Transformers Thread

if they make all 6 pieces and it’s under $200, I’m sold.

My transformer toy-collecting fever has reached an all-time high recently. I’ve spent hours watching youtube toy reviews, searching ebay and toy webstores, and constantly wanting to go to retail stores… ARGH

Recently ordered the PerfectEffect Rumble, and the Crazydevy thighs. Finally spotted a WFC Megs. He’s much better than I had initially thought, especially after accenting some of the panel line detailing.

Classics “Turbo” Tracks Pictorial Review - I will own this Transformer

There is a new commercial of The Hub that features a closeup of Prime. He doesn’t have his mask (all of the time).

I am gonna make my first Kitbash attempt Scout Class Windcharger. It looks so close to my car that it will bother me if I don’t try

Behold Classics Kup… (and PErceptor, Tracks, Jazz, Wreck-gar , Lugnut, Straxus)!

Where the hell are the g2 laser prime pics!

there were some g2 prime pics up but I missed them too. I guess they were scans posted on 4chan or something that the tf sites were promptly taking down when people were posting them. you can always go browsing through 4chan and try to find them :wink:

all the new generations stuff looks superb. still trying to snag a blurr and dirge one of these days. that’s about the only tf related stuff I want right now.

going to redo my game/tf room this weekend with some new shelving. wife wants my old dusty bookcases, so gonna replace those with some new wall shelving that will hopefully make a bit more space. I’ll post some pics when I’m done.

The links seem to have been removed off of 4Chan. Guess I’ll be waiting for a couple months.

CrackaJ, what are you using for shelving and/or display?

I’m trying really hard to avoid buying the new TF stuff mostly because I know once I do, I’ll just have to buy more - and I can’t afford that right now. But dammit, I don’t know how I’m going to say No to Wreck-Gar?

you don’t, you just give in and buy them because they’re awesome.

all the new stuff looks really awesome. wheeljack looks incredible without even any paint apps.

g2 prime re-imagining looks really sharp, diggin the colors they seem to have chosen.

SMB, I agree with Cracka on his statement, you will find the money if you really want to :lol: I had a similar issue with MP Grimlock. Buying him was worth it! Trust me eating out a few less time in the month will help as well.

That G2 Prime is so bought! Not only is this one of my Favorite incarnations of Prime, but this is also the first Prime that I personally bought ($15 @ KB Toys on Clearance).

who smells a fp trailer for G2 prime :3

also optimus I’m just getting some cheap shelving from menards. I already have had a couple of them for years now and they’re as sturdy as ever. I can deck out a whole wall (probably 3-4x storage I have currently with bookcases) for around $30, which is pretty good in my book…considering I’m trying to have my collection take up less space but still allow room for MORE of it…if that makes any sense :slight_smile:

^^ same here! Except for me its Kup & Perceptor.

I’ll be more inclined to buy a trailer for this figure than the other. The trailer for this figure was much more badass. My trailer for Laser Prime is in good shape, however the figure itself is really loose. I have been meaning to replace it.

My guest room/ office is gonna be the place for the collection. I really wanna build my own shelving/ cases. I did so in my garage, but it the crib, they need to be floating. I got a guide on how to do that though

I am SO stoked about Jazz, Tracks, Perceptor, WHEELJACK YES YES YES YES!!! And I never had an interest in Kup before, but that figure just changed my mind! I’m going to pick up Rumble and Frenzy as well. MAN, this line is AWESOME.

Even if we don’t see a Thundercracker, I can’t be mad anymore because we are FINALLY getting WHEELJACK. SOLD. Matter of fact, I’m buying TWO Wheeljacks…I can’t wait to see that new design painted up in the Lancia Stratus colors…I can’t believe I’m letting myself get hyped up again over that toy!

Jazz is still the absolute buy for me.

Any word on a new TF cartoon?

They’re all absolute buys for me.

I’m actually considering buying sealed 2nd’s of every toy in this line cause I really feel like they’re something special.
Just a matter of storage space, I have nowhere to put a collection of sealed toys, lol. I could always just pushpin them onto walls, but I dunno…
