Got mine from the auction site, too. Only missing one fist for Snarl. I can't wait for sludge and swoop.

Maybe I'm just a big klutz, but I only transformed all mine once. They're sooooo fragile.

So far, I've got Optimus (haven't got the trailer yet....), Megatron, Sideswipe, Red Alert, Prowl, Bumblebee, Thrust and Soundwave in the WSTs....Megatron is my favourite among these :D

I've been looking to get some more, namely Starscream, Hot Rod and the dinobots, but I've also seen Dirge, Thundercracker and Ramjet, though I'm not sure whether these are knock offs or not :?: There seem to be lots made from clear coloured plastics that are most likely KOs, and even some of the conbiners have been made in WST size too..... I've seen Superion and Devastator on ebay available as a whole set of small size TFs, even smaller than micromaster size. I think they're all KOs, since I haven't seen any official looking pics or boxes :?

EDIT - here's a link to the ones i'm currently finding on ebay;

Are not the G1 style boxes custom made?

As for your questions Sunstorm delita-1 will be able to answer them.

Yes, I'm sure they are. I saw some ebayers selling the custom made boxes for them.... haven't got round to buying them yet. They were very 8)

I think the trust is legit [delita-1 posted some pics that included him]. Not really sure though.

I'm pretty sure they're all legit. I have Thrust, and I'm SURE he is. Not so sure about the clear ones. The dinobots are a bigger scale than the other WST's, and they're made by JustiToys.

yeah, I got Thrust too and he definitely is.... he's in the same box as the other wave 2 ones I got.

It's the clear coloured plastic ones and the Superion/Devavstator I have doubts over...... :?

The Dinobot ones look great, I wasn't aware they were a different manufacturer.

Their is a legit Devastator out there, sort of! They weren't called Devastator in Japan, but they brought it over here and Universe released them as Constructicons/Devastator! Also, those mini Aerielbots used to be Decepticons in Japan, but again they brought them out over here under the Universe name and called them Aerielbots! Hope that helps, :wink: ! There all really 8) nonetheless!

daiclone and macross were before G1 tfs which were recolored to form the transformers. (Diaclone megs for example is all black etc). Bagales is the one to ask about them (he knows the most of anyone here, or so it seems).

I'm tempted to buy this combiner - it's menasor.... but I'm not sure on the item or sellers credentials;

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Transformers-G1-M ... dZViewItem

A better picture of them;
http://www.a2ztoy.com/product_gallery/t ... ehicle.htm

The stickers look quite "squiffy" :? and the price is only £2.99, plus £3.99 postage to UK.... less than £10 for all the combiners for this robot? Sounds way too goo to be true. These must be knock offs, yup?

Plus - one other question about the bot himself. I noticed he's made up of two Autobots and 3 Decepticons... is this normal? I thought combiners were all bots of one faction? :shock:

I've found a WST SunStorm from this seller and have sent him some questions;

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/G1-Smallest-Trans ... dZViewItem

I can't see a set of mini fists in the plastic with this one, which is odd...... plus $35.00 postage for such a small item!?! WTF :?: :shock:

His fists are white. I can see them in there.

I don't know about this particular auction, but when I see a re-issue or something of comparable price going for 1 cent, but shipping is $40, it's like a reserve price or high starting bid, but then the auction site doesn't get the final value percent of that $40. I could be wrong, but if the auction site gets jacked for some cash, I'm not losing any sleep!
