Wash your mouth out with soap and water! Although I wouldn't complain if we received them before Jazz, simply because they would add more variation to the Autobot line-up (and they're certainly my most-wanted Autobots after Jazz given that we have Wheeljack and BB on the way).

 

Yes that's a valid point, their rarity is part of their appeal I guess. However there definitely seemed to be a strong monetary element to some collectors arguements to why TT shouldn't reissue Fort Max or to a lesser extent Stepper. Some were along the lines that they effectively paid over the odds in years previous to that and now a 'cheaper' version existed.

 

I'd say rarity only goes so far with me. Fort max wasn't about rarity it was about how epic it is. The biggest vintage transformer - yeah I'm in.

Artfire was just the fact that he was an actual character (comic based at least) and it's an autobot car.

Some rarities such as a japanese Blue Bacchus even if reissued would carry no interest from me for instance. I have no idea why but it's a case of I have no attachment to the character or toy I guess.

Now a reissue victory saber - I'd buy the shit outta that.

 

Blue Bacchus I would have like that. Awesome toy and great colour scheme. But I am a whore for Japanese stuff. Grandus!!!

 

If honest Jon you could have just missed out "for japanese stuff"

 

 

Valid point. I do have a loose anus.

 

 

Taking the thread to new lows. It's like AA in here

 

If that's what AA is like these days it's good I haven't been for a while! It wasn't like that back in my day of going!

 

After AA 2013, Shockscream couldn't sit down for a week.

 

Bicycles and barstools are still problematic to this day.

 

Only 2013? I refer to the realisation that I have more articulation in my hips than I thought I did. A revelation brought to me my Easterling Capt at my first AA in 2010 when he picked me up while dressed as Bumblebee and proceeded to, well, take me in a glorious, manly, and not unloving manner.

 

Just wait until after this year's AA. Shockscream will be legally dead after I'm done with him.

 

Well, that descended quickly!

 

Yep, Aaron was responsible for my adult collecting getting underway back in the day. Bought some G1 re-issues off him, which then went to henkei stuff, binaltech and my MP01 was from xybertoys (no customs rapage in sight).

Always used to get a deal from him. It was really nice to see and catch up with him last year, its a shame he's not as active as he was.

 

You know there supposed to be a Megatron leader toy coming out is it a rumour backed by sources that he's a tank. or just wishful thinking as thinking about Rhinox (Voyager) and Rattrap(Deluxe) it got me wondering what if Leader Megatron is the Beast Wars version !

[If it was would Transmetal or Purple dino version be best ?]

That would be a terrific SDCC début I'd say.

 

I've developed Swede-blocking ninja skillz. They basically involve me doing what Multiple Miggs did to Clarice Starling in Silence of the Lambs, but I don't think you'll mind that too much.

Anyway... Yes, we really go for the toys. The people are secondary. (I might have got that the wrong way around.)

 

Mustn't make a rectal prolapse comment.

 

It's a tank.

And yes AA 2014 - the year shockscream becomes a man! Via Pete and jon

 

Who gets to be at which end though?

 

How many from this thread are going to AA? Really tempted to make an appearance...
