“Chun-Li…nooooooooo!” :rofl:

Paging SMB

hears the overpriced repaint pager Wow! $140.00 for two repainted Classics Starscream? Someone’s smoking CRACK! :smokin::tdown:

Smokin’ crack while laying in my ‘pile of money bed’ waiting for my raptor egg omlett.

Ballin’-est shit eva right here.

:pleased:

I wanna be ballin’

That should be a Dinobot Omlette, fo sho!

you should know that only the RICHEST, SCARIEST super-nerds have earned the right to be ballin’.

Just got the BotCon 2006 set yesterday. :slight_smile: It’s a set of the Beast Wars cast prior to their landing on Earth. So, Cybertron alt modes, etc.

It’s shockingly nice. I wish I had been able to get it sooner. Now I have an 800-1000 dollar road ahead of me to pick up the other 5 characters which were convention exclusives to complete the cast.

Pics. Now.

I heard of this set but never saw what the final product looked like.

so I was cleaning up my room and putting away my tf’s and I noticed how broad the quality of them are. I usually keep the G1 and more sentimental figures on display so I didnt bother with them and mostly put away my RID,armada,energon and cybertron. so I was wondering what you think are the highs and lows of a particular line.

armada: jetfire, overload, tidalwave>>>>>>>sideswipe (fuck you sideswipe), scavenger, prime w/trailer
energon: energon had so many great figures and a ton of references G1 that its a personal favorite of mine. galvatron, prime w/wing saber, wheeljack, towline>>>>>jetfire, piece of shit hot shot, cyclonus, ironhide (but the hound repaint was hardcore)
cybertron: when its good its really good and when its bad its fucking PAINFUL. prime, starscream, primus, sideways, soundwave(even though mine has a bum shin hinge so he just falls over), those cybertron defense guys >>>>>>thundercracker, megatron and his stupid floppy feet, vector prime (the legs dont line up right on mine so it gets fucked up in jet mode), menasor, metroplex

this post was pointless

In other toy news, it looks as if eBay will be cracking down on the sale of TF knockoffs. It could be for a variety of reasons. There’s a blurb on TFW2005 about it here.

Galvatron looks even better now, esp. his alt mode colors.

My custom…

Figured I’d provide more shots of the alt mode. It isn’t much. And the transformation is ridiculously easy. I was never really a fan of the alt mode, and quite honestly, my work had more to do with giving him normal arms and then transplanting the originals to the back. That little mechanism I made has a lot of working joints so it’s pretty flexible. But as I’ve said, the alt mode doesn’t offer a whole lot (at least to me). Robot mode is where this custom truly shines.

Decepticon sympathisers?

PC gone mad!

Oh my fucking God. We’ve really become pussies, haven’t we?

Thankfully that was over in the UK, and we know they’re all ponces.
That’s pretty retarded right there.

In positive news, I just got about ~40 Diaclone driver-scale figures from my mom randomly. =D

:u: Best mom ever

Why is Dinobot included in this cast? He didn’t jump ship until after the Pred’s and Maximal’s landed on Earth.

Wow. That’s pretty gay. I probably would have given the guy who complained a big ol’ FUCK YOU. There’s nothing offensive about what he was wearing (from what was described), people today are just assholes.

A what? You mean those tiny gold/silver figures? Where does a mom find something like that?

The box sets are usually a few of each side. His inclusion in the box wasn’t meant to necessarily infer his inclusion on the team at that point.

You could get Megatron and Waspinator at the convention as a bonus set to buy.

Now you can get them on eBay for $400+ on a good day.
