Encore Cassettes Vol 2

Got these today. Love them, love them, love them. The use of tampoing over stickers made these stand out. I passed on Vol 1 because I had 3/4 of them, but now I feel compelled to get them if the quality is the same as these.

All the joints are tight, as are the weapons. Steeljaw has a bit of different coloring going on. His feet and legs are more of a lemon yellow, while his body is slighty more oranger. I don't mind it at all; I actually like the look. I don't believe this was the case on the Steeljaw I got with TFC Blaster (Broadcast).

The plastic quality feels much better over the last cassette pack I got, the Kissplay Position tapes, which felt like a much softer plastic. *EDIT* I was wrong, the legs are diecast. My mistake.

If you can find these, I highly recommend them.

Whoa, even some of the screws are painted over with the tape label deails. (guess that makes sense, as they would probably be covered over with stickers originally.)

How the Animated toy line REALLY came to an end

Encore 17 Big Mission Vol. 2 Ramhorn Steeljaw Ratbat Slugfest Cassettes Photos


See ALL the photos at KO TOYS

Encore 17 Big Mission Vol. 2 Ramhorn Steeljaw Ratbat Slugfest Cassettes Photos


He shoots, HE SCORES, HaT TriCK

and the crowd goes WiLd!

Here are photos of the new Encore 17 Big Mission Vol. 2 which contains Steeljaw, Ramhorn, Ratbat and Slugfest.

I love cassette transformers and I have been waiting for these reissues for a while. Luckily I did not need Steeljaw as I already have the reissue from the Blaster TFC book reissue, and I am very happy I do as...

This steeljaw in encore 17 is made from 2 different colors of yellow plastic. One is drastically lighter then the others. Now this is still kind of cool, but if you want a steeljaw that does not look like a KO or your G1 Steeljaw, this isnt what you are probably after.... Even the sticker is FAR TOO BRIGHT, and really makes the cassette look cheap. The sticker is also weaker then the TFC reissue as you can see a screw in one corner, where on the TFC reissue you can not.

Other Cassettes, IMO, look very nice. Ratbat is much better compared to his KO counterpart. Ratbat was one of the high end KOs that was not great as he was a little loose... this one is nice and tight and has gold weapons.

Ramhorn and Slugfest I have nothing to compare them to, no previous reissues and I do not own a G1, but I enjoy them alot

So since I already havea steel jaw t
hat looks like the G1 counterpart, Im happy to get this odd looking one... but if some people might not be very happy with him...

Now as usual, I took a ton of photos of these, I picked out 88 from the load I took. I took a lot so that you can inspect the quality closely from the photos and so that you could have a good amount of photos for comparisons.




The steeljaw on the left is the TFC book reissue, the one on the right in the next 2 photos is the encore 17

Not really news. I posted it in the feedback forum yesterday (probably where it belongs). No offense meant.
