Very cool!

I got Generations Warpath from the appropriately named Kapow Toys this morning and he's f'ing awesome, easily one of the top 5 Classics molds so far.

Just made another order with TF Source.

Got that Perfect Effect "Scout" team (the G1 Reflector set), and a bunch of the Justitoys WST Dinobots, Blaster and Shockwave.

Man, these plus the Faith Leader I just got - it took third parties to get me excited about Transformers again! Imagine that!

Though I will have to pick up a reissue Combaticons set now - the Shockwave comes with a hand that can grasp him in gun mode which is designed to be held by Bruticus!

Nice haul DPrime! :chew

Ra88 that Omega Supreme is amazing, great job!

I'm kinda disappointed about that Jetwing Optimus though, and it doesnt really look all that great.

is your CC okay? There's a whole thread with people who ordered from TFSource recently getting their CC info stolen/used...mine included

Thanks!

Unfortunately I'm still in Afghanistan for about a month - I will take some pics when I get back. As far as TFs go, I also have a Walmart MP Starscream (finally), a vintage G1 Thrust, and a few reissues waiting for me at home...

Yikes. Well, I only ordered last night. I will check the balance and maybe give them a call after work about the possibility of this occurring... Thanks for the heads up!

Thanks Balrog!



No Buster paintjob = major disappointment and an even bigger pass.

Damn, I was hoping for this to be ultimate end all movie OP.

It wouldnt take that much to paint if you know the right person.

Wait, didn't that already happen once?

Holy ____, it did! How the hell did this happen again?

 

[bumblebee]

I had to close one of my CC due to the TFsource mess, don't think i'll be ordering from them any time soon

Looks like iGear is doing an original mold,

https://www.igeartoys.com/?page_id=604

As Ironhide is part of their PP line that means it'll be in scale with Faith Leader.....so it and the inevitable Ratchet retool will also fit with the Classics

I hope the design is better than the Universe/Henkei mold although that's not exactly difficult.

Damn, I've got Faith Leader on its way to me, and I almost hope I don't care for it, because I can see this company taking a fair amount of my money. Based on their choices of releases (in scale MP Prime and Megs, the rest of the seekers, Ironhide and Ratchet), IGear is right up my alley. Quality is the only real x-factor at the moment.

 

[Ra88]

Exciting news, but I hope that their Impactor head isn't meant for a remold of this. That would kill interest I have for it, Impactor needs his own body, not one that's the same as Ironhide.

I didn't know you were in the sheet, thank you for your service to this country man. Come home soon brother.

Uh, Ironhide? Yes please. iGear keeps getting better and better everytime. Their Kup head is phenomenal.

Ironhide & Ratchet being great is my main concern but another new mold for Impactor would be better.

Is there another character with an alt mode like Impactor?

 

[Ra88]

I have no idea. None of the modern figures fit, either in designs or colors.

Well, I checked my statement online, and called the company right before heading to work to give them the heads up. Nothing suspicious has happened so far. They made sure to tell me that I wouldn't be liable for any fraud whatsoever, and I'm sure they appreciated the heads up. So far so good.

I don't order TFs all that often but I have ordered from TFsource before, and will likely do so again. Sucks they got hacked - I'll probably use Paypal next time.

lol, I'm in the same boat! I don't know that I'll get the other Seekers, but Ratchet and Ironhide are a must have, if they're going to be G1/MP style. I'd also like to see Prowl... I was SOOO disappointed when Alternators Prowl didn't use the Smokescreen/Silverstreak mold - beginning of the end for me. I ended up getting fed up with Alternators and sold them all off.

Kind of regret doing that. I should have at least kept the ones that looked like their G1 counterparts, but I suppose I can always buy them back off Ebay or on the boards. Still, if iGear ends up giving us actual G1 versions of these I will end up buying at least all the '84 characters...

I don't know if I'd say I'm in the sheet... the nature of my position means I'm relatively safe, but I'm glad to have been a part of all this, especially with recent news...

I'll be home soon though. I can't wait to take pics of the stuff I've had sent home while I've been a way. Literally a year plus of collectible toy purchases!

That's cool DPrime, well still watch your sheet. Who watches a years worth of merchandise for you?

Well, my gf lives with me (we're actually commonlaw) but she took the opportunity to teach in England while I was away. We had a friend who subletted the place. We gave her a great deal on rent so she didn't mind picking up a few packages here and there.

I was just happy to have someone looking after the place while we were gone!

Only 27 days now...

 

[Deak Starkiller]

That's great man! Good luck and I hope these 27 days don't feel like an eternity.

You would think so, but I couldn't stop myself from counting when I hit 65 for some reason. The days have been flying by...
