  1. HI, LOOKS LIKE I WASN'T TOO FAR FROM THE HASBRO'S MARVEL LEGENDS ANNOUNCEMENT FROM SDCC2010 BACK THEN AFTER ALL; WELL WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT IT. WHY DON'T YOU VOTE AGAIN AND DECIDE THE BEST FUTURE FOR OUR BELOVED FIGURES.
  2. You know, we always think about the figures, but what about letting them know that some accesories would be pretty cool ideas also. I have thought about (like in the MOTUC) some "weapons" packs, or in any other case an "accessory" packs, like GREEN LANTERN or SINESTRO constructs (have been thought a lot before) or new light-up LED power batteries, maybe some BATMAN's Bat-gear, Superman's Laser vision or a "super blow", The FLASH's light speed lightning, more GREEN ARROW trick arrows, HAWKMAN's medieval gear like the chain mace or the crossbow, RED TORNADO's fist cyclones and a super torso tornado, METAMORPHO's chemical consructs, FIRESTORM's nuclear blasts, DOCTOR FATE's magic spells, generic flight stands or energy blasts, et al.... how about those, which ones are yours? How about some vehicles? The BATMOBILE anyone?
  3. SDCC 2010 is already over and mattel showed us wave 16 of DCUC and the GLC wave 1 for 2011, now which characters would you like Mattel to know that you desperately want in the folloiwng-up waves? THINKING ABOUT A COMPLETE SUPER POWERS LINE-UP, Mine are: SAMURAI BLACK VULCAN EL DORADO APACHE CHIEF (REGULAR SIZED) MISTER FREEZE (SUPERPOWERS) ATOMIC KNIGHT SILVER AGE METALLO SILVER AGE SUPERGIRL SILVER AGE MANHUNTER (PAUL KIRK) SILVER AGE BIZARRO SILVER AGE CATWOMAN REVERSE FLASH SILICON (UNPRODUCED SUPERPOWERS) QUADREX (UNPRODUCED SUPERPOWERS) MR. MXYXPTLK BLACK RACER BUILD A FIGURE: APACHE CHIEF EXECUTIONER (UNPRODUCED SUPERPOWERS DARKSEID MINION) SHOCKWAVE (BOOSTER GOLD'S CLASSIC VILLAIN) SWAMP THING ('NUFF SAID!) And some Old of mine, favorites of all time: MANHUNTER (MARK SHAW) MANHUNTER (CHASE LAWLER) STARMAN (WILL PAYTON) STARMAN (PRINCE GAVYN) CLAYFACE II (PRESTON PAYNE) FIRESTORM (MARTIN STEIN) FIREHAWK SILVER AGE ELONGATED MAN DOCTOR POLARIS CHECKMATE KNIGHT (a build-up army figure) Now how about yours?
  4. Yes, Finally THRUST will be available at retail, at a reasonable price point. Now let's hope that DIRGE and THUNDERCRACKER also finally make the cut down the road. I hope that HASBRO continues with the RAINMAKERS also and make available again SKYWARP and RAMJET for those fans that missed them. Now, let's talk about some REALLY COOL NEW G1 based SEEKERS, like with NEW molds (IDW based), ULTRA sized, and with cool EFX. how about it uh?, anyone? please rise your "typing". Maybe for a start....
  5. You're right, the market is FLOODED with crappy Movie toys right now, and the excitement that TF were since the UNICRON trilogy or BEASTWARS are gone by now. And just to add a little fuel to the fire, they release only 5+ new EXCITING molds and Thousands(almost) of repaints. Its sad, really. Not even TakaraTomy are interested in the franchise either. The Animated and Movie figures do not have some sort of gimmick but they are too stylized for my taste. The Transformers Classic line, while great, lacks the assortment of figures that the other lines have. Indeed, those two lines go in opposite sides to the extreme. It's just that i do not like them at all, both lines do have some nice looking figures, but there are a few. and really not worth at all. IMO as a Hardcore TF Collector. I believe that what the brand does really need are a new direction, a BACK-TO-BASICS while they still can, the Masterpieces are great, so why do they only make 1 new figure every 2 years?, Almost all the TFandom LOVES G1 and all the subsequent sagas, even the Unicron Trilogy, so Why did they change so abruptely the direction of the line?. What's the idea? making them to look "REAL LIFE-LIKE"like they intend to with the movies?. May I recall that only a 30% of the Hardcore TFans likes the movies. So what's the deal with "half naked designed" TF? The appeal to kids? with so many overpriced toys out there? and to make it worst THEY ARE GOD Mo...F.... RE-PAINTS of the same toy released a MONTH BEFORE? a season before? PLEASE, FOLKS over at HASBRO make the TF a COOL LOOKING INTERESTING LINE AGAIN!!!!! IMO, The work that the folks over at IDW comics are doing with the new Comicbooks are really worth noticing, Don Figueroa's re-designs are COOL ENOUGH to make the property re-born again. and even whith the upcoming WAR FOR CYBERTRON videogame, they do still have a chance to redeem the TF franchise. But please, one more thought, Make them in proper sizes or scaled between them THE BEST WAY YOU CAN. How is it possible that STARWARS, GIJOE, MARVEL, DCU, MASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE, HOTWHEELS, BEN10, ACTION MAN, BARBIE, et al. interact properly with scaled down and all cool stuff that have made them unique among collectors, and the TF cannot ANYMORE? How is it possible that a Fire truck is a lot bigger than a jet and a tank? that a sports car is bigger than a truck or a tank? I remember the good ol' days, 1984 G1, The Pretenders, The Powermasters, The Gestalts.....ahhhh the good ol' days.

  7. PLEEEEEAAASE!!!!! NO MORE F..... re-paints. Please No more. What we NEED are NEW MOLDS, or at least COHERENT re-tools. Let DRIFT BE DRIFT, and no other character, please we are ALL tired of NO NONSENSE re-paints. perial.
  8. Sorry my friend, i do not believe this is a custom work... It looks really from a PRO!. Congrats pal, Excellent work I'd like to see your take on the PYTHONA and the South American Cobras.
  9. I found this in Mr. Jin Saotome's customs website, and I BELIEVE this is what i am talking about. http://www.angelfire.com/mech/jinsaotome/JinsDangerousToys/CapA.html http://www.angelfire.com/mech/jinsaotome/JinsDangerousToys/Rogue.html http://www.angelfire.com/mech/jinsaotome/JinsDangerousToys/MagnetoMvC.html
  10. Hasbro is well known for RE-DOING/UPDATING some concepts over the time, and when they do so, they deliver some really COOL STUFF. Just take a look to the 1995 STAR WARS 3 3/4" through the 2010 SW NEW Vintage; and from 2002 GIJOE vs. COBRA through the GIJOE 25th anniv, and Beyond 2010. They always do the same over the years, so it has crossed through my mind that WHAT IF Hasbro ever decides to RE-DO ENTIRELY the MARVEL LEGENDS 6" concept, from SQUARE ONE?. i.e. Back in 2001 with TOT BIZ series ONE which included CAPTAIN AMERICA, IRON MAN, HULK & TOAD. The figures were COOL ENOUGH back then, but we have to admit that they still missed some well sculpts, because of the tooling, they had "MONKEY ARMS" and in later series the figures sported the infamous "PIN HEADS". Today the 6" Super Hero figure standards are met with the 4H sculpts of the awesome MATTEL's DCUC series & MOTUC line. Today the MARVEL LEGENDS are (almost) gone, and the ones that we have collected over the years are not really good/cool enough; FIRST: they are not in scale even with themselves and SECOND: not in scale with their counterparts, the DCUC. Lets face it, DCUC sports the PERFECT MALE BODY for the portait of ANY SUPERHERO, (they DO always LOOK HEROIC), and on the other hand HASBRO has developed the PERFECT FEMALE BODY for the portrait of ANY SUPERHEROINE (they DO LOOK SEXY & HEROIC). So the question is, IF HASBRO EVER DECIDES TO MAKE a NEW ML figure series from square one, to met against MATTEL's DCUC, WOULD YOU -THE MARVEL LEGENDS collector- support the company?
  11. exactly I agree, you have my vote of confidence. I believe that maybe ol' George will bring him back in the upcoming STARWARS live action series, I read somewhere that BOBA FETT will be on the spotlight during the series, so maybe he will face MACE WINDU (if he's alive indeed) and then have a showdown. Maybe he's the one that BOBA FETT desintegrates after all (remember when VADER asks him about "NO DISINTEGRATIONS"). With whom could BOBA FETT be so enraged to desintegrate, my bet is on MACE WINDU. maybe......
  12. Being MACE WINDU the second most powerful JEDI (after YODA o'course) i honestly have never thought for him to have died in that fall; i believe that the obvious choice (I would have done it, if i were to be betrayed and outnumbered in that crucial fight) was to escape. In fact it appears to me that MACE indeed JUMPS through the window, and was not pushed by the lightning storm that PALPATINE created. I remember in the CLONE WARS animated mini-series (not CGI) that MACE WINDU attacked a FEDERATION Ship and COMPLETELY destroyed it, even JUMPED too far after the explosion and landed on safe ground OK. So, With or without a hand, he still had his legs and could have landed somewhere on any building or vehicle that happened to come by. Even in EPII:ATOC, ANAKIN realized some stunts like those. so WAS IT POSSIBLE FOR HIM TO HAVE SURVIVED?, i say YES!. Now the REAL Question is: did he survived in the mind of GEORGE LUCAS?
  13. DAMN! It wasn't the LUTHOR from the five pack! So, Hope they make it OK at retail, that justify more 2-packs like those ones. By the way I believe that If MATTEL ever consider making THUNDERCATS & SILVERHAWKS, the Masters body type could be used for the Thundercats & the DCUC body for the SILVERHAWKS. How about it, uh?
  14. What intrigues me is that the article says "PACKS" as in "More than ONE"? So what would that mean, or better to say, WHO will they be pairing with WHOM? The comic depicts MASTERS' HE-MAN, SKELETOR, MAN-AT-ARMS, TEELA and BEAST-MAN and from DC only SUPES, so if there are going to be "PACKS" which DCUC will be in them?. Maybe: SKELETOR / LEX LUTHOR (obvious choice, only hope its the one from the 5-pack) DUNCAN / BATMAN TEELA / WONDER WOMAN BEAST-MAN / AQUAMAN or HAWKMAN or FLASH or HAL JORDAN or WHOM?! By the way, I found out the "JUSTIFICATION" for this crazy crossover; just turn to page 12 http://www.htmlcomics.com/Book/html.asp?Series_Name=Dc%20Comics%20Presents&Book_No=047&Page_Number=2&Alpha=D&Lookup= and read what HE-MAN tells SUPERMAN about planet EARTH. Could this be another subplot involving the DCU 52 EARTHS? ................ ............................. ............................. and if that's so, well then.... I WANT THE THUNDERCATS & SILVERHAWKS BACK! #US1#
