    Default Can someone clear this up for me..

    I'm trying to collect the Transformers Universe Figures.

    However I'm finding alot of weird things when I'm trying to find old stock of them.

    I have 2 Questions -


    1) Is there a list online of all the Universe Figures released to date, with pics, so I can go through them, say one a week or something?

    2) What's the difference here, are these the wrong kind of figures?

    This Star Scream ^ looks nothing like my Universe one.

    1) cant help you there but im sure someone else can

    2)the one you have linked to ebay is the legends size so its only about an inch or two high whereas your one is obvisouly the deluxe sized one

    Zaul: There's a thread for asking all kinds of questions here. Neater than making a new thread each time you have a question, and more likely to get the response you need.

    1) There are lists on TFU.info and TFwiki

    2) loophole is correct - the first one is Legends while the other is Deluxe. Legends Universe Starscream is a repaint of Cybertron Legends Thundercracker whereas Universe Deluxe Starscream is a reissue and repaint of Classics Starscream. Size-wise that Legends mould is 9cm and the Deluxe is 14cm in robot modes.

    The current Universe toyline (2008 - 2009) is a continuation of the Classics toyline (2006 - 2007):

    Hasbro's Classics:

    Hasbro's Universe:
    http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Universe_%282008_toyline%29

    Selected Classics/Universe toys were released as repaints in Japan in TakaraTomy's "Henkei" toyline:

    If you take a look at the above pages, you'd notice that there were more than one Starscream toy. What does your one look like?

    I like TFArchive's checklists, but their Universe one combines Classics & Henkei with it as well.
