Ultra Magnus Transformers G1

January 6, 2014 Hasbro, Transformers, Transformers No Comments

Here’s a loose Ultra Magnus that I picked up on Ebay.  I just got a more complete one with the belt, bigger head, chest piece, missile launchers and fists.  He looks much, much better complete.  He’s the same body as Optimus Prime but just in white. Ultra Magnus Transformers

Here’s one that I just got from Ebay – brand new in box for 45 dollars- Ricochet.  This is basically the same body as Jazz but he’s black. I don’t believe this character was in the cartoon and I don’t recall seeing him as a kid but I’m glad to have him.  I now have both Porsche 911  robots.

Trailbreaker Transformers G1

December 31, 2013 Hasbro, Transformers, Transformers No Comments

Here’s a loose Trailbreaker Transformers G1 that I just picked up on Ebay.  I had this as a kid but probably traded him.  He’s missing the fists but that’s ok.  I now have both Ford Bronco trucks.  The other robot that shares the same mold is Hoist (the green robot below)

Red Alert and Sideswipe – Transformers Generation 1

December 6, 2013 Hasbro, Takara, Transformers, Transformers, Transformers 1 Comment

These are original from the 80’s.  I got Red Alert in Japan along with Inferno.  I thought they made a good set since they were both firefighters.  I also have a G2 Sideswipe and Sunstreaker.  I now have all 4 Lamborghinis.

Railspike Transformers by Takara – Cybertron Team Shinkansen 2000

December 4, 2013 Takara, Transformers No Comments

I just bought this one a few months ago…there’s 2 or 3 other Japanese train robos in the same line and this one is called Railspike in the US and J-Five in Japan.  I had to do some research and I believe the series is called “Cybertron Team Shinkansen.”  Supposedly the others combine to form one big robot but I didn’t get that impression and so, I only bought the one I liked the most. I might go back and get the rest as it was only 20 dollars.

Convoy 01 Transformers 15th Anniversary Edition Takara 2000

December 1, 2013 Takara, Transformers, Transformers 1 Comment

Here’s Optimus Prime!  This one is the Convoy 01 Takara 15th Anniversary Edition re-issue. But I never had the original Optimus Prime as a kid. I bought him in Akihabara during my last trip to Japan. I got him for 40 dollars at Mandarake. Which was a very good deal. I haven’t taken him out of the box but will at some point.
