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

[newavengers12]

I dont like it.... Im more of an old school fan!

And Payload joins my ranks. Thanks for the Khols tip. They had 2 Recon Barricades, 1 Dropkick, 1 Dreadwing, and 1 Payload. Lucky I found him too. He was hidden. Now Only three deluxes allude my grasp. 08 BB, Arcee, and Long Arm.

 

[FEAR THE BAT]

Syn, I actually have an 08 BB that I may let go. Have anything of interest??

 

[Saved]

Thanks for the offer, but half the fun of this is finding the guys. I just overreact and flip out when I can't find them. But now that I know these guys are up here in the stores now, I will be less inclined to rage. I have fair chance now.

So thanks for the offer, but for now I am sticking to the hunt.

 

[FEAR THE BAT]

OK, thats cool. Just wanted to throw it out there.

 

[Browncoat]

Got my G2 Eagle Eye today. As I said a couple weeks ago, this was the 2nd Transformer I ever owned that I have now replaced.

Vehicle Mode

Robot Mode

 

[FEAR THE BAT]

Nice.

I got my MP Prime yesterday. Its the first Hasbro release, the one without the base with voices. He's f***in' awesome.

I also have pics of my movie Voyager Thundercracker I got the day before yesterday and pics of the Excellion and RID Prime I got earlier this week.

 

[Browncoat]

I wish I had gotten the MP Prime. The base doesn't do much for me.

Are your weapons black?

 

[FEAR THE BAT]

The big ass cannon he has is black with a few touches of silver and blue to highlight some of the tech parts on it. He has this Energon axe thats translucent orange and he has Megatron pistol. Basically Megs in gun mode in a size he can hold in his hand. And he has the Matrix in his chest, its removeable.

 

[Browncoat]

Yeah, it's basically the same as mine, only my weapons are blue. Is there light piping in the eyes as well?

 

[FEAR THE BAT]

No, its vaccumized (sp?) metallic blue.

 

[Saint553]

So I've seen a HUUUUUGE influx of TF figures everywhere. And the only ones that i haven't seen are the bumblebees. I already have one, so I dont' care, but I just can't believe that with the huge restocks that I still just haven't seen one. I kinda just like to see the HTF figures in the store, whether or not I have intention on getting them. Makes me feel coooool.

I would get that payload armored car TF if it wasn't for the drone head...damnit!

 

[FEAR THE BAT]

Thats why I'll be swapping on a new head to either him or Swindle. That way one keeps that head and one has a regular head with an actual "face".

 

[Saint553]

So how's RID prime, FTB?

 

[FEAR THE BAT]

He's pretty kickass. But I dunno if he'll stay a "Prime". I'm thinking that once I do the repaint I wanna do he needs to be someone else. I'll have a Leader movie Prime, I have MP Prime now and I have a Classics Voyager Prime coming from Ncrawler. So I'm thinking of making him a big badass Autobot but not a "Prime". I'm gonna sort through some G1 names and see if anything jumps out at me, and then thats who he'll probably be. He'll still be predominately red like the firetruck he is though. Its mainly the robot mode that needs some repainting to "enhance" the robotics of him. Plus, not sure if he's supposed to be like this but most of the white parts are slightly yellowed. Its really nothing, but it looks that way if you really look at it. And I'm not a fan of the white parts to begin with.

Pics will be up in about 5 minutes. I just loaded them to the comp, just gotta do some sizing down of the pics.

 

[Saint553]

Just give him the japanese name for that particular prime, Fire Convoy.

I do have a little surprise for you though.

 

[FEAR THE BAT]

Nah. I want something cooler. Maybe Fire Jizmaster.

Here's my MP Prime:

 

[Browncoat]

Yup. Cooler than mine.

 

[Saint553]

Yea, I don't have the ax. Damnit! That's what I get for getting it used.

 

[FEAR THE BAT]

Mine's used. Well, displayed only I should say. He was just cool enough to keep the box and all for me to have. More pics of the others in a sec, thats all I got to take of the Prime since time was short.

 

[FEAR THE BAT]

Here's a shot of RID Prime and Cybertron Excellion in vehicle mode:

 

[FEAR THE BAT]

Here's Excellion in Bot mode with RID Prime still as the Fire Truck and my movie Jazz:

 

[lars573]

The big ass cannon he has is black with a few touches of silver and blue to highlight some of the tech parts on it. He has this Energon axe thats translucent orange and he has Megatron pistol. Basically Megs in gun mode in a size he can hold in his hand. And he has the Matrix in his chest, its removeable.

Plus the Matrix lights up. There is a button on his left shoulder that lights a white LED underneath the Matrix, when in his chest. Be warned it's hella bright. I blinded myself, my sister, and brother when I showed him to them. He also has communicators in both forearms. I think different versions have different characters on the screen. I have the one with the base. It has Grimlock on one arm and Megatron on the other. Also there is a button on the back of his head that when you press it his face plate moves like he's talking.

 

[FEAR THE BAT]

Yeah, I took him out and "tested him". The batteries were dead so I haven't had a chance to see it light up, gotta get some new ones. I like the moveable mouthpiece, it's really cool. On his communicators he has Bumblebee and Starscream. Its an awesome figure, I can't believe what I was missing.

 

[lars573]

You tried to transform him yet? That's a pain the first few times.

I put down a pre-order for one of the second run MP-05 Megatrons. Won't be coming till December. I'm gonna have mad negative cash flow that month. Encore Ratchet and Ironhide plus MP Megatron.

The TF fanboy's lement:
May the gods have mercy on my wallet, for Hasbro will not.
