    And a new robot mode collage for 2020, mostly recycled pics here, though.

    It helps putting them all on the same scale like that in robot mode. The constructicons either are MASSIVE or have tiny heads.

    Some nice fellas on this forum tipsed to ask here about a Sixshot i have.
    I have one that says 1986 with no Japan on it (one i have), but there are 1987 with Japan on them. Which one is real? Both? Anyone knows why? (Patent in US was filed in December 1986)
    PS - posted in Toys sub as well under "HELP IDENTIFYING SIXSHOT ORIGINALITY" - was advised to check here too
    Any one a specialist of Sixshot? :D

    I managed to get a G1 Megs in good condition for $15. Is there a reputable restoration outfit that specializes in TF’s?

    When Galvatron realizes that he's made a terrible mistake by making all his minions super tiny.

    I wish they did a three seeker set. Love to have Starscream, Thundercracker & Skywarp in a box set.

    Congratulations on your grail

    I was thinking to wait if the Walmart line reissues them out (seems they have had a good chance but lost out each poll), but this Takara one has the good original size missiles/rays. Some red eyes would have been nice since they coloured the eyes of many of the Autobots in the Encore line.

    I love a 'played with' Soundwave, the competent Decepticon. Both in fiction and in toy form.

    Having a beaten up Soundwave with playground battle damage, dulled silver, and a Ravage so worn the gold paint had rubbed from his eyes was a staple of the 1985 school playground cool kid. Same kids who had a Sony Walkman, could do the windmill from Breakdance: The Movie, and who wore the occasional fluorescent sock.
