Hi-Res Figure King 196 Scans - 30 Years of Transformers

LOL @ "GLIMROCK"

So that's where MP Bumble's spare tire goes in vehicle mode.

Okawara FTW

Just a little FYI why is tf prime in the movieverse unless it is a new time line placing tf prime right after the events of the movie and soforth

Are you referring to these pages?




If so, those aren't single timelines. There are five "timelines" listed on these two pages:

• WORLD LINE G1: Generation 1
• WORLD LIKE G1: Beast Wars
• WORLD LINE MICRONE: Micron Trilogy
• WORLD LINE EX: (I can't make out the subheading for this one since part of it is cut off)
• WORLD LINE MOVIE: Movie Series

Since the Japanese read pages from right-to-left, the start of each timeline is on the right side of each page, rather than the left.

The Prime Optimus Primes are in the third "World Line", which also contains Animated Optimus, suggesting that this one is not as formal a timeline as the others, grouping together the few oddball series that don't belong in larger timelines for organizational purposes.

Though, as for the three purple texted timelines labeled "GENERATION 1 TIMELINE", "MICRONE TIMELINE", and "MOVIE TIMELINE", these seem to be separate from the other five "World Lines", chronicling the fictional timeline events of the three biggest TF continuities in Japan: G1, the Unicron Trilogy, and the Movies. They appear to be mostly independent from the "World Lines" with the pictures of the leaders.

So, in other words, Prime is not in the movieverse. It's just an unfortunate page setup.

Any idea who the figure is that's a triple changer? It goes from robot, to dragon, to driller? I'm sure it's a beast era figure.

Which one? The purple one on this page?



That's Beast Wars II Galvatron - http://www.seibertron.com/transformers-toys/gallery/beast-wars-2/galvatron/98/1/

Yup that's who I meant. It's weird a second after I hit submit the name Galvatron popped into my head. Spooky.

Thanks for clearing the confusion I couldn't tell wat the page was saying. Maybe someone could find a way to translate the images

Yeah, he's the Predacon Emperor of Destruction whose mouth is permanently incapable of not grimacing like a Ninja Turtle figure.

Now that's what you call a toy spread!

Constipation is a pain

So... what's with the giant screw hole in Grimlock's head on that first image? XD

That's just made me even more hungry for Encore/reissue goodness. Screw Masterpiece I can't afford £100+ for a figure these days, just give me a G1 instead.

Seriously are those stock photo's? there is no way that dude has a G1 Scorponok just sitting on his desk at work right?

Oh Man, that bumblebee on the first page. Man, I can't wait for his zany escapades!

Masterpiece toy detail.

I don't see why he wouldn't. Lots of folks still have their prized G1 possessions. He might even be the guy who designed the figure.

Anyone know where this is from, and if there's a larger scan?

Knowing Randy, he'll probably get a high res scan of whatever magazine it's from in due time.

Huh, Takara counts and acknowledges Animorphs. That's...


Huh. >:oP

Well, they probably did make those figures for Hasbro.

Now that's some great imagery.
