I would love to mate. It's just that it'd have to be all indoors. No backyard on the first floor.:(

- RC Bumblebee (all from Tandy, got some for Iceburn too but that's all that was left. Doubt I would've got them if they were more than $10)
- Junker Crumplezone. My aunty picked it up for me and since ti's free, I cant complain. That said, it's surprising how cool the toy is despite missing those two launchers. Very impressed it can be missing so much yet be so decent a figure still. Cybertron was good.

On an offnote, I also opened Dark Crumplezone and was surprised to find how cool the remould was. There are significant differences in the alt mode that are quite cool. If Hasbro made this effort with TFM figures, I'd be far more impressed

Ahhh STL, nice acquisitions esp. the grimlock bust. And I've gotta say I like Crumplezone in both modes too. He and Ransack never fail to amuse me with their sillyness. :D

What does RC mean? And how do you play them?

RC is short for remote-controlled. You play with them via the remote, I'm guessing ;)

Can't exactly shoot.. but yeah you POINT at them and control via a button or a wheel, I supposed (I don't actually have them, but want it too)

I should also correct myself that RC actually stands for "Radio-Controlled" rather than remote, eventhough it's like a remote... the correct terminalogy is radio because it uses radio frequency as opposed to remote using infra-red (most times)

I have got my December and January acquitions from Japan/Hong Kong all mixed up... (and not all are TF related... :p )
