    These are good, but nothing like the guy who does Star Wars photos on Instagram! He is top notch and looks like right out the film!

    After watching Baltmatrix review of the big ape, Optimus Primal does not impress me. I see left over issues from the LC Rodimus prime and such that Hasbro brought over from one toy to another. Hasbro cheap tricking it again.

    There is no need to be a fucking morondick towards our photo guy. He does a fucking great job and I doubt you would ever take a picture anything close to this

    First of all I dont feel I was knocking our photo guy. Hell, both guys probably know each, who knows.

    Second, Don't be a dick on the forum. Showing your all tough will not make you popular amongst the Transformer fans here.

    Seeing the Throne of The Primes with the little drawings of the other character's heads kinda made me think about something. What would the other character's SDCC release have looked like? For example, if Ultra Magnus had won then his would have either looked like him without the armor or Delta Magnus. I don't know what some others like Deszaras would have looked like. Red Geist, maybe?

    Awww how cute, you're using one of the weakest, most bs defenses ever.

    Are you a five star chef? Professional athlete? Award winning director?

    No?

    Then you better not have ever said a meal tasted bad, booed a sports team or said a movie sucked you God damn hypocrite. Don't use poor logic as a defense.

    Nice. I was wondering if any actually got sent out. My order is still sitting in the HTS shopping cart. After lag hell and then telling me they can't ship to Canada (after charging me the premium to ship to Canada!), they wouldn't let me check out, even with a US address. Maybe HTS has gotten better since I first signed up, I told myself... but no.

    Chill out guys. All good here. I see Annino's point, but I don't think Skyclaw meant any harm. Now, if every time I post a gallery he drops links to other people, I might be like hey now.

    RE: Dope photographers - IG has a ton. I run Toyark's IG account, and post my shots for non-tf (and TFW's TF shots I do) there too.

    And the KO has troubles when you try to insert the upper torso, for the longest time I used it with the torso hanging in the front like he had a barrel chest. :D  At least that way he kinda compliments Decibel, who has the torso far in the back due to the way they combine.

    Any G1 collector worth his salt will drop to his feet and kiss the ground Hasbro walks on for doing the unthinkable - and something not even Takara did so far - and re-releasing two of the most rare and hard to find molds in G1 ever. I have been collecting G1 most of my life and I never dared to think I could own the Dinocasettes, even owning the KOs was a great moment.
    I suspect the next exclusives (what's next, Toyfair? Hascon?) will be Graphy and Noise (=Decibel) in Volumes 3 and 4. And I will gladly pay the 60$ for each set, after selling the not needed toys from it, it still is far, far less than what I would have to pay for a genuine dinocasette - which is around 400-500$, IF you can find one, 'cause they appear on Ebay maybe once every 2-3 years. Even in Japan they are considered rare.

    I am very happy to have these reissues. I can't help but wonder though, how did they screw up the feet? Maybe these are made from new molds that were made by scanning in an original set of dinocassettes, and something went wrong? They would not intentionally modify the original mold when it was already correct in foot placement. It is a very annoying defect that detracts from an otherwise awesome reissue. Like I said, I'm glad to have them. I just don't understand how they screwed this up.

    Am just happy to have a Dile (Dairu) in my possession. He\'s my favorite obscure transformer.
