  1. Well there is Cybertron Thundercracker, later repainted to be Divebomb for the movie line with Su-37 colors. Had to get him and Dreadwing just on the principle of having transformable Russian fighters.
  2. Well, Rei or Makoto, I guess I'm just a sucker for long haired brunettes There's a lot of potential for exclusives with this line...
  3. Segata Sanshiro is the manliest man of all gaming. I miss the days when SEGA made hardware. (hugs Dreamcast)
  4. Forza's a fun game, but I would really like to see Polyphony Digital's take on a '97 911 GT1 or 962. I'm still trying to get enough cred to buyone in Forza
  5. Good to hear, but will there be Porsches this time, or more RUFs?
  6. Nice! I forgot about him completely, and I do like his makeover in Prime.
  7. Good to see Ming Na Wen is back, and still looking pretty good-I'll be watching!
  8. I'm so glad Orgun didn't turn out to be vaporware. I was beginning to think it wouldn't get past being a prototype, and it looks pretty good to boot!
  9. There's no contest between UT and MM's Predaking offerings. The beefy legs make him look more monstrous, and will be great contrast when displayed with Giant, Bruticus, and even Uranos. I liking the big feet too; it'll just add more stability for the added bulk of the arms.
  10. I'm not sure what to make of this: Toyworld IDW Prime. I can't help feeling that this will be upstaged by Has/Tak's own offering of an IDW inspired Prime. I just have this hunch that the Legends version that's hitting stores soon is just a precursor for a much larger versionvthat may be released for the big 30th anniversary. Meh, it's probably just wishful thinking.
  11. I'm guessing this was their way of kicking off the 30th anniversary of TFs. With such a huge toy, I would've thought they'd give it ankle rockers-boo!
  12. After some fiddling around, it's clear Springer is definitely the better of the two toys. Bot mode looks fantastic and with waist articulation, it makes for some dynamic looking poses. With less kibble and empty spaces, Springer's alt modes are less contrived than poor Blitzwing's. It's so good, it just might replace Warbot Defender's spot on the shelf. Locking tabs are solid, weapon integration is neatly done, it's about time Has/Tak did justice to a triple changer. It's a shame about Blitzwing, I had high hopes for him, but in the end, he's just a mess.
  13. Right out of the box, Blitzwing is a bust. It's a fiddly mess whose tabs just won't stay in place. I'll see if those mods do the trick, but I shouldn't have to. I'm hoping Springer will bring some redemption out of this wave.
  14. I never did find FoC Grimlock around here, but I totally scored and snagged Springer and Blitwing at Target today! It was a bit of a surprise as I didn't think they would show this early.
  15. Chogokin Shin Getter 1! It's so bought.
  16. I seem to be singing this version now instead of the original:
  17. I just finished Bioshock Infinite, and I definitely had a blast. I'm usually indifferent to FPS games, but when it's wrapped with a compelling story like the one in BI, my inerest is piqued. I almost crapped my pants when I . I'm not entirely sure on one thing though: I didn't get a few voxaphones so I may have missed some story elements.
  18. Hopefully it's still in the works. It was shown two years ago as a prototype, but nothing solid yet. Their Gurren Lagann was shown at the same time, and THAT one was released, so who knows.
  19. Relatively new to the toy scene, Sentinel has been working to put mecha in toy form from various series from Detonator Orgun to Gurren Lagann in their RIOBOT line. I could've sworn we had a thread for them, but I couldn't find it. In any case, their latest release is the one I've been looking forward to the most, and it looks glorious: the fighting Blodia from Capcom's Powered Gear and Cyberbots games. I love the old mechs of gaming yore, and this one looks to earn a place on my shelf.
  20. A Firebee? The target drone? My first thought would be using the skeleton from a Prime Soundwave, maybe even Prime Starscream as they both have really slim alt modes.
  21. There's still hope: Shenmue 3! Please Mr Suzuki, no more sailor hunting.
  22. My god, it's full of stars. Man, look at those Low Viz valks-thanks for the throwback, Kevin!
