    nice stuff dude.

    Funny, why does Jaruga have Leozack as the main artwork on the card?

    Thanks HD!

    I'm not sure, but I'm pretty sure that the Autobot Rescue Force all had the same front Artwork (all with Leozack as the main 'bot).
    Those Euro Cards are not quite 100%
    - 'Jaruga' has its bubble loose towards the bottom of the card
    - the other two have some bent corners
    - Hawk is in excellent condition though

    Interesting. It's still a very nice haul though. Always nice to see sealed carded stuff.

    I know what you mean about carded figures! The Euro G1 - Gold Classics G1s - G2 era was my true upbringing on transformers so these are nostalgia central for me

    I can't read Japanese but I bought it mainly for the illustrations which are beautiful.
    I totally agree! I dedicated myself into finding this book for a reasonable price ever since flipping through Gok's copy at the Parra Fair meet. I gotta thank a member from TFW for this one

    A question: Is that BW guide book any good? Do you mind scanning a couple of pages so that I can have an idea of what it's like?
    Thanks Kup!
    The scanner at home doesnt seem to work at the moment, but it has the same layout presentation as the other books in the series by the author, Alvarez.
    Photography quality is not the best, but the comments he makes are interesting. It goes through the American and Japanese BW series, Beast Machines and Machine Wars. It even has a section on some KO BW figures!
    Will see if I can scan a few pics at work when I get the chance.

    I got the first crazydevy.com upgrade kit for ROTF Legends Devastator and the Jollibee set (Prime/BB/SS/Ironhide) of ROTF figures.
