All things transformers!!!!

Idk about you guys, but aside from Quakewave, I don't own any other third party TF product.

But this Metro is looking mighty fine IMO, and apparently Maketoys is working on Skorponok and Trypticon!

Color me really impressed! Been waiting for a proper representation of Metro and Trypticon for far TOO long!

I want to like this version and for the most part it ticks all the right boxes but something about it is holding me off loving it. I think it doesn't convey the feeling that he's a walking city.
 
Grimlock reissue = With Fans Toys confirming they're making a new mold and the possibility of Giga Power also making their own version who cares?

No Hasbro Bayformers 4 toys in Europe = Great! Can all copies of the movie and related promotional material be banned from the continent too?

MakeToys Metroplex = Looks way better than that scrawny POS Hasbro released and is somewhat tempting but it's not going to be a priority as I'll have several raccoon based collectibles to pay for in the coming months.
 
While I agree the FT Grimlock will be awesome, it definitely won't be sold for 60 bucks. I say if you can find one, get it!

Buying just because it's cheaper than Fans Toys makes no sense unless it actually looks nice, which it doesn't.

The color grey that's been used makes the MP08 mold look like a 3rd rate knockoff.

If it even reaches the UK it'll be £60 which at the current exchange rate is the equivalent of just over $100.

I paid £90 shipped for my original release MP08 when it was first released which at the time was the most expensive Transformer I'd ever bought.

If I didn't own it I'd either get one of the Takara reissues, the original Hasbro release or most likely wait for Fans Toys.
 
$60 is a really good deal for an MP Grimlock IMO, and the mold looks great even if the plastic doesn't IMO. I won't get one as I don't need another one, but it's not bad for folks who don't already have him. I'm really not motivated to get any 3rd party stuff at this point, so I doubt I would move on a Grimmy there even if it was more in scale.

Aaand now I remember why I stopped posting in this thread. :lol
 
Aww... I like Corsair's posts! I agree with most of what he says, except his anti-Bumblebee stance! ;)

We all love Brendan he's awesome :1-1:

He's just passionate about TF's & who can blame him, sometimes his Anti Hasbro just runs away with him but it's not meant in any offence & Bumblebee does wind most of us...let's be honest ;)

Just look past it & you'll find he's easily one of the nicest guys on here.
