Can you give us an example of [this word that I'm too damn lazy to type and this stupid computer kiosk I'm using doesn't seem to have copy/paste capabilities . . . not even keyboard shortcuts, mac (it's mac-based) or pc]? The definition is a bit vague as to any practical use for this word.

Megatron or Long Haul. Both of them are pretty cool. Or go for two deluxes like Rampage and Sideswipe. Those and Demolisher are my top 5 ROTF figures. Probably in the order of Rampage, Long Haul (tentatively. Haven't had to much time with him yet, but his transformation is quite intuitive and he's p...

No more constructicon toys? :(

Maybe they'll release those two in movie 3? Pleasepleaseplease?

Rampage and Demolisher were my favorites in the ROTF toyline, and Long Haul looks pretty sweet too (haven't found him yet). Mixmaster is ok, but I really only got him to complete the group.

There's no such thing as a Walmart exclusive. They're just figures that Hasbro doesn't really want to release so they pretend to make them Walmart exclusives because everyone knows Walmart won't carry them anyway. :p Well at least this time I don't really care about the figures so I'm not disappoint...

Yup. Shame too. Has the Scourge/Nemesis colors down pretty well, and the purple matrix is pretty cool. Now if only it had a Decepticon insignia instead . . .

I bought one. Always wanted one even though he's a brick. Cool figure if you can look past the fact that he has no real articulation below his waste.

That's too bad. I was hoping they'd develop one since the first version isn't terrible, but isn't great.

The pack is Skids, Arcee and Michaela so you can match her up with the bike if it's a real issue. They did that whole "sexy shot" on a motorcycle afterall.

According to Nevermore's checklist there's supposed to be a HA Ironhide coming down the pipeline.

The RIAA 'damages' seem to simply be a heavy-handed way of warning everyone off... They'd get further by charging him realistically what he'd 'stolen' by both downloading and uploading Definitely. If they were to take them to small claims court and say "You downloaded $300-600* worth of songs....

I, too, love the figure. I just wish I had the 20th anniversary Prime instead of the MP Ultra Magnus version. Aye. Was tempted by the one on BBTS, but $100 is a lot for something that Hasbro stands a high chance of reissuing again down the line. They could so get away with reissuing it as Leader Cl...

So what exactly is different with Mixmaster's "remolded head"? I even sqinted at the screen and couldn't really tell the difference. He's one of those molds you really only need to own one of anyway so I'm good. I told the Fallen that girl was tainted . . . or is it because all that orange...

Ooh! Worth it for the Runamuck and Spark Crusher (Never did get Legends Warpath around here). Mudflap is probably the only one that I'm not particularly interested in, but whatever.

Interesting. I paid about $800 for my laptop, so I don't think I'd pay that much for this. Maybe in a few years when new models are released and this one's price goes down . . .
