Those look nice. Especially the contructicons.

Besides FIRRIB, (repaint sometime?) these are really cool looking. Too bad I can never find them anywhere.

The toy colors, but not the cartoon ones

Exactly. The right way.

Oh boy.... For gods sake, RIBFIR!

Either way, these guys are super cute, wish I could find them.

Well technically in the Japanese version of the cartoon, Frenzy was the blue guy and Rumble was the red guy (thus resulting in Rumble barely showing up and Frenzy being the main humanoid cassette).

Honestly although the overwhelming evidence in canon points towards FIBRIR I prefer FIRRIB, simply because that was how I remember them (I only ever saw the cartoon on videotape in the early 2000s, long after G1 was a thing- and because I never saw the RID cartoon nor did I know it existed, I always thought it was weird how the cartoon Transformers had absolutely no relation to the toys- thus beginning my history of assigning "home grown" personalities to my TFs). Also, it just seems to suit them better.

Now if only someone would make a Frenzy, Rumble and Ravage for Cybertron Soundwave so I can have a Soundwave with decent, non-floppy minions that doesn't turn into a goddamn tape deck...

On topic, these look kinda cool. I'm worried about how well they'll age though- isn't vinyl very squishy and prone to drying out (and also the paint flaking)?

Ok man there's a lot of transformers that have odd portends and can't transform but its grown on us i just have to say that amd this message is pretty random

so buzzsaw and frenzy are chase figs... damnit D:

We are bringing out the second to last Toy Fair US 2015 galleries. This round has us looking at The Loyal Subjects Vinyl Figures. Check out these fun little guys as The Loyal Subjects display past waves and the current wave 3. Click on any of the images to view the entire gallery.

One of the key 1984 characters is a 1 out of 96 chase figure. Another is 1 out of 48.

I'm not buying damn master cases and selling them. That's work. I really, really don't like this business model when the chase figures aren't things like the Sunstorms and variants of other characters like they were in the past. Not that I'm uber completionist on these, quite the contrary, I only get a handful of them on impulse and the characters that I like. Were they not blind boxed/chase figure BS land residents, then maybe that'd be different. They also cost too much.

Basically, this weekend I learned that the vinyl figure collecting thing which has overlapped with Transformers on these and Hikari or whatever is just not a scene I enjoy in the slightest.

Though, I will still buy that Wheeljack because it's cool.
