Hey KalelPrime! Happy Birthday! I have a question. I trying to buy Transformers G1 toys for Christmas but I do not have much money in my Paypal account. What are your recommendations for which G1 toys I should get.
I limit myself to transformers so I really want this one. It looks like it could be a soul of chogokin or something. Not that I need to reference something like that. Its just nice to have a transformer with Japanese style again.
happy birthday, Dave. and Junkheap has been made to be the main guy who fixed Ultra Magnus in the movie and is studying with Ratchet to be a medic. i'd say he's worth it :)
I will say its nice to see that Black Shadow after so many years got another toy even if it is just a redeco of Thunderwing, the toy sadly though does suffer a great deal from what Generations Thunderwing delt with in that the robot mode is still revealing at the bottom of the alt mode and sadly doesn't hide that well enough. Hopefully somewhere down the line Blue Bacchus might get the generations treatment.
Japanese Transformer names (aside from Longrack) are hardly ever used in the U.S. because a lot of them (at least the Beast Wars Neo names) sound a little silly (Stampy, Break, Bump...really?!).
And yes, Generations is bloody hard to find at UK retail...because they stopped releasing them here after the second wave!!! After WFC Megatron and Darkmount, no more!
Nice review David. To be honest, I can't make up my mind about this guy or not. I haven't got completely over the disappointment that was the Generations Thunderwing figure. I dare say if I can't find anything worth buying in future I will probably pick it up just to bump up up my collection.
the only two things I cant stand about this guy are the shoulders and feet
