I'm probably in for a $300 Greyskull. I'd have preferred something more like $200, but it's a specialty line, not something that's going to be carried much of anywhere. Without old-school TRU, Amazon will likely be the only outlet by default. Maybe the amazon price will be a tad better than...

Yeah, those guys going nuts about the shade of Stunticon bots... peach this, and peach that. I feel like I've taken a wrong turn at crazytown. Is Kup blue or is he green? F#$%, just make one, and I'll know if it's good when I see it.

In general, the broadcast masters just look dirty and faded. The digital is far more vibrant, has phenomenally better contrast, and generally looks more like it was intended. I suppose there could be some nostalgia for the broadcast master "look" since that's more like what we saw on crappy...

Oh certainly. It's what got everyone all lathered up about MOTU MB figures. I think the reaction to this is the sole reason we're getting the MOTU Heroes and upcoming Windraider. And it's why I think we'll eventually see a full castle set. I bought a clear blue Warcarft MB armored tiger when...

Well it never transformed in the show, and since it's a frankenstein, it's hard to imagine it even has an altmode... but who knows. As for what to do with it... that's a larger question that plagues 99% of these purchases. Put it on a shelf and pose it? Make it talk to your other bots in your...

Oh shit! XTB is making an "Autobot Spike"! Really, I never thought I'd live to see such a thing. That wasn't even one of my favorite episodes, but I'm fairly certain I need to own this.

I'm not sure I'd wish that on myself, but yeah, it's definitely an "easy" way to get a clean start.

So very true. I'm far more selective and patient than I was 6-8 years ago. At that time, my attitude was very much, "I must buy this because nothing like it will ever be seen again!" I really never dreamed the 3P market would boom the way it did, or that HasTak would allow the 3P market to...

I'm not saying it wasn't interesting at the time. Obviously, I was on-board... but in hindsight, both of those TFC combiners are tragic by today's standards. I definitely wish I'd skipped both, as well as the FP Menasor which I regret immensely. Together, that's like $1500 I basically pitched...

Agreed. I have the first two zeta aerialbots, and they're solid. Assuming the end gestalt is anything close to as awesome as Constructor, I'll be very happy, especially considering how inexpensive thy are. The TFC bot... it's just pure garbage at this point. I try not to think about what I...

I remember that one. It's awesome, basically the pinnacle of toy stop-motion as far as I know.

Dare! Dare to belieeeeeeeeve... you... can survive. The power is theeeeeeeeere at your commaaaaaaand... TF '86 was GREAT in the theater, just like the first time. No matter how many times I've seen it (20?), it gets me in the feels. Crowd was good. It was funny but quaint to see adults...

Oh, we do family stuff all the time, but it usually just involves dinner out with family and then driving around to all the places that sell toys b/c children. We spend plenty of time together... we just don't go to the movies frequently.

Practically never. The wife will take the kids to the movies 3-4 times over the summer for animated/kid stuff while I'm at work. I think the only time I've been to the theater this year was to take the kids to see Teen Titans Go. The time before that was probably Ep VIII.

Hell yeah, stopped by walgreens for my cheap-ass movie candy. Even the wife and kids are excited... and I'm not sure why. I really just thought they'd be humoring me.

Even FT has a history of doing this with their G1 head for Grinder. I'm stunned that FT hasn't made a G1 Jetfire kit by now. I have no doubt they'd even get some double-dippers who want both versions. I'd be tempted.

Well yeah, that would be beyond sweet. But I think even the 3P companies are scared of the Macross lawyers...

It looks pretty cool. I'm partial to the flat red just because I loved the original toy back in the day, but there's no denying the red chome is sharp.

Expect this western buyer to not pay that much. This western buyer is still happy with his modified Omni. The giant-jawed head, the fake chest, and the YUUUGE backpack... official or KO, it's just not working for me. It's better than the derpy badcube figure, but that's an extremely low bar...

Only three days until TF '86 will make you forget all about bayformers!
