Black Valkyrie Posted February 7, 2006 Share Posted February 7, 2006 Someone told me that where rumors about a toy line for it but I guess it wasn`t true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Hingtgen Posted February 8, 2006 Share Posted February 8, 2006 The WW2 designs are from the "super dark and gritty" one. On which some pages you had no idea what was going on. "Blackness--and a red dot!" The other comic series had TF's that turned into GI Joe/Cobra vehicles and was set in modern times. (TF vs GI Joe and GI Joe vs TF's---I can never remember which is which) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
myk Posted February 10, 2006 Share Posted February 10, 2006 (edited) In regards to that real-life transformer that I'm sure most of you have seen, I wonder if that'll become available to the public? Edited February 10, 2006 by myk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doctor Reggae Posted February 12, 2006 Share Posted February 12, 2006 Might want to check out TFW 2005's front page...they've got some pix up from the Toy Fair in New York.

promethuem5 Posted February 12, 2006 Share Posted February 12, 2006 That Unicron is just.....odd... and boy oh boy does Mirage have a gorgeous car mode. Bot mode seems iffy at this point... the hips and knees look questionable, and the shoulders seem off... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doctor Reggae Posted February 12, 2006 Share Posted February 12, 2006 Unicron does look kind of odd, I'll admit. After years of thinking of him as a planet, it'll take some getting used to. Mirage, on the other hand, looks amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GreenGuy42 Posted February 12, 2006 Share Posted February 12, 2006 I'm iffy on Mirage's bot mode... those big chrome tires are REALLY distacting, but hey, I hated prowl when he came out, and I like him well enough now..

Doctor Reggae Posted February 12, 2006 Share Posted February 12, 2006 From what I've read/heard, the Titanium line is going to be split into two figure sizes--the 3-inch non-transformables, and the 6-inch transformables; War Within Prime is a six-incher, I think.

promethuem5 Posted February 12, 2006 Share Posted February 12, 2006 I had an Action Master Bumblebee when I was a little kid, and it was my favorite Transformers toy of all time.

RichterX Posted February 14, 2006 Share Posted February 14, 2006 Saw at my local Target that they are re-releasing some of the Beastwars Figures, they had Rhinox, Waspinator and Cheetor, each had a piece to put together a Transmutate figure. It seems they are being released due to the 10th anniversary of Beastwars Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Metal_Massacre_79 Posted February 14, 2006 Share Posted February 14, 2006 Seen all those Beastwars ones too, but I was too busy getting the latest two repaints (i.e. Rollbar and Ricochet). They're only $20 each so I'm not too upset about having three or more of the same model, but I'm looking forward to Mirage. I wonder who they will make as a repaint of him... I guess some rumors are going around that Megatron might be made from a Cadillac car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

baronv Posted February 14, 2006 Share Posted February 14, 2006 Damn nice that they are making a War Within Prime, does anyone know what outlets will be selling these? I've just gone collecting the 3 volumes of the War Within trade paperbacks and the Prime look is pretty nice and now with this toy I don't have to shell out the big bucks for the WW Prime statue that was made last year.

promethuem5 Posted February 14, 2006 Share Posted February 14, 2006 (edited) Baronv, three volumes of TPBs? I've got the first two books and the first couple of issues of the third volume, but Dreamweave never finished the third... did someone else finish that wonky story and I miss it?

Lets see I have WW volume 1 full sized WW volume 1 pocket sized and WW2 Darkages Full sized. Then I have the issues 1-3 of the WW Age of Wrath book that wasnt finished*cough Pat Lee bastard*cough* So that could count as 3....I heard IDW may be able to print the TPB f Age of Wrath since the art was all done.

Smiley424 Posted February 15, 2006 Share Posted February 15, 2006 since we are on the old DW Transformer comics, anyone reading the new series from IDW? I like the art and the story is intriging to me so far. Starscream is scheming as usual. I'm waiting for Optimus Prime and Megatron to make their respective appearances.

Doctor Reggae Posted February 15, 2006 Share Posted February 15, 2006 The new comic is pretty good. It's very different in style and presentation from the Dreamwave stuff, but I'm enjoying it. EJ Su's art, while not the flashiest (Don Figueroa is my favorite TF artist), tells the story well, and Simon Furman's pacing and characterizations are solid so far.

Shin Densetsu Kai 7.0 Posted February 16, 2006 Share Posted February 16, 2006 (edited) I like Su's interiors better than his covers and his one shot drawings. I also think IDW will handle the license fairly well. I am glad they got Don on board for beast wars, the man must be in cloud 9 right now, I mean he's got a diecast TRANSFORMABLE version of his war within prime coming out, and he's helming beast wars. oh and btw boys.....the WWI transformable Prime@toyfair is 16.99 ...apparently theres going to be ultra sized transformers for 19.99....so can you believe this, theres going to be BIGGER diecast transformers!!!! Any guesses? I say Ultra Magnus or Galvatron. Edited February 16, 2006 by Shin Densetsu Kai 7.0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
