YOU SUCK!! lol
you so didn't protest that much! You kinda were hesitant at first, that and the fact after having zero TF toys before my visit you now have 3 LOL!

I also love the fact the only person who never ended up with a TF toy when I was there was the actual kid, the adults all got TF toys!! WOOHOO!!

btw how is Prime and Smokescreen?

LOL, shuddup. Okay, okay, I'm aware of the ridiculousness of the situation. But she's so darn cute, I can't help it. I think if I had had the original Energon Arcee, I'm positive I'd have HATED movie Arcee. But as you mentioned, she is in fact my first Transformer. So ... that counts for the abundance of love. And she's SO SMALL! My only problem at the minute is that I can't get her little energon chip-thing on her chest to come off.

Prime and Smokescreen are doing quite well, Rodimus. But Ravage (yeah, Mark, Ravage!) is about to attack them any minute now...

Jose may know this one, but I saw these 2 things on evil-bay and I thought of the international repaints he had mentioned. Are they real? The repaints Jose mentioned??

Red BB (not UK or US repaint)

I just did some looking at Botcon toy galleries. I have a message for them.

LAY OF THE REPAINTS ALREADY!

Here i thought with all the move merch, they'd give the molds a rest. Apparently not. They're slapping us with a Target exclusive repaint of half of the basic figures from armada and cybertron. And at $8 a pop for those, it's going to get pricey for us completists!

SOME of the repaints I approve of, like the G1 colored Jazz.

WHY GOD, WWWHHHHYYYYYYYYYYY?????

:cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry:



Why the hell can't they just keep that mold and make it into a Classics line Arcee instead, if the Titanium line wasn't selling? Good gracious, the profanity that's coming out of my mouth right now...

I was crying when i saw some sort of German tank with a realistic MG42 Mounted on top...

Maybe Titanium would have sold if they put it in stores. It was kind of hard to buy stuff i didn't see.

I planned on buying the Titanium Ultra Magnus 6"
But never seen it anywhere.
It would have been nice to see a more to scale UM than the giant G1

The Titaniums would also have sold better if they werent designed to have popped apart at each joint during a very gentle handed transform.

Lol. I'm not even complaining about that, though it is true. I do suppose though that you have to have some extra give in a five pound metal arm attached by a plastic shoulder. But i hold that american distribution thoroughly sucks.

I am just glad the classics Voyager Megatron is going to be a hand gun (though still green and purple).

If you have not seen him, he is on Amazon.
