Oh Skids you poor dear you – always overlooked. Skids remains to this day perhaps the least well known and recognisable of the Autobots from the 84/85 G1 cartoon. With very brief and unmemorable appearances in only 2 episodes, even the likes of Grapple and Huffer have proven more popular and its only hardcore G1 … Continue reading Toy Review – Masterpiece Skids
Grapple. Perhaps while not the most unpopular, perhaps the least loved (does that mean the same thing?) of the 84/85 Autobot Car characters. It’s surprising since the Constructicons were so popular and Grapple was the only Autobot equivalent, but not many people really digged our resident Autobot Architect. Nevertheless, the 85’ toy was pretty cool … Continue reading Toy Review – Masterpiece Grapple
Ah Inferno. So cool yet so overlooked. A gung-ho character that was either fighting fires or fighting Cons or dealing with his psychotic superior. Inferno is not considered a fan favourite by many, but I always loved the guy! The original toy was great with lots of features and was a good size for its … Continue reading Toy Review – Masterpiece Inferno
Oh Tak/Tom, why do you not want me to pay off my house? Why do you keep releasing these overly-priced MP exclusives that I just have to have? Shame on you! If I was a stronger man I would resist, but since I’m not and have caved yet again, I may as well share with … Continue reading Toy Review – Masterpiece Thrust
Ah Shockwave, the guy that many adults – who liked TF’s but weren’t nuts about it – could never remember the name of because it sounded too much like ‘Soundwave’. To the true TF nut, he was a big purple fragger who psychologically was a mixture of Spock from Star Trek and Brute from Shakespeare … Continue reading Toy Review – Masterpiece Shockwave
Most of you young kids will be going “Hey! Big Angry Trev! That’s not Ratchet! Ratchet is a green emergency response vehicle that got killed in TF4! Who is this white dude that turns into a van?!” Well shame! Shame on you! Fie I say! THIS BE RATCHET! This is the Ratchet of old, … Continue reading Toy Review – Masterpiece Ratchet
To take a little break from cataloging action figures, I decided to catalog my Transformers Trading Cards. However its been a much bigger task than I thought Where I thought I had a few hundred, it turns out I have over a thousand! So I’ve broken my card collection into catagories such as Movieverse cards and TCG cards, and … Continue reading Transformers Collection – Toyline Cards

Since pictures of the The Transformatorium have begun to circulate on various social media around the globe, I get asked a lot of questions. Much of the time, these are questions I have been asked many times before. So to address this, I put the call out on FB and Twitter for people to put … Continue reading The Transformatorium – most popular FAQ’s
I’ve always thought Tracks was a very underrated character. Despite getting a couple of spotlight episodes in season 2 of the Generation One cartoon, he’s never really done a lot otherwise. Has never been a stand-out in any of the comics and, with the exception of a cameo in Animated, has never cropped up in … Continue reading Toy Review: Kingdom Tracks
