And picked up my iGear Kup heads from the post office this afternoon.

A very sweet haul indeed Nyerk , just be wary though mate of that bloody TM Megatron's arms; the hinge they're on suffers violently from the Brown/Gold plastic they're constructed with.
Takara Rampage looks rather interesting with the Silver paint apps but how awesome and beautiful is TM2 Megatron? - Chrome Red Dragon FTW!

Holy crap man!

Congratulations on that mad haul dude , the stuff from Valkyrie looks to be utterly immaculate (Seems that's a trend of his ) but I had no idea how completely mint all the Merch was, the eBay photos really didn't do them justice at all huh?

You'll have to make some scans of the Autopuzzle and Deceptiquiz book and upload them too dude, I'm really curious as to what's in that gem.

ill work on that man, just gotta get off my butt and go buy a scanner...

The Deceptiquiz book is the only one out of all of them that has some writing inside, its pencil though so i could prob remove it without too much hassle. Some of it is really hard haha, like some poorly drawn heads and you have to identify them, some are obviously easy but the kid has written Thundercracker for one of them, no way i could tell

what an awesome collection of classic gear. I love the superion Vinyl.

Thanks man, but i just dont get why Superion is on it? he wasnt even in the movie.

Buying stuff like this isnt anywhere near as exciting as buying mint figures, so ill probably be focusing on figures for a while now. Although if something cool was to come up...

Thanks, yeah I've heard some real horror stories about TM Megs before.. But this one is unharmed so far, I was really careful transforming him though!

Rampage is actually terrifying, the Takara version is mostly made of translucent red plastic that makes him look like he's been drinking blood. And yes, having just transformed TM2 Megatron, I can safely say that having a metallic, asymetrical dragon on my shelf is one of the best things ever.

TM Megatron, Takara Rampage and TM2 Megatron.

Beautiful. Just Beautiful. How good would a Masterpiece Rampage be?! Not that he isn't a Masterpiece already!

I can see what you mean about the translucent parts on Rampage. It looks wonderful!

Id prefer a Masterpiece Dragon Megatron. Those tattered wings spread wide and a big red metal dragon looks so majestic on display it's what triggered me to collect at least all the Beast figures that appeared in the show - TM (better) version.... I didnt like the dinoskater version - plus I didnt want the hassle of dealing with BPS

Which one is the show accurate version of Rampage though - Takara's or Hasbro's? I got the Hasbro one and Im fine with it... havent really transformed it though in Tank mode... need instructions heheheh

Really I'd be happy with Masterpiece 'anything' Beast Wars

Don't rule out the TM Rollerblade Megs. If you're scared of GPS, get hold of the Takara version. He's too good of a figure not to have.

I think Takara Rampage is closer to the mark colour-wise. But still a bit off in spots.

Seconded!

I definitely agree here, Goki very kindly proved it to me 1st hand that the Takara Release is the superior product but if you're not intending to muck around with Hasbro's version a lot then you should be right.

Hmm, I don't know; I've always felt that the Hasbro version was way closer as the Takara version's silver paint apps are way off, that being said though it still is a stunning version of the figure/character.
