After close examination of the RID Soundwave toy, I noticed that he still does not have a face. So I guess he is still the same character. I just hope he doesn’t start talking. Also, in looking into it, apparently there’s going to be something called “Combiner Force” coming up in the toy line. I wonder what that’s gonna be like.

from what i seen from Transformers fan channels, the toys combiner gimick is based on the Transformers energon combiner gimick, you know, one bot becomes the torso while the other becomes the legs.

Can’t wait to see how that turns out.

That sounds somewhat interesting, I am just worried they will mess it up…

As someone who missed the entirety of the Unicron Trilogy, barring a bit of Armada and Cybertron, I hope I can get a second chance at that kind of gimmick.

So just Energon then?

Barely any Armada or Cybertron, especially Cybertron. I’ve seen maybe the first half of Armada and nothing else of the UT.

Toy wise, I own a crap ton of Minicons and a few Armada Deluxes (or Supercons, if you want to go with the terms Armada used) and some Scouts from Cybertron. Little else.

In that case, you need to watch Cybertron. By far, the best UT show, and one of my favorite Transformers shows of all time. Not to mention the toy line was amazing.

I don’t really need to have another thing to buy a ton of :stuck_out_tongue:

Right now, I’m focusing on getting some Titans Return stuff, and maybe snatch a few CW releases I wanted. If I got any older TF toys, it’d either be the God Ginrai reissue or some Beast Wars stuff.

I got these dudes on the way.

Well ya got MP Primal and MP Cheetor when that come out. That’s stuff you should try and get. Also, I might be getting Transmetal Wapinator for my birth day.

At least get Cybertron Optimus Prime then.

The Fox Kids version is the only one I own, but it’s a really fun figure.

Alright, so I was on the TFWiki, just browsing, like I do, and then I found this. Now I’m not a huge comic book reader, but this may be one of the best Transformers comics ever… of all time. Just read some of the quotes and you’ll know what I mean.

That triggers my memories of immovable legs.

Ok, I have a question for you guys. Why in vehicle mode does AoE deluxe Crosshairs have the black design on one side of his vehicle and not the other, when in the movie he had it on both sides?

paint budget probably. I heard all the windows(AKA the hood and doors) and light bits are trans plastic, so they had to coat it in paint, but I guess they couldn’t get enough to make it equal… I guess? So it’s all painted but they could only do one side due to paint reasons

Ok, yeah. That makes a lot of sense.

Also, I can confirm for you that the windows and the light bars are three big pieces of transparent plastic covered with paint.

Been reading up on IDW lately.

Never been much of a comic book guy, but I just can’t get enough of this. It’s a lot better than I had expected.

I read Death of Optimus Prime, and am currently on Last Stand of the Wreckers. I will then go to More Than Meets the Eye.
