I have a soft spot for these sorts of cheap transforming robots. You mentioned that you had pics of the letter combiners up on Facebook, where would that be at?
I kind of like concept Rumble. He feels to me very much like a generic Season 1 background Decepticon. Basically, he's this guy:
He doesn't transform so much as he compacts, but that's fine for what he is. Not my favorite figure by any means, but not terrible.
Definitely an interesting set of figures. I'm not sure I'm in for re-dos of the old Combiner Wars gestalts. I skipped CW Menasor because I thought surely there would be a better version of him down the line, so I was happy to be correct on that one, but I'm actually pretty satisfied with my...

Picked up a couple of Big Looker storybooks that I was missing at a vintage toy store today while out of town on business. I just love the art in these things:
Also picked up a couple of Challenge of the Gobots Storybook/Record combos. I'm not sure if it's because they're easier to draw...
Yeah, I think they only ever really put things on clearance when the line itself changes name. They don't seem to recognize the difference between waves, so much.
Oh man, that's some good nostalgia. I ran into Heroes of Cybertron Thundercracker randomly at a Kroger while grocery shopping. I hadn't bought any Transformers or anything since I was a kid, but picked him up on a whim. I had so much fun fiddling with it while watching television that I made...
