Transformers questions by newbies, and not-so-newbies

*SNIP*
Seems to be a bit of a misconception going around.....
Wave 3 is Red Alert, Soundwave, Megatron, Darkmount, Bumblebee and Drift

Wave 4 is said to be Dirge, Blurr, Megatron, Saoundwave, Red Alert and Prime

They seem to be doing cases with doubles of 2 new figures plus 4 from previous assortments. Wave 5 will probably just have 2 new figures as well.

just to confirm with some pretty pics

Wave 1




Wave 2



Wave 3



Wave 4

well thats easy. WFC Megs and soundwave, then Red Alert and MAYBE Blurr, though i havent decided with him yet.

How is the head of TM Waspinator connected to the body? I assume its ball jointed but is the socket on the head or the torso? basically want to know how hard a head swap would be.

To answer your question Gutsman,
Beast Wars TransMetal Waspinator's head is indeed connected to the body via a Ball and Socket joint.
The Socket being located on the body and the Ball located on the base of Waspy's neck.

Hope that help's mate, I'd've taken pics but I'm embarrassed by how incredibly dusty mine is.

thanks for the picture guide Sharky. My local stores are still stuck on Wave 1... so it looks like I won't be finding Dirge till 2011.

Could anyone who owns a G1 Fortress Maximus Photon Rifle please weigh it for me - I just received one in the mail and the plastic has an almost 'brittle' quality to it and I'm slightly skeptical about its authenticity. Mine weighs in at 33 grams. Thanks.

Has anyone been able to weigh this yet?

[GoktimusPrime]

If you buy me a Fort Max photon rifle I'll weigh it for you. ;p Have you tried just bringing it to a jeweller and asking them to weigh it for you? I'd consider doing that if I were you.

I think he is wanting someone to weigh theirs so he can compare to the one he has. I'd do it if I had one

A qiuck question about G1 Bumblejumper.
i have found a ok one one TFW but the wheel rivits are rusted, just wondering if any other Mini bot had the same arms?
My thinking is that i could take Bumblejumper apart and swap his arem for Cliffjumper's or Bumblebee's that way he mint.

Can anyone confirm that the all have the same size wheels and arms?
