    I had a feeling the baby would be.

    Leos are handsome and beautiful people. :) 

    I went the to MTL Toycon with two babies. SMOG saved my 3 year old daughter. She dove into a bin of TFs. Hahahaha.

    Is she going to be a Leo? lol Well then, how appropriate seeing as we are currently going through the battle of the two Leo's (Sorry UT, you were never really a part of this race)

    That's a good reason to buy one now. LOL I'd recommend TFC from what I've seen so far. Hopefully it continues that way.

    Boo to you Seali. I'm MMC all the way.


    Maybe one day when all is said and done I will jump on to the TFC version but it is still way too early to tell. If trends hold true they will do something to put me off al la Black Blade and 6th member drone/chest shield/requiring a upgrade set to make it look like superion.

    You are Rob Liefeld's biggest fan:lol 

    We already know TFC Toys isn't going to take its time with Ares, they're quickly playing catch up and are trying to beat MMC out of the gate.

    Congratulations, man. Is this your first child?

    If you and your wife haven't settled on a name yet, might I suggest Leona:p

    in case anyone needs:

    TFCTOYS:回复@搬运兵:狮子和黑鸟身高持平 (06-01 22:59)

    That's translated as

    TFCTOYS: reply@XYZ (username): Lion and Bird's height are equal.

    Oh, okay. Thanks for clearing that up.

    How tall is Blackbird again? 9 inches?
    I'm sure your interest in Transformers will rub off on her. Mine did on my daughter.

    Her first Transformer was Transformers Animated Blackarachnia, though she wanted Arcee--she liked both, but she had to wait until Arcee was available for purchase.

    She won't admit to liking Transformers now, since the girls at her school are into completely different things, but she won't shy away from sitting next to me and my son on Saturday mornings to watch Transformers Prime:D 

    ;)

    Sigh. I said the same thing with Uranus. They should take their time. Man, TFC's gotta do it right the third time.

    Yeah you buy MMC you support Liefeld's work. :)  LOL

    My daughter grew up with Devastator. From custom ptitvite Dev, to G1, to Hercules. She now loves the colour too. LOL

    So the silhouettes which have the same size is accurate? Noiiiice!

    I am unsure. I just translated it as I understood it.

    The problem is, they don't say what height. robot height? or beast height? I guess naturally the assumption is that they are talking about robot height cuz beast height the same doesn't even make sense or is of any interest.
