Transformers G1 Re Issue Ravage/Rumble

What better way to anticipate the arrival of  G1 ReIssues of Ravage and Rumble than by working out while watching some old G1 TF's episodes?



The card came In pretty good shape but I had no intentions of keeping these sealed. 


Two things of beauty!


Much like 1985 Snake Eyes ,Ravage was a Transformers figure I always wanted as a kid.Thanks to Hasbro's  re-issue ,I'm finally able to  hold this fantastic replica in-hand ! Since I never owned an original ,I'm not sure how true to it this version is. It's gotta be damn close,tho.




Rumble...or..Frenzy ...whatever you want to call him, Is  pretty cool  ,too. He kind of reminds me of those old  80's Transformer watches . I think they share similarities In their transformations. What I love most about both of these figures,besides the fact that they transform Into awesome little cassette tapes , Is their chromed out weaponry.






How glorious are these little cassette tapes!?!


And now ,the obligatory Snake Eyes with Ravage pics!



Timber got jealous and wanted In on the action ,hence....


This should  be sold as a three pack somewhere down the line. It would probably sell out at 20 bucks a pop and then be listed on ebay by scalpers for $100 . $75 loose :(


Crap!Now I need Soundwave!

    There are subtle differences, but it's pretty close.

The other day ,my better half and I had the chance to traverse our local mall early In the day.I hate going to malls at peak hours or on the weekends.The crowds are just too damn cool for me.Long story short,our mall now has a toy store! I couldn't believe my eyes.From a far It looked like It was going to be some artsy fartsy place with educational toys ,wooden blocks and model kits,but no!This place had pretty much everything collectors go for nowadays.The name of the store Is "Go!,Toys and Games" and I can honestly say that I've never heard of It before.Everything was a dollar or two extra ,but that's not too bad considering how ridiculously expensive modern toys are In hobby and toy shops these days.I really hope this place sticks around. There Is a nice mix of everything.Marvel Legends,Star Wars  to blind bags to Funko figs.On top of that there are tons of board games   and books. WTF? Yes! 3 3/4 Marvel Legends!!!!!Not alot thou

My last "Merry Christmas To Me" post was going to be of Marvel Legends Spider-Man animated cartoon series figure that I thought I was getting a great deal on. It turns out the figure was a bootleg. $30 down the drain and a fake Spider Man figure in the trash. I didn't even bother trying to get a refund from the seller. I'll chalk it up to a loss and keep it moving. So today I figured I'd  treat myself to something dope in the toy aisles at my local Walmart and found this!  I'm not sure if this is a reissue or what but It was the last one on the pegs and so I grabbed it. Now I can't get that damned theme song out of my head.
