Actually stumbled across Classics Jetfire & Grimlock at the local toy store :shock:
5 minutes later they furfilled their destiny and joined my TF collection

AHQ wanted $26+ for shipping ALONE. FUUUUUG that. I’ll just want until after the movie.

Picked up Alt Skids and Grimlock today. Not bad, but I’m thinking of repainting them into Ironhide and Barricade.

This will give you an idea of what an Alt Skid would look like as Ironhide:

Fucking tell it like it is! I haven’t seen a single Alternator in stores since Christmas. I’m pissed as hell now that I know that Hot Rodimus isn’t getting a US release. Those fuckers repainted the shit out of Hound twice and Smokescreen like three or four times, and the other only repaint I planned on buying was Rodimus and he’s not getting a US release. I don’t have $60 to pay for a fucking Binaltech

HASBRO, YOU FUCKING LOUSY ASSHOLES HEAR ME??!??! RELEASE ALTERNATOR RODIMUS!!!

FighterX · March 12, 2007, 2:25am

Well, I actually did see Cyb. Soundwave a few times before I left last year, but I didn’t get it because I was still Alt/Binaltech only. Now I’m on a “Soundwave” kick. I’ll get the TiTa version if I can find him.

Classics broke me. Yes they did. I’d never been inclined to actually purchase a Hot Rod figure before, but the Classics mold broke me. Originally, I got Classics Bumblebee to go with my Alts (since he is almost in scale with the cartoon), but it rolled downhill from there.

In more interesting news, I actually saw Optimus Prime in Wal-Mart the other day. That was a shock.

I know this is not a GI Joe thread but damn these are must haves

That’s about how I imagined he’d look as well, still surprising that Hasbro never made it.

And those new Joe’s are must-haves.

Khaotika · March 13, 2007, 5:53pm

They still might… HA HA HA HA HA gasp HA HA HA HA HA HA

…I don’t even believe myself saying it.

Anyway, what I’m planning on doing is getting BT Broadblast and calling him Ironhide; it’s just as good in my eyes…

I wanna get ahold of one of those White Hound KOs and repaint it as Ratchet or something.

new Star Wars TF

Those things are hideous.

P.Gorath · March 15, 2007, 1:55am

I saw another TF: Armada dvd box set was out…are these worth picking up or are they worse than beast machines?

Warpticon · March 15, 2007, 5:47am

The second half of Armada is really pretty freaking good. The first half is…slow, but you kinda have to get through it to get to part 2.

SMB · March 15, 2007, 5:49am

Atrocious is my word for them. At least they’re not shoes.

System_1 · March 15, 2007, 8:38am

Target has “sleep/lounge pants” for 15 buckers.

ia mild “no homo” for this pic…

PsychoSquall · March 15, 2007, 1:47pm

I finally got 2 Decepticon pins from Hot Topic, thanks to this thread. I plan on painting one of them to a purple chrome color.

FighterX · March 15, 2007, 3:47pm

Hahaha, I was going to use that word, but I think I’ve been using it way too much as of late when describing those abortions.
