Only one so far... Leaderprime.

But I think the Human Alliance sets and voyager megatron look nice.

Oh, and i'm looking for a good size trailer for leader prime hehe.

Other TWO leaders? May I be so bold as to correct you (and get you more excited in the process) and inform you it is THREE more - so far. There's one more other than Megs, Prime and Jetfire. :)

Oh and who else was tempted to get Megs and Prime after hearing the new sounds they make? They actually talk this time! The only leaders I bought from the '07 movie were DD Brawl and NW Prime.. Brawl got repainted to G2 megs colours and NW Prime..well..I was that disgusted by him and that stupid sound he made, got chucked. I just wasn't keen on Prime the first time round. He just really didn't sit right with me. That sound he made really was filth.

I hope no one is crying now.. lol there are quite a lot of Prime fans here. My apologies if you have ran off for the kleenex :(

Cheerio

Any reason for Leader Prime? I know he and Megs are on sale at 20% off, but I am almost positive they will be around for a long time to come (if the last lot of movie figures was anything to go by).. and moreso this time due to the current economic drama. So I'll wait til the AU dollar matches US dollar again and pick up a bundle of leaders for less than the price of one, here in Aus. ;)

I also wanted to point out how much I love TF collectors who only have a few toys. I remember when I started collecting in 2007 and just had a few. Those few I adored. I went nuts last year and bought sooo many toys. I temporarily lost my lust for toys and forgot why I was buying them. Can you believe it? I realised that for me, less is more. Spending an hour that evening with a new toy I have bought, (when I have only bought one or two at a time..not 15..like some people lol) gives me a chance to bond with my new addition and keeps things fresh. I have so many toys unopened in their boxes for display purposes. It's just not the same.

My message is - DONT LOSE THE LUST AND JOY OF YOUR TOYS. Just treasure each toy and give it the 'play time' it deserves.:)

All scouts. The deluxes sans the constructicons. Im getting the combiner Devastator. Will get the Gravity bots, when their prices go down. For now I can't justify paying $25 for it....:mad: sure it autonatically transform but it's basically a paperweight so nah. not yet.

1st June 2009, 12:38 PM
I have Rampage, Breakaway, Knock Out and Springer.
Will definitely be getting the rest of the voyager/deluxe Constructicons, most of the scouts, Sideswipe, Dead End, Both versions of the twins and leader Prime and Jetfire.
The rest I’m unsure of until I see them in person.

1st June 2009, 12:58 PM
Just wanna get at least one toy of each TF appearing in the movie and any other toy that might happen to appeal to me. Nothing outside of the 'mainstream' Legends/Scout/Deluxe/Voyager/Leader line interests me so far.

What I have thus far:

Scouts
Dead End
Rollbar

Deluxes
Bumblebee
Rampage
Sideswipe
Sideways
Soundwave

Voyager
Demolishor

Leaders
Megatron
Optimus Prime

Lord_Zed
1st June 2009, 01:21 PM
I only wanted to test the waters, but the target sale forced my hand.

Sideways
Sideswipe
Starscream
Optimus Prime

I will probably pick up some of the other Deluxes and the Scouts in time, so far I've only had time to open and inspect Sideways and Starscream, I will probably keep aquiring slowly till I hit a dud.

1st June 2009, 02:57 PM
Haven't got any so far, but a lot of the Scouts look tempting, the ice-cream twins are must-haves, if the combined Arcee bike form is good then I'll nab them, tank Bludgeon is a must-have and Ironhide looks pretty sweet too (though a red version would be ideal).

Legends Bumblebee

I will get:
Leader Megatron
Legends Constructicons

Human Alliance line

I'm trying simultaneously to reduce my negative impact on the environment and also eradicate my own personal zombie-like, materialistic consumerism so I've only picked up the two better looking scouts, being Dead End and Knock Out.

I may cave and get the entire movie cast...

...but I'm trying not to.

Zahhak
1st June 2009, 05:12 PM
so far I've got:

Soundwave
Sideways
Sideswipe

and what I intend to add to my collection will be

Jetfire(Leader)
Megatron(Voyager)
Ravage
Human Alliance Barricace(I sure hope its not called human alliance though)
Longhaul(Voyager)
Mixmaster(Voyager)
Rampage
Deadend(Sideways remold so that I can make it into a movie kickback)

also there a bunch of toys I want that ive heard (such as the "other bludgon" and lockdown) but I'll wait to see how they look before I make a descion.

1st June 2009, 05:50 PM
I have Leader Prime and Sideswipe, plus a Gravity Bot BB for my son, just to satiate me for a while. I'll probably get at least one figure for each cast member as well, and anything else that's a reviewed or 1st-hand-tested standout.

However, I'm happy to wait for at least sales, if not clearances. Also, I'm trying to do any early purchasing at TRU (price matched of course), because there's no time limit on their return policy for unopened figures I might change my mind about, or find cheaper later.

I havent got around to buying any yet, but I'm going to get the Human Alliance line and some of the Legends. I saw a red Ironhide called Enforcer Ironhide in some Botcon pictures and I will definitely get that. I might also get the Legends Devastator if it is released here.

klystron
1st June 2009, 06:40 PM

Future ones:
RANSACK!
Ravage

I have Dirt Boss.

I want to get Ransack, Depthcharge, Ejector, Sideswipe, Tinystator (i.e. legends Constructicons), Ravage, Stalker Scorponok, and maybe Voyager Prime and Starscream.

The only things about those toys which interest me are the humans - cos I would like to have an official Sam Witwicky figure, as well as other human characters from the movie. But I'm not going to pay $50-odd just for a those. My Mutt Williams will have to do me until Hasbro decide to make proper 10cm action figures of the TF humans (they could even just repaint and repackage their Mutt Williams figure! And a lot of G.I. Joes could be repainted/retooled for Lennox, Epps etc.).

0. Chrome Leader Prime
1. All alliance human packs (2 of each :eek:) priority
2. All robot heroes packs
3. All Legends pack
4. Syndicate for Movie trading cards
5. not sure on core cast characters as yet (Erector , blue Soundwave and combiner devastator)

Firecracker
1st June 2009, 09:28 PM
getting... Erector

Whoa Bread there's children present!:D 'Ejector', but I don't know if thats any more socially correct. :rolleyes:

On topic... I'll probably end up getting everything Rotf related. As long as it transforms its fair game.

Currently I have all of wave 1 bar the deluxes... had the worst luck trying to get them. Hopefully tomorrow the desire will be satisfied. If I'm lucky I'll knab a HA Bumblebee.

NoenGaruth
1st June 2009, 09:54 PM
Currently I have Voyager Starscream and Deluxe Soundwave

I'm considering (depends what I think of them in person):

Voyager Mixmaster
Voyager Long Haul
Voyager Demolisher (assuming there's no standard toy or repaint for Scavenger)
Deluxe Rampage
Deluxe Deadend
Deluxe Ravage
Human Alliance Sideswipe
Leader Starscream
and Maybe the Bike fembots, if the combined mode looks good.

2nd June 2009, 01:09 PM
I can't decide. I don't want to fall into huge amounts of collecting again. I'm going to get a couple of scouts, maybe Sideswipe, Sideways, maybe a constructicon or two. Nothing major.

AllHailBlackout
2nd June 2009, 04:06 PM
ye...well im not too keen on buying a leader starscream...

Does anyone have any pics on Leader Starscream? I bought voyager Starscream the other day and just opened him today. The transformation is completely different to the original movie and just has so much more detail. Definitely worth every cent..this further pushes me to want a bigger version of him that talks!! WOOOOOOO! .. and boy..that colour scheme is lovely stuff.

NoenGaruth
2nd June 2009, 04:13 PM
There's no pics of the leader, they were shown at botcon but no pictures or videos were allowed >_<

I say there'll be some at comic con

What did you think of Starscream when you transformed him? I'm really into this guy.
I'm really pissed that Soundwave was a gumby, weird satellite. He should of been a voyager communications truck or something similar. Its a reallll bummer.

NoenGaruth
2nd June 2009, 04:16 PM
I thought 'now that's more like it' XD

Yeah he definantly is heaps better than the movie 1 mold, now if only they'd make a new Thundercracker on this superior version...

I'm looking forward to the Barricade [anti-] Human Alliance set.

That Mustang variant police car... mmmmmmm.

Spotted a Shelby around my estate today complete with racing stripes... such an ostentatious & vulgar looking car. And yet nice.

would be great if it was in scale with the vehicles/robots of the human alliance set and a human companion can be placed inside the cockpit

Given the reaction to the photos, Leader Starscream is different again to Voyager sized one.

Oh and in case it hasn't filtered through yet, do not buy the current ROTF Ironhide. Wait for the next one coming next year. I believe you'll be happy you did.

I should clarify, it's still the same first movie toy repainted, but the colours in robot mode rock and it comes with a bucketload of weapons for him (or the ROTF scouts) to use, including a new bumperbar that turns into a crossbow.

I'm hoping for a red version but all those extra weapons sound pretty tempting.
Are the main guns the remolded ones or the I-shoot-my-own-tires-in-vehicle-mode versions from the first one?

Hope the movie accuracy improvments seen in Optimus and Starscream are present in him to then.
