Transformers questions by newbies, and not-so-newbies

[Kyle]

in the days of old we never had group orders or orders from overseas in large quantities of toys, is this because we didn't have someone like Kyle for example who has contacts, or another reason?

Don't forget cool people such as Tetsuwan, blackie, jaydisc, iceburn, Tober, STL, gamblor...

[Kyle]

What is the tech spec number for Takara Collection Megatron?

6

Is there any chance of Hasbro releasing the other seekers?

I know it was said that they would never be released due to the Botcon exclusives but henkei are releasing the modified molds

I'm not an overly serious collector but I always wanted a Thrust and I don't want to pay the big bucks for it

Am I SOL?

[griffin]

Anything is possible from Hasbro, but if they did the remaining Classic Seekers, it would be in the Universe line, and we won't be seeing anymore Universe toys until after the Movie Season is over (end of 2009, early 2010).
I think there would be a good chance though, now that Takara have moulded new wings for Dirge and Thrust, which gets around upsetting those with the BotCon versions, sorta...

I have noticed a considerable reduction in the value of the Botcon Seekers on ebay since the exclusive Henkeis were released.

It is still terribly expensive for us due to the fallen AU$ but their US$ value has certainly dropped.

On the other hand, the Botcon 2006 toys are reaching insane prices.

I don't get why the tech-spec number would be numbered 6
according to the Jp I.D listing on transwiki

the following is a bit spoilerish if you haven't watched beast wars






So, the Tripredicus council are not Decepticons or decepticon descendants?

im pretty sure Tarantulus says this near the end of the series

But then there is some doubt as in Agenda part 1 they make some pretty pro decepticon comments

Does Ravage know that the council are not Decepticons?

those governments ads are quite silly
