Awesome, hope you enjoy. My 2 sons and I are still working throught the g1 series. I kind of wish they had the commercials too, that would bring back some memories...

Are you guys talking about the new DVD release of the Gen 1 series? I thought I read somewhere(Toyfare?) that they included toy commercials.

Of course I would buy a DVD with nothing BUT quality copies of the original G1 toy commercials. I mean ALL of them. How fun would that be?

Well, I am talking about the set that I have, I think its season 1-4 and there are no commercials on it. But if it's true, that's good to know that the new release of season one has the commercials.

Back from sunny/rainy Orlando, Disney time for the little one. Three hard, long, and tiring days. Good news is that there is a store on the North side of the city and my wife let me go while she was in the park. I was gone for four hours. That was wonderful considering the blistering heat. Plus she hates going in to those stores and hates waiting for me in the car.
So the small purchase from there was a G2 Brawl for $3. 3 different battle beasts for $4 each, no weapons though. An energon Kickback for $8, only one complete. the selection there was good but the prices were more then I wanted to pay( read: more then my wife wanted me to pay. :wink: ) Pics in edit to follow, soon.

Picked up ROTF Wheelie, Rvage, Skids and Mudflap. Two questions:

1) Why does Mudflap's license plate say "Traxx?"

2) Why are Mudflap and Skids faces so distorted? What cuases them to be distorted in the movie?

Thanks to TT I've now got RiD Landfill and Ruination!

Also Strika! I can't remember if it's the BM or Universe version though...

I'll post pics tomarrow.

Ahh! Ok lol

Forgot the pics unfortuantly...

However I've come to the conclusion that I like Landfills #2 mode the best. i.e. the one that puts Heavyload and Hightower as the legs. He's the most stable in this mode.

Is your M.A.S.K. collection as impressive as your TF collection?


Not that I think that's possible.

I added more to my ROTF collection...

Skids
Wheelie (yes i said Wheelie)
Chromia
Rampage

Skids = AWESOME!! I really like that guy.
His transformation is fairly easy and he's good at posing plus his face makes me laugh every time i see it.

Wheelie = WTF!! His transformation is cool. I had a bit of a struggle at first, but I think I got it figured out. Rather tall in bot mode.

Chromia = Really nice in bike mode. That's all I got to say about her.

Rampage = Tractor mode is sweet, I wish his shovel moved in that mode.
I also wish there was a way to combine this version into Devastator.
His bot mode is rather bizzarre, his elbows don't move and he don't have feet.

I never was a big fan of Abominus. I liked Hun-Gurr and Sinnertwin though. I think they were the only ones I had as a kid...

Trust me when I say I am working on that :wink: {And I'll post how to do so everyone can see and attempt it themselves. }

(should have FAB long haul today as well as a special surpirse. So a viable devastator combiner may be on the cards. {I have demolisher and ramapge ready to give it a whirl. Mixmaster is on pre order, I hope they make deluxe/voyager figs of the other two/three constructicons} A brief report on the viability and pic will hopefully get provided if the items arrive. :wink: )

Seconded. Due to Hun-grrr's legs, he is the most poseable G1 combiner.
Far over the Misty Mountains cold, To dungeons deep and caverns old. The pines were roaring on the height, The winds were moaning in the night, The fire was red, it flaming spread, The trees like torches blazed with light.
