Metal_Massacre_79

These weren't included on the first wave of G1 figures, and while it was a neat gimmick back in those days it just seems kinda lame today. Thanks for the tip, I had no idea a sticker could be taken off (note extreme sarchasm).

I wonder why they decided to use that damn heat/rub sticker. I think we all know who's playing for what team.

Maybe if you cut his balls off it won't mess up the sturdiness of his jet mode. The entire classics line looks great, other than Dildotrain, and Megaytron. At least we have a good version of BB now.

If they are still there, I'll take a Mirage. Just let me know what I owe you for it (don't ebay-rape me though).

They are the same thing, everyone knows this!

STOP QUOTING PICTURES! There is NO need for it.

Alright, how many frickin' times do you need to quote a PICTURE?

Maybe they figure it's the only way they're going to sell the Convoy design in Japan...

I found him at the Target in Racine, WI a few days ago. I didn't even bother to ask the wife, I just put him in the cart and walked away. Only missing Mirage now, but I doubt I'll find him on my own.

Try and work the perfect transformation process into the 1/60 line, and release the VF-1's again so we can all have kick ass transformation in the same scale. This should also make collecting them easier on the wallets. And for those of you who say "I'm not buying those again", you KNOW you will.

I'm not really all that impressed with the Titanium Soundwave. Looking at both forms (and I realize that he may be/is mistransformed as a robot) it just seems like a low rate crappy toy. Too blocky and non-symetrical in more areas than I'd like to count. I guess before I jump to any conclusions I'll wait for a review from someone who doens't have their head up their ass while transforming him.

What, no love for Zelda II? I STILL play that one.

1/18 VF with a mod kit (remember what some did to Hasegawa kits?) to make it transform? Now THAT would be a seller.

We need to publish a cookbook for Yamato collectors. Something to enhance the taste of ramen while keeping the costs down. Guaranteed bestseller if this is the first publication of a MW book. 421413[/snapback] Tabasco is your friend. Worked on all the MRE's I had in the Army!

The pic I posted was from the 1/60 toy review right here on MacrossWorld. It's not mine so I take no credit for it.

I don't think the swing arm would need alterations. The seat for the co-pilot is just futher back and the chest part is reduced accordingly. The cockpit isn't any longer than the one seaters (at least it doesn't appear to be longer).

Looking at the 1/60 side by side of the 1D and the 1S, the heatshield won't be much of an issue since there is more room behind the canopy to hide a longer shield. The 1D doesn't have that cut in the top middle part of the chest and the chest would cover most of the canopy as it is so the shield wouldn't have to be much longer at all than the existing molds. With this, most of the existing molds can be used an only a few would need retooling.

Tracks is another decent one, but a little hard to transform (takes some getting used to). Sunstreaker is basically the same as Sideswipe and Dead End, so if you have one (or both) of those you'll know what to expect. Some have complained that the plastic on Sunstreaker is too transparent and will show the black parts that are under the shell. I don't think it's THAT noticable unless you're looking for it. EDIT: I took the flame decal that came with Swerve and put it on Tracks. Looks much better on him.

I like the Alt Hound. Not a bad design, good posability, shoulders are a problem in that they aren't well articulated. Good one to pick up.

Ya think her boobs are big enough, EXO? LOL!

I will NOT miss out on this one!

Basically, when you finally figure out how to read the instructions (it's not clear in a LOT of areas), and have the satisfaction of completing it, it will basically fall apart as you transform it unless you super glue the parts together.

Well, he got the shoulders, head, wings and boobs for SS right. What else do you need to make it look like SS? There really wasn't anything spectacular about the legs in the cartoon or the G1 version.

I didn't want to imply that the silver feet were the wrong color, it's just that it looks a little odd. That's all. Compared to the dull colors on the rest of him, the feet stand out (no pun intended) as much as Dorothy's ruby reds.

The fact that Shoji designed this and the Hybrid Prime had no impact on my decision to buy one. I wanted the Hybrid Prime simply because it looked really cool as a robot. I am quite disapointed that the vehicle mode is lacking a lot in the way of accuracy, but I just wanted the robot. As for SS, I don't see anything wrong with the design at all. The colors work well with each other, and the design is pretty solid. In fact, the only gripe I have of SS is the feet. Shiny silver feet (if that's what color they are) just don't look right with the dullness of the other colors.
