Got this guy thanks to Lord_Zed:



When it comes to the BW 10th Anniversary line, I really don't mind them. I know that Takara did a much better job but Hasbro's were still rather good in my oppinion and I prefer their paint jobs more than the originals even if Hasbro did not do them no where near as cartoon accurate as Takara.

Got these items all thanks to iceburn! Heeeheee... Thanks again dear bro! I really like your Protectabots and Stunticons! Next time I wanna transform them myself, heehee.. Also thanks to hanprimus for the MISB Grapple.



Got to say the G1 Hot Rod is in good shape! Still looks like a pretty new figure, if it weren't for the the sticker peeling a little on the leg and the original character card and the 1985 printed on the figure, I would have thought it was a reissue! Cyb Undermine to complete my list of Cybertron cartoon-only characters.

Awesome! Who ended up with the Scorponok?

[GoktimusPrime]

That G1 Hot Rod is in fabulous condition there mel!

But i got the transmutate arm from Kuzzy the day he opened that Dinobot

*slaps forehead* ah that's right! I got reissue Dinobot because I was planning on using it to repair my BW Grimlock, but then I found out that the part I wanted to use couldn't be removed so I gave up and ended up selling the toy complete near mint in box!

Hasbro gave us Transmutate. Hasbro win this round.

Their repaints were perfectly good too (generally speaking... *cough*Dinobot*cough*).

Plus they wanted to release X-9 Ravage as part of the line but *someone* lost the mold.

Oh?
The mold was lost???
Interesting info... when was that, Ilamatron?
Could you direct me to the source as I was wondering why for ages Hasbro's not done some repaint of that mold.

Good Lord! That's a HUGE haul!!!!
I want that Scorponok!!!

[autobreadticon]

GOOD HAUL Iceburn and friends

[Verno]

I've heard this 'lost mould' rumours shite before. They said that they'd lost the mould for original Rattrap, thats why they released the TM version.

Has anyone checked with the BotCon people? It seems that whatever glorious BW figures get spat on for that convention the mould then dissapears. And now the same with Ravage.

(Although the Ravage one dissappearing might not be so bad, for those of us who have one, cos now they're worth more :P)
