[COLLECTION] [CREATIVE] [MK COLLECTION]
I reckon it might be worth picking up the new MP Starscream coming out end of this month. I'm holding out for Skywarp/Thundercracker repaints as well.
Since the announcement of the new MP seeker mould, the prices for the original MP seekers has dropped significantly.
and yeh I agree - Megatron is too much of a hassle. I went through the pain of acquiring one and it just ain't worth it. The MP just doesn't do Megsy any justice. His gun alt mode is alright though.
Most online stores will state in the listing whether or not it's the 2nd run release. However, it'd be nice to know if there are any differences on the box or figure to look out for
Thanks for the offer Cat, but with all the security measures needed to own MP Megsy, it's not worth the bother.
I'm leaning towards getting the Hasbro versions of the figures mostly to save cash, but it also make Magnus all the more special!
Still would appreciate others advice/thoughts/suggestions too.
Looking For: Wreckers Saga TPB Collection (with Requiem)
In the resource section, should there be a thread with all the faction symbols and what they represent? I am looking up the top on the banner and trying to work out what every faction symbol is for?
Having trouble with all the non face ones
There's a few tells. The upper arm construction is a good one.
There's other changes, google it as I know comparisons have been made, listing every alteration. Not all are visible.
Any good retailer will specifically list it as being a second batch piece (Ie BBTS does).
If you're getting the Hasbro version, well, this doesn't apply. They're all the same, and all fixed from the first run TakTom (but uses a different upper arm set-up than either of the TakTom ones. A lot of people don't like it. It's a complete non-issue for me, as I think it's just fine. YMMV, of course)
It's basically down to whether or not you want to spend over $150 extra just for the trailer.
Check tfwiki.net, as they have a page full of them.

This has them all listed and pictured. Extremely comprehensive!

You owe me a coke.
Can anyone inform me as to whether the Madman issues of the G1 DVDs use the Rhino footage or not?

I have the original Madman DVDs (pre-tin box set) and yeah, they use the Rhino stuff with their stoopid added sound effects. I bought them heaps cheap from a second hand store after my entire DVD collection (including my original US Rhino G1 DVD box sets) were stolen in a burglary.
