Transformers questions by newbies, and not-so-newbies

That is true - for those of us who were collecting/importing during the US50c era, these are still 'good times'. It's always annoying when it does a big plunge, especially just before a big purchase, but could easily be a lot worse.

Yeah but also keep in mind that after market prices for several G1 toys have increased considerably since then.

Do you mean USD$2000?

Yep, US $$$. That is about the average I have seen most MIB ones go for.

I've been offered one that is MIB with complete paperworks but a broken zarak figure for quite a bit below that amount. I didn't imagine that a Black Zarak costs that much, looks like I still have lots to learn...

(will update you guys further on how that develops)

I currently have the original 2003 release of the '86 movie. Is it worth 'double-dipping' to get the 2007 2-disc special edition?

the other dude NEVER sent Fort Max to me. When I called his house his partner told me that he had ran out on her and the children and had taken Fort Max and all his possessions with him and left them in debt. *sigh*

That guy is a major, major douchebag for doing that to his family. I mean, toy selling fraud he caused you is one thing, but yeah... geez.

I dunno, my first reaction was that he just cooked up some story with his partner (in crime)

In that case she gave me an Oscar winning performance over the phone then. (T_T)

Go Blu-ray.

this is just trivial -

I've recently started watching the animated series (i know i'm years behind but the artwork just put me off at first) and i must say im enjoying it a lot! the plot is brilliant and so is the script!

i noticed they pay tribute to the G1s... so here's my question
in Transformers Animated episode 13 (headmasters) ... there's a scene where the Detective is listening to a music inside his bumblebee look-a-like car. Does anyone know if the music he's playing on his car radio has any bearing to anything from the past?

That's what I thought too when I read it. It's too melodramatic and convenient.
