New FAB Arcee Image; Deluxe Thrust Video Review

Well from TFW2005 here is a picture of Fast Action Battlers Arcee in her motorcycle mode compared to her free BurgerKing version. This seems incredibly similar to the deluxe version in my opinion, click here to view the entire gallery

Also a youtuber has posted his review of Transformers:Revenge of the Fallen Deluxe class Thrust that is just a repaint of Breakaway. Overall, i think that the figure will be better than Breakaway himself.

New Custom Voyager Megatron; Custom Voyager Ratchet Update.

Well once agian my friend Ross has done a very good job at customizing a transformer. He has painted my Voyager MegatronSilver with Copper detailing. This figure looks incredibly amazing, it is undiscribable. The entire figure is just so awesome, noce again i will uplad pictures when ever possible.

Now i would like to say that i have took my black paint and started to make Ratchet more movie accurate. I took the black paint and painted his arms, and then his legs (sides of them).

NOTE: Me and Ross are soon going to create a youtube channel that we will share, you will be able to see our opinion's on Movies, video games, and airsoft guns :-), also ofcourse we will each put up our own Transformers reviews. I will keep you guys updated when this channel will be up and running.

Also sorry i have not been blogging in a while, i have been really busy. And thank's to Ross for doing such a great job painting, and aso, i might get the gathering at the Nemisis set and he will paint that megatron Purple to resemble Galvatron possibly.

Deluxe Mudflap Review


Well i went to Target earlier, and now im back. It was between him and sideways (the darker version i may add), and i wanted all of the autobot's, so thats why i got him. I really love his Chevy Trax alt mode, i think that it suits him just fine. He goes great ith my cannon bumblebee, unfortunetly he is pritty small for a deluxe, but he is the same size as his brother Skids, so it kind of makes up for it. his rear license plate says Mudflap in a pritty crappy font, and has a very nice Chevrolet symbol on the front of the car. He has two silver head lights, and two red rear ones, also he has two molded in mirrors. He can store his missle in vehicle mode,and it stores in the middle behind the car, ad it actually looks like exaust (i might be rong... i think that is what it is). he has a spoiler which is a very nice touch, and some awesome looking black rims and tires, very detailed. Unfortunetly on the right side of mines he has a bunch of scratches (WTF!!!!!!!!!) but its not the end of the world. He has a very detailed robot mode,especially his head. His head is so detailed that it looks exactly like it did in the movie and the concept art. He does have his oversized right arm, and if you pull don his two middle fingers, a gun pops up, and you can insert the missle, and it will actually fire fairly well. Unfortunetly he has a pritty big-ass backpack. He has an autobot symbol on his crotch. . . . . . . Riiiiight. But overall, i really like this figure alot, and think you should get him.


I give Deluxe Mudflap a 9 out of 10

New blog Created

well i have created a brand new blog just for fun, the blog is all about me, here is the link

"Board member S250 has recieved an image from yihzi at TF08 for the upcoming Revenge of the Fallen Jungle Attack Ironhide Figure. Parting from the previous voyager mold, Jungle Attack replaces the Road Armor front bumper with a removable bullbar which itself transforms into a crossbow. He also includes a combat knife, minigun and rifle which replace his former weapons. The knife can be wielded as a bayonet by combining it with the supplied rifle. Other mold changes include new louvered window armored door panels, a weapons rack on his bed and roof, and spotlights over his windshield."

100th post, Leader Jetfire Review


Well here it is, my leader Jetfire review, also my 100th post! I was saving it for him! Now on to Jetfire.... Jetfire turns into a Lockheed Martin SR-71 BlackBird. This is an incredibley awesome Mode! As it is possibley the most awesomest jet for a transformer ever. Unfortunetly the kibble on the bottom of the jet makes this toy a bit less wanted :-(, but that does not make it awful. He has landing gear wich is great, and they all retract, the front one becomes his cane in robot mode, and he also has a missle launcher under the nose of the plane that can detach if you want it to, it also attach's to his rist in robot mode for a missle launcher above his hand. He also cann combine with Leader class Optimus Prime, which can make him even more awesome! When they are combined as we all know, Optimus has the gun arm that believe it or not you can also put the gun on Jetfire if you would like, but he fails to hold it very well. he actually has his wiskers which is a very neat thing. He has four decepticon symbols: on the top wings on each of them there are a red symbol with the wing hing's and a few numbers, on the bottom ones, a symbol on each side that seems like jetfire has been trying to scratch off of himself (just a thought), and also picture of a skunk that my friend thinks just might mean that since there is a decepticon symbol right near it mens that they stink i agree. right near the cockpit there is the words "LT. COL BROWLY", followed by some smaller print that i cannot read. the tips of his thrusters are rubber along with the nose of the plane. There are also the two red stripes toward the back of the plane and "JTFR" on both sides of the middle of the plane. Unfortunetly the color is off as it is blue with a bit of yellow and some white instead of being all black, infact my friend Ross who pained Mixmaster, is making a deal with me to paint him black and add silver and a bit of red detail for 20.00. I am givig him Jetfire for painting soon. When you pull down a yellow nob-thing, in a scottish accent Jetfire says "Jetfire's my name" and a bunch of gears in his chest move around, while one side of his chest will light up (WTF!) and the cockpit above his head will also light up, as his head turns.


Overall, i incrediby love and reccomend this toy, be sure to check the upcoming toy reviews for more, a i am adding new ones right now!


I give Leader class Jetfire a 8 out of a possible 10, due to kibble and lack of color correction

Legends Mudflap Review


Well i got Legends Mudflap a few days ago, and i must admit he is a great figure. He has a very cartoonish look to his Chevy Trax mode, but it is still a very nice mode. In the Trax mode, on the right side (if you look at it from the front), he has a completed window, but on the left side, it has a orange streak between the back windo, wich makes it lack in detail. He does actually have his oversized right arm, and it has four fingers which is awesome, and on the left hand has a molded in finger and thumb. He has an actually good representation of Mudflap's face, and has his eyes painted a light blue. He has a orange autobot symbol on the back window of the Trax and his oversized arm in robot mode. This is possibly the best Legends figure in the Revenge of the Fallen Toyline as it is amazing and it is a must get legends figure, it has great articulation also, what more can you ask for?


I give Legends Mudflap a 10 out of a possible 10. :-)

Im Back

Well i'm back, and got Jetfire before i left and then picked up legends Mudflap at a walmart because i liked them bth, expect reviews later or sooner today....

Customized Demolishor




Well i just finished customizing my Demolishor to look more bad-ass. I am now going to tell you everything you need to do to make your constructicon's look bad-ass.




1. What i have done to Rampage and Demolishor is roll them around in the dirt to make the treds look dirty, and then pick some dirt up and rub it all over them, also with demolishor i dug in the ground with his shovel (do this in vehicle mode guys) then once the dirt is good you are ready for painting.




2. for painting what i did was i took black paint (does not matter what kind at all) and started at the shovel by painteing sections at a time, when you do a little bit you want to dab it with a rag so that it would give it a worn out look (after all, there construction vehicles), i did this all over it.




3. If you would like to you can get some red and white paint, and write "O&K on the top of the shovel in red, and also write it in white on the side of it (not the cab side though).






These are all of the modification's i have done so far.

Leader Jetfire is on the way!!!!!!!!!



Well it is official i am gettting leader Jetfire as we have just ordered it from Toysrus.com. Unfortunetly it takes 2-3 buissness days to ship, :-(. Ayway... Be sure to check my blog every now and then, if it is to arrive on Wednsday, i will not be able to reveiw it because i will be in Atlantic City for the Airshow (as i am everyyear around this time,) and i will not be on here from Wednsday to the following Saturday, therefore i will not be able to review him soon. So keep an eye out for Jetfire!!!!!!!!

Leader Grindor?

Well according to Wikipedia there will be a leader Grindor in 2010 that will mostlikely be released around the same time that Leader Starscream is. Here is what Wikipedia says:

"Some highly anticipated concept art of a "leader class" Grindor/Blackout was released at Hasbro Q&A session in a Transformers convention on August 10, 2009;Chicago, Illinois. It revealed a completely new mold,which would be approximately 25 centimeters tall in robot mode,and many features including lights and sounds; it would have a "movie-accurate" blade-weapon, two removable shoulder cannons,a 1 inch gatling gun on his right arm, and a firing chest weapon similar to the one seen on Blackout in the first film. Currently there are no photos for the vehicle mode. Also unclear if a Scorponok figure is included"

I might want it.

District 9 review




Well i saw District 9 last night. Holy Shit!!!!!!!! This was a masterpiece in alien movie making, it tells you the story of how the aliens are trapped here and just want to get to go back to there home planet, while a worker for MNU named Wikus is appointed head of the operation to move the aliens to a saer more better community out of Jahnesburg were the aliens are originally being held (or so they thought.) Wikius was knocking on the aliens' shacks' door's making them sign a papre that agreed them that they they would move to a better place. Most of the aliens would not except, and to many died moving them out. Christopher Johnson is an alien who also has a small son who they are both trying to get enough fuel to leave the planet and get the rest of the aliens out of here. Wikus finds a small oval-like container and is examining it while out of no were black stuff shoots at his face makin him cough horribly and later puke badly, he then tries to negotiate with an alien but he throws him against a porterptty and breaks his arm, and eventually when they had a surprise party for him celebrating how he was appointed head of the operation, he told his wife that earlier his finger nails fell off and was not feeling well, he then goes to cut the cake and is all slow and eventually puke's out te blake stuff all over the cake, and tries to wipe it up but then passes out on the ground. At the hospital, a doctor is examining Wikus and eventually cuts open his cast revealing a alien am growing!! Wikus emedietlly starts freaking out as the doctor tells his to stay come. The doctor calls in MNU and armed forces wrapp him in a body bag type of thing and take him away, while his wife is demanding for answers and crying at the same time. Wikus wakes up nd is in a top secret facility 4 story's under ground, he wakes up and see's aliens in peices as if they were burnt demanding for answers as a nurse is quickly pushing Wikus on the cart-thing. He is eventually brought to the weapons room and he is being forced to use the weapons to see if they will work because it does not work on humans, he kept on refuseing untill they finally made him and he kept on shooting, until they brought in another alien thatthey were going to test it on, and he refused and refused but they finally made him and he did. They then needed to take his entire body apart for tsting but at the last second when they wer going to cut his hart out with a saw he flipped out and held a nurse hostaget with a litte knife and then ran up an elevator and ran outside, with the MNU special forces hot on his tail. He steals some clothes of a clothes line in someone' backyard and tries to get into were the aliens are all located in District 9 he succeded and runs into Christopher who tells him you must go and cannot hide here but he says he needs 5 minutes and then passes out, Christopher and his child put him in a what is later to be a ship hach underground.
To hear the rest go out and see the movie as it worth all the money.
I give District 9 a 10 out of 10

Voyager Demolishor review.




Well here is my 3rd and final birthday review, I have recieved Voyager Demolishor from my cousin Nicky and i thank him for this awesome figure. Demolishor is one of the consucticons that does not form Devastator as we all know, He has a pritty bad-ass altmode with the translucent purple windows, and a very nice cab. He is prity small in alt mode for a voyager, but has a very big robot mode. He has a very awesome decepticon symbol on the bottom of the side of the alt mode. His robot mode is very strange and does not fill up very well... he has a very awesome head sculpt, i think it is possible my favorite head sculpt out of all of the constructicon's. unfortunetly his hands do not rotate to make the arms more proportionate. The shovel has alot of posibility in vehicle mode as you can make it look really hot, I will be modding him with blackwash detail later, i will be sure to have an update video showing what i have done. Unfortunetly the treads do not rotate in vehicle mode unless you use alot of force on the ground, but in robot mode, it is a bit easier. You can actually make him have a bit more space filled up by bringing the upper tire down more and i think it looks alot better, overall i really like this awesome figure as he is a must have to add to anyone's collection.


I give Vyager Deloishor a 8 out of a possible 10

Voyager Megatron Review


Well here is my second transformers review for my birthday, Voyager Megatron. I really, really love this toy in both alt mode and robot mode. I think this is a bettter version than the leader version because this toy has a more accurate tank mode because it has wings and more accurate thrusters on the back then the leader version. Except for the fct that he is green, i think that it just represents his emergence from the sea when the constructicon revive him. One thing i have noticed about nearly ever 1st and second movie mold of Megatron has his face showing, but is covered by a face plate thing. The trnsformation is not hard, it is fairly easy his mechalive feature isif you twist his wast gears in his chest move, alos if you would like to call this mechalive, when you move his claw arm down,the same kind of gears move in the arms, extending the claw. The one major lt down about this Megatron mold is that he has a bigass backpack thing that is hard to get a good position were you would like it to stay. Overall i extremely reccomend this toy as he is in my top three for favorite toys, he is definetly better thn leader Megatron, so go get one of the other leaders before you get the leader Megatron unless you really want it.

I give Voyager Megatron a 9 out of a possible 10 due to the color scheme is off and the bigass backpack

Scout DuneRunner Review

Well i welcome you to the first of three (mostlikely) Transformers review's for my birthday, first up i will be reviewing the awesome Scout Dunerunner. Dunerunner is a Dunebuggy, who has two machinegun turret's on the top of his vehicle mode, and the top of his arms in robot mode. His arms become seets and they are pritty good blue ones. For a scout he has a tremendous amount of detail, such as his very nice blue window, Detailed N.E.S.T. symbol, (the same one that the guy in the beggining of the movie talking to Lennox had),a very nice light that would be able to rotate in real life but not on the toy on the hood, the numbers 0318 at the bottom of the doors on each side. Very nice brake lights. The transformation is fairly simple, once in robot mode, he has a visor similar to Jazz hen he was in the first movie, only his is light blue He has yellow light's i think they are on the side of his head, but they are small. He has a big grey autobot symbol on what is his chest in robot mode. He is in the middle with my other scout's (Ransack, Dirtboss, Ejector) size wise,i have not compared them all in there alt modes, but he is definetly not as small as Scout dirtboss. Overall, i really love this guy and think he is the second best scout in the toy line, you should definetly pick him up if you have not done so already (Ejector is my favorite toy).


I give Scout DuneRunner a 9 out of a possibly 10

Another Possible Movie Cover

Well here is yet again another possible DVD Cover, i like this one alot better than the first one we saw. You cannot see it that well, but it looks like the poster with the helicopters from shangai (in the movie), and G.I. Joe is going to be releaseing there DVD around Christmas which means that Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen will not do that good with DVD's, because G.I.JOE, will probably do better due to the Christmas release



P.S. It also says that the movie is mostlikely going for a November release.

Modded Mixmaster

Well i just got back from my friend Ross' house and he is also a transformers fan who does blackwashing and paint's his transformers also. He painted my Mixmaster on the mixer thing and rubbd it off to give it a dirty affect, he also did the same to the grill, smokestacks steps,and a bit to the vent things. added black to the head and the stuff below the head. In mattalic he painted the legs and feet, unfortunetly we could not finish the arms because my brother was waiting outside for me. I'd like to thank my good friend Ross for making mixmaster look badass, i will upload pix's when ever possible. He is now awesome

Video on combining individual constructions to form the almighty Devastator

Well as i was on youtube i found a video of how to combine your individual constructicons to form devastator, he used Deluxe Rampage, FAB LongHaul, Voyager Mixmaster, Deluxe Bonecrusher, Deluxe Jungle Bonecrusher, and Voyager Demolishor. It looks pritty neat except for the fact that it does not have a head, and uses Bonecrushers in my opinion. I will try this once i get all of the constructicons wich will be soon because i am getting Demolishor from my cousin, also i will be getting Longhaul as soon as i see him, and then Scrapper when he hits shelves. As for Hightower, as there probably will not be a toy for him, i might by a Tonka toy set with a crane and end up customizeing it with a decepticon symbol, and giving it fingers. I would have to figure out a good way to get a head though.

Scout DirtBoss Review

Well earlier today i was in NYC, NY and went to the biggest Toysrus ever in timesquare in search of Jetfire... unfortunetly no luck but i was once again able to get someone small... so i got a construction vehicle who can go great with the movie constructicons by the way, dirt boss. He is pritty small and can fit into pockets like most scout's can except for Ransack, he has a very nice looking decepticon symbol on the side of his alt mode that is not visible in robot mode. His head is not very detailed at all but it is not the worst out of some of these Revenge of the Fallen toys,i really love how the forks become weapons, similar to sideswipe because in the movie his blades rest below his rists as can his, or they can stay straight. his lifter thingy can move back in forth, but the forks do not go up like in real life, he is the same exact model as the drone named Scrapper in the 2007 tie-in movie video game who is orange. It is very nice that he is in kind of a caution sign green that is rarely scene for certain sighns, he is possibley the colors he is because they wanted to make a constructicon in G1 colors, it is roughly those colors. the robot mode is pritty neat andhas quite a bit of articulation, if you are a bit eary on scouts i would definetly reccomend this guy and ejector as the scouts to get.

I give Scout Dirt Boss a 9 out of a possible 10.

Stuff about the Volt

Well there is an article "if i can say that) that basically talks about the Volt annd how efficent it is, i decided to post this because the Volt was as we all know Jolt and this is his car looking more beautiful than ever, here is the article below

"WARREN, Michigan – General Motors Corp. said Tuesday its Chevrolet Volt rechargeable electric car should get 230 miles per gallon (98 kilometers per liter) of gasoline in city driving, more than four times the current champion, the Toyota Prius.
The Volt is powered by an electric motor and a battery pack with a 40-mile (65-kilometer) range. After that, a small internal combustion engine kicks in to generate electricity for a total range of 300 miles (480 kilometers). The battery pack can be recharged from a standard home outlet.
GM is marketing the 230-mile (370-kilometer) figure following early tests using draft guidelines from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency for calculating the mileage of extended range electric vehicles.
The EPA guidelines, developed with guidance from automakers, figure that cars like the Volt will travel more on straight electricity in the city than on the highway. If a person drives the Volt less than 40 miles (65 kilometers), in theory they could go without using gasoline.
Highway mileage estimates — which are generally higher than city ones — for the Volt have yet to be released using the EPA's methodology.
"We are confident the highway (mileage) will be a triple-digit composite," GM CEO Fritz Henderson said.
If the figure is confirmed by the EPA, which does the tests for the mileage posted on new car door stickers, the Volt would be the first car to exceed triple-digit gas mileage.
EPA said in a statement Tuesday that it has not tested a Volt "and therefore cannot confirm the fuel economy values claimed by GM." The agency said it applauded "GM's commitment to designing and building the car of the future — an American made car that will save families money, significantly reduce our dependence on foreign oil and create good-paying American jobs."
GM has produced about 30 Volts so far and is making 10 a week, CEO Fritz Henderson said during a presentation of the vehicle at the company's technical center in the Detroit suburb of Warren.
Henderson said charging the volt will cost about 40 cents a day, at approximately 5 cents per kilowatt hour.
Most automakers are working similar plug-in designs, but GM could be the leader with the Volt, which is due in showrooms late in 2010.
Toyota's Prius, the most efficient car now sold in the U.S., gets 48 miles per gallon (20 kilometers per liter) of gas. It is a gas-electric hybrid that runs on a small internal combustion engine assisted by a battery-powered electric motor to save gasoline.
Although Henderson would not give details on pricing, the first-generation Volt is expected to cost near $40,000, making it cost-prohibitive to many people even if gasoline returns to $4 per gallon.
The price is expected to drop with future generations of the Volt, but GM has said government tax credits of up to $7,500 and the savings on fuel could make it cost-effective, especially at 230 miles per gallon (98 kilometers per liter).
"We get a little cautious about trying to forecast what fuel prices will do," said Tony Posawatz, GM's vehicle line director for the Volt. "We achieved this number and if fuel prices go up, it certainly does get more attractive even in the near-term generation."
Figures for the Volt's combined city/highway mileage have not yet been calculated, Posawatz said. The combined mileage will be in the triple digits as well, he said, but both combined and highway will be worse than city because the engine runs more on longer highway trips.
The mileage figure could vary as the guidelines are refined and the Volt gets further along in the manufacturing process, Posawatz said.
GM is nearly halfway through building about 80 Volts that will look and behave like the production model, and testing is running on schedule, Posawatz said.
Two critical areas, battery life and the electronic switching between battery and engine power, are still being refined, but the car is on schedule to reach showrooms late in 2010, he said.
GM is simulating tests to make sure the new lithium-ion batteries last 10 years, Posawatz said, as well as testing battery performance in extremely hot and cold climates.
"We're further along, but we're still quite a ways from home," he said. "We're developing quite a knowledge base on all this stuff. Our confidence is growing."
The other area of new technology, switching between battery and engine power, is proceeding well, he said, with engineers just fine-tuning the operations.
"We're very pleased with the transition from when it's driving EV (electric vehicle) to when the engine and generator kick in," he said.
GM also is finishing work on the power cord, which will be durable enough that it can survive being run over by the car. The Volt, he said, will have software on board so it can be programmed to begin and end charging during off-peak electrical use hours.
It will be easy for future Volt owners living in rural and suburban areas to plug in their cars at night, but even Henderson recognized the challenge urban, apartment dwellers, or those that park their car on the street might have recharging the Volt. There could eventually be charging stations set up by a third-party to meet such a demand, Henderson said.
Chrysler Group, Ford Motor Co. and Daimler AG are all developing plug-ins and electric cars, and Toyota Motor Corp. is working on a plug-in version of its gas-electric hybrid system. Nissan Motor Co. announced last month that it would begin selling an electric vehicle in Japan and the U.S. next year."

ROTF Box cover and play menu?

well there is a youtube vid. up that shows what can possibly be the play menu for the DVD of Revenge of the Fallen, i do not think this is it because it just shows one of the trailers for the movie.

Here is the Link

Also, you can view the pictures of what might just be the cover for the DVD and the special edition set by looking below, i do not really like the picture of Optimus, i would like a better cover with some explosions and stuff... but that's just me... Oh well... Enjoy :-)

Scout Ejector Review

Well I just got back from Walmart helping my mom find Jetfire for my birthday on August 15, unfortunetly we could not find anything except megatron. They did have some of Wave 4, they had Scout NightBeat (Deadend repaint), Scout Reverb (KnockOut Repaint), Scout Dunerunner, Scout Scalpel (The Doctor), and last but not least... Ejector!!!!!! My mom said i can get one of them because they are cheap so i got him. I really like his crazy face, it is very vishous and stupid looking in a good kind of way, he has 4 arms that are pritty neat, but this guy would be cool with just 2 also, infact you can keep him with just 2 arms if you wish, and then just whip out his other 2 arms and then... Walla! you have 4 arms. He turns into a toaster as you know, and it is really neat how he has the plug and also a little red switch and a black nob. He apparently has flamethrowers, they are seen in the movie when the kitchen bots are in the hallway on the way to Sams room, but not on the toy unfortunetly. He cannot stand very well, infact he usually cannot stand at all. The plug also becomes his tail in robot mode. There is not much more that i can say about this toy. He is pritty neat and i would definetly pick him up if you have not already... If you are looking for Wave 4 your best bets are for Walmart and Target By the way.
I give Scout Ejector a 8 out of a possible 10.
