RTS Wreck-Gar and Perceptor are incredible. Especially Perceptor.

Post by **Best First** » Fri Feb 11, 2011 11:39 am

disagree!!

Perceptor is nice, but a bit back heavy. Nice touch

But Wreck-Gar is almost Cyclonus levels of amazing.

G2 Prime is quite nice, bit plasticy but funky poseable - slight movie vibe.

And reveal the shield BB is neato as well.

Too many good toys. Nice.

Wreck-Gar tho - phenominal.

Where are you guys getting Perceptor and Wreck Gar? In the states, that is.

Post by **Best First** » Fri Feb 11, 2011 5:45 pm

i got it from iliveinenglandandsogotitonebayfromsomeonewhoimportedit

There's a branch in every town.

I found them at Target.

G2 Prime is quite nice, bit plasticy but funky poseable - slight movie vibe.

I agree, and that tab on the right shoulder drives me nuts. Shame, since I had high hopes for the figure.

The lower wheels on G2 Prime piss me off. I have already broken the edges of one and I wasn't even forcing it. Argh.

Wreck-Gar is fantastic. Pure love. I will definitely buy more Junkions.

Perceptor is much nicer in the flesh than the pictures made out. I agree he is a bit backheavy though. I look forward to the Reflector repaint.

Grapple is a nice figure too, but then I really liked Inferno.

RTS Lugnut is AMAZING though.

I grabbed Straxus from Wal*Mart in Canadialand for $15...sweet Jesus, he's awesome. Really, really awesome.

I may need a Thunderwing too.

And slapping seibertron around with images of him properly transformed, no doubt.

Wham? Bam? Zowie?

Definitely want that one over the mini one. Still I doubt he'd be bigger than Leader class Brawl, but hey.

Got m'self Jazz and Dirge today!!! Woop alllliooooopp!

Post by **Best First** » Thu Feb 24, 2011 10:44 am

Hopfeully jazz, Wheeljack and Kup are all on their way to me as i type.

Yaya · Post by **Yaya** » Thu Feb 24, 2011 3:25 pm

Nabbed a Jazz. Waitin fer Windcharger. I think I want Wreck-Gar more than any other right now. Kup too.

Mr_Tigg · Post by **Mr_Tigg** » Sat Mar 19, 2011 12:20 pm

Kup & Scourge have been added to the collection now!

Only Mr. W.Path to go!

Yaya · Post by **Yaya** » Sat Mar 19, 2011 3:14 pm

Doh! Had a Scourge in my hand and put it back thinking I had already bought him. Went home, and realized it was a Blurr. When I went back, he was gone. In a blur. Awful pun intended.

So I'm missing a Scourge, Chargy, Warpy, er sorry, The Path, and Kup and I think that about wraps it up. For now, anyway.

I decided yesterday to estimate how much my toy collection is worth. It's easily the most valuable thing I own besides my car. My TF collection is upwards of $10,000, amassed over the past 25 years. My Godzilla toys are worth about $5000. My most valuable item is a two-pack Inframan/Skull Warrior set going for $1500 on Ebay right now. (Inframan was China's first superhero, for those who don't know.). Then I have a Spectreman worth about $350, who was probably one of Japans first superheroes. Maybe Smooth knows who he is. Got some Star Wars Sideshow Collectible figures which are worth hundreds.

Anybody insure their collections? I hadn't really thought about it, but after running the numbers, maybe a good idea to do so. I imagine you guys also have pretty large collections of toys and collectibles.

Post by **Best First** » Mon Mar 21, 2011 11:18 am

the problem is i think you need some specialist insuarance which i suspect is so pricey it aint worth it

at least that is the impression i got when i looked into it in a vaguely half assed manner several years ago

Got Mirage and Prowl on ebay last week. Prowl is very meh but Mirage is ruddy lovely.

Kup, Wheeljack and Scourge still not arrived... boo.

Hound · Post by **Hound** » Mon Mar 21, 2011 2:08 pm

Mirage is one of my fave in the series. Awesome articulation.

Prowl is just so... Meh. I hate his 'neck'. Legends Prowl is much better!

Hey guys, what's up?

After nearly completing the main Animated line, I'm now hooked on Universe etc. This toyline = win.

I have Jazz, Tracks, Optimus, Bumblebee, Hound, Sideswipe, Sunstreaker, Red Alert, Ironhide, Prowl, Silverstreak, Perceptor, Rodimus, Kup, Wreck-Gar. And Drift.

As well as Thundercracker, Skywarp, Dirge, Thrust, Ravage, Galvatron, Cyclonus and Scourge.

Got most of them through www.archonia.com in Belgium, now I am getting stuff on eBay and similar sites. Still looking for the likes of Blurr, Wheeljack, Ratchet, Smokescreen, Mirage, Jetfire, Starscream and Ramjet.

Post by **Best First** » Tue Apr 12, 2011 10:53 pm

Got Wheeljack, Scorge and Kup.

Kup is ace apart from a slightly odd facial expression - maybe it's supposed to be dementia.

Scourge was never gonna be as good as Cyclonus was he? Shame no Fracas tho.

Wheeljack is neat-o. Both he and tracks appear to have made their way to my bedside table.

When is The Path out? I need im. Oh, and a Windcharger.

We should start importing in bulk.

Hot Shot · Post by **Hot Shot** » Wed Apr 13, 2011 1:45 am

Can anyone help me get my hands on a Windcharger? Apparently he's not getting released here in the US and he's selling for crazy money on eBay. I've got Paypal and can trade Animated Electrostatic Soundwave and/or Freeway Jazz still MISP.

Yaya · Post by **Yaya** » Wed Apr 13, 2011 1:48 am

Windcharger always gets the shaft! Just need him and Wheeljack.

Professor Smooth · Post by **Professor Smooth** » Wed Apr 13, 2011 8:31 am

This wave (Wreck-Gar, Kup, Scourge, Perceptor) really sold me on TF:United. They're just gorgeous.

...sadly, I picked them up for friends and didn't buy any for myself.

Oh, that Rumble and Frenzy set? ****ing BEAUTIFUL!

Hook2 · Post by **Hook2** » Thu Apr 14, 2011 11:57 pm

Love this thread.

Currenlty obessed with trying to find RTS voyagers.

And army building Sweeps!(Got three already)

And LOVE Thundercracker!

Hook2 · Post by **Hook2** » Fri Apr 22, 2011 11:46 pm

Wonder what the next classics line will include? Hopefully a Galvatron who doesn't fall apart every time I touch him.

The first time I transformed Universe Galvatron, I had to have a drink afterwards...

bumblemusprime · Post by **bumblemusprime** » Wed Apr 27, 2011 3:41 pm

We're being sucked into it!

After getting myself a Universe Classic and the kid an Animated Dinobot, I'm trolling ebay looking for lots so I can wipe out some of the figures in a good 2-300$ go.

And I found this:

http://cgi.ebay.com/TRANSFORMERS-MEGA-L ... 3f0940c4a3

What has to happen to a man that makes him resort to selling that? I imagine chemo bills. Morbid, or probably morbidly accurate?

Post by **Best First** » Wed Apr 27, 2011 4:05 pm

no international shipping!

Let's all chip in $100 and bury Spence in transformer love...

This is the best idea you, or anyone, has ever had.
