Got the email from Pulse that Motormaster will be shipping soon. Looking forward to getting him but my wallet weeps.

Same. Though by "all of the Deluxes", I am referring only to Road Rocket, as that was the only one I wanted.

They're fairly straightforward to put together, IMO. I have not felt the need to paint anything on mine yet. The only tools that I use are a good pair of nippers, some model-grade sandpaper, and a needle metal filing kit. The latter is not absolutely vital, but it does make cleaning uneven...

I have found that I really enjoy putting together these Flame Toys model kits. I don't have 'em all, I've just cherry picked here and there. Definitely interested in Starscream, Shockwave, Jazz, and Arcee.

Both look nice, but that Blaster is gorgeous!

Thanks alot, everyone. I was perfectly fine skipping the recent Legacy Wreck 'N Rule Springer, but these recent pics won me over. *Sigh*, he'll be delivered today...

One of the main things that I liked about Beast Machines at the time, and still like now, is that it re-introduced vehicle-based Transformers. I love Beast Wars but by '99, I was good and ready to see some sleek, futuristic vehicals again, and the series (and toyline) delivered that. Beast...

Yep, they kinda do. I'm planning on having lots of fun using this with The Ark and probably TR Fort Max.

I traveled back in time and told my former self about Retrax being sold out in 2022. He thought it was hilarious!

I told myself that I wasn't going to spring for any more big Diaclone stuff, but DA-91 is just too cool to pass up: https://www.bigbadtoystore.com/Product/VariationDetails/195448 I'm still holding off on buying the bigger 'bots, but bases / playsets are hard for me to resist. I am going to...

It looks good in an Iron Man-y way, but it also looks like the transformation may be...complicated. I'll reserve judgement until better/final images materialize and will definitely be interested to see how this turns out.

I picked up both releases and mixed/matched for my Computron. I feel like the Computron / Superion torso is one of the best that CW/UW had to offer. Both combiners still look pretty darn good, IMO. That said, I would still be interested if they ever decided to redo the Technobots, because...

I like what we've seen so far, for the most part. Dead End is a must-buy for me, as is the "A Hero Is Born" 2-pack. I will most likely pick up Pointblank and Inferno as well but will pass on Voyager Starscream. Skullgrin, while cool, was never a character or toy that I had much of a...

That really does look pretty nice!

Thanks for the links! Was able to preorder Road Rocket, which is all I really wanted.

I will definitely pick up Terrorsaur. I bought him at Botcon '99 and he was missing his gun; it's always bothered me.

Yes, I bought Megahouse's release of Galvion's Circus 1 (https://www.hlj.com/variable-action-hi-spec-galvion-circus-1-meg81633). It looks really nice and is well-painted, but it doesn't feel up to the task of repeated transformations in the way that Transformers do. I haven't transformed him...

Morgan, is that Masterpiece Loco behind Crasher? ;)

I like what they did with the Cliffjumper/Bumblebee-as-Deluxe releases, and I would welcome more along those lines. Both are still appropriately small compared with other Deluxes, but they're packed with enough engineering and accessories as to be worth the price of admission. But yeah, for...

Honestly, I have no idea what happened with this thing. It's like the team committed to making a Wheelie toy and then just thought "well, I guess this is good enough. Let's see if we can pass this off." I still want to see finalized, in-hand pics, but the whole thing is very weird and insulting.
