I'd love to have that Ratbat. Seeing as there's NO TRU's in S. Arkansas, I took off work on July 18th so I could stay up all night and get my order in online through TRU for the Hasbro Soundwave....lol. So I only have the 5 tapes that came with him. 22 tapes! My lord man! what

You must have a lot of the KFC ones? Yep, can't wait to see your collection thread, bud.

cheers

KFC sold cassettes? I need to talk to Kernel Sanders

I have been wanting that MP Soundwave ever since I first heard about it. But money issues keep me from being able to get it.
Now they got a Ratbat, I want the MP Soundwave even more. But I'm not willing to buy 2 MPs just so I can have all the cassettes. I wonder if they will sale Ratbat seperatly.

I think it'll inevitably happen. If Takara doesn't do it, then I'd imagine it'll get KO'ed much like MP Alert and MP Lambor did. Too much of a money making venture for someone for it not to happen.

by Ravage Sun Sep 08, 2013 7:41 pm

well i bet ebay will have plenty of them eventually. i dont have any kfc cassettes yet. i have all the g1 cassettes and 2 of the dino cassettes. also have classics ravage and 2 mp cassettes. i may take some pics tonight and try to get them posted in the next day or two.

by **Sixshot** Mon Sep 09, 2013 1:52 am

Yeah, I didn't think to count the G1 tapes. Lol. Thought you were saying you had 22 MP tapes. what

I've got all the G1 tapes myself, except for Beastbox and Squalktalk. Oh and the dinos, too. I've been tempted to get the Beastbox and Squalktalk that KFC has though, their tapes look sharp but I need to watch some reviews first to check on that companies quality.

Slugfest and Overkill need MP attention. They are in 1 G1 series for about 2 seconds.
Can anybody name the episode?

I look forward to seeing how this is going to work as a MP figure, one thing for sure, he is a most worthy winner

by **Sixshot** Tue Nov 19, 2013 10:51 pm

Out of all the candidates, I'm glad Star Saber was chosen. Even though I honestly could care less for anything beyond the US G1 series, it's good to see some Victory fans get some love.

Star Saber is a bad ass robot, especially around when he came into TF, he was the only Autobot to wield a sword in every super robot appearance, completely out numbering Fort Max, plus, he also adopted a human child as his son! Anyway, I hope with Star Saber entering the works, they'll follow it up with a Victory Leo that can combine with him to form Victory Saber, which is a even more bad ass robot, thou much of him is technically VL becoming a back pack and some booster shoes, plus VL cannons sticking across the shoulders, but he still out classes some of the other two part combiner robots that come after him!

by **Sixshot** Wed Nov 20, 2013 12:55 am

That's cool and all, and I'm sure Star Saber will be a big seller in Takaras Japanese market, but I think they could have went another direction for a more popular global character and made more money. I mean, if they really wanted to do a non-US G1 character, it's no contest that Overlord would have been the best seller (globally).

by **Galvatron** Wed Nov 20, 2013 5:42 am

I don't know who any of these Victory guys are.

Galvatron wrote:I don't know who any of these Victory guys are.

Star Saber is the leader of the Autobots, Victory Leo is the reborn form of God Grini, the robot! Trust me Galvy, Victory is most definitely worth checking out, its set in the same old G1 universe but a lot furrier along in terms of years, only a few of the early G1 characters appear thou they don't have much of a role to play since its showing off the latest characters to have toys and Star Saber is the coolest because he has technically three robot forms, thou only two are used primary in the show, thou the third is only scene in the stock footage of his transformation!

I got all the episodes but never watched them. I'll check them out one day when I'm bored and feel like reading subtitles.

Just don't try with the official lamo dub, of course if you got to TFcog you can DL and watch it with the fandubs thou they only go as far as Awaken Victory Leo and stop there, their dubbing of the eps of the series slowed down to an extremely slow crawl and to think their trying to do fandubs of other TF series from Japan when they can't even finish one series! (rolls eyes)

I got the fan dubbed Headmasters series. The one with the dumb voices and weird names.

If its on DVD, that's the so called "OFFICIAL" dub, AKA the lamo Star dubs, the real fan dubs try to be more faithful to the eps story lines, thou honestly with some dubs of anime, they can be kind of poorly done or the actors doing the voices, just don't put any heart into it!

Fuck yeah! You got a good deal on 'em too. :sweet:

You're going to love that mold!

by **Galvatron** Mon Dec 23, 2013 3:19 am

watched a few previews on youtube and seen one that KINDA makes Tigertracks look a LITTLE bit more like Sunstreaker. Don't look all that great but it's a filler until they release the real Sunstreaker.

he explains what I mean around 2:50
