I've already put Sideswipe on my display shelf and given his gun to Classics Cliffjumper.

I do understand though, many of my favorite TFs has never had good toys and they probably will never get better toys thanks to Hasbro treating Beast Wars like a redheaded step-child. Yeah, I'm bitter.

Whats your fav TF's? I'm sure they made at least one good one.

posted a few pics of my Harley Quinn statue here in the Cool Stuff thread that I think everyone should see because she is gorgeous.

Word of warning guys, D-Arts Rockman is dangerously fragile especially at the legs. The groin piece makes it hard to do any decent poses and there are no thigh cuts to help so the figure is stiff. The plastic on my Rockman's right thigh just snapped on me which is heartbreaking. Maybe its the size of the figure and the tightness of the joints.

I might try supergluing it back together but it bums me out that my first D-Art broke on me. Well at least Rush and the Met are nice...

Got a Ryuki Survive. Beautiful doesn't even begin to describe it. It just works so well as an action figure which is weird considering how weird in looked on the show.

Not tokusatsu related, but I did just win a Rock Lords Spike Stone off of eBay. Just need 2 more figures (Nuggit and Narlizard, the latter of which I have a bid on currently) to have all of the first two series, which is all I am looking for from the line currently. I'm a huge Rock Lords fan from my childhood and I am happy to finally have Terra-Roc's fellow Rockasaurus, having had Terra-Roc since I was a kid and all!

That really sucks, and kinda weans my decision on getting Rockman a little…oh well, I'm satisfied with the Model kit that I have.

SHF red buster, akiba yellow and a tamashii stage arrived today

HenshinTension · 01-15-2013, 03:32 PM

This came in today! Only had a chance to mess with it for a little bit. I wish the volume was a bit louder but it's still pretty neat!

The plastic "fingers" makes it look like someone love the Tensouder a little too much (can't unsee!!)
