I saw the case for Road Hauler at our local Walmart on a pallet out for stocking on Monday night, and I tried to play nice and left it alone. Went in the next morning, found Override instead. Thursday, I went in on my lunch break, they had pallets out again, found the deluxe case. Got Cosmos and...

You know what would be an awesome crossover? The Guyver and McGuyver. An ultra-violent hero in alien armor that destroys the Zoanoids with explosives made from household objects.

tec: do not take internally...

From BBTS' product description for the UTA-ZO figure: "UTA-ZO brings Unitrobos to life by combining everyday objects through its transformation song! Press the A button on its headphones to make it sing the song for the separately sold Unitrobo Applelobster. The B button plays the character’s...

I would absolutely buy Energon Towline, Ironhide, and Ratchet in a unified, Towline-based design. If there were other decos, I'd buy them, too. Heck, just reissue the crap out of the Energon Towline mold ala the Vintage Beast Wars line.

Yeah, those were the best! 😉

I liked when combiners used Power Suits...

I wonder if Legacy Knockout could be lightly retooled and redecoed into Quickshadow?

The earlier episodes are mostly Jet and Drill and the Stol family, with guest appearances from various Machine Robos. Later in the series, the other Robos figure more prominently in the stories. But, yeah, the villains are largely underrepresented in the toy line. I think some people, myself...

YMMV, but mine is hanging new product in a different section of the action figure aisle than the established TF section. Both Speedia and Studio series core. If they're setting things ahead of a mod change, it might indicate TFs are moving, or someone is just putting new stuff out on open empty...

Actually, what I found today was Override. No sign of Road Hauler, though the box I saw last night was clearly marked with his name and assortment number. The mod isn't set at all, so I just have to keep going back at random times and searching. Kinda feels like shopping KayBee toys back in the...

I was at our local Walmart tonight, and found a case of what seemed to be just Road Hauler on the stock pallets they drop in the main aisles at night. Couldn't find a worker to open it or verify it was in the system. I'll go back in the morning and see if it got put out. Road Hauler is one I...

During the season finale battle with Godspeed (the last season I've seen), all I could hear was Dark Helmet "...and I see your Schwartz is almost as big as mine..."

I have RtS Lugnut, and as a representation of a beloved character from Animated in a more G1 style, I think he does well. I say that to say, yes, I would love more Animated figures in their original style, but I'm also not against Legacy versions of some of these, either. (Incidentally, RtS...

I remember watching Shining Time Station on PBS as a kid, and I remember really loving the model work. When my son got into Thomas a couple years ago, we started picking up dvds at thrift stores, and I've found I actually appreciate the models and stories more now.

Yeah, we were at the John Deere Pavilion in Moline IL this weekend, and half the toys in the gift store were branded Tomy instead of Ertl. Why they don't have a line of Transfarmers yet is beyond me...

Yeah, Machine Robo Revenge of Cronos came out on Blu-Ray earlier this year. Discotek released it as an SD on BD, so it's not remastered or anything. It's a 2-disc set, but all the episodes of the series are on the first disc, the 2nd disc is for some OVAs focused on Leina Stol. They look good...

Nice! I am excited to see this!

So, I know we have some Thomas the Tank Engine fans here, so I thought it might be good to have a dedicated thread for stuff like this. The Family Museum in Bettendorf, Iowa had a traveling Thomas exhibit, and since my son, Haywire 3, just turned 4, we thought we would make the trip so he could...

Add Animated Wreck-Gar to that list. It's my favorite take on the character, and we don't get enough garbage truck transformers as it is.
