GC-19 "Ecshigazar"- We will have to wait and see

GC-20 Back Guild <-Back Pack Upgrade?- He needs one. If Jackshot got one,so should he.
GC-21 First/Fast Gunner <-First Aid Upgrade?- Now I am scared. Repaints? again?so soon? :(

GC-22 Sonic- The Hedgehog? :P

GD-11 Chromia- Nice name. Let's hope there's a nice bot there too.
GD-12 "Rordos"/Roads : Sounds like another BT kit :P

GD-13 Ramble/Rumble: Makes me wonder: will he have anything to do with the upcoming GF Soundwave?

GD-14 Dark/Darkness- SWEET name! Please use a good mold for this one!

GD-15 Arm-??????


TFC-20 Mini Bot Set 2 - Heh. So far for that "Takara stops making G1 Reissues." At least for now.

TFC-21 "Galva/Galba" Galvatron- If it is,it will be my second reissue.

Hellfire Micron "Palgetiyo"- Another Micron...

TFBT-1 Radar Set
TFBT-2 Control Set/Control Tower Set
TFBT-3 Airport Building Set
TFBT-4 Gasoline Station Set
TFBT-5 Garage Set
TFBT-6 Signal/Traffic Lights Set
Sweet idea!Just hope it's big enough and doesn't cost so much.


HBS-02 Master Megatron- Glad to see the HBS won't be a one time thing.

MEGASCF TF14 Jet Fire- Since the original toy isn't licenced by Has/Tak, that will be the smartest thing to do next to a reissue.
Really want the original(basic) Rattrap's gun. Please PM me if you have one you might spare!

Provided it's G1 Jetfire.

Admittedly, a MegaSCF Armadaverse Jetfire doesn't make much sense by now.

Added some more.

Oh, about BR-15... Note that the Beast Wars Returns toys we've seen so far (Obsidian, Strika, Noble Savage, megahead Megatron) only go up as far as BR-14.

M Sipher suspects this to be Optimal Optimus with a Megatron head...

A disturbing discovery regarding the TFBT-1 to TFBT-6 sets:

http://www.skyjammer.com/wiigii/blocktown.jpg

"BT" = "Block Town". Cancelled G2 sets.

The Transformers don't look too bad, if one compensates for the lighting level of the photos. They aren't the most wonderful either. (The Rapido recolor looks okay, but the Terradive recolor looks childish.)

While I have nothing against Lego or its imitators, Lego-like blocks mixed with Transformers looks like mixing a goofy Saturday morning cartoon with a serious live-action adventure movie. It just looks plain weird.

Those look so astonishingly awful that I must have them.

TFC-21 "Galva/Galba" Galvatron?
Galvatron? Nooo... Carb! It's Hosehead!

... yes, okay... I know... but it could be! It could just have been translated by somebody with dodgy kana skillz!

Not that mine aren't dodgy. And I'm not sure there was an "r" kana in the name... I think the romanji just ballsed up the "kaa" sound... I don't have a Masterforce catalogue to check.

But still - it's a nice thought! Okay, maybe not for you, but I think it's funny!

Considering that Liger Jack is an upgrade of Jackshot that serves as an arm extension for Galaxy Convoy, I assume Arm Bullet will be an upgrade of Land Bullet that serves the same function for Master Megatron.

MEGASCF TF14 Jet Fire

Post by cocorubs »

MEGASCF TF14 Jet Fire---

What is this? And does anyone have a picture or link to a picture of this?

Also, is it up for pre-order, or in the future a pre-order?

If it even remotely looks like G1 Jetfire, I am definitely getting this.
What's the use?

Looks like a continuation of the Mega SCF line.

You checked the link I provided, right? Right?

What is Mega SCF? I am a complete idiot. I think it was the cosmic rust that is eroding my smart sensors away, but I did do a search on Mega SCF, and found nothing hardly at all.

I checked your link at the first post, but all it did was bring me to a message board and said the same thing you did. Can you provide me a link to some pics of the MEGA SCF line, and maybe a link to a pic of MEGA SCF Jetfire?

I would be ever so grateful.

I am learning, but it's hard to understand all of the Tranformer histories and lines of them.

SCF = Super Collector Figure (released as Heroes (or Legends? I forget...) of Cybertron in the US.) Megas are just big versions of the same concept. Show-accurate plasticised models, Japanese market.

Big pics amongst Remy's collection:

That's what journalists are calling a "source".

If I didn't post/link a pic of Mega SCF Jetfire yet, you can safely assume that none have surfaced yet. Keep in mind that Hasbro/Takara aren't constantly sending out press releases on every single new toy they plan on producing. That kind of information is being revealed piece by piece. Just watch the news forum regularly, and you won't miss the revelation of pics once they surface.
