Damn, it they re-did Dive Dive from the Gobots in a modern realistic size, that would be great.

 

I've never been a fan of Broadside from Transformers because the size was WAYYYY too small and not as well thought out. I'd love to see a modern re-design.

Went on a quick Toys R Us run earlier today to see what was around. Sometimes they stock things right before SDCC that are supposed to have street dates during SDCC.

 

I must have just missed a Titans Return Transformers shipment as there was a lone Skullcruncher on the shelf.

 

However...

 

Year of the Goat Soundwave was there. This was a $179.99 figure and they were marked down to $49.99. They are currently selling on eBay at around $90. If anyone wanted to check one out, head to your local TRU.

 

Wasn't for me and it is too big to buy a bunch of them to wait around to flip on eBay.

This is kinda cool, but I am with you, not really into it. I prefer a G1 style. Still like to get myself an affordable G1 reissue Soundwave with Ravage, Lazerbeak and Rumble and a Starscream. One day

I know I shared this in the other thread but after going through this one thought some toy enthusiasts may like to see. Picked these up earlier in the week.

While not exactly part of my plastic crack collection... I did buy a wooden train.

This is from the 1950's and one of the wooden toys that Lego was making at the time.

Has anyone picked up the Batman Animated Batmobile, is it worth it? Same with the 1:15 Hotwheels elite/heritage '66 Batmobile and BTTF Delorean? Haven't picked them up yet, but haven't seen them in person to know if they are worth it.

Super noob question:

 

How do you tell the difference between the G1, 2000 and 2004 version of Hot Rod? I can't find any stampings that would give me any idea what I have here.

 

There was a discussion thread on TFW2005 about it here:

G1 has metal feet, I believe.

 

This. Most G1 Transformers are made of metal in places while remakes are entirely plastic. There is a difference between rub labels and non rub as well

Reissues also had metal feet.
