It’s been a few months since the last installment, but we have another entry in the ever popular Transformer Fan Interviews! In this latest interview with Aussie TF collectors we are talking to Trent, a good bloke who is always willing to help a mate out with a sought toy, or provide some online sparring … Continue reading Transformer Fan Interview – Trent
With the Transformers Kingdom toy line hitting the stores we are seeing a shift away from the Micromasters that have made up a decent part of the Siege and Earthrise toylines. Whilst some may be happy for this, others will miss not being able to complete the sets of these classic (if obscure) characters in their updated forms. Luckily for us, … Continue reading Toys Review – Micron Micromasters
This month – January 2021 – marks 20 years of me being an adult collector of Transformers. It also marks the 20 year anniversary of my first (very short lived) marriage. And the two are not unconnected. As a kid we didn’t have a great deal of money, though I never went without a … Continue reading How 20 Years of being an Adult Collector began

As a multiverse collector this is the case with a lot of G1-originated characters for me, but there are characters that I nearly always get and Arcee is one of them. Why? Not sure. Maybe because she was such a well known character … Continue reading Toy Review – EX-01 Nicee
Transformer fans had mixed reactions when we saw the return of the Micromasters a couple of years ago. On the one hand it was great to get new versions of characters we hadn’t seen since 89/90. On the other their joints were often weak and their combined weapons modes were more often than not fairly … Continue reading Toy Review – WFC-GS12 Greasepit
It’s become an accepted fact now that the Generations Selects line is going to be part of the Transformers toyline for the foreseeable future. Whilst annoying that one can never simply walk into a store and purchase one of these figures, at least they are still easier to obtain than store-exclusive figures (most often only … Continue reading Toy Review – WFC-GS11 Exhaust
Today at the New York Toyfair the world was treated to the teaser trailer for the new Transformers cartoon trilogy coming to Netflix later this year – War For Cybertron: Siege. Even though this has been touted as ‘Anime’ we are getting a CGI cartoon like the Power of the Prime’s trilogy rather than some … Continue reading Transformers Siege trailer: Character breakdown and analysis
MULTIVERSE SKY LYNX GALLERY Please note: The photo set I had built at my last farm was destroyed in a move, so while I have added photo’s of Earthrise Sky Lynx to this gallery, he will not be properly shot like the other three figures until I build a new one. Individual Figure Pic’s … Continue reading Multiverse Sky Lynx Toys Gallery
