    "Kids these days..." Am I right? I'm 36 but people think I'm older than my 68 year old father.

    If the young 'uns wanna make new idioms, they need to make new ones, not change the meaning of old ones.

    off the chain is older saying IIRC. Older than off teh hook but still newer than off the hook the original meaning.

    Just one more!


    Okay I'm done. Saw the prototype for the new figure coming from that Chinese cooperation but I'm more interested in this one because it transforms.

    I think we're considered the Oregon Trailers since we all played that game in elementary. That or we all have dysentery.

    Just saw this review of Aoyi (aka Black Mamba) LS-13. Aside from the knee, it actually looks pretty good. And for $67US, I think I might pick this up too.

    Well thanks for this :mad:  I preordered and was following the TW version and was completely content to ignore all the other versions. Now I've got preorders in for both TW and Aoyi :( :p

    Well heck! At 67 ducks I am think I might lean towards this more and my wife wont be as ticked with the price haha. This looks really awesome and I think is right on par with ToyWorlds in my opinion. Gonna wait on a review for Tw's but I am seriously thinking this one will be my Movie OP.

    Ooh those glossy reds and blues... If only Toyworlds had this finish. That Aoyi Prime does look like they made some improvements since I last followed its development, but am I right in saying it's a cm or two taller than Freedom Leader? That's a big deal for me, and despite its upgrades I think the TW Prime still looks better. For me I'm sticking with my TW preorder, and keeping a very keen eye on that TransCraft teaser to see if that matches up to their Bumblebee prototype.

    That Aoyi sure looks fun to transform. TW still looks better... but not almost three times better as the price would suggest. I think it's time TW showed something about how FL transforms and not just photos in bot mode.

    Damn. When did I become the guy saying that 3P prices are reasonable while everybody else is calling them too expensive? I used to be the first to complain about prices but Toyworld's price just seems downright reasonable on this guy.

    ToyWorld is expensive yes or yes. It could be a great figure but it has that dirty truck mode, it sucks. And I'm saying this in despite of paid the whole figure in ShowZ but I'm starting to think in cancel the order. Too many Bee Primes, too many prices. TW Prime can be the best Prime in bot mode but not the best figure in overall, and the accesories increases the price (who wants weapons that don't even exists in the movie when we're all talking about "movie accurate figure"?). I don't now... But there's too many hype with this figure and the weathered truck is a decisive reason for many people to not buy it.

    You can eat some greasy food using your hands before playing with the UT one. That's how you can get a dirty truck without paying extra.
