    Default Transformers Variants Gone Again!

    It appears as though Fred's Complete Transformers Variants and Variations Page has disappeared once again (first time was when it was hosted by geocities).

    Anyone familiar with the site will know how disappointing this is, especially if it doesn't get hosted elsewhere.

    Hopefully this is just a temporary disruption...

    If it is gone for good, I'll see if I can get in contact with him, to host the pages on our server. If I can't reach him, I'll see what I can salvage from the wayback machine website, but it may not have archived any images.
    It's one of those resources the fandom can't afford to lose.

    That's a great idea griffin and I agree, the fandom can't afford to be without that resource.

    If it's permanent, I have the entire 124MB of the site on my hard drive.

    Not sure why this exists, but someone somewhere mirrored the original geocities site in 2009, kinda like the wayback machine I guess.
    I found the Variants site here, but I wonder for how long this copy will exist...

    Is this site giving anyone malicious website warnings?

    I've also located it here: http://sassimaze.hn.vc/futuristgroup/vquanda.html

    Mine doesn't, which is weird because usually it like to block most debatedly questionable sites.
