Interesting, rare and sometimes cheap ebay items.

That... is awesome. I love that style. If I had somewhere to display it I would have had a crack.

The first appearance of Shining Magnus. :p

That page.... that's not in the final book is it (at all I mean not just corrected colours)? From memory, Autobots pull in and kid is excited, then Kup trips Galvatron out the window, then Galvatron's lands and Autobots transform... then Decepticons flee and then happy Autobots...?

It was meant to be the cover, but - possibly because of the colour-swapping - they reused the image from page nine instead. So I'm pretty sure it's been unseen and unused all this time.

Interesting. Doesn't the Wheelie book released with the Car Show Blow Up, also reuse interior art for the cover? I wonder if there's a lost page of Wheelie's out there.

The Wheelie book's art (besides flesh-coloured armour-bikini wearing Arcee of course) is great and is the reason I don't hate the G1-era character as much as everyone else seems to.

Why yes it does. Good point about more possible lost art :)

The Story of Wheelie, the Wild Boy of Quintesson is a MUST READ. Wheelie is BAD ASS and this book should be his origin and the basis for all his incarnations. :cool:

I was thinking of throwing a bid on this little Beast Wars Lot but I was wondering if anyone could help me figure out who the other (non-BW) figures are. I can see Skywarp and Terradive...

I think there is a Machine Wars Soundwave and Sandstorm in there, also an Energon Mirage at the back behind Rhinox, and that Blast-off repaint of the Energon combiner tank (can't remember if it was Universe 2.0 or Movieverse, I think it was different in one region).
One of the bikes is from the Cybertron line, the green one is from ROTF.
That's all I got.

That's a nice lot. I'd buy that, but only a few I want there.
