RiD toys are pretty enjoyable & most of them aren't easy to find complete.

If those are really in good shape, I'd say buy. :thumbs:

Yes, that's a good price, if they're in good condition and complete. I think I got Ultra Magnus and Prime loose for $50 each, and it's pretty hard to find them that low.

I had Rail Racer, and paid less than that, but when I had him, I thought he looked horrible. I only liked the train modes, so I sold it.

 

[MetalSymphony]

Well, i have a google check coming, so i have been looking at some TF's in that price range.

Could always splurge on a Botcon Tf too, always wanted to start a Shattered Glass Collection.

Just wanted to say thanks to fakebusker83 for creating this add-on for RTS Grappel. - RTS Grappel set 1.5 by fakebusker83 on Shapeways

Yo dawg, I heard you like grapples, so I put a grapple on Grappel's grapple, so you can grapple while you grapple with Grappel.

Perfect Effect - next Motobot figure (?)

That is one sexy bike mode. Robot mode looks good too.

No idea whom he's homaging, but I might consider him as my first Perfect Effect toy!

...that is unless the Leo Convoy and Big Convoy ever come out.

Robot mode? What you probably saw was the Blue RC version. The new one doesn't have a bot mode yet. But, it should be a retool of the current PE RC fig.

That Grapple add-on set looks pretty great. I might have to finally order something from Shapeways, though it's pretty pricey.

I see. I saw the robot mode photo and assumed that's what it'll look like.

Universal Studio's Transformers The Ride, exclusive DX Evac

 

[Zeltrax541]

Huh. Evac looks kinda cool.

To me, it seems like Evac's transformation is gonna be one easy sucker.

I'm betting Optibotimus could do it blind-folded.

It's easy enough that you want someone else to do it for you? :sly:

I meant that when Optibotimus eventually gets his Evac, he could transform it without looking at it.

I just kinda meant the whole "blind-folded" thing as a joke.

Sorry if I offended anyone.
