I was told that this lighter color is a rare variation, but I haven't found any information on this color. Anyone know anything about it?

I've also been unable to find much information about this one. I don't even know what series it is. But I think the missiles might go to a different bot, I think this one's are supposed to be gray.

Got this lot last friday.

Animated bulkhead and sentinel prime were 1/2 price in tesco. ROTF soundwave from play.com, Devil may cry {PS2} from a store for a couple of £, the TFA DS game was from the same store, marked down to a tenner.

Psuedo reviews:-

Sentinel Prime:
As much as I want to I cannot find any thing to dislike about him [except maybe his show personality] the toy is good and solid with no loose parts.

Leader bulkhead.
An impulse buy at £20. Don't care much for the saw blade hand and would have preferred a wrecking ball. I may just remove the saw and add a wrecking ball. Otherwise a great fig with a reasonably useless headmaster accessory.

ROTF soundwave:
the alt mode is crap to put it simply. As a satellite former there is little to compare him too though. A robot mode display piece is all he really is. {The third mode is so close to the normal satellite mode that I have already discounted it. (The destructions show two steps from alt mode 1 to alt mode 2)}

Awesome finds everyone! Here's what arrived today for me:
I ran across an auction for these different Dinozone Dinosaur Transformer figures. Had never seen or heard of them. Thought they were pretty cool looking! Not the best quality or articulation, but acceptable.

They display well, what with all the clear plastic and chrome. Alt modes look good, too. It's a shame about all these transforming toys with great molds, but brittle plastic.

cool toys. I think I've got parts to one. Mine has a clear purple body and bright green bones rather than chrome.

Are yours stamped sunrise bandai 1998?

Oh the humanity I can't see any of you garage sale haul pics LD. The links don't even work here at work. I'll have to look when I get home.
@DES We have some of those Bulkheads here at the base. They can't get bought. TF's last about two days here except for the leader class ones. I have no collectors to compete with just little kids who's parents just got paid. We do that too for my daughter(and I) so I can't complain. There is a Bulkhead or two, Ultramagnus or two, Voyager Grimlock, blitzwing, Megatron, and OP all waiting for a home. That may mean they won't put anymore out though.

those dino things look cool, but the mammoths' robot mode trunk placement is.... unfortunate.

LOL, just that 1. Aside from that one I've only ever found 1 or 2 items at a single sale. I just go to a LOT of sales, and I've got a lot of other people who buy them for me when they see them.

Heh LD you've got your very own TF-sourcing organization going on there! :P
Excellent finds, in particular that Quake looks extremely nice! Find him a good home ok?
