For your frustrations of a purely Transformers related nature!

-------------------------------

The jaw of my Device Label Cheetor just snapped off.

If you're trying to convince me to handle / play with my Transformers you're going the wrong way about it

I think Gok has been mistreating his Transfomers again Mine still has it's jaw as well as Tigatron

My transformers-related frustrations? Waiting for that box to arrive in the mail and waiting for the figures to be released once images have been posted (including prototype images).

Yes, I'm impatient and hooked on this plastic crack. Once you have those figures in your hand though, there is nothing sweeter.

Just brought a replacement RtS Wreckgar as the handle bars on my old one snapped off. A fairly common occurance apparently.
First transformation and one handlebar has a strass fracture up the brown plastic and the other is beginning to crack

Sigh, just had another Predator missile launcher break. Dam things are so fragile. Well thats another childhood toy that needs replacing if I want to display it.

As I've always pointed out: "Go-Bots beat Transformers to market, arriving five months before the robots in disguise."

Can everyone who's ever said GoBots/Machine Men were a rip-off of Transformers please keep their mouths shut for the next thirty years?

[Megatran]

So which toy line did GoBots / Machine Men rip off then?

[GoktimusPrime]

Popy/Bandai's Machine Robo.

Although I wouldn't say "rip off." Machine Robo is to Go-Bots what Diaclone and Microman is to Transformers.
