Good one eriku!!!

Amen brother.

The only BotCon exclusive that I have a remote interest in, is the as yet unrevealed evil Rodimus/Hot Rod with goatee, that is supposedly a repaint of TF Classics Rodimus.

QFT. Amen.

I thought there was some news about the YF-21, but I'll take the re-post of the pics!!! Good call mate!

Ditto!!

Released this August?? FAWK. This is going to be an expensive summer .....

SWEET!!!!!!

That was my take on the news as well ..... but when Crapnami's involved .... ugh

good one mate! :lol:

Whoa, that is some seriously bad QC .... :o

I agree, the motoslave looks cheap. It needs a better finish. But otherwise I am interested and the price seems right ... can't wait for reviews.

Jazz does appear to be the best of the group, but he doesn't look "evil" - which is the theme for this year. Plus, the Cybertron Crosswise mold was only ok IMHO.

Wow. I hope they decide to go with the Beagle version. Based on past experiences, Crapnami's products are S---.

This is really disappointing news if accurate ....

FYI: Looks like BotCon has released images of the con exclusive Grimlock & Jazz: http://botcon.com/Botcon08/08figures.cfm They, along with Prime & Goldbug look ... meh!! And if you hunt around on TF sites, you can probably find the eBay listing for the BotCon exclusive Voyager class Starscream painted in Jetfire G1 colours. Again, meh. Looks like I won't be missing anything so far .... Still need to see the attendee exclusives though.

Still no restock of Joes in my area .... it's been a few weeks now I think.

Holy S---!! This is awesome, I sooooo want this .... much better than the BotCon version.

Ditto on both comments

I'm still looking for Snow Job, IG Destro, Flash ... what wave were these in again??

Thanks for the feedback GobotFool & promethuem5 - appreciate it. OK, so if I find 'em for a decent price I'm gonna pick 'em up. @Shin - I managed to find a SWTF Darth Vader Death Star NEW MIB on eBay for $19.99 + $8 shipping!!! What a deal!!! It arrived over the weekend, but I haven't had a chance to open it.

Shame to hear that the broken shoulder happened to you as well .... may I ask, did you get a first release or later release version of the VF-0A?? I really want to get this fighter, but hesitate because of all its reported issues.

HA HA HA HA .... good one mate! :lol: :lol:

Does anyone own the TF RID series, "Autobot brother" figures: X-Brawn, Sideburn, & Prowl??? Any thoughts or opinions - if they are worth owning or not?? I've been eyeing these 3 figures for awhile now, and am debating whether to pick 'em up from eBay. Their alt modes look cool, but I'm indifferent about the robot modes since they do have kibble. Some reviews I've read seem to love X-Brawn & Prowl, but apparently Sideburn is a PITA to transform. Thinking of adding them to my collection and want to hear thoughts ... TIA.

Tell me about it. How many years has Crapnami been teasing us with the same BETA prototype ... like 3 years now??? WTF??? :angry:
