete, NM, and drew me in for some reason. I think I got a thing for bots who play both sides (like Punch/Counterpunch).

Or I wanted my first G1 Powermaster -- so why not one who's got two engines? ;p

Let's hope we see the rest of the PotP line soon!

Hey y'all!

Yup! Yup! All Good D!

And you bet I have.



Some of that is birthday haul. Pre-orders come to call. And then some successful use of DCPIs and sloothery.

Got a few things in the mail this week.

Sup bod! Honestly, there weren't many toys to begin with, but upon return from Thanksgiving travels, I came home to find my PC wouldn't boot! So apparently a new computer is my list.

Yeah, sorry Chief. I have been absent lately, and admittedly slack in my duties. But, for good reason!

You all know, I think, that my main occupation right now is the day to day care of the Tronettes, but I also freelance for a small film production studio here. They produce a lot of animated work, and I beef up their art department as an illustrator. The fella's from the studio and I have been putting in our own time every Friday for over a year. And, almost every Tuesday night right here in the 'Tron til 3 AM developing our own OG cartoon concept.
The last few months have been the final push to finish our 4 min teaser/pilot. A SIZZLE REEL if you will? Our deadline was CTN (Creative Talents Network). An animation industry specific trade show that took place 2 weeks ago out in L.A.
The project got a great response from the folks at the show and some really good contacts were made. We slapped it up on youtube when we we got home, and have a Kickstarter campaign coming to see if we can't finish the next 4 minutes and complete the first episode.

So since y'all are some of my most favorite sci-fi action adventure pals, I figure I outta show it to you!



I once heard Chuckdawg say he didn't get view counts from imbedded links, sooooo... ima jus leave this right here incase any of you fine homies wanna pad a few views. You know? Help a brutha out!

Great trailer there, Cobo! I definitely want to know & see more.

I thought the music and comic-panel style with animation worked very well. The Main makes me think Bionic Commando Strider with a bit of Contra -- BAD ASS, man. And robits! You know we like them.

I hope you had a great Thanksgiving last week (you live in Murica, rite?) and quality times with the Tronettes!

I always luv seeing hauls. I'm barely only collecting deluxe TFs and vinyl records at this point. Would it be weird to want to open a record shop just so I could decorate it with my Transformers (no, they are NOT for sale)?
