They remind me of the original basics from the Beast Wars line that were also springloaded autotransforms.

Oh fatbot, u make me jealous.![]()
Updating some of my few () recent acquistions:
- Crystal Convoy
- Classics 2.0 Prowl
- Classics 2.0 Sunstreaker
Lots of thanks to Paulbot for helping me out here. I would've been devastated to have to wait till September (possibly later) for these. Crystal Convoy rocks btw.
- Classics Megatron (immense gratitude once again to Paulbot)
- Cybertron Crosswise for free courtesy of Pulse via Unca Iceburn. I just love unwanted goods.![]()
Next, I was scouting around looking for certain items I wanted in the Target toysale. I'd hit a Toy Kingdom where I'd just picked up the Lego sets and then figured might as well as pop around to BigW. I get there and there's the usual. I pick up a few Deluxes and voyagers to scan them to see if there's any further evidence of a drop in prices across the boards. As I bring them back to the TF section, low and behold my eyes fell on this:

The last batch probably won't interest anyone very much but are very important to me:
I'm a massive fan of these new runs. That Shockwave cover is so rare and hard to find let alone get for a good price. It completes the foldout set of covers in the G1 War and Peace story where Shockwave got a lot of airtime.The Megatron homage to TFTM holo-foil cover is just love. And the Energon one has a great poster in the middle.
And for $7 too! That's just unbelievable. I have no idea where it was pulled from but it was definitely one of the acquisitons of the year for me. It's not the greatest of backing boards but I like the side views much like the Animated close ups on their side packaging but except here it's the combiner mode.
I picked up all 3 for about $28. I was very satisifed as I'd thought I'd just given up on the possibility of ever completing the joining covers

An Energon Scout in Big W that's... pretty amazing.
Was it $7... the ordering of your paragraphs seems to have gone awry.
