New Galleries: Takara Tomy Transformers Prime Arms Micron AM-20 Ironhide with Iro

Since I passed on the Hasbro mold several years ago, this may actually make a pretty good Ironhide for my Classics... shelf. The grin is a little cheesy but other than that, looks good.

Another FIRRIB RIRFIB conversation. Awesome. Because preaching to the converted is really going to change their opinion after all this time.

I think everyone's doing alright in this discussion. No hard feelings here!

Everyone is entitled to their opinion. Heck, I'm even a flip-flopper on the issue. I used to be on the FIRRIB boat long ago before I changed to FIBRIR way of thinking.

Too complicated. I'm of the FIBRIBEIR persuasion: Frenzy is Black/Blue, Rumble is Black/Blue, Enemy is Red

We're pleased to announce that Transformers Prime Beast Hunters Deluxe Wave 3 has been added the galleries! This wave features the latest dragon to join the Predacon ranks, Skystalker, Dreadwing's debut in the Deluxe Class complete with Beast Hunters armor, and last but not least the heavily retooled Beast Hunters Ratchet. Enjoy the full galleries by click any of the links or images found below.


Transformers Prime Beast Hunters Skystalker






Transformers Prime Beast Hunters Dreadwing






Transformers Prime Beast Hunters Ratchet

Skystalker just isn't worth the price. I'd rather commit to much better molds, like the Thrilling 30 line.

Might get Dreadwing, only for the sake of getting Dreadwing in toy form. Y'know, since he never even made one appearance at any of my local retailers.

Ratchet... that orange sherbert and weapon just doesn't work on him. Great, now I want orange sherbert.

I notice that Grimwing is on the site's banner. Does that mean we're getting galleries of him and Ultra Magnus too?

As much as I don't want to defend that AWFUL retool, look at the drill...now paint most of it gold. They missed a prime chance at another Gurren Lagann homage with that one.

Instead, we get two Beast Wars Dinobot homages in one (regular Dinobot and Transmetal 2 Dinobot).

The weapon (regular Beast Wars Dinobot) and the head (Beast Wars Dinobot II), if there's no one who gets it.

I noticed, just didn't feel like pointing out.

As I look at Ratchet more and more, this thought comes to me: you know what he really looks like to me?



Not sure why the first Ratchet mold doesn't remind me of Team Fortress 2's the Medic, but Beast Hunters does.

The homage could have been done REALLY well, it truly could have. But instead of making the character Dinobot/II, they tried to make it...RatchetBot one-and-a-half.

No side-by-side pics with Beast Wars Dinobot in the galleries ?

Didn't know that one.
