If he is I shall deploy Turnbull,
For on this issue I have been known to mull.
But Primus needs a chum,
Eeee by by gum.

Toy-Fu is not in the States yet,
Unicron thus not within his net.
The Chaos Bringer must come,
When he flies he makes a noise like 'whuuuum whuuuum'.

He is small but rather well formed. I rather like the look of that - a good job on the humanoid mode and a pretty good tank mode. Definitely one to keep an eye out for I think. Can't see some of the stuff in the thread as it won't let me open attachments, but looking at the other images on 2005's main page I'm not that fond of the shields, I just think they look the wrong sort of daft (although they might just work on the Botcon G2 toys you know....). The swords don't look too bad at all though, and I can see a few toys that might benefit from one (now if they would just do an axe then I would be able to arm Classics Sunstreaker for a State Games bout. They do look slightly oddly balanced, but then they are no weirder than a Kopesh, and also probably made of laser anyway. Karl |

They have an awesome early 90s tat feel to them. I just wish Renderform stuff was more accessable. It is limited run with a 'its out when its out' release schedule and the guy who makes it seems to resent that people want the product he is making.

The new Chronicle EZ Collection V2 Images takes out a couple more G1 Characters that haven't had a Legends figure made (and a G2 one! And cures the distribution problems with Rodimus) Which Transformer that hasn't had a Legend made would you like to see done? |

The title says it all. When the next wave of Generations is released are we in the UK getting it at all or do we have to get it online?

Going on past experience, Hasbro will deny it is coming out, we will all eventually crack and buy them online,and then they will be released in stores at bargain basement prices. That is if DOTM wave 1 ever shifts! |

Mechtech Bumblebee sells real good in Swindon. Wave 2 Voyagers on the other hand.....
I automatically pre order *every* Classics/Universe/Generations etc release. Just on the off chance. And it usually pays off as a classics themed line is the first to be cut by Hasbro UK.

When is the next wave due elsewhere and what does it contain? I'm concentrating on Prime figures for the time being, having just purchased the 4 figs I've been after for the last 10 months or so (HFTD Tomahawk and Terradive, Generations Warpath and Scourge) all picked up in the last 2 weeks  |

Reveal the Shield has come and passed and i've still never seen Rumble released in any stores - and i've seen the rest of the ENTIRE range.
What gave?

Post by Bogatan on Oct 12, 2011 6:32:35 GMT
It never made it out anywhere, which is probably for the best as it means we'll probably get it in the future from Hasbro in larger numbers than we would have if it dribbled out at the end of RTS.

I'll lay money you never saw Bodyblock & Downshift (scroll 3/4 of the down) either ;-) The mould exists in two colours in a 2 pack in the Japanese line: search ebay for United Rumble Frenzy. You should be able to get one for about £50 which is a lot less than they were going for. |

Post by mabus1984 on Oct 13, 2011 22:06:43 GMT
Okay then i haven't seen the entire RtS range other than Rumble lol
Oh i know about the Japanese ones, but a tad dear for figures so small. Hasbro always do repaints of molds so we should get a Frenzy at some stage if they ever release Rumble over here.

I'd say there's every chance of Rumble and Frenzy coming out here. Stick em each in a dlx blister with a Legend

Post by Philip Ayres on Oct 14, 2011 12:19:26 GMT
Rumble with Legends Thundercracker
Frenzy with Legends Skywarp.
Oh yeah, that'd go down well.

The moulds will almost certainly turn up at some point due to the cost in making them in the first place. I wouldn't be surprised if it turns up as store exclusive.
Imagine if they turned up as Botcon toys. The rages over the Thundercracker and co Botcon jets back in the day would pale in comparison!
