Thought the fun from Botcon 08 was over? Apparently not, Seibertron updates the Toy Gallery section once again with three new galleries! To view each, click on one of the links below.

Rodimus
Grimlock

And don't forget to check out the Japanese exclusive Galvatron General from Takara's Superlink series.

From left to right it's Superlink Galvatron (or TRU 2 pack Energon Megatron, whichever on Ryan picked up), Superlink Galvatron General and Botcon 08 Shattered Glass Heroic Megatron.

Man, I really want that Rodimus. His goatee is screaming "buy me".
Y'know, I've bought more expensive toys because of the seibertron galleries....

I should have the Predacons and possibly Megatron posted tonight. Started cropping the photos for Jazz last night. Need to finish cropping the photos for Prime.

I have to redo Starscream's photos this weekend. I haven't been satisfied with the lighting for him yet. I hate taking photos of primarily plain white plastic Transformers.

I'm really close to finishing the galleries for Henkei Astrotrain and Classics Tankor. I also pulled out e-Hobby Astrotrain (gray) and e-Hobby Overcharge to accompany these figures. I have finished taking photos of their vehicle modes ... just need to finish up their robot mode photos this evening.

If things go well, I'll continue launching a few new galleries per day over the next week. Once I finish taking photos of the figures that I've been working on, I'm going to go back to working on the G1 Sunstreaker and Sideswipe related galleries that I started before BotCon. Once I finish those, I'm planning on pulling out the Dinobot related figures once again that I started to work on last August since I can finish all of their galleries now that I own all of the WST Dinobots. Whew! That's a lot of upcoming galleries.

Not sure which direction I'll take at that point. I may or may not start working on the most recent Walmart exclusive movie galleries (Big Daddy and company). I didn't realize that Jolt used the Crosswise mold, which Jazz and Ricochet used. I think I'd like to finish up those galleries while I've got those molds out in my work area. After that, I'm not sure what I'll be working on.

Aaahh...Rodimus has arrived and the look is definitely one you should seriously consider dishing out for. The black and purple alone are enough, but the goatee is pretty fly.

Incidentally, I recommend switching Dark Rodimus' and Classics Rodimus' missiles around (purple for red, respectively)--the colors match better on the other character--wonder why they do that? Why not just give them the more pleasing color to begin with?

How much did you pay for yours?
And, unfortunately, I won't be buying much for awile.
Unemployed + debts to pay off first.

I was able to score one off of e-bay for just over $100.00 about a month ago. It's really the only figure I wanted from this year's set (as I plan on tracking down the new Nemesis Prime from SDCC or the Japanese exclusive instead of going with the purple Botcon repaint), and I didn't want to wait too long to find him... I suppose I could probably find him cheaper now, but I haven't checked recently...
