Damn!! I like that a lot! But I also couldn't stop thinking that it looks like a chicken in mid-transformation... Besides that it's a really cool design... So no one has a clue where it came from? ~Tico

LOL LOL I feel like an idiot. I still remember the next day I opened my prime (more than a year ago now) I spent all afternoon looking for the "ear piece". Scanned my dorm room's floor while on my knees. Sigh... I was looking for something that never existed. What a waste of time!!! ~Tico

you could be right... though, if by chance anyone is going to recast the other side... um please let us know. I don't get it. So Takara and Hasbro both have the primes with only ONE of his ear uncovered?? ~Tico

I'm pretty sure that all the Hasbro/Takara Optimus Primes are like that, i.e., missing an "ear-plug." Really???? That's weird! And no one has mentioned this before? I hate the way optimus look, in my case, from his right side... I don't like seeing his inner ear... I was thinking about "acquiring" an extra earplug somehow.. any ideas? Besides buying another MP-01 that is... ~Tico

(my MP-01 ) (perfect ear) (missing earplug ) So has anyone found this problem? Now that I think about it, I don't even know if both came when I took it out of the box... ~Tico

mmm... did the "ear-plug" fall or it doesn't come with one? My MP-01 left earplug fell and got lost after 2 days Did that happen to anyone? ~Tico

No way!!! I remember those things!! You tuck their head and limbs in this sack-like thing on the back and they turn into a ball!! Right? Anyway, which TF is that?? I want it! Tico

WTF!!! From ADV Site at Checkout. "Unless specifically noted, products (and the accompanying packing) may be previously owned, used, demos or cutouts.

That if the item doesn't say BRAND NEW it might be an used item?? Also at some point it was showing me all Saint seiya dvds for sale... but now only box 1 and 5... what happened? ~Tico

Hey Hurin, i agree 99% with you. But i'm not aware of the cameo of alien's from other movies... what are you refering to? Just out of curiosity. ~Tico

you guys are probably talking about the Toyota ECHO perhaps?? It looks pretty deformed !!! ~Tico

Hi Zeo-Mare, What are the gundams with capes called? I haven't seen them around. Thanks, ~Tico

12 MONKEYS !!!!! My fav movie ever! ~Tico

Daaamn... you guys are a bunch of snobs!!! ~Tico

Eclipse, Scion tC, Accord Coupe, Hyundai Tiburon... they all look the same now ~Tico

Interesting!!! I'm really looking forward to see this complete. I noticed that OP has his arms tucked in like in cab mode?? ~Tico yeah originma ultra magnus transformed liek that Pardon my ignorance... but what is originma ultra magnus? ~Tico

Interesting!!! I'm really looking forward to see this complete. I noticed that OP has his arms tucked in like in cab mode?? ~Tico

I just started playing this game and it looks pretty cool. But my problem is that I'm hating the jungle so far... I hate the invisible walls that I've found . Is the jungle just the first level?? or is the game all jungle?? Thanks, Tico

DAMN! I wish i had known this before paying $50 for this guy. I would have gone for the ALT version for the first time... I still prefer the BTs because IMO they look better in car mode, they look like die cast models. I can definetely see the "metal look" on some of the BTs compared to the ALTs... specially smokey and meister ( i've seen their ALT versions in person). I don't see how the transformation would make TAKARA not use diecast... The roof and legs don't seem to rub against anything! It seems like it could be due to budget.... I really hope TAKARA doesn't repeat this "die-cast fiasco" (for me, at least) in the future... I don't like paying 50 bucks for 3 pieces of metal and japanese instructions ~Tico PS> Holy $h!t this thing is so difficult to transform back to car!!!

I just got my BT grimlock and I must say that even though is the coolest looking on robot mode, it was the hardest to transform!!! Can someone tell me which parts are supposed to be diecast??? Because everything looks very plasticky... in the previous BTs you can certainly feel the weight and see the metal. How is this compared to the ALT version? Sorry if this has been discussed before. Thanks, Tico EDIT> oh yeah... what's up with the springs in the legs? do they do anything?

Sorry if this has been asked before but just like someone i shall not name, i'm also too lazy to look through 8 pages of stuff. Will the DS be able to act as a PDA or Pocket PC or whatever they call these things now? ~Tico

I am a huge fan of rpgs (from PC though) and the X MEN. I thought the idea of Legends was very neat... sadly i got bored of it after 2 days... The action is very repetitive and the only thing that made me keep on going forward was to see the different characters and powers... but all characters handle pretty much the same... I wouldn't really call this game an rpg as it's more like those old TMNT and BattleToads games. As for the cell shading I thougth it was pretty badly done It looks very pixelated to me I wish i could try the multiplayer options... but i have no one to play it with ~Tico

In case ppl haven't seen this... Remy has new pics of Alternator Grimlock!! He looks really good! Alternator Grimlock @ TFkenkon ~Tico

Oh... i thought that this topic was really about NFS2... not underground. NFS series used to be my favorite games EVER... Sadly, IMO the last good NFS was Porsche unleashed... after that it all went downhill when they turned the game in just another arcade racing game... so sad. I'm still hoping that they'll release something like in the old days. That said... underground 2 looks very interesting. ~Tico

Speaking of continuity... how does Robotech II fit in? I watched all the robotech series but never layed my eyes on RT II... when does it take place?? I thought it was supposed to be after new generation. Thanks, Tico

Thanks so much for the link Battlepod, somehow i missed that topic on that forum!! Great looking toy, have fun with yours!! ~Tico
