I'd suggest going for the three Encore sets. Great way to catch up on the most familiar G1 tapes and less risk of the all too common KO versions being sold as legit on eBay.
I completely agree with Paul. It was happy days when Ratbat was reissued - with gold weapons :D
I came so close on several occasions to buying him off Ebay and he's not cheap at all thanks to his popularity in the Marvel comics. Ahh, Car Wash Of Doom... great memories :rolleyes:
Does anybody here have them all in their collection with pictures to see them all?
Here you go,

I dont have Howlback and Garboil, Flipsides or any of the Shattered glass ones though, sorry. Erm also ,my ravages/glit are facing front so they may not look much but rectangles with guns on the side hehehe
I do agree with what Paulbot said on getting the encore 3 sets as its the safest way to be sure your getting non KO tapes plus its cheaper ( especially ratbat), and complete.
Actually, you do have the only available Shattered Glass cassette toy, Liege - it's just a repurposed Glit. :) Here are a few of mine that weren't in your picture:Quote:

(For Darth Conlan: that's Universe Ravage, Garboil and Flipsides gathered around Twincast.)
Twincast looks like a repaint Blaster. Is he a Decpticon though?
Pictures all look great. I need to find some now. Thanks guys.
Twincast is a slight retool of Blaster (he can fit two cassettes in his chest instead of one). In the Headmasters cartoon, Blaster fought Soundwave to the death (of both of them), and he was brought back in blue (still as a good guy) as Twincast, while Soundwave was reborn as the confusingly-named Soundblaster.Quote:

Who comes with Twincast?
Steeljaw came with the 1987 release, Flip Sides comes with the 2006 reissue. Both cassettes have special stickers that - when put in Twincast or Soundblaster - 'reveal' the weak points of Scorponok (kind of like the way the Tech Specs were read with a decoder). Flip Sides also has a sticker for Fortress Maximus (she's a sleeper agent Decepticon who thinks she's an Autobot.)Quote:

Garboil and Howlback (blue Ravage and Laserbeak) were in a pack called 'Cobolt Sentry'.
I'm guessing they are worth a bit?
If you're patient and watch eBay for a while, you should be able to get the two-pack for about $100 shipped.Quote:

His name starts with an S?
Anybody have pictures of these two guys Rosanna and Enemy?
Rosanna can be seen here
Cheers. Now to find her is the challenge!
Sundor is who I was talking about before. How did he come out?
Sundor was released with Rosanna through E-hobby.
There's a white Ravage that comes with Rosanna and Sundor (Glit/Shattered Glass Ravage) but there's not a gold one.Quote:

Enemy was never released as a toy. The closest is the MC-01 Micross (Red) toy described in the Wiki article, which was a Microchange (Pre-Transformers) toy. Odds are you're not going to get an Enemy toy that easily, and if you do you need to break it off the radio.
Fair enough. I may give him a miss. They others all look gettable which is nice. Just have to save up some cash. Any new ones rumored at all?
