Cheetor's arms look really spindly and weird in the initial tests shots.

In these newer ones they look buffer.

It looks pretty fantastic, but I have a sealed G2 Prime and Takara Collection Prime, I don't think I need anymore.

And, correct me if I am wrong, but the colouring of this Prime looks a lot different, the red, grey and blue for instance. They look heightened and more cartoony, is that just me?

I feel like an idiot now, rushing out and collecting the Classics line, these Japanese re-paints are simply fantastic.

There 'ears' on this Movie Prime appear to be taller/pointier, am I imagining things?

What designs did they base Prowl on? Any of the War Within stuff? Coz Prowl looks a little less spindly in the comics...

Maybe I'm just being a little too pessimistic, but did anyone shout 'Abort!' at Hasbro when the designs were handed in?

And all this reissue Sky Lynx stuff happens within months of me scoring my own vintage boxed copy! Ah well, I guess my older brother can get one now if he wants (he couldn't be bothered hunting down one that is in good condition)

Doesn't appear to be a problem in New Zealand. I was in the local Toy World (NZ Toy Shop) and saw that they were selling (for ages 6 and up!) die-cast metal replicas of various hand guns. They weren't cap guns either, nor was there orange tips on the barrels. Cool for plays and cheap short films, an...

Not to rain on anybody's parade, but in the version of the movie over here, Barricade was seen 'moving out' with the other Decepticons towards the end of the film (you know, when the All Spark is located, and they all 'report in'?), however he is myseriously absent from the final fight towards the e...

Man I'm looking forward to this show! Those designs are just so 'out there', completely unlike any Transformer designs I'm familiar with, it's such an interesting change.

I'm not sure if I wanted to collect the repaints in this Movie Line. I'm more inclined to just get the movie figures that actually transform... there's so much damn Movie Merchandise out all over the place, it's impossible to know the limit of the damn line!

What a superb collection! It's like a freaking transformers library. Ditto the dust question by the way, how do you maintain them all? I'm only displaying my Movie Autobots at the moment, and they're already covered in dust!

Whoa, what an amazing way to display your collection! I mean, if I was a Toy Display, I'd want to have sex with that Toy Display, and if it was a guy Toy Display, I might want to buy the Toy Display a few beers and get some Stripper Toy Displays around to celebrate

That's pretty weird, my boss at work is a huge Transformer fan! I work for a debt collecting agency in New Zealand now (as a bit of pocket money while I'm out of work from acting and all that theatre stuff), however, the work team I'm in is called (in all honesty here) - Optimus Fine. Because our jo...

God damn it, what an amazing toy. I've just started getting into Transformer comics recently (mainly the War Within stuff) and just seeing this makes me weep! Here's hoping for some more online ordering action!

So Bay's out of the second film eh?

Of all the Transformers I love, the three that has a special little place in my heart are as follows: Megatron Ultra Magnus (just got a new one!) and Rodimus Prime Megatron - because he is amazingly ridiculous as a robot mode!

He does look pretty mega, I think he'll be an execellent display piece against the Optimus and Megatron. For those who are that way inclined, they should definately consider releasing scaled toys using the leader class as the base (for the larger toys) to set the scale against. I would love to see a...
