    My first acquisition for the new year also (technically I ordered them last year) -

    MOSC G1 Scrapper and AFA case!

    These were supposed to be a b'day present but the rule in my house is to buy your own gifts to avoid disappointment. These are presents I won't be returning

    New Acquisitions:
    TR Astrotrain, Skullsmasher, & Hardhead

    There's also an alternate robot mode transformation for Punch's legs that's reflected on his box art and the front of those instructions you have there. It helps explain why there's aspects of the toy can that he doesn't otherwise use (it's in the red box below):
    Ah thanks for that i was trying to part his legs but couldn't for some reason, but have done it now and he is his more stable and looks better
    Thanks

    LOL... It's all good. It's actually the 1989 Chinese Hasbro reissue so it's legit (note the sticker on the top right and assortment code on the bottom right). For some reason the pic of the fake has been removed. I linked it to TFW so they must have deleted / moved it.

    Thanks for the concern though

    About a year ago (or more) I told Dirge and Gok about the Punch transformation and they didn't believe me!

    Wow I always transformed him the same way ramp did. I don't think the boxart alternative looks all that great. Looks stumpy How do the instructions suggest you fold out the legs?

    [edit] nvm, misread sky shadows leg fold out post hehe

    Encore #19 - Frenzy, Rumble, Lazerbeak and Overkill thanks to Fungal Infection

    That now completes the G1 cartoon cassettes for me, am not after the combiners or Japanese ones so I'm happy.

    I want Raindance and Grand Slam just because they did make a canonical appearance in G1 (comics; Underbase Saga)... a pretty stupid appearance too, they were just treated as data storage devices rather than sentient Autobots (they were referred to as Autobots but never portrayed as sentient beings... bah)... anyway, they're a low priority, but they are on my "want" list.
