Oklahoma Transformers Sightings

I'm after HA Mudflap & Barricade, Leadser Starscream, and all the new movie molds, and the remaining TFA figures.

I can understand your frustration with TFA getting canceled early, but I won't let that keep me from enjoying the next line provided it's good. As long as they don't return to the beast era I'll probably be in.

I hope the next cartoon is american made.

I couldn't stand the mighty morphin animeformers, that had funny emotes everywhere, and crappy voice acting.

I buy those on DVD only so my son can watch them, otherwise those cartoons wouldn't be worth the spit.

Animated was good. I hope the next show is american made, and has consistency in its story.

It would nice if they did a Classics/Universe style series with a more mature theme and put it on say, AdultSwim. I would totally be into that. Of course they would also have to be running a second kid friendly show to support the larger fan/customer base.

MOVIE 2

Leader Starscream
HA Mudflap
Purple Bike (Elita-1) (if it's released)

MISC

Masterpiece Grimlock (since he was announced to come out here in the US next year)
Masterpiece Skywarp (HUGE MAYBE) (I really wanted to get an US Starscream but missed out)

After that I think I am done until the next movie comes out, as I refuse to buy toys based off the next show since they cancelled TFA so early. I won't let them drill me twice up the ass, as I support a show they will cancel in lue of the third movie.

Yes, because supporting the movie only to have it canned for animated only to have the next movie line include a plethora of the prior movie's figures only added dirt or paint is such a sound idea...I think if you look at any line, 18 months is expected life expectancy...long running or not they don't seem to have the running power of G1 and even that got stale and redundant after the 3rd year and post movie. I think it does well to slightly change up every so often to avoid the "I've already got that" syndrome.

The Tulsa Hills Bestbuy had the Matrix of Leadership G1 Boxset for $130. Which really isn't too bad of a deal, it's just a lot of money to spend all at once.

We should see Hasbro's MP Starscream in the next couple of weeks. I talked to a buddy that picked one up in Canada earlier this week. From what he said there are a few things that differ from Takara's version:

-yellow eyes
-purple stripes on the wings
-purple tail fins in alt mode
-different details on the missles
-no decal sheet

He also said that his joints are tight and he is easy to stand, which sounds better than some of the other early reviews I've read. I'm still on the fence though...

I meant Skywarp...

The Quail Springs TRU has 2 HA Skids this afternoon.

I'm on the fence of MP Skywarp as well, I already have the Takara version. I don't think I will go far out of my way to get him, but should I just happen upon him who knows may get the itch and snag him.

I'm on the prowl for Skywarp, unfortunately, 0-8 so far...but that might change soon, I just hope there isn't going to be a problem with people hoarding them in hopes of making some change....I'd reaalllllly like a sunstorm...because orange is cool!

IronPrime01 · 11-06-2009, 12:03 AM

There are now 5 MP Skywarps at Quail Springs Walmart.
