Have you not seen the Headmasters cartoon where he appears? -Ralph Oh wait a minute... The DVD Pinwig sent me. Yes, I... I think there might have been a train in there... kinda hard to tell what was going on generally... Plus I was distracted by the shocking brutality of the Soundwave/Billy fight.... Billy.....

Raiden was called Grimlock in the dub. He is referred to as 'The Robot Train To Cyberton!'

None whatsoever!
I'll offer a couple of clues:
I think Martin could get the initial clue.
Shockwave is one of the TFs you could vote for this week.

Turns out Ive been repeating myself a bit, but I think most of these are ones I haven't done. As I said in Feb first time I did this Today I think my top 5 is the same as Phils 5. Skids 4. Springer 3. Sandstorm 2. Swerve 1. Metroplex Narrowly missing out because its a KO. KO Liokaisers Drill horn is amazing. A lovely green with a chrome drill and easily the highest quality knock off in the set. 5. Fixit (RID) 4. Nosecone 3. Drillhorn 2. Rescue Force Drill Tank 1. Twintwist Week 148: Legends & LegionsYour top 5 toys in the Legends & Legions toy size please. Just to be clear we don't mean * The current Japanese toyline called Legends
* The Generation Legends size that currently sells for about £10 What we do mean is The smallest current size of Transformers that made it's debut with the Legends of Cybertron and is sold to the present day but now under the Legion name Another list that will be different almost every day. 5 G2 Megatron 4. RTS Prowl 3. (Prime) Vehicon 2. Classics Red Alert 1. RTS Megatron 5. Legend 4. Botcon G2 Sgt Hound 3. Alternators 2. G1 1. Universe/Henkei Week 150: MicromastersYour top 5 Micromasters toys please! We did Micromaster bases very early on so we do mean actual Micromaster robots this week! See www.tfu.info/subgroup/micromasters.htm for help! 5. Overload 4. Flak 3. Freewheeler/Deadwheeler - well these two kinda support Phils they should have been 84-86 characters. 2. Rodimus 1. Countdown Week 151: Post Diaclone & Microchange Autobot CarsYour top 5 Autobot Cars that weren't imported from Diaclone (84-5 Autobot cars) or Microchange (84 and most of the 86 Minibots), and also weren't one of their many repaints or remoulds. Trying to avoid later moulds based on the pre transformers ones. 5. High Beam or insert any gobot mould here 4. Cyb Downshift 3. Zap 2. Electro 1. Getaway 5 one of the beast wars mutants 1-4. The fast food ones, they look amazing. No wait Tri Rex is that one or 3? One. Yeah 5. Racheal Tiger 4. Mutant Soundwave - all of them look pretty good in truth, Soundwave just has name recognition. 3. Taco Jake 2. Taco Cassie - Im serious on these two, they have proper human modes and cute animal forms. 1. Tri Rex Midday: 12 hours was quite enough of that pish! Onto the real topic for this week: Week 152: Basic
Your top 5 toys in the basic size class please!
We'll define "basic" as being the carded size class bellow deluxe size. It was called Basic in Beast Wars & Beast Machines, switched between Scouts and Basics for a while during Unicron trilogy and the movies, was called Commanders during Cyberverse and Powercore and is currently Legends in Generations and I don't recall what in RiD2015. Bar some slight variation it's all essentially the same size in comparison to Legions/Legends bellow and Deluxe above.And Phil cheaty cheat one, only because I really like basics 5. Insecticon 4. Quickstrike 3. Ikard and chums 2. BM Buzzsaw 1. Fractyl 5. GDO 4. t30 3. Classics 2. Animated 1. G1 5. Jazz - the only version of the mould I dont own, but I like hte extra whiteness. 4. Artfire 3. Ehobby Kup 2. Ehobby Cyclonus 1. Stepper

Week 178: Transformers with the same name as GI Joe/Action Force toys Honourable mention: Night Viper: Rubbish TF, fabulous Joe (Cobra)5) ViperShould have been a great army builder. If they'd packed enough of them in the US. And sold them here. Packed with references to the Rattler, it's pilot Wild Weasel, the original Cobra trooper and it's Joe (Cobra) namesake. 4) SnowcatHad to be in there as the TF is the Joe Vehicle3) RoadblockNot long ago this would have gone in on the strength of the Joe but I acquired the Ultra Pretender from G this year and LOVE IT! 2) StalkerAn original Joe and an amazing 1992 Euro exclusive. 1) ShockwaveYeah like there can be any other winner here. Here's his SWAT Team GI Joe namesake who's also fab.

Week 179: Leader
Your top 5 Leader size toys please.
The Leader size was introduced in the original RID Line for Optimus Prime & Ultra Magnus, used during Energon & Cybertron before effectively becoming owned by the Movie lines. However recently there's been a fair few Generations leaders.
