Edit buttons aren't available to Protoforms.

That would explain it. I spent a while looking for it.

Is Transformers RiD worth watching? I have heard good and bad about it any comments? Im wanting another series to watch as I am going to steer clear from The Unicron Trilogy for a while.

RID is great fun. It's more like TFAnimated than the Unicron Trilogy.

I'm about 3/4 through RiD and I'm enjoying it. The only annoying characters are Side Burn and to a lesser degree Ultra Magnus IMO.

I'd recommend watching the original Car Robot over RiD for various reasons, but I don't know if anyone's ever translated the series into English (fan sub or otherwise), so RiD is probably the only way to watch it unless you can understand Japanese.

I would recommend watching it though. The show is primarily aimed at a very young audience, but within that context I think it's pretty well done.

Car Robot/RiD has some pretty cool toys though. It combined the improved engineering innovations from Beast Wars (e.g.: full articulation, detailed sculpting, better paint apps etc.) and instead of animals used licensed vehicles (e.g. Diablo, ML320, Dodge Viper etc.) Car Robot/RiD was the inspiration for Binaltech/Alternators.

Where would I get RiD? IT wasnt released in Australia was it?

CryptriK, I believe RiD was only released on DVD in the UK. I ordered my DVDs from amazon.co.uk

I loved RiD. Some of the characters are still some of my favourites

• Scourge
  Landfill (Build Team)
  Rail Racer
  Sky-Byte and the Predacons

Also the final battle is epic with Prime and his Matrix Blade

Can't remember how much I paid. Looked on eBay for ages and couldn't find them. Got them eventually from Amazon.com.uk i think

I've seen a lot of G1 ebay auctions (euro listings in particular) listed as "job lots". This seems a common title - what does the "job" bit mean exactly?
