I picked up PRID voyager Ultra Magnus and I think he's pretty cool I just wish he would have came with 2 of his missiles for his shoulders to make him more G1 looking but I also found for the first time PRID Vehicon. :D

TFC Toys F-15 Eagle (G1 Air Raid) arrived today. This is TFC Toys second combiner project (Hercules was the first) named Uranus of all things. Eagle (like Phantom) both look great so far in all 3 modes. I can't wait to get SR-71 Blackbird (Silverbolt) next. It should be out sometime 1st quarter this year.

Not yet. TFC hasn't had any issues that I'm aware of, concerning QC, with these figures though.

I haven't been buying many Transformers lately, but I couldn't pass on Beast Hunters Wheeljack. :)

I recently purchased a third party transformer Knight Morpher Cyclops (Shockwave). It is pretty cool! However it has several very fragile parts, especially the very fragile made tabs that attach sections. Still I am pleased to have it in my collection. I am now eyeballing a KM Screecher Starscream third party figure and TAKARA TOMY Transformers Ape BAPE Limited Edition G1 Optimus Prime Green Camo Neo. However....I refuse to buy from oversea sellers in Hong Kong...been burned! Paid but never received it! Wish some US seller would post one for sale. I have every G1 Optimus Prime figure except for this one.

Nice to see you around, Sentinel. :)
Wow, I'd never heard of the Optimus Ape BAPE before! It's kind of weird, but pretty cool. :)
Sorry to hear you got burned when trying to purchase one. Sellers like that ruin it for everyone. I hope you find one soon enough though. Good luck!

Are those Kreon blocks compatible with Lego?

Wow, nice purchases, Skywarp!

@ Sideways - I think he's worth getting, but on the other hand I'm a Wheeljack fan.
As you can see, this version of Wheeljack has a lot of spikes and other details, as well as molded in swirls in some of his parts. Some might like that, others may not.
To me he feels a bit sturdier than some of the latest Tf's we've gotten... the plastic feels less flimsy and he's actually got several paint details (!)
I liked the first TF: Prime Wheeljack, and I like this one too. If you liked the previous figure, (unless all the new details and/or launcher bother you), I think you might like this one as well.

@Sentinel Prime: Nice addition. That Knight Morpher Cyclops is a pretty cool figure, too! Was just out of my budget though, unfortunately.
@Minerva: Nice find on that Beast Hunters Wheeljack! Haven't seen any from that line in my area as of yet.
@Skywarp: Really nice haul! Wow!

I'll hopefully have some FansProject Stunticons to show in this thread sometime soon. Will update when I do! 8)
