Transformers questions by newbies, and not-so-newbies

[Ode to a Grasshopper]

Does anyone know if/where I can find a list of TFs by alt-mode?

I quite like the look of the new Beast Hunters Prowl but I'm struggling to find a character to repurpose him as.

^That's correct.

In Japan, Transformers Galaxy Force was intended to be a separate continuity from Micron Legend (Armada) and Super Link (Energon), but Hasbro insisted on making Cybertron in the same continuity. I've never watched Cybertron (only ever watched Galaxy Force), but I can easily imagine that Cybertron's premise would certainly feel shoehorned. Sure glad Hasbro doesn't awkwardly shoehorn continuities anymore!

They pretty much said any of the inconsitancies were caused by the Black Hole messing up the timeline.

tfu.info Goto ID your figure, pick color then car and it will show you everything in that category.

A memory wipe from an explosion or something would be better IMO. Blame it on the bla-ba-ba-ba-blacka-hole.

Gok do you just read TF wiki 24/7?

No, I've just been obsessed with Transformers 24/7 for the last 29 years so most of this stuff just floats in my head. TFwiki has its errors and I personally don't like the irreverent and subjective tone that it's written in. It has its uses and it's good for quick references, but nothing beats just watching/reading/playing with shows/comics/toys and obtaining the knowledge first hand.

Its well and truly written with a smile, relax Note winky face at end

Edit: Oh hang on are you talking about TFWiki's tone or mine?

I'll take irreverance over 'head-up-the-arse' that most wikis seem to adopt, any day.

[GoktimusPrime]

Maybe this is just my personal opinion, but I think it should be neither; I think wikis should just be neutral in tone and deliver facts without bias. Sure, people are entitled to voice opinions, but I don't think wikis are the time/place for it. I've never seen a wiki more loaded with blatant bias overtones than TFwiki. I've also never seen a wiki loaded with more spelling and grammatical errors than Tardis wikia. Lemme put it this way, I find Wikipedia has better standards than TFwiki... and it's not as if Wikipedia has terribly high standards!

I've bought my first Botcon and TF Club figures ever. Got the Rainmakers for $150 of ebay and Scourge for $99 of BBTS, but I see most people on ebay are charging way more for these figures.

I'm wonder how much the Club sells it's figures for in first place. Are they retail prices or does the club charge extra for all it's Botcon and TFSS figures?
