Thinking that MASK is a pretty finite line, and I'll be ok collecting this new version. Then remember I am buying the Ramen Toy ones that are currently 50% brand new toys not released before. Plus, these bastards are bound to make repaints because that's the modern toy industry.

Some people may call them tat, but I can't wait to get my hands on Swapticons! Chris is the first person I've seen showing off how they work. Check out his video. #Transformers #BeastWars

The energy I bring to Bluesky.

A pint-sized Percy for your Timeline. #Transformers

2012 me was such a buzz kill. #Transformers

Got some more of these #BeastWars medallions. Specifically, I got the best Beast Wars medallion and Rattrap. #Transformers

I am a grown man.

Transformers SWAPTICONS! Jungle Mission 5-Pack (Beast Wars, kinda) Shares etc appreciated! youtu.be/-vz0ypoZhnY

Beast Machines Longhorn! No bullshit, he’ll steer you right. This Moo-ximal is a truly excellent little toy. Normally I’m of the opinion that diecast adds absolutely nothing to a Transformer (heracy, I know) but that metal nose ring just hits different. Horn flipping attack is lots of fun

Kotobukiya Zoids Buster Tortoise I'm impressed with the amount of additional detail. The rotating turret, the retractable head, the troop transport doors. With Takara making their own improved Zoids kits its difficult to know what to choose. Next is Red Horn.

Machine Robo Rescue Yellow Gears K-Boy A simplified version of the K-Boy that doesn't convert to robot mode. Unlike the larger version, it does not have working buttons either. The K-Boy were little robot pals for the kids of MRR and were used to order the robos to combine or communicate with base.

Looks like we'll be getting concrete information about #Transformers Cyberworld next week. Please try and filter out any dumbasses who throw up a bunch of whiney complaints about not liking a line, which is clearly made for children. news.tfw2005.com/2025/02/25/t...

Unexpected news to wake up to. Roberto Orci played a role in the resurgence in mainstream popularity of Transformers and Star Trek, two of my revered franchises. He was also involved with bringing #Transformers Prime to fruition. R.I.P. news.tfw2005.com/2025/02/25/t...

Remember #Transformers fans, Lil'formers disappeared because its creator is a massive cunt.

The Transformers Classics line will be 20 years old next year. That (crumbles) can’t (to) be (dust) right?

Masterpiece Gattai DK-2 Guard Is a character srill considered obscure if you own three different versions of it? This, Generations Selects and G1 Ironhide Project Black. It's a straight recolour of Masterpiece Ironhide, including all the same accessories. #Transformers

Playskool Big Adventures Mototron Mototron's thing is that he's a huge jerk until he realises it's not his superior speed and toughness that matters, its controlling those abilities and using them to help people. His colours bear a resemblance to G2 Sideswipe. #Transformers

New #Transformers post!

Takara Earthspark Warrior Thrash When reviewing Hasbro's two Thrash toys, I said that while the deluxe's colours were more accurate, I felt the warrior class was the superior representation. Takara have evidently agreed with me as their release is the best bits of each toy. #Transformers

A lil' spider guy for my Tarantulas shelf. #BeastWars #Transformers

Here's a random Terrorsaur figure I picked up. #Transformers #BeastWars

FOR SALE: Set of 3 Transformers Double Targetmasters from 1988. Excellent condition, complete. One of the Nebulans has a broken bit (see pic). £60 incl postage. UK only. Please reply to this post if you’re interested!

TFNation has supported Toy-Fu's efforts to raise money for Mary's Meals for several years. But we aren't the only ones to do so. Pete from Transformers The Show is raising funds running a half marathon in May, If you've pennies to spare, the donation link is in the next post

Dark of the Moon Dualor Released for Dark of the Moon with repaints of the other Classics Minicon Dinobots. He's a homage of G1 Grimlock. He's tough, intelligent, and bristling with armaments. He is, however, small, slow, and clumsy, which prevents him from being a massive threat. #Transformers

I felt a large part of my remit as a BBC Radio Comedy Producer was to bring the next generation of UK writing talent (of any age). The steady attrition of BBC Radio Drama in recent times is an ominous sign that the BBC is losing sight of its essential mission. www.theguardian.com/tv-and-radio...

It has begun! Lack of space means I went up to the loft & grabbed 8 items for sale. They're on eBay if you fancy a look (seller name 'tikgnat') Will be listing more in the coming weeks, cool stuff which has been sitting in my loft for years, but would be better appreciated by someone else.

2023 repost p10! Don't be fooled, he's got intentions. #Maccadam #Beastwars #pokemon #pokeformers
