Oh that Blaster only has the appearance of a laptop. His functionality is purely as a USB hub. You won't see any of those in shops, only online. They weren't mass release on shelves I don't think.

As far as watches go, it wouldn't have to be a Transformer because I'd settle for just about anything. It seems like they used to have video game watches, and it'd be cool if I could find one of those? If my memory's correct, do they still make those? I know on The Price is Right they'll have space age smart watches that are way beyond my budget.

I have an idea for a theme song if they ever went with nothing but triple changers and started a series based on the idea. Triple changers triple change their bodies to destroy the forces of their enemies. Does anyone have an opinion? I know it's a bit of a rip-off from the G1 theme song, but I'm not looking to get rich off it. That's only part of it; and of course, they could use the rest of the theme song to fit in.

I just found out that Frank Welker who did the voice of Megatron did an episode of The Simpsons called In Marge We Trust. I have no idea who lives he did in that episode wanted. If anyone could help me with getting the Gobot Bug Bite, I'd appreciate it. I did a post on the buy/sell/trade forum, but nobody's responded.

That's neat. The thing about voice acting when it comes to celebrities I've seen is that I have a hard time figuring out who did the voice of who. There was a time when George Takei was in an episode, but I couldn't figure out who he was doing. Plus there was a time when I thought he was in an episode, but he wasn't. I know my favorite Star Trek actor Leonard Nimoy has done voice acting for Transformers.

For anyone who loves triple changers, do you have a favorite alternate mode? I noticed Overcracker's favorite Transformer is Blitzwing, and I was wondering if he prefers the tank mode or the jet mode. When it comes to the Decepticon Ravage I have I like the tank better; and with Astrotrain, I like the train.

It looks like I'll be getting an Autonomous Robotic Organic triple changer within a month because someone dropped a G1 Sandstorm off at the comic book store I go to today, and the only reason I didn't get it was because he didn't have a price tag on it yet. He said to call him in a couple days to get a price and that he'd hold it for me. The guy who dropped it off sold it and quite a few other Transformers and an old Super Gobot that turned into a truck for $15.

I don't suppose they could consider some kind of online Transformer raffle, could they? As long as it's possible to pay without using a debit or credit card, I'll have no trouble buying tickets.

I noticed that sometimes a triple changer will be a double changer in other versions. Broadside is a triple changer now and was when he came out back when they were doing G1 Transformers; but when he was a mini-con, he was a double changer. I remember how I earned the G1 Broadside. I was in the hospital because they just found out I had juvenile diabetes, and I asked my mom if she would reward me with a Transformer if I learned to give my own shots, and she agreed. She said the Transformer would be no bigger than a triple changer; and since she had already paid for Broadside a long time ago in a toy store in a mall, I went with that one. I wasn't as impressed with Broadside as I was with most of the others because I was able to figure out how to transform him without opening the box, but I was still grateful.

Does anyone else have stories as to how they managed to earn Transformers before they were old enough to work and get a job? I considered it a pain when I was diagnosed with this chronic disease, but at least it came with a fringe benefit.

Are Blaster and Soundwave repaints of each other? I'm talking about the Titan Returns figures.

Yes. Some small differences in moulding, but they are pretty much repaints.

Then I'll probably get Soundwave since I got Decepticon Rumble. I would've preferred the Autobot if I hadn't.

I bought Laserbeak this week. I'd like to get Chromedome; but the store didn't have him, which sucks. They have Last Knight Transformers, and I would've bought Autobot Hound if he wasn't a one step Transformer. I want Transformers with more than one step.

I had to look at a YouTube walk through video for Laserbeak because I was having a hard time understanding the printed instructions when it came to turning him into a vehicle, and it turns out there's a fourth mode you can do. Can someone point to me​ a link to order Chromedome from Walmart please? I'd like to get him really bad.

Better stick with the one-step changers then. >:oP

But I like Transformers with more than one step, and I didn't have trouble with Decepticon Rumble or Astrotrain. I made a mistake because it's Mindset I'm having trouble with, not Steelshot.

Here's a few others that I don't remember the names of and need help with figuring out how to transform them, most​ of which are scout class Transformers with the exception of one triple changer. There's a motorcycle (not Arcee since Arcee was easy to figure out, and it could be a Decepticon), an Autobot ship, a dune buggy, and a biplane. I've got the triple changer in jet mode, and it's a Decepticon with two propellers on each wing. If I could find out the names of all these, that​ would help because I could​ do a search for YouTube videos for each​ one.

Try YouTube. Lots of transformation videos there.

I know there are, but it's the names of the Transformers themselves that I don't remember.

Well I found the name of the biplane Transformer is Ransack, and I watched the YouTube video that did a good job of showing how to turn him back into a robot. I also found out the name of the ship Transformer is Depthcharge. As I was watching the video on how to transform Ransack, the guy said something that doesn't sound accurate. He said that Ransack showed up when flight was introduced to the Transformers; but the first three Transformer planes were Starscream and two repaints, Thundercracker and Skywarp. Why did he say that flight was introduced to the Transformers with the Ransack figure?

You'll need more description or pics to identify the others. There's a lot of scouts with tgose alt modes.

In movie continuity, ransack is an old transformer. Like jetfire. Starscream an co are a lot younger than him.

The dune buggy is black on the bottom and yellow on the top with a black hood. He's got a Decepticon symbol on the roof, and there are two missiles on the back that aren't meant to be detached in any way, and they're grey and black. The motorcycle is blue and grey with green flames on the blue areas. They're both scout class Transformers.

Do you want to sell me the shield to him? That only leaves two more to identify, the dune buggy and the motorcycle. A person could just give me a list of all scout class Transformers that turned into those things if they knew them.

You could always try Seibertron.com's very own galleries.

Sure, it'll be a lot of searching, but think of all the figures and characters you'll discover! The things you'll learn!
