That Starscream us way too expensive. Lol

 Here is my modified Skywarp, almost done with it, wanted him to better match Thundercracker

damn that looks good in color too. From what I've read they are really well built and solid, there was a review of shockwave on a blog and the thing looked really impressive and well thought out. Hard to justify the price point though, for me at least.

I've bought these from the latest series.


And a smaller Grimlock from the animated series.

Believe it or not, only one of the shows was animated.  The rest were all done with really nice looking sock puppets! :D

I kid.  The series that came before the current one(which is Transformers: Prime), was called Transformers Animated.  It was originally called Transformers: Heroes.  I'm not sure which name I like better.  Both are fairly generic.

There's actually another Grimlock coming, this one is part of the Generations line(which encompasses G1, the video games, Beast Wars, etc., most of them are G1)

The original Hasbro Grimlock was better.  Those Dinobots kicked ass back then and even today.

The masterpiece is the best one, takes the original G1 and improves on it

This one is based on a mix of the G1 & Animated versions.

The MP one is deffinitely my favorite thus far.  Though, who knows when this one is in my hands, I may change my mind.

Since we are talking about Masterpiece Transformers, here is a shot of Thundercracker next to my modified Masterpiece Skywarp. You have to see the original Skywarp to appreciate the mod. He fits better with T-Cracker now.

The show was fun and it had a cool story arc, too bad the overall story had to be rushed since it got cancelled earlier than expected, the JP opening is pretty bad ass


the Fall of Cybertron Grims looks very cool!

So far I am enjoying Transformers Prime, the second season is getting to be really fun.

JAM project is awesome.

Can't say I care much for the visuals of that intro though.

Wow, I'd never seen the Jp intro before, I really like it, though I still prefer the US song.  It's one of my favorite TF opening songs ever, up there with G1 Season 3.
