Got Universe Blaster today.
I know he's a repaint of Cybertron Soundwave, but I just like Blaster.
Here's a photo of Blaster with Soundwave for comparison.

Yeah nice score on both of those Kup. I got myself a Getaway this week but aren't posting a pic of him until he's had a nice, long hydrogen peroxide bath.
Anyway some Universe love for me today...

Cool, I am sure he will look good at the end. Mine needed some maintenance too as he was dirty and the paint from his face had flaked off a fair bit and I had to remove it to repaint it. Unfortunately to remove his head you have to pull apart the whole figure..:rolleyes:Quote:

finally got myself ratchet and robot heroes sets :)
Is the Robot Hero called "Hard Shell" - Bombshell renamed ? If so does anyone know why ?Quote:

My best guess as to why is that DC does have a Teen Titans character called Bombshell and thus perhaps Mattel has trademarked the name just in case they want to make a figure. I don't know why Hasbro went for 'Hardshell' rather than 'Decepticon Bombshell'. Maybe as a pun, because 'hard sell' has similar fiscal connotations to 'kickback'. Then again, who knows why Hasbro does anything? :confused:
It's also possible that Hasbro thought that Bombshell was a politically incorrect name because bombs are bad mmmkay? Kind of like how Wheeljack was made evil because Wheeljack is an 'evil' name in Armada or how Slag was renamed Snarl because Hasbro reckons it is rude in England despite nobody complaining about him in the 80s when the character was very prominent there.Quote:

Botcon Vector Sigmas - Cheers Iceburn, and who gave them to me (cant remember who but thank you)
Classics Skywarp and Kiss Cassette - Cheers Skyshadow?
Menasor Chest, Broadside Axe, and Skids gun from the guy on the stage
Skids and TF dinner tray from Jamie
JayJays posters from someone (sorry I cant remember your name)
Living Dead Dolls (for my Fiance) I got from Phantom Zone, as well as some BOOTY SWEAT haha
If it's because Hasbro objects to having the work 'bomb' in the name of a toy meant for children, then may I please direct Hasbro's attention to Article A:Quote:

Hasbro, this is your new toy, the 'Cobra Gunship'. Notice in the background how your toy has just laid waste to the Eiffel Tower, an iconic building that is visited by 18,000 human beings every day? And yes, it's only France, but can you imagine the uproar if - instead of the Eiffel Tower - you had the twin towers of the World Trade Centre being destroyed on the front of your toy box? Also notice that the fine print on the box says, "product shown in fantasy situation". Really, Hasbro? Your "fantasy situation"s don't involve, say... exhibitionistic acts with three sisters at once? And a midget? Your fantasy really involves destroying the Eiffel tower?
Okay Hasbro, in that case, every time you do something as dopey as change a toy's name to Snarl because we might think 'Slag' is a promiscuous woman or remove reference to a 'bomb' from the toy, I'm going to remind you of the time that you killed 1000 living souls on the front of a toy box meant for children. Kthanxbye! :cool:
That would be me ;), your welcome.Quote:

Animated Ultra Magnus
Movie Blackout off Trunks
Armada Sideways off Zed
GF Excillion at the fair
TPB Time Wars and Dinobots at Phantom Zone... Except I forgot the 15% off coupon from the fair:mad:
skyshadow - i support you! hehe
I would say it's a scene from the movie, so as it hasn't been created specifically for the toy, it's justifiable by linking back to the reason the kid is begging the parents for it.... "I want the one that blew up the phallus!!!"Quote:

Got my G1 Ultra magnus today
Overall i'm extremely happy with him. Under $100USD shipped and the toy itself is absolute mint. No paint or chrome wear. stickers are perfect except for 2 lifting and 1 missing.
Box is pretty decent. i was hoping it would be a little better but at the same time the wear add a little character :D
What do you guys think?
