Transformers gets another great toy line? ....OH MY GOD!

This is a line of Transformers toys apparently based on the original series...only with actual cars as models. Look at them. The detail is incredible. The robot modes are fantastic. All Transformers fans should weep with joy in lieu of this magnificent revelation...

Oh God, I think I'm going to cry. It's so beautiful....

The Alternators series was apparently built to scale with this monstrosity, which may be the most beautiful toy ever created.

Damn, I missed this topic.

I knew about the alternators line (I look around on HLJ every so often and saw these a few months ago). Those things are awesome. I wonder who the Corvette is going to be.

And that 20th anniversery Optimus looks awesome. They just need to get a real Megatron in the states (not this tank ****, I want the handgun dammit).

Oh yeah Wy, I trust you know that they've been reissuing G1 figures, right?

Hell yeah! My brother has Thundercracker and Jazz while my dad has Prowl.

I've been meaning to get a Thundercracker for a while now (that used to be my old Internet handle actually, one of my friend IRL was Skywarp). And they need to make a remake of Megatron, but that ain't happening thanks to toy-gun laws. I'm really tempted to buy the 20th anniversary Optimus, but I think its quite expensive.

I wish they'd reissue the original Dinobots. My old ones are missing all of the pieces and are in generally crappy condition.

I did too. Then they all disappeared, although I occasionally find a piece of the terrordrome in a box or something.
