Hey, G-lock, you want to go with the "cyber" exterior?? I think somewhere out there there's literally TONS of the "real feel skin" used in the failed Jurassic Park toys, LMK and I will see if we can get ya hooked up...
Maybe we can do a plaster body mould for perfect accuracy as well, I know how much pride you predatory dinosaurs are prone to, after all

Clearly Dell was born after 1987. I like your screen name though. Thats one of the coolest Avengers story arcs of the last few years. Even with the new Bendis run.

I saw pics of the new Alternators. I wish Optimus would've been someone else, like Ironhide or Huffer. Since the 20thA Optimus already fulfills that position, I'm only gonna get Mirage for the forseeable future. Where is our goddamn Bumblebee?? Hello? Mini Cooper. Get on it, Hasbro.

totally.

recent acquisitions include: prowl, sunstreaker, decepticharge, and skids. i think i have all but two of the alternators as of this time.

alt.prime looks cool. sure the 20thA prime is the kickassin'est tFormer of all time, but i'm all for other primes. as long as he's mis-transformed in all the publicity shots i've seen so far. he kinda looks flornish.

Dell - how 'bout you hang on to your Transformers so that Wolverine can jam them WAY up your ass with his claws.

We went to Toy R Us this weekend. Transformers are set-up next to the Star Wars section. They had a bunch of Transformers Titaniums. Those looked kind of pointless. Little robots that don't move?

Right next to them were some mini-transformers for a dollar less than the Titaniums. They actually looked kind of cool. I might have to get Thundercracker and Optimus Prime for my brother. They were the only 2 I really recognized...well except for Soundwave, who seems to be a Stealth Fighter now. My wife said a few of those might be in my Christmas stocking.

Is anyone interested in those new TFs based on the original G1 cartoon designs? I saw the Starscream and thought he would look awesome next to the Alternators, but after i saw more shots of everybody, I grew leery. Especially when i saw the $9.99 price point. What do you guys think?

I'm definitely getting Bumblebee. I'll probably wait to see on the others.

And I finally found Alternator Mirage at Target in Van Nuys. Two story Targets ROCK. Except I have NO furniture in my place at ALL. So I have no place to display him. Darn moving expenses. :cry:
