Xmas Wish List

[Verno]

If you go for the new ones, Dinobot is certainly worth it but you need to go for the Henkei Japanese version as Hasbro has screwed up the colors on the local release.

Cheetor is not that good but he is not terrible - again Henkei version is better.

So it's the 10th Anniversary paint jobs all over again? Hasbro get a blind guy to guess the colours for what the toys should be, where as Takara actually watch the show and paint them appropriately?

As I said, it all hinges on this Rhinox coming to fruition. We can dream.

Speak for yourself. Transformers has always been #1 on my want list for xmas, birthdays etc. ever since 1984. So they would've been right up the top of my list on my 9th birthday, in fact - they were!

Here's a photo from my 9th birthday right here:

...as if I'd want anything else other than a Transformer!

Yea man, I was speaking for myself. My post wasn't about you. Read and chill. I just found, and still do find, that there are better toys out there for xmas. Deal with it. My #1 want was a tamyia super hornet. But instead I got a scalextric bathurst ford/holden Slot car set. It was super mega cool.

Birthdays on the other hand, yea, that's where TFs were my #1 choice, and where I got most of them at, and were also the "at the toy store begging parents for" thing as well.

hey!! my list has stuff on it that i actually wanted as a kid and one of them i actually bought with birthday money cause i really wanted it

Yea cool. I was actually meaning for present day and what my 9 year old self selection criteria would be. Because being my current age, no way I'd willingly want an ultimate Bumbles.

If they ever released Transformer slot cars now I'd pick up a set in a heartbeat

Menasor Giftset

spotted one of those on ebay last month, and it was in pretty good condition too. Naturally the urge to buy was overwhelming, but at $941... oh well.

This is unfair, there wasn't any TF's when I was a 9 year old kid, Micronauts, Micronauts and more Micronauts is what I asked for at that age with the odd Shogun warrior thrown in. I also used to collect a lot of the Airfix(I think) 1/32 scale plastic soldiers as they had the best detailing. If I was 9 years old now Transformers would be high on my list but game consoles and video games most probably would top it(just not the wii it's craptacular control system drove me away).

Transformers has ancestry in Micronauts (Microman).

[heroic_decepticon]

just want 2 things...

#1 - To buy the Ravage and Rumble set I was denied when I was 9.

#2 - to experience again walking through SG shopping centres like Isetan (Havelock), OG (People's Park) and Metro, and just seeing and touching the shelves and shelves and hundreds and hundreds of MISB C10 G1 Transformers they have there...

+1

I've had this reoccurring dream of me being in a shopping centre (possibly Target) and finding all old stock G1's in a clearance bargain bin. I then proceed to get the largest trolley I can find (one of those baby carriage ones) and tipping the lot in I wonder if this is what heaven is like....
