    Hey, at least you got to actually ride the thing the toy turns into, which IIRC is the same ridemover system as the Amazing Spiderman ride (I only went to the parks once, back when the Hogwarts Castle was nothing but a growing lattice steel structure, and Amazing Spiderman was easily the coolest ride there).

    I only got mine from a guy in New Mexico, through the Junkion BST, purely by good fortune while I was hunting for an AM Breakdown that wasn't going to bankrupt me.

    Hey, can you tell me if Evac's backpack (basically the door 'wings' and the passenger/rider cabin) is tabbed onto that panel sticking out on his back? The instructions I got say that's what is supposed to be done, but the one time I did it there was a LOT of tension because the bottom hinge wasn't given enough clearance and after locking the tab in place, that tension just didn't feel right, as if it was going to break something sooner or later. Normally I just skip that step because I don't want to risk breaking it and getting a replacement would be prohibitively expensive (I lucked out and only paid $20 for mine in a lot), but if that's how he was packaged in the box then maybe the stress is intentional.

    Yeah I was on the fence about him until I handled him at a local meet up...after playing with it, I knew it needed to be in my collection.

    Ooh I remember Fearswoop...you could have killed this thread then and there! :lol 

    I've got some TM2 toys I bought second hand, and most of their chromes are flaking off :( 

    Wow he's much smaller than I thought. I like that.

    I think they are supposed to be homages to the micromasters Growl and Fireshot. I bought the set, and then sold Warcry...I really like the Explorer/Flameblast mold...in fact...now that I think about it, I have two Explorers...hmmm...

    Warcy is an MP Growl. exact same alt mode, same colours, everything. i like the explorer mold better than the munitioner mold, but i like warcry better than flameblast, wish they had made it blast master or someone that actually turned into a shuttle and not flameblast

    I must get those SW Black figures. Luke looks great (and I like pilot Luke better than Jedi Luke ;) )

    Pilot Luke is great except for there's no holster for his blaster...I thought it was strange they didn't include one...the R2 is cool, and the Darth Maul is outstanding.

    I was about jump in all over that Revoltech Prime, until I remembered my Prime is one of those Robot Replica thingamajigs which stole some Revoltech joints, but isn't a Revoltech figure.

    Curses.

    Sorry I'm late

    Sounds like they are well worth the price tag (about $34 here). I have to find time to visit TRU before the shopping becomes too crazy this time of the year.
    Thanks! :) 
    I momentarily thought of okaying Robot Replica, but nay :p 


    next one is TFTM Real Gear "Power Up VT6"
