zeo-mare Posted March 17, 2005 Posted March 17, 2005 live convoy looks cool in grey i know in the end they are going to make him filled with colors and probably screw it up but that grey primered version looks good so far
VF-19 Posted March 17, 2005 Posted March 17, 2005 To everybody living in the Ottawa Area (Ontario, Canada, DUH! ). If you want an Energon Omega Supreme redeco (aka Omega Sentinel), the Walmart at Place D'Orleans has him for... $20. I kid you not. Picked one up this morning, and I'm very happy with it. Although, he's a tad heavy (expected).
eugimon Posted March 17, 2005 Posted March 17, 2005 live convoy looks cool in grey i know in the end they are going to make him filled with colors and probably screw it up but that grey primered version looks good so far it would be nice if they gave him a nice subdued color scheme.... but the sculpt looks pretty nice. rare to nicely designed helicopters that look good in both modes.

al0324 Posted March 18, 2005 Posted March 18, 2005 i've seen dragstrip, but i can't remember who decepticharge is? i tried a local search, but keep coming up with stuff about the toys and not the g1 character or the cartoon char?
trueblueeyes Posted March 18, 2005 Posted March 18, 2005 i've seen dragstrip, but i can't remember who decepticharge is? i tried a local search, but keep coming up with stuff about the toys and not the g1 character or the cartoon char? That is because there never was a G1 character called Decepticharge. It is a brand new name. Most people thought it was just a Hasbro placeholder for another name, and sort of a play on words (Decepticon Windcharger). But, the name appeared on the final packaged product so it looks like Alternators gets another first...the first one in the line without a name tied in any way to G1. Meister doesn't count as that was always Jazz's Japanese name.
Doctor Paragon Posted March 18, 2005 Posted March 18, 2005 "On Cybertron" style Bumblebee: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...me=STRK:MEBI:IT Pretty sweet lookin except for the "Gohan ate the fruit" smile.

1 VF-1 2NV Posted March 19, 2005 Posted March 19, 2005 Picked up Shockblast at my local TRU here in Henderson. He was buried under a couple of ravages, silverstreak, and sideswipe.

GobotFool Posted March 20, 2005 Posted March 20, 2005 how does the gun fit in car mode? as a snap-on muffler like this: I meant his arm blaster, but that pic gives me a good look at that too ^^
connor99 Posted March 20, 2005 Posted March 20, 2005 I was over at FRANK & SONS Collectible show this afternoon to pick up a 3" OTC Stormtrooper. The vendor that I got this from had a S**T load of the Alternator SHOCKBLAST. So, for all of you So.Cal. folks who aren't lucky enough to find one at yer local Target or Wal-Mart, please check there. The booth is located on the front left-hand side of the building, right next to the japanese vendor named HAJI (who also happens to sell Takara Binaltechs and MACROSS stuff) .
NSJ23 Posted March 20, 2005 Posted March 20, 2005 how much was he selling shockblast for? I would like to know the same. I don't want to drive all the way down there for without knowing that.
BoBe-Patt Posted March 20, 2005 Posted March 20, 2005 how much was he selling shockblast for? I would like to know the same. I don't want to drive all the way down there for without knowing that. bah, I'm pretty sure it wasn't 20 bucks like retail. I'm guessing it was the guy that's in the black cage next to the mcdonald's booth. If it was him, then for sure the price of the shockblast would probably be 35+
Metal_Massacre_79 Posted March 21, 2005 Posted March 21, 2005 (edited) Shockwave was sitting on a shelf at Wally World, and despite all of my wife's bitching, she actually picked it up and said "is this one that you're missing?" Needless to say, it was instantly in our cart and is now a part of my collection. I think the only ones I have missing are Swindle and Ravage, unless there are more than 12 Alts that are out now. This may have been mentioned before in the old thread, but the box reads SHOCKBLAST and the license plate reads SHKWAV. Also, the instructions show Jazz rather than Shockwave. I thought it was kinda cool that they made his head to where the light from the room makes it look like his eye lights up. Neat trick if you ask me. Edited March 21, 2005 by Metal_Massacre_79
LORD KUNGFU Posted March 21, 2005 Posted March 21, 2005 yeah, they have been doing that light trick on the transformers since the 80s. Your just now noticed ?
Metal_Massacre_79 Posted March 21, 2005 Posted March 21, 2005 None of the ones I had as a kid did that. How many did they do that to?
GobotFool Posted March 21, 2005 Posted March 21, 2005 None of the ones I had as a kid did that. How many did they do that to? they started to do it with the generation 2 original molds.
Metal_Massacre_79 Posted March 21, 2005 Posted March 21, 2005 I had mostly G1 stuff, so that explains why I didn't see it on my toys. I would still have my G1 Optimus if my cousin hadn't of cracked it in half. I'm still a little pissed at him for doing that...
LORD KUNGFU Posted March 21, 2005 Posted March 21, 2005 I think that some beast wars do the light trick too.
Solscud007 Posted March 21, 2005 Posted March 21, 2005 Tiniest Optimus Prime. Only 7 Dollars.!!!!! haha
promethuem5 Posted March 21, 2005 Posted March 21, 2005 Is that a bootleg? The red looks really bad.... but i like the chrome... neato.
Matt Random Posted March 21, 2005 Posted March 21, 2005 1/72 scale Alternator Jets...maybe ! If this is true, and I want it to be, I wonder why these weren't shown at Toy Fair. The post you linked was from August last year but there was no blue Windcharger repaint or red pickup. As a side not, I noticed is that the article mention the "Primes" in Cybertron, but it seems that the "Convoys" won't be Primes in Cybertron.
