Nice! I'm waiting on my incomplete one to come in. I'm jelly of your radars and Spinner.

 

mine's been a slow process, lol and blot's arms have a tendency too be floppy at the elbows, so i've been picky with him

 

a drop of future will fix any flop.

 

if i could find future in canada, maybe, but for some reason, i don't care about putting superglue/whatever on newer figures to tighten them up, but on g1s, not as fond of it lol, i have a couple micromasters from when i was young that are floppy, but still haven't tightened them up

 

I thought there was a thread that showed what future was in each place around the world. In the US I know it is pledge with future.

 

no idea, must've missed it

got a few more risers, almost how i want to display my g1s

 

Only a few more Pre-G1s left to go! Today it's Mugen Calibur's time in the spotlight!  















As for the differences, Besides the paintjob, Mugen Calibur has a driver & his back antenna comes to a tip (Roadbuster's antenna is a little more rounded).

About the bot-mode pics, When I tried to extend Mugen Calibur's legs, they wouldn't extend any further than that. Considering what I paid for him, I wasn't about to take the risk. & for some reason, My Mugen Calibur also has really weak foot joints. If I try to stand him up on his own, he'll fall over every single time. So Roadbuster is giving him some support.

 

Sweet pickup man. Gotta hook be up with a vintage Mugen one day!  

 

picked up a G1 blurr on ebay. pretty much C9.

was alarmed at sharp clicks as you swing the legs down, compared to current toys it really does feel more like a finely honed piece of engineering. love it!

 

Oooh me likey this display   Nice and tidy   Full of G1 goodness   LIKE!!

 

Congrats!
I love this guy too. I can never decide which is my favorite combiner. I love them all. Menasor, Abominus, Computron and Bruticus are probably the front runners.
The stickers on this one look really good. Mine are kinda faded from playing with them so much as a kid  

 

Awesome figures! Too bad I can only afford CM's Mugen Caliber as a stand in (really cheap here in HK).

 

scored this record today

 

Thanks Mate! I just can't resist those Pre-TFs. Sure the money is a killer but when you're weak like me...  

Me hook you up? Look at the stuff you've been acquiring lately - It's about time you hooked me up!  

Have I told you guys how much I love fridays? I'm a Primary School Teacher & this week has been "one of those weeks"... I am so bloody tired...

 

Hello boys!

Sure been awhile since I last set foot here so I hope everyone's fine & well!  

Ok, from the last few DOZENS of pages I can see that the usual boys still hangs around this thread.

*Boy, I feel so suicidal flipping through all these pages!*  

 

This thread tends to have that effect. Seeing pics of amazing stuff that you could only dream about possessing. But can't . . . look . . . away
Too . . .much . . . awesomeness

 

Oh dude ... I couldn't agree more.

It especially sucks for me - a guy just starting to collect G1. I post a pic of Devastator and I'm thinking "OH MY GOD THIS IS FUCKING AWESOME!!!" Then BAM! picture of MIB Diaclone red Sunstreaker  

Bottom line though, this is a G1 Appreciation thread. I feel we all appreciate the reissue Devastator just as much as vintage Diaclones ... although the Diaclones are cooler  

 

Hey all,

While taking more in-depth pics for the sale of my Diaclone Special colour Trainrobo set, a couple of good ones dropped out. Here's a little tribute to the rarely-seen, and even more rarely-transformed, photographed or documented Trainrobo #10. The blue and cream/white/translucent red recolour of he who would become Trainbot "Suiken".






Beautiful dual-tone cream/white window section, a little-known translucent red head, a little tab for launching the locomotive cab, a piece of track...what is not to love here? I'm really beginning to wonder why I would sell these.

All the best
Maz

 

i wouldn't, they are one of the gems of your collection. i hope to be able to get a regular raiden someday, nevermind that recolour

 

That's amazing Maz. You're right: what more is there to want? Just amazing.
