Re: February Hauls

Sweet, Target FINALLY put their Black Friday exclusives on Clearance! That means I was able to pick up Universe Leo Prime for under ten dollars! He's...better than I had heard. Could really use thigh and bicep swivels, but he's otherwise surprisingly poseable, and he's got a transformation that's a...

Re: Human Alliance Barricade

Nice review, Prowl! That was a really good read, I am most entertained. Especially by: You have to halfway-deploy the guns and wrestle with a few other pieces to get Barricade’s rigid grill structure open enough to stick Frenzy in there . Har. Anyhoo, I finally have Sideswipe and Skids to go with Al...

Re: Seaspray!

I'm really not enjoying the latest slew of bio notes. They aren't bio notes at all, they're just a small story blurb. "[x] character is fighting [y] character! (Buy their toys now). It's a waste of space when they could be giving them legit personalities. Cute to cross-reference, not so cute wh...

Re: February Hauls

I got.. Human Alliance Skids and Sideswipe ! Had to import them since they didn't come out here, went in on a bulk deal with some other guys locally. I'd fiddled with a friend's AllianceSwipe before, so I knew what I was getting into - I know some were disappointed by him, but I'm oddly not. Althoug...

Re: Power Core Combiners: Mysterious new line?

Sadly, O6 is probably right. Aside from packaging blurbs, we are unlikely to get any context for the Power Core toys. IDW might include a couple of the characters in the comics. But, even if that happens, odds are the appearances will be little more than cameos along the lines of Dropshot in "...

Re: War For Cybertron toys

Pics are starting to hit. We've got the TFCC magazine cover and then some horribly mistransformed pics of Prime and Megs. Prime looks great, gonna pass on Bumblebee, and I want some decent pics of Megs before I make a decision. Regardless, I'm excited. The only thing I'm not happy about is that I d...

Re: Seaspray!

Looks pretty average, I blame this on the excessive white and gold instead of yellow. He doesn't really..look like Seaspray. The Sea-SP RAY thing is a bit naff too, should've just slapped Seaspray on his arms and run with it. That said, I dig the scuba diver headsculpt, the flip-out flippers, harpoo...

Re: ROTF passed over for best F/X oscar

Avatar deserves to take the win, but I'd call District 9 a close second. Does surprise me that Trek got the third instead of ROTF, since effects is pretty much the only thing ROTF has going for it at all.

Re: Power Core Combiners: Mysterious new line?

I find it odd that you'd say there are no legitimately good combiners, Dom, since I'd say there are quite a few. Of course, they all have their compromises, none are truly perfect. That's the nature of the game, though. JRX, Magnaboss, Tripredacus, and Build King spring to mind, and with some 'fan m...

February Hauls

Oh hey, it's a whole new month, and I have some hauls! Some of which are technically January's, but what care I for outdated haul threads? http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v304/onslaught86/BB%20Images/Picture0004.jpg Black (metal) Spider-Man says "Throw up your goats!" The big haul: A new...
