It brings back alot of fond

It brings back alot of fond memories. These were during the times, when getting a "japanese robot toy" was next to impossible as a kid in the states. They are just not popular at all, nor easily assessable. However there is still a small nitch market out there that cries for them. Price is another issue. Who would pay for them to be shipped and what form of payment would they accept?

They served their purpose and i am glad they are being reviewed.

I remember you brought that

I remember you brought that set to the first summit I attended. When I saw it I immediately thought of my little dude back home.

Hmm...

Hmmm...so that's where the idea of Hasbro's Energon Starscream came from.

Hmmm...it's a R.O. spawned from a K.O.,very cheap but clever.

Hmmm...corporate bootleggers.

Illegal or not, they just keep on ripping each other's hot pockets in the devil's kitchen don't they }>?

It would be interesting

It would be interesting to see you review Energon Starscream & make a comparison w/ your bootleg valk in the near future.

I would be honored

I would be honored to sir,

but the thing is the toy is MIA with all the toys, relics and 80s/90s pop junk like old issues of TV Guide, and Isaac Asimov's Science Fiction Magazine, Tandy Computers,etc. that I got stashed up in my attic.

I did this to give my room some airspace.

I'll have to get back to you on that when I find it in my attic.

Peace,
