Transformers Thread

so will botcon be at florida from now on? I thought it jumped from place to place. a friend of mine is going next year and they invited me, I am so hype!

No, they always move it. Inside rumor is that it’s going back to California next year. My bet is that the PA/MD Atlantic area is the next port of call.

Yea, I’ve been wanting to go to one for a while, but I’d rather wait until it hits PA/MD/NY/NJ.

Let it stay east coast. It’s cheaper for me

I started a Facebook fanpage for my custom work: Mr. Dremel

Does anybody know where to download that transformers techno track?

It’s from this video. The one with soundwave breakdancing.

After a failed attempt at locating that techno song myself, I just did the next best thing and ripped the audio from the video… http://www.sendspace.com/file/oraqbt

I picked up WFC Bumblebee at TRU lastnight. Haven’t transformed him into his alt mode yet, but the bot mode is wonderful. Loads of articulation and the kibble is almost non-existent. I like that the red blades aren’t too long and they can be folded in without making the figure look awkward or cumbersome to pose a la ROTF Leader Prime.

I wish I could find the newer TF’s in my area. all I can get are movie figs from a few waves back. I just want Bludgeon dammit!

That may be true about be, however, Leader ROTF Prime is probably the most Accurate version of a mass release figure we have seen to date.

I am gonna hunt for WFC Prime today, but note an all out sweep. TRU is about 25 miles away from me. It’s not ā€œthatā€ serious :lol: Besides, Wal-Mart is probably a dollar cheaper anyway, and I have 2 within 3 miles of my house.

what wfc toys are out? fucking loving the game and character designs…
best tf game to date and a really, really fucking good shooter.

Well, the WFC/Gens. toys were (apparently) supposed to come out sometime in August, but there was a rumor last week that they’d be released a lot sooner than that. And said rumor turned out to be true.

With the release of the game and the positive reviews, Hasbro might as well ride the Hype train.

Cracka, stop stallin and just buy it for your PS3. THE HIGH COUNCIL COMMANDS IT!!!

To all of the PS3 owners in this thread, send me a PSN friend request.

I already have DK and King9999 on my list.

so most of you guys in this thread are on ps3? I don’t mind picking it up for that, just was waiting to see what people were getting it for.

my vent crew is gonna start to wreck house on pc. we’ve got around 6 dedicated players now, all learning different aspects, and fucking loving it. I haven’t played too much scout yet, but I’m really digging scientist and whatever the tank class is called. considering there’s no integrated voice on pc, I have a good feeling that coordinated attacking is going to annihilate the majority of competition out there.

some cool shit I found while playing with scientist was if you get downed, while still being in the ā€œfireā€ state, you can use your repair ray on people that try to revive you. that way they’re getting a nice counter heal from taking flak while they’re risking the heal for you. tanks are just FUN. as long as you can work around the mobility issue, you can have an absolute blast playing them.

but yeah, easily the best tf game ever…and definitely my personal favorite shooter ever (don’t get too critical I don’t play too many of them :rofl:) but this is really one great game.

I love WFC, shooting down Autobots with Megs fusing cannon feels… well like it always should have been :wgrin:

For anyone wanting to follow Botcon, here’s a live blog of the Takara-Tomy panel: http://www.tfw2005.com/transformers-news/conventions-15/botcon-2010-takara-tomy-panel-coverage-170040/

Man, I sent you one forever ago. It sat for about 3 months :lol:

I’ll send you another.

DK, I sent you one, but I couldn’t get online last night :sad:

We need an SRK Clan :badboy:

I will probably end up getting it for PS3, as it is my preferred console of choice. But being able to have custom soundtracks, such as the animated TF movie soundtrack playing along the game is very tempting for the 360.

^^^Has anybody on PS3 tried this to see if you can play tracks?
