Only if your lifestyle supports that kind of high dollar purchasing power.

I'm a terrible person to ask though.

I buy everything.

Depends on if you like his beast mode enough to put up with his forced robot mode. He also has th eability to attach to Blackout's underside (in vehicle mode) and have Scorpy's pincers spin along with Blackout's main rotor, though it's my opinion that it helps Scorpy more than it does Blackout.

I'd say if you already don't have Blackout, go to Toys R' Us and get the Desert Attack Pack if you want Scorpy that bad. Otherwise, I think he's best skipped.

Seriously, could everyone leave this poor guy alone. Its not his fault he made a mistake!
As for Scorponok, I've heard that his scorpion mode is very good, but that his robot mode sucks (no surprise there :D )

Did I miss something? How's it not his fault? He made a clear distinction between Voyager and Leader and as such he was either lying or privee to something totally awesome. I like to believe the former because it makes me look marginally less stupid.

Lets just say He looked cool

Postby Ash » Tue Jul 10, 2007 8:31 am

He was not a voyager since i know that because he was displayed in his robot mode AND Knowing as I have Voyager Ironhide and is really Dissapointed about his Stationary feet
AND he was much more detailed. But I alredy have Blackout.

Is your Blackout leader class too?

edit: seriously though, since you seem so convinced that you have a leader class Ironhide, could you do a little review for us? What are his gimmicks, how complex is his transformation, does he still have the guns looking weird in alt mode, etc. Do tell!

If I told you that I swore to heaven and hell, that a Nemesis Prime existed for the movie line and that I am the only person who has seen it...

and continued to tell you that it was out there...

would that be a mistake? or has it become something worse?

What about we start complaining about yours? He didn't make a mistake. He's either lying or this figure has been distributed by ninjas. No mistake.

The guy never said he had one! (at least I don't think he did) What he said was that he had seen one, he could be write, or he could be wrong. Chances are, if he was wrong, then he wasn't trying to lie to us as he has stuck around

There's a Nemesis Prime toy for the movie line! Yay! :D
Thing is though, he probably isn't the only one who has seen it, he could just be the only one from his country who thought we might be interested in knowing! He could have made a mistake, but come on, the thing is, Transformers are only a bunch of toys and some cartoons and 2 movies designed to sell toys. I love Transformers as much as you all do, but there is no need to pick on someone because of it

Or he could have seen what he thought was a Leader class Ironhide, or a real one for all I know and he could have then thought that we would be interested to know about it! And then some complete f######################################################################################################################### goes completely over the top, just down right insulting him, because he saw, or thought he saw, something we would be interested in!

He's made it quite clear that he knows the difference between a voyager and a leader. Not a mistake. A lie. Why the hell are you defending him?

Postby Optimus Frimal » Tue Jul 10, 2007 9:23 am

He has said that he knows the difference yes. But I belive that he did not lie, that if he is wrong then he got mistaken and that people should not be slagging him off because he made a mistake over a ************************** toy! :MAD: Anyway, I have said what I have wanted to and have no reason to continue this argument. If you want to continue, you can send me a PM :P

Dude, this and several other TF sites have outstanding news resources.

Now, there are like three ways fault can be passed out here:

1. Several sites with thousands of members could have somehow someway missed this important news event.

---Unlikely.

2. Random guy with random information could be wrong or mistaken.

---Very likely.

3. We can allow bad rumors to float about in a fandom that is known for knee-jerk reactions and jumping to conclusions.

---Not going to happen


The dude's bad information should be crushed, regardless of his feelings on the matter.

If I go around in some retarded way, swearing that reissue Megatron is in Toys R Us (US) right now, despite all possible evidence to the contrary, and someone didn't stop me and correct me.

Then those that let it go by would be at fault and not only that, they would be idiots.

Because somewhere, someone got their hopes up for nothing and wasted a trip to find things that don't exist.

Isn't the truth more important than allowing bad information to just slush about?

Why is this one guy's mistake so easily overlooked when he has been politely corrected at first, then persisted in his actions?

Damn it, I said I'd stop arguing now...
Right, I agree with most of your points, he should have been told that his info was wrong (which I'll admit it probably is) But, when was he politely corrected! The first two people to reply to his posts adressed the situation in the right way. But how is this being politely corrected

Autobot032 said:

Wow. We must post this to the front page, cuz damn man, I gots ta have me a Leader Class Ironhide. I want to be the first to own this non-existent toy. Oooh, sign me up for more of your lies and falsehoods, they entertain me, as only a troll with no life can do.

Thank you so much for being the suckfest that you are. You sir (or ma'am, or hell, could be a mix of both) win at the internets.

ROCK ON!

BTW, Mr. Tool...I did a currency conversion of Sri Lankan Rupees (LKR) and converted 11,000.00 into US Dollars (USD) and it was $98.8497 (to be exact) which is basically a hundred bucks.

1.) We know there's no Leader Class Ironhide. *BUZZ* Oooh you've already lost the grand prize.

Shall we continue?

2.) The Voyager Ironhide (which does exist) and is available in a few countries, no matter what the adjustment is, or the inflation...doesn't cost anywhere near $100.00 USD. *BUZZ* Oooh, lost the consolation prize as well!

Shall we continue? "Yes sir Bob, we've got one more prize for him to f*ck away!"

3.) Posting as you do is irritating, not to mention it's one of your first posts and you're already spilling bullsh*t everywhere. It's not welcome and not appreciated. You're here as a courtesy, given by the owners. You're not entitled to it. *BUZZ* Oooh. Lost even the home game. Wow.

What did he win? "Nothing! Absolutely nothing! Although we will sing Ash's theme song: "If I Only Had A Brain!" "

ALL RIGHTY! THANK YOU FOR WATCHING! GOOD BYE!

And, when did he keep on saying it was true, I looked at both his previous topics and haven't found him going on once.
Anyway, I really will stop arguing now...
You, know until someone else disagrees with me...

I keep hearing that from people. Before people get the figure they are all like "OMG! Scorponok sucks! He's rubbish!!! Look at that robot mode... because it sucks!!!" And then after they buy it they are like "Well... it wasn't too bad... I suppose... Okay!!! I give its brilliant! I love it!!!" Now, if only I could find one near me
