TRANSFORMERS TOYS discussion thread

I could go for the Ramjet.. Even though I have the original, the mould is nigh on identical to the cartoon/comic representation.
So I guess im after the seeker classics and the G1 dinobots (again) so Ramjet and Grimlock'd be worth it for me, but screw a Magnus based on classics Prime though. That I can live with out.

So if Magnus is no longer with Skywarp, hopefully we'll start to see Skywarp about on his own. Cause paying nearly double for Skywarp just cause of a big repaint would suck so much arse.

Don't get your hopes up, Hasbro has revealed that Magnus will all be the only way to get classic Skywarp. Sorry man.

Feck.

E-bay may then be my only hope.

I have the ORIGINAL Ultra Magnus; a birthday present from 1986. He's in prime condition, undamaged, with all the pieces. I even have the original box with the styrofoam. I'm looking at it right now.
How much would you give me for it, out of curiousity?

Play with it before you ship it to him. Hahaha.

I still have mine.

Im not a collector, But I wouldn't let mine go in good condition like that for less than a hundred dollars.

I f*cking love my hybrid Black Convoy, he's so deliciously Deathmetal.

Hmm?

You've not heard or heard of Napalm Death?

SO has it been settled on whether Starscream actually shot at Megatron or not now that the DVD is out?

I say there's no possible way of telling being that he looked just like all of the other Jets and all we see is A JET shoot at Megatron.

There's no indication that it was Starscream.

I've heard of the band Napalm Death, but I thought you were referring to a TF by that name.

Yeah, I've re-watched it several times, I can't tell for shit. Who cares, since I believe that if he would've taken a shot at him, they would've, ya know, payed at least alittle detail to it. We shouldn't have to figure/guess a(n) (semi)important event in a movie, it should be shown to us.

Here is my collection, finally! It's small, but I wouldn't know what to do without them. Most of these kept me going through rough times growing up. As a kid I spent alot of time in the hospital because of my OsteoGenesis, so some of these kept my sanity from slipping.

In the back row, we have:

Movie Starscream

Movie Starscream G1 repaint

20th Anniversary Optimus Prime

Green Repaint of Grimlock (He's alittle hard to see, but he's the green T-Rex there)

Movie Starscream Thundercracker repaint

Movie Optimus

Front row:

Barricade (In car form for some reason...)

Black Convoy

Deluxe Optimus Prime

Classic Optimus Prime

I also have a few Die-Cast figures, I have Starscream, Optimus and War Within Optimus.

Two lollipop holding keychains in the shape of Prime and Megatron's face pictured there at the bottom and some Lunchable snacks TF goodies.

But my pride and joy!

My Black Convoy/Scourge/Nemesis Prime T.H.S. - 02B!

The box it came with was autographed by some guy who's hopefully important, and has and insane level of detail. He's my favorite!

I'm tempted to buy a Takara Encore Optimus....I don't know...

Cool...!

So evil roller has....pink.....seats....?

Hmmmmm.

So THATS how evil rolls.... 😖hifty:

They're actually red, but yeah. Hahahaah.

Looks like pink in the pic.... Same colour as Nemesis Prime's left window in the pic.
They definitely seemed to go for pastille colours there.

Must be the lighting or something.
Either that or your camera has pink eye.. 😛

BTW I noticed several differences between your MP Prime and mine. The eyes look like they are of a different more-matte like material, and the red on the body work is lighter, the stacks look like they are the painted variety. There is the battle damage thing on mine (which I partially removed) And the white stripe around the torso and arms is like a darker grey/silver on mine.
And the white continues to his "radiator grille" too where as its the chrome on mine.
Also like the original toy, mine has the Japanese like signal light details on the feet, whereas the new edition there has different US freindly signals.
This confirms what I'd thought previously, that yours is the Movie anniversary Prime, which would also explain the different arm-communicator details too.

Interesting.
I Like the look of it. Very anime freindly.

Oh, yeah. I figured this out as well. Hahaha, I thought you already knew way before me.

But yeah, I had a choice to buy the one that you have with battle damage and the 20th anniversary movie one, and I went for the US friendly one because of the battle damage that the other onehad. It looked,....stupid....

Yeah I removed most of mine. Just left it around the knee joints and stuff where it looked kinda appropriate and cool.

Well its convinced me that it'd be worth picking your edition up if I see it for reasonable money as there are enough differences to warrant it. 🙂

The 20th Anniversary dvd edition comes with an autobot matrix shaped base that plays voice clip of optimus rehearsing several lines from the first episode.
