    Customs stolen....

    Can you ask their parents if they know anything about it, or if they've "seen" anything? Would they help you if they knew their kids did it? I mean, you can't go making wild accusations, but I've never seen a half-decent parent who would condone their kids stealing from the neighbors.

    Takara Transformers

    I have the movie, and my kids have both seen it several times... but I'd be interested in seeing it in theaters again again. The blu-ray version got a really great restoration that would look stellar on the big screen.

    Rumors of a new tank and small pillbox sets. They're really going full tilt back to the WWII stuff. (I think the tank on the right is just someone's guess as to what's behind the blurry, not official in any way.)

    Takara Transformers

    As much as MP-10 got repaints, knock-ups, downsized, etc... I assume this one will get even more KO treatment. Still not sure I'm interested, but if they're cheap, I might just get them for my OP shelf, not my MP collection.

    Takara Transformers

    Wow, that is terrible. I hadn't seen that shot before. I'm more likely to get both of the upcoming 3P G1 primes than I am this. It's just underwhelming at every turn, and I know they'll want a kidney and my first-born for it too. There was a time that conventional wisdom said that 3P stuff...

    Agreed. I love my dark green Toy-Gundog. I'll admit this TT version is less derpy than the FT hound, but I can't see myself feeling compelled to downgrade from MT.

    Like a functional bluetooth speaker. No, I wouldn't try to put cassette motor plus analog audio circuitry in this thing. I'd destroy him trying to hollow him out to create that much room.

    Takara Transformers

    I could totally make him functional... but he probably doesn't have enough empty space to put in speakers that sound like anything you'd want to listen to. Plus, he doesn't transform, so you wouldn't get the full boombox experience! But it would be cool to put the bluetooth smarts in the chest...

    That's cool. I wonder if the MMC Remix cassettes fit as well... considering they're supposedly 1:1 also.

    Anybody still collecting SW on here?

    Wow, that's high! I bought the bar sections for my kids a few years ago, and I don't think I paid more than $10-15 each set. It is amazing how prices skyrocket the minute something gets scarce though. You buy some things thinking they will be reasonably rare, and then they re-release them to...

    Need some help

    That's the first I've heard of them. Be sure to let us know how it goes!

    Both of the 3P truck-modes make the official look like a shitty jenga puzzle.

    Takara Transformers

    So, in addition to TTv3 and Magic Square, there is yet another anime G1 Prime in the works, from Transform Element... which rumor has is not a new company but just another "brand" out of a 3P company we already know. No idea which one though. I like this better than v3, but not sure if I like...

    Takara Transformers

    I'm sure if this site had younger participants we'd find some people adamant that BW is awesome... but I think it's objectively terrible from the aesthetics, all the way down to the initial premise of the series. It borders on blasphemous, and I'd be willing to bet the entire endeavor started...

    Takara Transformers

    At least G1 dinobots (as stupid as they were) had the decency to have a full humanoid robot in the dino shell, and the dino parts are hidden as much as possible or hang off the back. This thing looks like the designers just ran out of time and said, "F#$% it, the robot will just have the same...

    I wouldn't give you 300 cents. I don't care what anyone says, that is f%$#ing awful. It's as stupid as Rock Lords were to Gobots.

    Mega Bloks Militia

    It looks off because they didn't bother to include a flame effect. One exists and has been released in a few packs before, but it's pretty cheap to leave it out of a set this large.

    Yeah, I saw a thumbnail of that pack earlier today and wondered about that. I'm all for it. I still would rather have some charlie or taliban types as an opposing force, but nazi's are better than "tan vs green".

    The whole concept doesn't work. They aren't in disguise. They're not interesting looking. Ugh.
