I love all these beautiful garish G2 color schemes.
I'm holding out very limited hope for either an orange or yellow devastator.

Well, let's see here, today is Monday so....
But the "garish" colors do work for some of these guys.

Nope, That color scheme is boss on Dragstrip.
Just had a thought, a Combiner made up of Cyclonus and 4 G2 Dragstrips should look pretty cool.

Well... if it's anything like the stuff in the '16 platinum thread, you'd be flyin' high all day and night
But, yeah, I exaggerate, but all of them have actually looked really nice, hasbro did us proud on these

Already mass released in Canada http://www.walmart.ca/en/ip/transformer ... 0195422577
Shouldnt be too long before the states get him too.

Me too. It would bring a sense of completeness and closure to the G2 combiners that we never got back in the 90's. Even though of all the color schemes, G2 Defensor had the fugliest of them all, but you can bet I would still purchase it

Sabrblade wrote:How well does G2 Blackjack fit onto the pegs of G2 Menasor?
Same problem. I drilled the holes a little bigger on Blackjack and used an exacto knife to trim the pegs on Menasor's chest. I got it right on G2 Menasor but screwed it up on the regular Menasor so I had to buy another Blackjack (which was on sale at Amazon for $6.50 or something like that).

Prior to this set, Takara hadn't released the regular red and blue version of the Optimus toy yet, so it's only logical for their first release of Optimus to be in his normal colors.Transformers fan wrote:Maybe, that Takara Tomy did not want to sell the White Optimus Prime in the Convoy Grand Prime giftset, was that it would be confused with Ultra Magnus.

Buzzsaw is the only new mold here, and will be compatible with the upcoming Titans Return line Soundwave and Blaster Leader figures, as Chop Shop and Pipes reuse previously seen figures: respectively, the Generations Chop Shop and Optimus Prime Legends. Check out the new versions below, and click on any image to view the full gallery!

OMG, when did this become a thing? And why haven't I heard of it until now.
Brilliant, just brilliant
That red faced Pipa Smurf has also been added to the get list once they hit retail in my area. Or maybe I should just take advantage of that sweet discount code at HTS
PS: the links for Pipes and Buzz Saw are linking reversed. I looked at the URL's in the post and they appear to be correct. Must be something on the back end.

Could even dual-wield Chop Shops
These little insecticons have been amazing, so much so I'll happily buy the repaints. (but naturally I'd like a Kickback eventually)
Buzzsaw looks kinda bad...

The big Groove toy is advertised on the packaging as a component of Sky Reign, so there's no overlap in the advertisements with the little Groove being a component of Defensor.fenrir72 wrote:I wonder what the explanation is for the mini Grove chest part? Who is he then?

Mini-Me after Austin Powers kicked him out. Don't worry he's still...
Groovy Baby!

Check out below a sample of what you'll find in the galleries for the six members of the Camien team, from leader (but Voyager, reusing the Hot Spot mold) Pyra Magna, to tiny Groove repaint Rust Dust, via definitely not Nightbird Dustup and Jumpstream, and of course, the Alpha Bravo helitwins Skyburst and Stormclash, finishing each other's sandwiches. Click on any of the images to view the full works, including the combined form herself - Victorion!
As a bonus, a full gallery of Combiner Wars Legends Class Wreck-Gar, everyone's favorite Junkion leader, has also been added to our extensive galleries here on Seibertron.com. This time around, Wreck-Gar is a recolor of Legends Class Protectobot Groove but features a new head sculpt complete with Wreck-Gar's traditional facial "hair". Enjoy!

Fixed by having to cut the little triangles off, but it doesn't seem to have affected the toy otherwise.

But in all seriousness, I lost all tolerance for that movie after having to see it 4 times in 2 months, along with listening to the soundtrack over and over again in my mom's car. And I didn't even like it that well in the first place.

It might seem cuter when you have two daughters who are adorable that love it. Soundtrack got a bit old after the upteenth time of seeing it, but that wasn't until after about 6 to 10 months or so.

While I don't have any daughters (too young for that), I do have two cousins who are adorable that love it (at the time they saw it, at least. I don't know how much they like it now).Seibertron wrote:It might seem cuter when you have two daughters who are adorable that love it.

Also, I tend to have less patience than most people that I know, so that might play a part.

I literally got sick of it, as in actually having to leave the entire floor because it was making me nauseous.

but apparently there is a frozen theme going on so...I guess for the first time in forever I'll make a Disney reference.
I hope my Victorion doesn't have any messed up parts. I don't want it to be a bit of a fixer-upper.
