TM2 Dinobot Posted January 8, 2012 Share Posted January 8, 2012 Actually, I could care less about Transformers, I was really thinking about the GI Joe Resolute 7 packs Ross had. You can all keep your Transformer things. I never saw the Resolute sets, only the Cobra Island sets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karamazov80 Posted January 8, 2012 Share Posted January 8, 2012 (edited) How much were they, TM2? I still believe I am just a collector of containers. I also believe this makes me a very poor, stupid person. Poor? Yes. Stupid? Intelligence doesn't usually come into play when we're discussing mental disorders such as this, IMO.

groundhog7s Posted January 8, 2012 Share Posted January 8, 2012 True. How about 'pathetic' then? Or just 'lucky', since my wife has no idea what my collection is worth (or costs)? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karamazov80 Posted January 8, 2012 Share Posted January 8, 2012 (edited) Yeah, that works. The value of my collection helps me to justify keeping it. And I'm getting better and better at selling old stuff off to fund new things. Edited January 8, 2012 by karamazov80 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TM2 Dinobot Posted January 8, 2012 Share Posted January 8, 2012 How much were they, TM2? $16 I think. Long gone now. I managed to save the spikey balls, but was able to find a way to miss the BAT's spare chest piece and throw it out. Yay me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TENIME_art Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 (edited) Trailbreaker got a legends scale classics figure. If that counts for you, that's great. Me? I want something I can display with the other deluxes. (though the legends scale still had more articulation than G1 Trailbreaker by a wide margin) I was just trying to be funny. Legends Class absolutely is not good enough for me. I hate that size. Until Hasbro gives us a better one, though, I'm using TFTM Voyager Ironhide with Alternator Rollbar's head: Works for me. I could not care less about Transformers. Fixed. If you "could care less," that means you do care. (Fixed my "Fixed." ) Edited January 10, 2012 by TENIME_art Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karamazov80 Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 Shouldn't it be "could not care less," then? Though I'll give GH the benefit of the doubt. He probably meant that he cares a little, but could care even less if pushed. I dig that custom Trailbreaker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TENIME_art Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 D'oh! That's my fault. I was so concerned with correcting it, that I put it in the wrong place. I meant to put it after "could" not "care." And thanks. Though, now I display him with the car hood horizontal instead of at those angles. And, under the Photoshopping, the visor is painted red.

Mirymate Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 Niiiiice Trailbreaker. Sam, I am long since over Alternators. It started out cool, but degenerated into a frustrationfest. The local stores quit carrying them well before the line ended. Never saw the last run of repaints, let alone Rumble or Ravage v2. And the initial eBay prices for the later releases were high enough that I just gave up on them. Alternators were among the first things I packed away when I reorganised what I display. Someday, I will try and hunt down the remaining ones I missed. But that is waaaaay down my toy buying priority list. On the happy side, scored Black Shadow and Junkyard today. (okay, so Hasbro decided to call them Sky Shadow and Junkheap) So coupled with the Windcharger I found over Christmas, my Classics collection is as complete as it can be, sans Grapple and Lugnut that I never did find. The shame of it is that the Rumble/Frenzy mold was never given an American release, and that the WC repaint Wipeout will never be seen here officially either.

minivenom Posted January 11, 2012 Share Posted January 11, 2012 I got the MP 01 "Last Shot" mold and I must admit I've had much more fun with the Japanese speaking base than any 38 year old should. The ungodly scream sound effect is currently my voice greeting on my cell phone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TM2 Dinobot Posted January 11, 2012 Share Posted January 11, 2012 LOL! I've never actually heard that thing in Japanese. That must be funny. Miry, may I suggest Tomahawk as Blue Bachus? Paint his head blue and he's pretty good. I don't have him, but some people over at The AssLpark and TFW use him. He looks nice. Now I've got this crazy Energon mace and no idea who to give it to...

karamazov80 Posted January 11, 2012 Share Posted January 11, 2012 Well, I got over to Ross tonight, and the only TFs they had were Wreck-Gar and Perceptor. The only Joes they had were some crappy movie troops. Ugh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

karamazov80 Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 I don't know who those guys are, but I dig that last pic. They look like some 3rd stringer Transformers you might have seen hanging around in the later part of the G1 series. Well, not so much that guy on the left, but. . .

TM2 Dinobot Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 Those are the Airilbots from Energon, and the RotF repaint. I do see what you're saying with the blocky G1 feel though. kinda cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gambitron Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 (edited) Because I love Soundwave I ordered this Sonicron from BBTS and got it in the mail yesterday. Although it is a really cool alternate version of Soundwave it is a pain to stand up (the leg joints are super loose) and the snap feature to hold it together as a recorder SUCKS and doesn't work well at all. Oh well he still looks awesome with all my other Soundwaves. Edited February 2, 2012 by gambitron Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

karamazov80 Posted February 4, 2012 Share Posted February 4, 2012 I dig him. I think the plastic quality is sub-MP Starscream, but not by much. He obviously looks great. I like the new mods removing the "hip kibble" a lot. Fingers are a bit loose. No major complaints, though it was a bit odd he didn't come with any instructions. I'm glad to be able to round out the OG Seeker crew. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
