My guess would be that most kids may have limited interest as the character wasn't in the movie (and at a Voyager price point it would be harder for kids to convince their parents to buy it) and I suppose a lot of collectors would have already imported one (either a Hasbro or Takara version; especially considering that the Aussie Dollar was still going pretty well when this toy came out overseas).Quote:

I only really wanted Incinerator, but I got Ironhide too because I would not have another opportunity to get voyagers this cheap for years. Also, while the Revenge of the Fallen toy has more movie-accurate colours, I prefer the cannon placement of the original to the RotF remold.
Incinerator has displaced Wreckage as my favourite movie toy. Ironhide is pretty cool, but his transformation is complex to the point of extreme difficulty.
This sounded so cool, until I realised that the only two Movie Voyagers I was actually interested in, I already had.
Incinerator has a nice altmode, but his robot mode has too much kibble for me. I wonder how hard it would have been to put two hinges in each copter blade so that it could double-fold back along his forearm, leaving the tip sticking out from his wrist to form a claw-finger? Or even just slide the rotor hubs around to the back of his forearms and swing a normal fist out?
And how about a hinge in the tail to allow it to fold up along his back?
OK, it would probably kill the radar-dish-rotor-spinning play action, unless the 'basher was REALLY good. Wouldn't worry me too much, though.
Hmm, the rest of the robot's pretty snazzy, though. I like the split-cockpit vest arrangement, the proportions are good, and he doesn't appear to be lacking for articulation.
If only my kitbashing skills were better. :/ I'd need some scrap plastic, paint, some thin metal joint pins, and either a super-thin cutting disk, a super-thin saw blade, or a hair-thin hot wire cutter. And probably a padded vice, or something...
Headmaster Highbrow? Action Master Elite Turbo Master?Quote:

As Sky Shadow said, maybe Highbrow? Or, going waaaaaaaaaaay out of left field, Tarantulas, since the head looks quite a bit like Tarantulas' (well, I think it does, anyway).
can anyone keep a lookout and get another Incinerator in Melbourne for me (on behalf of lhec plz) thank you...
I haven't seen Incinerator yet :( In fact at my local Kmart there were staff looking for them and asking me if I was looking for the same thing.
Funny. :pQuote:
