Ah I see.
They were one of the few G1 big bot rivals that were in scale with each other in both toy and cartoon form
unlike Fort Max and Scorponok in toy form lol
or Omega Supreme and Devastator…
I don’t recognize 90% of those haha Only time I was really into TF was during Beast Wars (or Beasties as it was called here in Canada)
That’s why I’m hype for the Netflix series! Glad I checked this thread.
Also anyone ever play this card game?
You tried to push the other bots off the edge by drawing cards and comparing numbers.
^^ I’m perfectly fine with that! Metroplex and Fortress Maximus were TOO damned big.
Loved those cards didn’t know how to really play the game though lol.
I agree, but Trypticon is a little too small in this case if you are pairing those two together.

Spoiler
Even though there are definite improvements to Ginrai that make him more G1 accurate, i’m still happy with my U.S release TR Powermaster Prime. Plus he has proper feet.
Ginrai’s weird, squared “stump” feet look so odd. I swear, for the longest time, i thought he was just mistransformed in those early promo images.
Fort Max is hitting Ollie’s at 39.99.
RUN BEFORE THE SCALPERS GET THEM ALL
TR Fort Max? An improvement over Metroplex but, the scalpers can have him. Too Ginormous.
Besides i have:

FT-10 Phoenix just joined the party this week. It did not disappoint. [Img]https://imgur.com/sz7U8qi.jpg[\img]

Well, it’s Ultra Magnus vs Sixshot again
When I bought it for 50 I felt I paid too much. It’s an opportunity thing. I’m seeing pics all over the web with people literally taking cases of this figure.

I won’t be buying this, but it is cool. I like how it is scaled with the current MP Line.
However, MPM Optimus Prime is bought.

TR Trypticon review from a Filipino fan…
Notes:
The nose gun is spring loaded, activated by a switch from the back of the head orby placing the headmaster on a platform.

Listing shows MP10B rerelease
Recently on different days, i scored a TR Topspin and TR Kup at my local target finally. Was always planning on paying more to grab them from e-bay at some point but, kept putting it off.
Guess you gotta be patient. They were even 15% off(about $4 less).
Yeah, I just got TR Hotrod and Gnaw (i’m a glutton for punishment LOL).
Surprisingly, I like it. Sure it looks like a toy with the lack of paint, but it’s a more satisfying vehicle mode from the Classics release. I wish the shoulders weren’t as broad so you could see the wing at the rear. Gnaw is serviceable and a decent troopbuilder.
I also grabbed a TR Sky Shadow from Target. It’s cool, but I’m offloading it to wait for Overlord.
Something that shocks me is that there isn’t a TR Star Saber. I know there was the voting thing that took place some months back, but this is just a missed opportunity.
MP-10B Pre-order up.

What wrongs with Gnaw? I haven’t opened him myself but, he looks like a spiffy classics rendition of the character.
Also bought Roadburn recently. Why homage a throttlebot of all characters instead of using the Bumblebee mold for Cliffjumper?
Edit: Naaa screw that. close enough. He is my unofficial, classics “Cliffjumper” as far as i’m concerned.
