Transformers questions by newbies, and not-so-newbies

[canofwhoopass_87]

Lol that's exactly what brought me to ask the question! I took off the helmet and... gah!

I was thinking maybe the hasbronians couldn't be bothered making a bigger mold or something? ... I dunno I'm a noob.

They are all suppossed to swap, and in the Japanese Series different heads "grant" different powers. Plus, as it's a part to be lost, the replacement Japanese exlusive heads need to fit all the figures too....

Same reason for the Powermaster engines, and the spare ones that were available for them as well.

Luckily they actually made another headmaster for Fort Max.... could you picture him with Spike and just an extra helmit? *shudders*

*nods* That's also why all the Transtectors (bodies) have tech spec meters which differ depending on which Nebulan you binary bond to it - hence they need to be a universal size. And yeah, as SilverDragon pointed out - continuity wise it also makes sense because they're all meant to be human-sized Nebulans (who are meant to be non-Terran humans (comics), near-humans (cartoon) or human-sized robots (animé)); so the canon also justifies the small size.

Fortress Maximus' Spike is also the same size, hence why he needs to bond to Cerebros to make the head big enough for Maximus' body.

Here's a random one for you,

i've got my eye one a genuine (this time its actually real) G1 Optimus Prime MIB.
the box is in seriously great condition for its age but the only thing that bugs me, well what i think bugs me; is that because its from canada, its got both French and english text.

do you think this should lower is value and hopefully buying price because its not an american box? unfortunately the seller does not state such fact and only found out when he sent me better photos.

not to be racist or anything like that but does international language on items like this bother you?

[canofwhoopass_87]

I know what you mean. I'm asian myself but I feel that the japanese G1's have a cheap feel to them in comparison to the US G1 boxes. Quite the contrary though, I reckon the jap g1's are generally more expensive and rare

I suppose it varies with the collector

who created the guy who created unicron?

[Linthart]

who created the guy who created unicron?

His mum

I think you mean "who is the guy who created Unicron?"

[Omega Supreme]

who created the guy who created unicron?

In the cartoon ? Primacon

[canofwhoopass_87]

He created unicron. I think the question was "who created primacon?"

[GoktimusPrime]

In the worlds before Primacron, primal chaos reigned. Heaven sought order, but the phoenix can fly only when it's feathers are grown. The four worlds formed again and yet again, As endless aeons wheeled and passed. Time and the pure essences of Heaven, the moistures of the Earth,and the powers of the Sun and the Moon all worked upon a certain rock - old as creation, and it magically became fertile... Elemental forces caused the egg to hatch. From it then came a stone Primacron... The nature of Primacron was irrepressible!
