yeah i want to buy them, but Empire has always had them for $75, so this 5 pack would be better value for money.Quote:

TDD; griffin is right. They're made by Takara, but otherwise no relation.

Could someone tell me who's white gun this is?
thankyou
I've watched ROTF 3 times but the image of Jolt's bot mode is still very blurry in my head because he didn't stay on screen for long. Haven't been able to find any image of his CGI model or concept art on the net. Is his Deluxe toy's bot mode fairly screen accurate?
Hey roller why not try www.transformerland.com or http://www.cobraislandtoys.com/ that should help you ID that weapon.
My question..one for the G1 fanatics -
I'm having trouble transforming trypticon into base mode. In particular step 3 (I can't get the "rampway" out) and step 5 (the "base" can't be pulled up). Any ideas?
Also, with the G1 Constructicon chrome drill bits / missiles, when the chrome is worn off - are the parts black or yellow underneath?
Thanks Canohhh :)Quote:

my g1 green and the g1.5 yellows accessories are all black in places were the chrome is worn
Care to elaborate with pics what you mean? Ive transformed trippy and giga only a couple of times without an instruction so I can't tell what exactly your having trouble with? the tail end with the double guns are the only ones that are really what I find very tight to pull out. other than that he's pretty much split and press the tab on his hip to spread the legs and 180º the head viola base mode.Quote:

Step 5 of base mode however says I have to pull up that base thing out of his chest (so it becomes a raised platform) to attach the large purple cannon. I can't get this piece out. As with all my new g1's though, i never try to force transformations out to avoid breaking anything. Do I just need to muscle it out as well?
Here's the scan - step 5 on the far left.

Anyone know a good (prefferably AUS) site to order musiclabel soundwave from?
Don't they still sell him at some import shops in Sydney? Come to a Sydney meet some time - we can show you where.
hmmm the only import store i can think of is galaxy world above the markets. I thiink i saw soundwave there once.
Yeah, I think that's the one. They had MP Grimlocks there too last time we were there.
whens the SMASH thing?
gnerrrrrrrrrrrr
how does one get his hands on those comics that apparently happed after beast machines? ( i think they were called unniverse or something like that

According to other sources, this is a scan of Springer from a Japanese art book. I know it's at least a couple of years old, but don't have an exact publication date. Anyone happen to know which book (or have a higher-quality scan of the relevant page)?
yes a little elbow grease is needed on that one, CAREFUL elbow grease :D:p. It just pulls up, there is no switch or tab that you have to press for it.Quote:

Is the Headmaster series focused primarily on the Headmaster transformers? I bought the Madman Japanese series boxset expecting to see all the transformers but instead each episode seems focused on Headmaster transformers with the rare appearance of some of the oldies. Is this the same thing with all the other Japanese series?
Yes and it's the same for the all the Japanese series, but "Headmasters" still actually features old characters (Rodimus, Galvatron, Wheelie, Daniel etc) in major roles. The later series (Masterforce, Victory) don't show any of the characters from the G1 cartoon (except very rare cameos) and generally exclude anything not part of that year's toyline.
Its rather disappointing. I hope one day (I know wishful thinking!) someone will step up and start a new transformer series based on the G1 characters in the American series.Quote:

How big is Human Alliance figures? are they like as big as Alternators?
They are roughly the same size as the alternators/binaltech in both modes. Proly smaller by just a few millimeters. I've seen some video comparisons of him with Mirage/Skids/Sunstreaker. But that's only for HA BB though. HA Sideswipe seems to be a little bit shorter in bot mode than HA BB from the last youtube video I've seen.Quote:

Every episode he's in seems to portray him as this robot that whilst having great respect for his enemies, appears to be so ruthless and easy to switch alliances that I can't make sense that he could change in just one episode?
Because he was stuck there... with nothing else to do but sit around and get to know Daniel. Given the circumstances, with Sixshot's guard down, I can see why they formed a bond.
I recall a Lil Formers comic strip that showed collector stereotypes. Anyone got it handy?
I think he climbed through a plothole.Quote:

I dunno, it still seemed unlikely. The guys a professional killer, I doubt he has any room to be sympathetic towards a human. I'd imagine he'd have to be detached from his own feelings to do what he does.Quote:

In the context of his role as a Destron, unlikely Daniel would be spared. As a private "citizen" twiddling his thumbs... Daniel provides his only entertainment.
Read his Spotlight comic. It shows him as the detached killing machine but also how he can 'care' in his own way for creatures smaller than him.Quote:
