Im not sure if I'm aloud to do this or not, so if its against the rules, mods please lock, and sorry in advance.

If you know any other good TF forums, please post them here. Not that there's anything wrong with Seibertron, but just because its easier and faster to get news and heads-ups on TF toys if I check more than 1 forum. Especially with the whole Deluxe issue going on, I want to be able to look at different forums for different news and updates.

So please post any other TF toy forums you know of. Thanks!

Usually Seibertron is one of the best when it comes to news :lol:

But TFW2005 is alright...

I don't think we have an official rule against this, but it kind of just breaks my heart to see you asking about this here on the forums that we have worked so hard to build for you guys, DvDqNoC. I guess I'd like to know what it is that you think is missing here so that we can possibly see if there is some way to accommodate you.

Here's how confident that I am that you'll want to stay here. I'll give you a quick run down on some of this site's competitors. Seibertron.com is one of the top two Transformers sites in the world so it doesn't get much bigger than this. TFW2005.com is our direct competitor for overall content. Tformers.com is one of the other big sites ... they're always running neck-to-neck with Seibertron.com and TFW2005.com when it comes to TF news. I started posting on tfarchive.com WAY back in the day before Seibertron.com was ever a twinkle in my eye (by the way, my site has been around since June 2000). Transfans.net is another staple site in the community, though it's primarily made up of Europeans I believe. I really like the Lukis brothers who own Unicron.com. They've been around for ever and are just great guys. You SHOULD stop by their site. TFU.info is a site that gives Seibertron.com's Vector Sigma Database a run for it's money. Very informative but I'm looking to change all of that later this year. tfmaster.com is a big kitbash community that is due to merge with Seibertron.com sometime in the near future (I took over tfmaster.com shortly before the previous owner, Bill (aka TFmaster) passed away earlier this year). Tfclub.com is the resident TF site from behind the Great Firewall of China. tfkenkon.com was the original incredible photogallery site until I became obsessed with taking photos of all of my Transformers figures. TheTransformers.net is a pretty good group of chaps ... primarily a UK site. Our mates down under have a website called "TheyAreAmongUs.com" ... clever domain name for a toy line about robots in disguise. transformertoys.co.uk is another big UK website ... probably best known for their galleries of the famous Lucky Draw figures that I have no interest in owning at this point in my life.

I think I mentioned all of the major players. If I missed anyone, feel free to list them. But the bottom line of my message above, DvDqNoC, is that I'd like you to stay here and hang out with us on Seibertron.com. :D

Welcome to the site by the way!

There is only Seibertron. All others pale by comparison.

That's been my biggest adjustment here, the forums layout. I'm so used to posting on IGN and some other forums that use the Invision Power Board software that it took a bit to adjust to posting here. I really haven't found any reason to go elsewhere.
