Terence Ho since 1981(The Last Ronin)

Aloha folks. Thanks to a demanding work schedule....... yeah, excuses, excuses. I bet you are ready for some pics and not so much in whether I care for this figure or not. Anyhow, let's get started! Boxing and contents:       Here is the link to the explanation to the comic: https://tfwiki.net/wiki/Legends_Comic:_Bonus_Edition_Vol._56 Nice box art from Takara like usual. The comic is a throwback to the episode "Face of Nijika." Nijika's body is so similar to that of Windblade. Ramhorms conversion to his new mode is explained as well as Perceptor's reason of becoming a headmaster. Microscope mode (Alt mode)     Neat. We finally get his updated microscope mode. You can look through the lens though it's fairly blurry. You can use his magnifier to pretend as you can zooming or zooming out while examining your headmaster or whatever you are examining. You can examine other headmasters of course I was a little ...

Play it safe folks! Just sharing but here's something my brother got me for Christmas. It's the Transformers: Fall of Cybertron Dinobots t-shirt. Pretty cool shirt. Thank God for this cool looking shirt. Once again folks. Stay out of trouble. Go with God dudes and dudettes. Laters and take care.

HobbyLinkJapan allows you to hold the item for 2 months allowing you to stockpile more figures within 2 months to save on shipping. 2 months was up and Metroplex (Metroflex in G1 Japan), was shipped to my house. Here are the pics: So you can see that it is 1/4 the bed size.

With the help and addition of 3rd party companies, G1 classic collectors can now add TrailCutter to round up the 1984 ark crew. Hoist was a much needed addition to pair up with Grapple to re-live the master builder legacy during the second season of the G1 series. With that said, let's get on with the positive and the negatives. (Sorry about some of the pics, I shot this in the day light as I still don't really have a light set-up). What I like about them: -Hoist and Trailcutter has nice color schemes. They even got Trailcutters stripes down right. -Joints are very tight and durable. Waist can swivel. -Fairly easy to transform. Did not need instructions at all to figure their transformations. -Each comes with an IDW comic from which their designs were based on. -Trailcutter and Hoist has a lot of ports where yo...
