X-Iceman · 02-03-2004, 04:17 PM

its a cool animation. but i want to be able to control it >:O

OptionZero · 02-03-2004, 05:22 PM

confirmed so far:

Subaru Impreza WRC (out in US and Japan)
Dodge Viper (out in U.S. limited distribution so far, waiting for saturation and Japan)

Jeep Wrangler
Chevy Corvette (c5)
Subaru Impreza WRX '04 headlights (silver)

the RX-8 is computer generated mockup, although a toy has been confirmed the flash show isn't representative of the final product, a prototype hasn't even been made (that we know of)

Japanese Versions are called Transformers BinalTech, they use die cast and are around $60-70 shipped to US, American Version is called transformers Alternators and are 100% plastic, around $20 at local kmart, walmart, or toys r us

Oh, and they kick ass

OptionZero · 02-03-2004, 05:35 PM

First two pics are Binaltech's, 3rd is american version Alternators, last one is...why i dont have more car parts haha

nightwalker · 02-03-2004, 07:16 PM

I love transformers. I remeber playing with my friends when I was like 7.

OptionZero · 02-03-2004, 07:26 PM

why stop now?

DRFT · 02-03-2004, 07:36 PM

thats tite man, wasnt there a new transformers anime out right now? but didnt quite make it in the us?

o well gota get the dvds!!!

OptionZero · 02-03-2004, 08:08 PM

Current Transformers series is called Energon, and airs on saturdays on Cartoon Network. times change often, so check the website www.toonami.com

It just started last week.

The one before that was Armada, which blew.

I don't recall any Transformers show recently that did not air in both america and japan.

Since around...'97 or so... we've had
Beast Wars (Canadian CG animated)
Beast Machines (Canadian CG animated)
Robots in Diguise (cel animation from Japan, original script Japanese, translated to america)
Armada (cel animation from Japanbut script joint effort by Takara and Hasbro)
Energon (cel animation from Japan but heavy heavy anime flavor, join effort by Takara and Hasbro)

Steeles · 02-04-2004, 07:33 AM

yeah I caught energon over the weekend. very anime flavored especially when Kicker got his armor" its weird when they bring back the old names as like total newbs, like ironside as a rookie. but ehh.

I've still got a few of my old ones. I wish I still had all of Jetfires armor. and I still have my G1 Optimus but not his hands or gun. I was always a fan of the obscure ones fromthe show, like Skywarp and Thundercracker, or sideswipe and sunstreak. dammit those pics are gonna make me go toy shopping

I gotta get the sideswipe altenator at least. and the black prime and the 20th anniversary one http://www.hasbro.com/transformers/op/

man im such a big kid.

OptionZero · 02-04-2004, 12:17 PM

Toys rock! They just suck away your car fund, hehe

NinjaGaiden · 02-04-2004, 01:19 PM

o man, why did I look at this thread, now I gtg get me some transformers....but need money for car parts....arrrrg !

*exitspeed* · 02-04-2004, 01:16 PM

yeah i saw that one.. sometime around 85? when it first came out lol. find the one where he's painted in Nissans IMSA colors

OptionZero · 02-04-2004, 03:29 PM

Thats smokescreen. He's on the Hasbro page under Commorative Series IV i think.
American versions of the reissues suck, order the japanese versions from www.bigbadtoystore.com or www.hlj.com

OptionZero · 02-04-2004, 03:30 PM

Link to Japanese re-issue Smokescreen, racing version of the old school Z...280Z i think?
