The Products' OFFICIAL Transformers Thread for us to ramble on and on about TFs

[Saint553]

Eh, I like that Soundwave idea. And how they didn't make Megatron into a gun in the movie. How useful is a tape deck and a pistol that can't move on it's own in a battle?

 

[Green Scar]

Well...i didn't hate Megatron's form. But with Soundwave...he needs to transform into something so you can have Ravage and Laserbeak.

 

[lars573]

Which his Cybertron incarnation does. He come with a mini-con side kick. Laserbeak.

 

[FEAR THE BAT]

That Soundwave isn't bad.

 

[FEAR THE BAT]

OK, u guys can tell I got busy so I'm barely getting a chance to post the pics of the Arcee I got. Anyway, this first pic shows her in verhicle mode (she's obviously a motorcycle) next to movie Jazz:

 

[FEAR THE BAT]

This is here next to movie Jazz in both their robot modes:

 

[FEAR THE BAT]

Here's 2 shots of her, just one came out with alotta flash:

 

[SsM]

are the robot replicas worth getting? wm has a bunch of all of them and they dont look that bad..

 

[FEAR THE BAT]

Here she is with her weapon, which is some crossbow kinda thing that actually launches the grey missle. Anyway, the weapon is translucent (like all energon weapons) which makes it really cool and it also splits in two and the halves attach on the lower part of each side and kinda give her a mega exhaust pipe system:

Only use I'd have for them is for parts/fodder. The Barricade has a better head and some cool weapon/s to add onto the Deluxe Barricade. The Megatron and Optimus are way too small though.

I've never been much a fan of that Soundwave.

Hey FTB...from wich series is this Arcee??? Energon?

 

[lars573]

Yep the pink/white rice rocket Arcee is from Energon. But the Target exclusive scout line has the mold too, Arcee in blue. The deco is supposed to be the motorcycle that Captain Lennox rode to do his run at Blackout.

There is also a sea foam green and white Elita-1 version coming too. Quite a few of the Target Scouts are based on vehicles you see in the movie. Like Hardtop deco is based on the Sector 7 buggies.

 

[newavengers12]

when is this coming???

is it me or that Arcee looks better than the purple movie one?

 

[lars573]

They already came. They're Target exclusives. Which means if Target doesn't operate where you live your SOL. I got in on a group buy that a Canadian TF fan site does for stuff like this. I'm gonna get Hardtop, Clocker, Strongarm, and Armorhide.

 

[newavengers12]

and that site....got many of them??? Like to share 4 with others(me)...

 

[lars573]

You'd be better off asking FTB to look at Targets for you.

 

[newavengers12]

FTB....... Can you look up for those at Target....for me?

LOL!!!

 

[newavengers12]

actually I'm expecting the arrival this week of Hardtop and Signalflare....I got the from ebay last week.

 

[lars573]

Now you can all seeth with jealousy at my reissue Soundwave. t:

In box. With an assit from Menasor to keep the flap open.

Soundwave plus the 5 cassettes I have transformed.

Slugfest and Ravage are in his tape deck. While Rumble, Buzzsaw, and Laserbeak are to his right.

Here you can see the double tape deck.

Here they all are in robot form.

The red guy is in fact Rumble. The cartoon flipped Rumble/Frenzy's colours.

 

[newavengers12]

Man looks nice! I got that fig but with the two tapes it comes with!

 

[newavengers12]

I want a repaint Jazz...... damn... I will have to take a flight and buy that Tformer!

 

[lars573]

Well I bought a knock-off Rumble/Buzzsaw set on ebay. Which is something the Chinese KO masters made up. Buzzsaw was only sold with Soundwave back in the day, and Rumble only came in a two pack with Ravage. The dino casette Slugfest is vintage G1, and was given word to me by my sisters fiance. A trade of sorts, I gave him some Star Wars figs (EP.4 Luke and Obi-Wan from the mid 90's POTF range) I didn't want. This leaves me half of Soundwaves total casettes. I plan on getting a KO Frenzy/Ratbat set later on, then tracking down a vintage Overkill (the other dino casette).

 

[newavengers12]

That sounds nice lars...I hope you get the other you need!

But those you got looks nice together!

 

[lars573]

No what's really nice is my recent ebay winnings. Reissue Prowl and Smokescreen for $44.50. A steal considering Prowl alone can go for almost $40 by himself. That I am extremely pleased about. t:
