Ratchet and Ironhide... I will pass on these... never really liked them even as a kid...

[DPrime]

Seriously? Sweet... These are two that I need!

 

I'll just keep 'em in alt mode.

[synch]

OUT FREAKN STANDING! Why it took this long I do not know! I missed the ehobby or whatever of these & never had (or most likely wanted as a kid) these but as a adult I want them now

[madman1366]

Yeah they're probably the strangest looking of the g1 figs, but I still want them.

 

I got originals of each, sadly incomplete, and I think they're neat in an odd way. I'm probably gonna keep my encore set sealed anyway so it's no biggie.

[synch]

just hope they don't package them in robot mode HA!

[Devilbat]

I never liked them as a kid, but as an adult I'd like to have them simply for their relevance to the G1 mythos and overall Transformers toys history.

 

Having said that, wouldn't it be sweet if they did a Masterpiece Ironhide? That way they'd be totally justified in doing a Ratchet repaint later. It's a no-brainer.

[biglebowski9999]

Very odd choices, but I will probably get them. I'm just ecstatic that they are continiuing the line! So, I wonder who the 3rd one will be??

[Blackheart]

Hell yeah I'm buying these.

Predaking... Thundercracker... and Skywarp... would be nice...

[TRUESTYLE]

bbts cheepest place to get these?????????? im verry excited for these guys!!!!!!!!!!

[Nguyen_Dragon]

I usually get stuff from BBTS if I intend to keep them MISB... because for an extra two dollars I can upgrade the product to collectors grade...

[heroicnonsense]

I wonder if they'll reissue Trailbreaker this time.

 

And there's still hope for SkyLynx after last week's news ofcourse.

 

After more than a year we're finally getting new reissues! YaY!

Don't forget the seacons & trpticon We know they still have these molds caues of bw neo or whatever it was... a boxed set or something in g1 colors would be nice! Same goes for fortmax

I must have missed this SkyLynx news... what's the deal?

 

Personally, I'm hoping for Trailbreaker, Ramjet and Thrust, and to a lesser extent, Skywarp and Thundercracker (not really impressed with the Hasbro reissues to be quite honest). I'd like Blurr at some point, just because he seems to go with Hot Rod and Kup...

Nothing's set in stone, but TakaraTomy showed a vintage G1 SkyLynx at last week's Hobby Expo Japan.

Sky Lynx is still a rumor... but like most rumors about Transformers... its usually true...

ditto. im guessing that trailbreaker will be the third

[Silverbolt]

Probably will pass on Ironhide and Ratchet. Just don't think that they're worth even 40 dollars. Would get Trailbreaker though if he was reissued, believe that is the last of the exclusive limited reissue figures that I'd want that haven't already been done. would probably get Sky Lynx, not crazy about the figure but I enjoyed his character on the show.

[synch]

Silverbolt do you have R&I already either original or from reissues?..

 

PS wow a silverbolt post! Have not seen one of those in a while

Don't have either. But I've seen them first hand and thats enough to know they have no place in my collection. Those two are probably the only Diaclone/G1 figures that I have no interest at all in owning, though there are plenty of others that I don't have as well.

[Rama Sha]

Wow....I can't wait. I've been wating for a wide release of this since they started doing the reissues. Hope Trailbreaker is soon to follow.

[Rodimus Primal]

Even though I have an original Ironhide and Ratchet, it would be nice to get a minty fresh one. Then I just have to order those head decals from Reprolabels.

[Nguyen_Dragon]

I am crossing my fingers for Classic Ironhide and Ratchet... I just cant get past the no head thing... I wonder why they didnt mold a toon accurate head like they did with Bumblebee.. from the pictures I think its possible... but I dont have the figure so I could be wrong...

[Lew]

Can anyone tell me why these guys never had heads? I remember as a kid thinking that I got a defective Ironhide because he had no head! I would love these if they had heads!

i beleive these were made before the cartoons, the cartoon people decided to do draw them up differntly. i remember the 1st transformers epesode, ratchet transforms and his trailer is beside him opened like the toy, only time i ever saw it in the cartoon series.

i preordered both, i love the way the look as-is. cant wait to have them as part of the collection. but dont get me wrong, i would LOVE to have an accurate I&R with heads too
