LIKE!
I have one version of that toy at the moment: BWII BB & Starscream, which is very nearly the colours of the cancelled G2 repaint. I had the other 3 - G2 Blue, Armada Boxed RiD and Robotmasters - but couldn't justify holding four copies of the same toy.
One of the best toys of the entire Transformers line.

I had an original that my mother snatched out of someones hands in the TRU christmas rush, that was good times.
I do have the Universe one - the camo style one - but that is in storage somewhere. Very excited to get this beautifully blue pair back!

I think I have all four versions (G2 RID complete), though not sure if I still have Starscream. Gigant Bomb is currently my favourite version.
Never realised it was sold here as Stealth Assault.

I believe it was also sold here / in Europe as Ace Evader. I definitely recall seeing boxes labelled as that in Beatties in Winchester

I love the Euro naming around that time.
Is there a full list of all them somewhere? Phil? Phil!

Anyone got the backing cards for the G2 Power Masters?
If so drop me a PM.

Think Andu does for one but he may be busy and on the move.

I probably still do as well. Think I might know where.

If G2 reflects the exuberant garish colours of the mid-nineties in general, what colour would those moulds be if there was a G3 now?

Well, video games went through a 'realistic' phase where everything was brown. So maybe that.
Actually Siege battle damage is kinda like that.

Universe 1 was the shared G2 of the Beast Era (bw, bm, rid)

Is this the 'Megatron' whose body is given to Dreadwind in Dark Cybertron?

I used to own multiples of this mould. Great fun.

Indeed.
I've owned all 4 properly released versions and they are fun. Currently it's just the BWII version as I think those are the best colours.
If they ran it again in grey, with new heads, as Megatron and Starscream I would be forced to buy it again. Ditto a version with the 88 Powermaster heads and colours

And for completeness sake (although Phil reached the point he was aiming for so there was really no point in going any further, but heigh ho) the Thrilling 30 mold was also re-used as The Last Knight Premier Edition Megatron - tfwiki.net/wiki/Megatron_(Movie)/toys#Premier_Edition . This time with a remolded head to kinda match how he looks in that film. |

It's a great mold - Dreadwind and Smokescreen currently on the shelf...

Where are the Minibots on that catalogue? All the other 1993 reissue/recolours are there! NEVER seen this sweepstake catalogue for the G2 re-releases before: Would someone be able to straighten that image out for me? |
