some realignment or some deletion?

areaseven

Just a realignment because I want to keep the race car profile on Wheeljack. I have an extra Grimlock that I plan to customize - spoiler delete and Windveil Blue repaint to make it look like mine.

I want a' searching a week ago, and no luck finding one darn alternator. Just those dinky small ones

...

i didn't seen them for a long time after i bought mine....but there were 2 or 3 grimlocks at target last night, so maybe they had another release?

WTF?!? Optimus Prime is a Dodge Ram?

WTF!!!!!!!!!?????????!!!!!!!

HORRIBLE! That is the worst thing ever!

areaseven

Actually, no. The worst thing Hasbro did was make Optimus a gorilla and Megatron a T-Rex.

Lalo

Yea, that is pretty bad... but I think making Optimus a pick up, and a pretty boring one at that, is worse

Here's another upcoming Autobot design, rumored to be Mirage. Guess what car he transforms into.







BTW, as a common courtesy, don't "quote" the images above. We only need to see them once.

Ummmm....A Ford GT!!!

areaseven

Yeah, that was too easy. And chances are that if this Autobot is Mirage, it will be colored blue (like the original Mirage).

GhostTX

Anybody think these are going to match up to the Transformers Movie that's coming?

areaseven

Probably not. Especially since Optimus is gonna be a Dodge Ram in the Alternators lineup.

bigbadtoystore.com has the Alternators Wheeljack for $23 plus shipping. I got mine last week and am very pleased with it. Thought I'd go with the Alternator version since I have the Binaltech Grimlock.

Also, you guys might want to check your local Target stores. They have a $17 sale on Alternators this week. Who knows, you might get really lucky and find a Grimlock or a Wheeljack. Here in NC, they are VERY scarce. (As in only "ever seen one of each," and that was after I already got mine.)

I can't wait for Mirage now. My two very favorite Ford cars have been covered. Here's hoping they'll somehow use an Expedition or Explorer for Trailbreaker.

EDIT: Looks like the original images have been taken down.

I finally got one of the 05 Mustangs and I got it to the robot form but had the hardest time gettin it back to the vehicle form. My friend Heidi got it back. I dunno if I'm going to take it apart ever again. too much frustration!

Just spotted the Grimlock 2005 Mustang at WalMart for $9.92 Canadian. They had probably 50 of the things sitting there. They are the plastic 'domestic' versions but still decent. If I already didn't have the metal Japanese version, I'd have picked one up!

EDIT: Went to another WalMart in town and they had 50+ of the Grimlocks too. If you want one, head to your local WallyWorld!
