Have you Transformed him yet?

No. I have transformed Blurr though. That was easy. Starscream gave me frothing rage.

Andu had a go at transforming Soundwave. He concurs with me that Blurr is very much of an Aquaspeeder vibe.

For £6 it is a fine robot toy and I like how it is a 'greatest hits' Soundwave. It has no need to transform.

I picked up £6 RID CF Warrior Starscream in the Mr Tesco sale despite already having the Legion one. I was in pain and needed some cheer. Quite a decent robot: transforming to plane is a pain in the arse though. Perfectly fine for £6. Probably my last TF for quite some time though so I shall enjoy it for what it is.

It's a really nice Starscream, is what it is. I really like it.

What is it about Stormshot that reads Leader-1? I mean, nothing about him looks like Leader-1, yet the first thing that popped into my mind is "He needs to be repainted into Leader-1." And it seems this is a fairly wide general consensus.

Phil brought a car Warrior that turned into a lobster at BIG. I hope it gets a UK release!

Should have been out here last October. It's wave was skipped because SOMEONE jinxed things by saying RID hadn't skipped a wave.

Tis arse when you look at the waves for that. The Ratchet/Scatterspike/Bisk one is probably the best wave of all nine.
Apart from not having the 'Hoof in of course.

Post by Philip Ayres on May 2, 2017 19:41:41 GMT
Scatterspike is nothing but a different coloured Quillfire repaint.
Ratchet's vehicle mode Wang's Chung big time, just so plain, needs more paint and details, but the robot is great.
Bisk, as you all know from Saturday, is AMAZING! Mad transformer!

Post by Pinwig on May 2, 2017 19:44:33 GMT
Ah, but Scatterspike is Quillfire in better colours, and Quillfire's wave wasn't so good because it had a Drift repaint in it. I'm looking at the complete package here. Even a naff Ratchet wins over a blue Drift.

Scatterspike is also a girl.

I find most of these guys pretty easy. Can snag them for people who want them.
They average around $15 (£12) at walmart and target. Though grocery store Kroger recently had them on sale for $8, and might still.

A very good question. Bludgeon, Drift and Thermidor are AWOL. I wouldn't be surprised to see an order go up rather shortly for them though.....

Hmmm. Do I learn from past mistakes and get Jo to pick a Bludgeon up for me? After I told her not to worry, I'll get Ratchet over here and it'll probably be cheaper, too...
