The newest vehicle is the......

CONQUEST X-30!

NICE!

Now we just need the Rattler and I'm set, well and maybe the Tomahawk.

I think the arcee looks ok, but that head mold looks awful. As for optimus or whatever he is the green just rubs me the wrong way .

I don't think he's going to be Green... well at least i hope not. I can't explain why the picture shows him as such in truck mode though.

As for the Arcee... yeah that's actually Alt. Decepiticharge's head. The Mold reuse is understandable, making a completely new Binaltech would more than likely be too cost prohibitive at this point. Why TakaraTomy couldn't shell out for at least a new head however is beyond me.

Well it looks like 2 new Binaltechs have been announced.

Binaltech BT-21 Arcee feat. Honda S2000 Hardtop with die-cast parts

Release Date: 17 July 2008

Price: 5250 Yen

Binaltech BT-22 Convoy feat. Dodge Ram with die-cast parts

Release Date: 17 Jul 2008

Price: 5250 Yen

Didn't really bother to upload the pictures, because there's not much to em. I'll have to wait and see on the Convoy though, because Die Cast Parts like the WF Black Convoy would be a nice addition. Somewhat disappointing otherwise... esp. Arcee...

Thanks mate .... problem is, by the time I read a post on where the figures can be found, I figure they'll be gone by the time I get there to buy 'em.

Yeah, unfortunately that's usually the case. Beyond having your friends and family keep an eye out, i think the TRU packs will slowly start to saturate the shelves more. IIRC TRU usually has a habit of over ordering on their exclusives... let's hope either the trend continues or the demand isn't as high as it is with the standard releases.

Anyone have any luck finding the TRU 5-pack exclusives?? I'm looking for the Cobra Nightwatch set, with no luck.

Or, here's a wild suggestion, they could make a NEW FRICKIN' MOLD. I know, it's radical, but there are more cars out there than the few they used in the Alternators line, and I wouldn't mind seeing some of them as Transformers.

Honestly, how could Hasbro say with a straight face that they didn't want to make all the Classics Seekers because they didn't want that many repaints on the shelves after a line like Alternators?

I'd love to see some new mold BTs/Alts. but i can't be certain Takara and/or Hasbro would be willing to put up the money into making a new one. Best we can hope for right now is that they'll release some repaints/remolds that we actually care about. All in due time... if this is even true that is.

An alternators Trailbreaker would be awesome!!!

Here's hoping. I've been anticipating one since those prototype shots of BT-09 (Swindle) surfaced with an Autobot symbol clearly planted on the hood way back when. Not to mention the dead on accuracy of the head.

There's some news stories up at TFW and Tformers pointing to a possible release of two new Binaltechs.

BT-19 (Streak (BlueStreak), repainted Blue Subaru WRX sans Racing Decals)

BT-20 (Meister (Movie Colors) repainted Silver MazdaSpeed RX-8 (Shockwave Body))

http://tformers.com/transformers-confirmed.../9080/news.html

If true, i hope Takara has a proper Trailbreaker in the works.

Where did you hear that from? There are more coming. I think most of the stuff coming out is being held back for the Joe con, which is earlier this year than last.

Also, the comic listings at TNI are most likely false. If you read the original post, the poster says he heard of the listing through his grandma who works at walmart and knows someone. Right....

G.I. JOE vs. COBRA Comic 2-Packs

(Approximate retail price $9.99; Ages 5 & up; Available: Now, with additional waves throughout the year) One of the most popular comics of the 1980s returns to the toy aisle with brand new stories written by G.I. JOE legend Larry Hama. Each G.I. JOE vs. COBRA comic 2-packs comes with a full-sized comic, along with two 3-3/4-inch figures designed to look just like their comic iterations. Twelve unique packs -- each containing two figures -- will arrive at stores throughout 2008.

Here's hoping for more waves, def. want to see some EELs esp., but i can't say for certain with the kind of information the press release points to.

Torpedo is Wave 6. And yes I heard there is a Eel vs Torpedo although I wish it was Wet-Suit. I have feeling Hasbro is milking molds.

Really as a comic pack or as something else? I thought Hasbro was going to discontinue the comic packs (at least for the time being) after wave 4?

WOW! That's quite a piece of work... he also has way too much time on his hands. I wonder what gave him the inclination to build the Grevious Command Ship?

Uniqueness maybe (ie: not another Death Star and/or Star Destroyer)?

Super easy transaction with QUESTION. Honest, Fast Shipping and Good Communication. Thanks Again.

QFT. I actually just liked the fluff and the designs of them miniatures. The game's rules were just too clunky and time consuming for me.

I knew the game wasn't for me when I went to a local gaming guild and saw this 9 yr old kid bringing 5 suitcases worth of miniatures, which his dad helped carry in. Then he started unloading about 5-6 sets of Eldar hovertanks and probably a whole planetary invasion's worth of an army. 0.o

I've played all of a dozen games over the past 10 years or so that i've been in and out of the hobby and although i've had some fun times in those games, for me it's just too expensive and too time consuming to get a good army together and to be able to paint them worth a damn. I must admit though, that i'm addicted to the fluff too. There are just so many stories to be read about you'll never fully know everything, no matter how much time you have. Really well done in this regard.

On a side note beyond the TT game i'm a huge fan of the Dawn of War PC game. That and it's subsequent expansions are some of the best RTS gaming ever made. Really a class act put together by Relic games. If you haven't tried/played them, you owe it to yourself to DL the demo. You won't be disappointed.

Hyper Hobby is making a variant Shin Getter

http://www.collectiondx.com/node/1783

NO! more variants. Argh.

Why couldn't it be like a pink variant with polka dots... that would be alot easier to pass on.

Do recall that not every Predator is going to stick slavishly to their hunting code. Some of them are insane enough to even break it, as was seen in Batman vs Predator.

Yeah actually if i remember correctly in Predator: Bad Blood there was a rogue Predator who ended up on earth (yeah i know of all places) and was systematically killing ppl. with no provocation.

My gamertag is most likely going to be SenorVandal. Although i've never jumped online with my own Xbox yet so here's hoping it's not taken heh.

I honestly can't believe that thing is selling for so much now. When i worked at TRU back when this came out, we couldn't pay people to take these off the shelves. They ended up going on clearance for something ridiculous and only than did they get bought out. I really wish i'd have bought myself one now... or even a couple for that matter. I loved the movie, but i was really trying to cut down on my toy collecting at the time so this was an easy pass due to it's immense size. Now of course i regret it.

Heh heh---I simply bought a 50ft ethernet cable, and just string it all the way across the living room and into my bedroom, when I need to hook up to Live. A lot cheaper and easier than setting up a wireless connection.

Yeah it might come down to that.

I actually picked up a Belkin USB Wireless Adapter not too long ago when they were on sale at Comp USA for around 60 bucks. I already had my Router hooked up so i figured i plug this in and it'll be a cinch to get on Xbox Live Wirelessly. Well come to find out when i try to plug the adapter in the back of the Xbox it won't fit. The Outer shell of the USB Adapter was too large to make it past the Console Casing. The only way to make it work was either shave down the Adapter Shell or grind out some extra space on the Console Casing. Needless to say that was a return.

I'm in if you're in, David. Anyone else want in this squadron?

I'm all up for it, just gotta get my 360 Wireless... as soon as i can scrape together 100 Clams for the adapter.

Well i guess this one's going to be missing that PG-13 rating by just a smidge.

Other than being set on Earth, this ones alot more similar to the events of the first AvP comic. Aliens and Predators crash land on planet and battle it out amongst each other, humans get in the way, body count rises... hilarity ensues.

Multiplayer Details:

http://kotaku.com/gaming/higher-and-higher...ails-293192.php

"AC6 has four online modes. Battle Royale is a straight up dogfight for up to 16 players, with Team Battle letting those 16 split into two teams to test out their tactics. Siege Battle is a 4 on 4 fight where teams take turns defending land, sea, and air based targets from attack. Finally Co-op battle lets a team of 4 take on AI controlled opponents, perfect for practicing team tactics."

Same question here.

Maybe a plot device by the Joker? Or even the Batman?

Empire.

They're not evil... just misunderstood. The Death Star was actually supposed to be a giant planet rebuilding laser. It would fire a beam at cluster of Asteroids and wham, new planet. The first tests were unsuccessful however. But is that a crime?

I haven't seen a TF movie Deluxe in weeks, probably over a month. I was lucky to find voyager Thundercracker yesterday. I'm still looking for that yellow bastard (aka. Concept Camaro Bumblebee) along with the other Deluxe figures in Wave 2 and 3.

Saw this auction on eBay ..... ewwwwwwww.

I'll be the first to state the obvious fact that Megan Fox is a hottie. But purchasing her used underwear?
