ALL THINGS TRANSFORMERS!!!!

[bcm77]

Some of those constructicons look so good in bot-mode that I would be tempted to pick them up even if they weren't part of Devastator. The newly revealed bots look the best of the bunch IMO.

Had the price and release schedule been such that it would have made it impossible for me to get all 6 I think I would have still gotten a couple of them.

Fortunately things have worked out OK so I'll be able to get the lot!

A bit, yeah. But it wasn't that hard either. He's a good, solid toy, but there always have been a lot of things that just bothered me. Like how hard it is to keep him standing, or how the backpack doesn't lock in and flops to the side. Or how needlessly frustrating his transformation is! And it's not that hard to find a 2nd hand one for a good price anyways, so if I ever miss him on my shelf, I'll just score a new one for 20 bucks.

20 bucks!? where. i need a rotf megatron and prime.. 20 bucks?

 

[Deak Starkiller]

I care. Great work man!

BCM,

Yep, I'm a very happy geek today seeing "Mixmaster". He looks great and the extra touches with the barrel just puts it over the top. All the pics today has been fantastic!

New pics of "Hook" too

Now that is a crane !!! I think that Generations Grapple might feel a bit inadequate in comparison

All the bot modes look fantastic. I think I like Scrapper, Mixmaster and Hook best, but they all look great. I REALLY would love a second set for the individual bots along with Herc. Again this pic is not my work but from TFworld.

For people worried about the off centre head in a couple of pics, I think this pic shows it can be adjusted. It would also be nice if they added a port on his left shoulder to add one of the cab sections to complete the Gen 1 look.

I've not been this excited for a TF since I first saw pics of MP Prime !!

Wow

Bob

Wow this figures run $100 a pop It's gonna be very expensive to get 2 sets? Anyone know what the final height when it's combine together?

VS1976,
Devastator's height is expected to be 12"-14".

Here's the arm next to Henkei Bumblebee,

Crazy that people are contemplating two sets... I mean, not just considering the price of these, but all the other awesome stuff coming out.

My wish list so far:
- TFC's Constructicons (only Exgraver paid for so far) - approx. $500
- iGear's Ironhide $110
- iGear's Ratchet $110
- iGear's Thundercracker $100

Plus the stuff that's still a bit in the air: iGear's Horror Monarch, Bumblebee and Cliffjumper, as well as Soundwave and Blaster (though I forget the company doing those).

Be nice to get the Coneheads too.

Yeah, I couldn't really do it as it'd mean missing out on something else.

So far I've got the following paid for,

TFC Long Haul
TFC Scrapper ( most of the money is on my Paypal account waiting for the pre-order )
FP Insecticons ( got 1 already )
iGear Ironhide, Ratchet , Huffer & Seaspray
X-Transbots Wheelie

When my latest ebay auctions finish and I get paid for them I should be able to get another Conehead....probably Ramjet.

After that I'll still want ( in order of priority )

TFC Hook, Bonecrusher & Mixmaster
iGear Starscream, Skywarp & Thundercracker
iGear Dirge
iGear Impactor
iGear Bumblebee & Cliffjumper
Fan Toys Blaster & Soundwave ( subject to sales they've said Shockwave will follow those )
Mastermind Creations Sixshot
X-Transbots Powerglide
PerfectEffect Reflector
iGear Arcee
iGear Minibots
iGear Sunstorm, Acid Storm & whatever the blue & white one is called

Fortunately I have a couple of non TF collections that can be sacrificed to help raise the cash

 

[DPrime]

iGear Starscream, Skywarp & Thundercracker

Yeah, I haven't quite made up my mind about Starscream and Skywarp yet... I have the Hasbro versions, which are really nice, but the more I look at them now the more bothered I am about the hip kibble...

We'll see. I'll probably end up getting them, too!

I've got some extra stuff I could sell as well, but I'm trying to put most of that on our line of credit...

 

[Ra88]

I'm hoping that iGear will offer the hip kibble mod separately. Should be easy to install. Then the draw for their own Seekers could be different colors and the wrist communicators.

I care. Great work man!

Thanks dude!

20 bucks!? where. i need a rotf megatron and prime.. 20 bucks?

I always see a couple at local conventions. Especially TF1 Optimus. ROTF OP and Megatron not so much, though. Best you can hope for is someone selling it on one of the TF forums, or see it on clearance.

ill keep looking, optimus from te first movie looks terrible, that one should be free hahaha

 

[karamazov80]

Yeah, those damn 3rd party toys ain't cheap. I've been on the fence about getting the coneheads for awhile now. By the time I finally make a decision, they'll probably be sold out

iGear seems to be pretty good at doing second or third runs, so I'm not TOO worried about that happening.

 

[farrrs]

[karamazov80]

Would be a tight fit if it fits at all (that's what she said).

I know of a place that has them for a decent price.

 

[YoNoSe]

Know anyplace that has a SDCC Starscream Skystriker for a decent price?
