  1. What is wrong with his face? Honestly I would have preferred a more toy accurate head this time if they had to do another MP Smokescreen. His original version was already toon accurate.
  2. I'm looking to getting into 3rd Party collecting. Which party/line matches up best with the Masterpiece line? That's the main line that I'm focusing my collecting on now.
  3. Other than Miracle Metal Works a few years back there hasn't been any official Vehicle Voltrons since the 80s.
  4. Me too. Ironhide is my most anticipated release for the year. To me Binaltech/Alternators Tracks was so like his G-1 counterpart that its almost an unofficial Masterpiece,
  5. I have no faith in WEP anymore. They don't seem to know what they're doing anymore. They just seem to be plodding along. Supposedly it was cancelled because of a lack of a toyline. Chances are rating really weren't all that strong and then when they dumped 3 of the original pilots for the token teenage sidekick is when people really abandoned ship. I think the whole "We cancelled it so we can focus our resources on a movie" was a pure face saving tactic. They have a partnership with Dreamworks classics so we'll have to wait and see what happens next. Personally I think a chance for a Voltron movie to do well is gone. Transformers for better or worse has cornered the giant mecha market and Marvel is cleaning house in the superhero market. Plus a new Power Rangers movie is supposed to come out next year. Voltron will be seen as just a PR rip-off and be dead on arrival.
  6. tracks is looking pretty great! corss fingers mirage is next!!!!!!! The rumors are tracks, Road Rage [Red Female repaint of Tracks] and Ironhide.
  7. Does Mattel still have the license? It just seems to be Toynami anymore. If Matty had made a Vehicle Voltron figure they would probably have to drop the pilots can sit inside the mechs function. It would probably make it way too big. Like I said previously. I have no faith in WEP getting us Vehicle Voltron stuff. No matter how much they claim they want to.
  8. Finally got my Miracle Vehicle Voltrons.
  9. I expected a Diaclone aka Blue Bluestreak when the mold was first announced. After the look of Smokescreen was revealed I half expected a toy accurate version later on. At this rate I wouldn't be surprised if we get that as well.
  10. Outsiders news posts were just copy and pastes from some other wrestling site/s. You might as well just cut out the middle man at that stage.
  11. That's definitely a disappointment. If it was 12 or 13 inches I would have gotten it to go with the Miracle Metal Vehicle Voltron and MP Lion Voltron. Hopefully this might lead to a larger one. I shudder to think what the price would be though. Its a shame that VV and GV fans have to go the third party route to get new merchandise for their favorite Voltron. I get that Lion Voltron is more popular but that is no excuse for practically crapping on part of your fanbase. It's like telling them that they don't matter.
  12. He's meant to be, but Grimlock is actually supposed to be taller than Optimus.
  13. Anybody else see this? I just saw it in my email from Big Bad Toy store. A new Albegas aka Gladiator Voltron set. http://www.bigbadtoystore.com/bbts/product.aspx?product=EVT10031&mode=retail&utm_source=retail_news&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=BigBadToyStore-Retail&utm_content=
  14. I hope not. If someone wants a modern day version of Vehicle Voltron they'll get it. Especially if they're a fan of Vehicle Voltron. WEP has no intentions of doing anything Vehicle Voltron related so screw them. If I have to go the third party route to get a nice modern day Vehicle Voltron so be it. If enough people buy them it might make WEP pull their heads out of their asses and start doing stuff with Vehicle Voltron.
  15. I might order a couple after Christmas. WEP had been promising all year that they would have official Vehicle Voltron stuff available but obviously have no intention of doing so.
