Transformers questions by newbies, and not-so-newbies

[roller]

As a collector whats worth more $$$$ wise and collecting wise between the first release G1 stuff and the G1 classic releases???

investemnt wise? You wouldn't be a scalper would you sir?

From what i remember, they are the exact same toy, maybe different production stamps.

But hey, G1 is g1, im sure there is someone out there who would prefer the original packaging to 'Classic'

go for classic, they rock

I feel that the 90s classic toys should be cheaper than than the 80s toys as they are not as old. Not many agree with me though...

You see plenty of people collecting boxed G1 figures but hardly anyone bothering with the G1 Classic releases...

I can remember at the last Parra Fair how Rampage had a Encore Jazz transplanted into a Classic box but not one of the sellers was interested in it...

I agree, mainly because the paint over the transparent plastics on some (Jazz, Sunstreaker, Tracks, Prowl, probably others) deteriorates with exposure to air on the Classics.

Did Micron Legends mini-con packs come with bio cards like the normal Micron/Superlink/Galaxy Force figures?

[GoktimusPrime]

yes

I had a question regarding the new universe series.

What do you guys think, does the Nemesis Prime and Onslaught releases remind you of RiD as well as G1? Scourge and Mega-Octane? I mean Mega-Octane is way more out there in colour than G1 Onslaught, but still, a completely unintentional motif? I think not!

ok heres one. any good places to buy TF's online. im generaly looking for G1 bots, and so far all i can see thats any good is ebay, mainly due to the multitiude of things, is there any aussie ones arround, apart from ebay? overseas ones would be sweet too.

I recommend international ebay over eBay Australia.

Interesting thought. RID started this evil Prime trend after all. The more pics you show of Onslaught the more I want it
