The Legends versions?

Post by Benn on Aug 17, 2020 10:34:33 GMT
Windblade was actually seen once in The Entertainer here, but I didn't get it because the Legends version looked so much better and I'd already jumped on Legends Rodimus. I thought it's be pretty easy to get ahold of... more fool me.
The only time I've seen Legends Windblade was at TFN a couple years back when Bogatan (I think) had bought one.
Most of the bigger guys I've not seen in the wild. Optimus, Soundwave and Astrotrain, I think, but never at sale prices. I picked up Soundwave through the Bumblebee Movie Argos sale, and Astrotrain just now on Kapow. My eyes are peeled, to the extent I have a spreadsheet detailing all the TR toys, what I own, which line I own them through and what's missing! I never do this!

Oops. You meant the jets. I'd take either version at this point if they didn't cost a small fortune.

Okay, I'm missing:
KINDA ESSENTIAL
Stipes Ravage Laserbeak Rumble Windblade Sentinal Prime Alpha Trion Octone
NOT HAPPENING
Greatshot Convobat Siege On Cybertron Leo Prime
FOR COMPLETIONS SAKE ONLY
Megatron Optimus Prime Powermaster Optimus Prime Blaster Trypticon
I think that sums it up.

I do regret not ordering Convobat at the time.
What sort of money does Twin Twist go for now? Got mine for £25 a year or so ago and felt pained paying that then!

Double that. £25 was cheap then.
I regretted not getting Convobat until I had a shot of one. Feels cheap rubbery.

So does Mindwipe, to be fair. I think it's a safety issue with both sets of wings.

Ah, didn't find Mindwipe!

Astrotrain is amazing. The Battle Train is so awful I have to love it. I do like how simple he is to transform, makes swishing him about into all his different modes on the fly such fun!
The Titans collection slowly grows.

I've just discovered there's a Legends Leo Prime, so I need to add that to the 'NEVER HAPPENING' list...

I love the LG Series figures. If I didn't already have TR, Seige and ER Astrotrain I'd probably get it. Which other TR figures do you need?

Rather unusually, my TR and adjacent collection is over in the Kapow thread. I suspect it won't be long before Phil gets the scissors out.

I had a quick look, Sadly I don't have any of those. I picked up a TR blaster for £20 a few weeks ago from Facebook marketplace. I have a few of the titan masters spare and an extra Misfire. I'll keep a watch for any of the ones that you need.

Oh, cheers. I've got all the 'easy' ones, I think.

The Cassettes from TR tend to be easy enough to find, I held out for the LG versions. Transparent Sentinel prime and Fort max coloured Windblade can be found in the TR Titan Force set which either Kapow or ID had for around £90 recently. I got mine with an on sale Stripes from TF Robots www.tf-robots.nl/ No import fees which is nice. Alpha Trion I got for bargain on eBay as it was mis-listed as Alpha Tron

The Titan Force Windblade isn't a headmaster, alas! I'll certainly check the others out though, thanks!

Yeah, my quick look puts Leo Prime at around a hundred.

Just under what Andy Turnbull paid for his Cloud Rodimus. And the purple "Archforce" Megatron??

I’ve not looked at the Megatron, with all of those being on my completionist only list. I imagine not cheap though!

It may drop once G2 Green Megatron is officially announced, as that's the deco everyone wants, despite the superiority of the TR mold.
