not bad at all SGB!

Received the Takara Encore (#11) Skywarp and Thundercracker set this afternoon.

*Pushes cupboard doors shut as tight as possible to prevent overflowing Transformers items from falling out*

Picked up TFA Deluxe Class Blazing Lockdown this morning.

I've got almost all of the TFA Deluxes now.

Where have you been getting the G1 reissues? I have some from Amazon but they are costly. Does masterpiece prime transform? I am looking for G1 reissued Devastator

From online stores and private sales with fans.

Yes.

Devastator hasn't been reissued at this stage. I'm not sure if he'll be reissued ... rumor has it the original Constructicon moulds are in unusable condition now, which would make a Devastator reissue impossible unless new moulds were made.

which online stores. I was hoping to make Devastator flight Voltron. Always wanted the combines to do that.

I have a g1 devastator all it needs is a head and arms I am willing to trade for something voltron

Big Bad Toy Store (BBTS for short)

Hobby Link Japan (HLJ for short)

I primarily use BBTS for online orders of Transformers figures.

I've only used HLJ once, and that was when the Japanese G1 Hoist and G1 Trailbreaker reissues were being sold for $25AU each.


Speaking of BBTS, they're having a 15% off sale so I ordered a few items a couple of nights ago: TFA Leader Class Shadow Blade Megatron, Encore Ironhide, Encore Ironhide Black Version (E-Hobby exclusive), Encore Ratchet, and Henkei Hotroad (Hotshot).

I just got Black Megatron. The only other reissues I have are Ironhide and Rachet. I am planning to get more. I am looking for ramvage ,frenzy ,and starscrem. I have a bunch of old transformers in a box downstairs with some gobots.

Starscream has had reissues by both Takara and Hasbro.

Starscream has also had a Masterpiece release from both Takara and Hasbro. I have the Hasbro version and it's an awesome figure.

The Cassetticons (from both Soundwave and Blaster) were recently reissued. They're little too pricey for me at the moment so I'm waiting for the price to go down before purchasing them.

Is there a list of Takara and Hasbro reissues?

Will see if I can find such a list.



Another Transformers figure landed on my doorstep today: Henkei Galvatron.

Do you know where I can find a reissued Starscream? Amazon has them for 92 dollars.

Latest acquisition: Heroes of Cybertron Skywarp.

I think ebay might be your best bet.

I've loooked at several online stores and none had any Takara or Hasbro Starscream reissues in stock.

I have a reissue Omega Supreme on the way. I heard most of the G1 transformers were rehabs of toys from something called Diclone and Microman.
