I laughed at the convo going on in here, but in all seriousness, every Tin Toy I've seen in stores says "adult collectors only" even though the box also say for ages 8+ on them. In fact some stores I've been in refuse to sell them to anyone under 13. So there are toys meant for adult collectors out there.

Not that I'm saying Transformers should have such a label, but if it means getting certain figures Hasbro wouldn't otherwise make, why the hell not.

I'm guessing that's what the Masterpiece line i ment to represent.

I seriously doubt we'll see them again. For example, anyone in here ever see "Big"? If you have, you know what I'm referring to.

"I don't get it. It turns from a building into a robot, right? Well, what's fun about that? What's so fun about playing with a building? That's not any fun!"

I'd forgotten that. Idiot. He's so wrong.

yeah, I first saw that movie when I was about 5 and I wanted one.

Has anyone else noticed that this sky scraper has been well erected?

Me too. Hell, I'd still buy one if they made it.

You know, in building mode that thing would be quite useful. I've been looking for some buildings that are to scale with Deluxe Transformers.

I do imagine some pretty cool pictures of battle scenes with ol' Empire State Building-atron in the background.

I can't believe you brought up the building from "Big". I used to think that thing was a recommissioned Gobot Base. More of a Chinese Knockoff. I don't consider that thing to be anywhere near the likes of Fort Max, Metroplex, or Scorponok.

It is funny, but not nearly what I was looking for as far as insightful info. I haven't really given the Cyberverse Ark a second glance. It seems too "kiddy", and the Ark only transformed in Animated...which brings me back to my original statement of Omega Supreme.

As an example, the GI Joe Fortress from the 80's, the massive Aircraft Carrier, and I seem to recall the new one was The Pitt, from the movie. They seem to still be making massive toys for kids. As far as toys have come, why couldn't Hasbro give us Base Formers with decent articulation and features? I'd love to see not just reissues, but full on rebuilds of those figures for this generation that display the developments that have come into play.

Try getting the Encore Metroflex (the real one btw)

And, didn't DOTM release the Ark? Though more on a micromaster scale can answer your baseformer fix.

I pray to the Flying Spaghetti Monster that TT release G1 Headmaster Scorponok, now that would make my collecting fix complete!

and I pray to the "ones who dwell beyond the veil" they don't!! as I don't want my Scorponok de-valued in anyway I love him so much.

If they do they should do him with missile launchers and laser for his tail which i think would work really well.

I am actually really shocked they didn't do a WFC Trypticon and Omega supreme as a combo pack maybe had them metroplex sized. They would have worked really well.
