Oh man I don't know if I can hold out anymore. I might not have the willpower to stay away, I am truely scared. Just when I thought I wouldn't buy anymore, they have to make this batch so fantastic I can barely hold myself back. In case you havn't guessed, which you prolly havn't, I'm talking Transformers. You know back in my high school days I became a fiend for awhile, being that I really liked the Beast Wars/Machines shows. And with the return of vehicle Transformers it was a buying shmorgasbourd. It ended when the current show began, Transformers Armada. I bought one toy from that and then I went cold turkey. No problems the toys weren't as cool anymore, and they kept getting uglier. But you see then three new special TFs came out. They are like licenced vehicles created with tons of detail, and you's say wow that's a slick looking car model, and then BAM they are also kick ass Transformers, and the robot modes are modelled after characters from the original Transformers.

First we have Smokescreen, a Subaru Impreza WRC 2003, in car mode and he looks really slick with his doors and trunk that can be opened. Then he can transform in to his superfly robot mode, and here we can see him with the original toy of this character.

Then we move on to Sideswipe, a Dodge Viper SRT-10, in his candy apple red car mode, and with workable doors and hood . The he transforms to be a crazy robot warrior :-P.

Ahh but you see I've saved the best for last, for this is now considered the best transformer ever made. Yes it is an Optimus Prime figure, he's 11 inches tall (roughly), looks exactly like he did in the TV show, Movie, and even the old comics. For the first time in a toy of this accuracy and detail to the show, he is fully transformable to his truck mode, which is also perfect. For the first time in a transformable toy like this, Optimus comes complete with the autobot matrix of leadership,(seen in the movie), which can be removed and the toy can evcen hold it. This toy has so many details I can't mention them all I can do is send you to the image gallery, because its just such a cool toy.

I know I'm prolly like the only person I know who could get excited about this, but they are just soo cool. And that Optimus costs quite the pretty penny, but ahh soo cool. SO yeah if I even get money again maybe I'll have to splurge and get one of these bad boys, they'd look slick on one of my shelves. And of course I'd play with them all the time. :-D. All for now laters.
