He-Man - Vintage Masters of The Universe

He-Man - Vintage Masters of The Universe 




My father was a toy photographer before I was. He also loved general photography. My father had all a lot of equipment, my brother and I would go with him around Vancouver to take some pictures and help him set up. He bought us some MOTU and took some photos of them. I found these pictures in storage.

TOY HAUL: Transformers Classics Smokescreen.

TOY HAUL:  Transformers Classics Smokescreen. 





Transformers Flashback












After only a few month of hunting I found Smokescreen used in his original package and instructions. I even remember him in stores and it was really hard to find him. I guess I was lucky, he's in really good condition. the only thing I don't like about these figure is that some of them from factory have sticky paint but these in my opinion these are still awesome figures. Here are just a few pictures of smokescreen, more to come.

Transformers Jumpstarters Topspin and Twintwist - Takara 1984

Transformers Jumpstarters - Topspin and Twintwist











Amazon Link:





This is another set of Transformers I got when I was a kid. Twintwist I got for Christmas and Topspin I got from a friend. Topspin received a lot of damage from my action figure wars and he was already badly damaged when my friend gave him to me. Twintwist still can jump but Topspin is too badly damaged.

Enjoy the pics


BIGMANILA




Brothers


Transformers Jumpstarters Topspin and Twintwist





















The Jumpstarters were sold boxed at the $6 price point; Topspin transforms into a futuristic Cybertronian hovercraft-type thing, while Twin Twist's alternate mode is a double-drilling tank. Both Jumpstarters are notable for their autotransforming feature. Their alternate modes are spring-loaded, and held into place by a catch. Equipped with pull-back motors, they race forward when released, tripping the catch, which allows internal springs to snap the robots' bulky legs into place, which are balanced so as to leave the robot standing upright on its rather broad feet.





Transformers Jumpstarters Twintwist and Topspin




















The Jumpsarters




The Jumpstarters are Topspin and Twin Twist, impulsive warriors with the ability to transform from vehicle to robot in less than half a second.







Topspin

Transformers Jumpstarter Topspin 




Facing off against Decepticons isn't nearly enough of a challenge for Topspin. He'd rather pit himself against Nature itself. No mountain is tall enough, no river treacherous enough to give him pause. Alone against rough terrain, be it on land or in the sea, is where this Wrecker's fuel pump really gets going. Though he loves the challenge he's not fixated on conquering new terrain, he simply enjoys pitting himself against it. As he says, "The thrill is in the journey."

As Jumpstarters, Topspin and his brother Twin Twist can transform between modes in a fraction of an instant, significantly faster than most Transformers.

Sometimes he is partnered with the Titan Master Freezeout.


Twintwist

Transformers Jumpstarter Twintwist







Twin Twist will sink his drills into anything, tearing it to shreds at the smallest excuse. He loves violence and fighting as much as your average Decepticon, full of fury and the desire to show off just how much destruction he's capable of doing. Optimus Prime sometimes worries about his uncontrollable nature, but no one can argue that he isn't an effective warrior. It's probably not much of a surprise that he fits right in with the Wreckers.

As a Jumpstarter, Twin Twist and his brother Topspin can transform between modes in a fraction of an instant (.4 of a second), significantly faster than most Transformers. He is sometimes partnered with the Titan Master Flameout.

Twintwist Transformation

 Twintwist -Cybertronic Twin-drill Tank





Twin Twist transforms into a Cybertronic twin-drill tank via a very simple, one-step process. His vehicle mode features a pull-back motor which propels him forward; after a short distance, a latch on his body releases his spring-loaded legs, and the weight and momentum flips Twin Twist up onto his robot mode feet.

Topspin Transformation 

Topspin - Cybertronic Amphibious Vehicle





Topspin transforms into some kind of amphibious Cybertronic vehicle. He features a pull-back motor in vehicle mode that propels him forward on smooth surfaces; after a short run the latch that keeps his spring-loaded legs releases, causing him to flip forward and into upright robot mode.

Brawn Takara Transformers G1 1983

Brawn Takara Transformers G1 1983








Amazon Link:





Brawn Takara Transformers G1 1983 was my first ever Transformer, given to me by my Lola (Grandmother). I was extremely happy to finally get a Transformer! Unfortunately, one time when I was trying to transform Brawn, I broke his right arm. I was still happy he was able to survive all this time in storage and so many moves. Enjoy the photos and don't be shy to share and comment.



BIGMANILA





Brawn - Transformer and Roll Out







Brawn - Transform






















Brawn - Takara 1983






















Brawn, the Autobots' demolitions expert, is amazingly strong for his size. Due to his small stature, he often attempts to overcompensate by playing up his macho personality. He loves a challenge, be it rugged off-roading or charging headlong at foes several times his size. He has a lot of chutzpah, and a somewhat sarcastic sense of humor ever at the ready. Due to his machisimo, he sometimes looks down on noncombatant Autobots.




Brawn - Rubsign







The Generation 1 Mini-spies were the first toys to debut with rubsigns. They came packaged with Mini Vehicles in early 1985. The faction of Mini-spy remained hidden until someone opened up the package and rubbed the rubsign, revealing an Autobot or Decepticon insignia.








Brawn - Rubsign Autobot







In addition to his great strength, Brawn is also so tough as to be almost indestructible. Almost.
Sometimes he is an ancient Titan Master, and sometimes he is partnered with the Nebulon Muscles as a Headmaster.

Max Sterling - Robotech / Macross by Matchbox 1985

Max Sterling -  Matchbox 1985









Amazon Link:




I found the Max Action Figure on Craigslist. This guy was selling his whole collection of Robotech Figures. Max Action Figure was really hard to pose, and had very loose elbow joints, but overall, a good figure. After nearly 25 years, I'm happy to add him to my collection.


BIGMANILA






Maximilian Sterling



Orphaned during the Global War, Max nonetheless had an avid interest in flying and military technology, although he originally had no interest in joining the military. At the launch festivities for the SDF-1, Max and his friend Ben Dixon found themselves caught up in the opening battle of the first Robotech War. 






ROBOTECH DEFENCE FORCE - Max Sterling























Max Sterling - ROBOTECH RDF






















Rescued in the midst of the first fight against Zentraedi forces, Max earned his first ride in a veritech fighter. Many of the civilians stranded aboard the battle fortress, Max volunteered for the effort to rebuild Macross City inside the ship. Due to boredom, both he and Ben Dixon volunteered for the SDF-1's military forces and began training as veritech pilots several months later.






Robtech - Max all Geared Up





From early on, Max was recognised as a true aviation prodigy, a pilot with some of the most natural flying skills and instincts. His potential earned the attention of Roy Fokker, the SDF-1's air group commander, who then assigned both Max and Ben to the newly-created Vermillion group under the command of Lt. Rick Hunter.

Max wasted little time distinguishing himself, as he notched nine confirmed kills in his first combat sortie in his trademark blue VF-1. But even his impressive skills were put to an ultimate test of survival during a reconnaissance mission that the Vermillion Group undertook to scout Zentraedi targets.





Max and Miriya























His fighting prowess eventually gained the attention of Zentraedi Quadrano ace Miriya Parino, who then sought him out in a furious battle that found its way into the streets of Macross City. To Max, his defeat of the Zentraedi force's finest pilot made him marked for death by Miriya, who micronized herself in an effort to find him. After several near encounters, Max and Miriya finally confronted each other in a video game clash. The result was the same as before, and Miriya then tried to kill him during what Max thought was their first date.





Max and Dana





















Defeated once again, Miriya despaired of life itself. But incredibly, the two rivals fell completely in love and were quickly married. The union of Max and Miriya became an unlikely symbol of peace and understanding during the First Robotech War.





Robotech - Sterling Family





Daughter of Max and Miriya Sterling, Dana is not only the first child born from a union between the two races, but she is also the first child born from the womb of a clone. Dana is among the first graduates of the Robotech Military Academy founded in the aftermath of the First Robotech War.






Max Sterling - The Big Escape






BACK OF PACKAGE



Max Sterling

Age: 19

Rank: Lieutenant

Max Sterling is one of the many young men from Macross City who enlist in the RDF after his life was disrupted by the interstellar war with the Zentraedi. Distinguishing himself in his early training period, he is assigned to Rick Hunter's newly-formed combat squad. Max easily becomes the most promising pilot of a new generation of Robotech Aces. His technique is pure perfection when it comes to flying and fighting in the Veritech Fighter.




ROBOTECH - Rick Hunter - Max Sterling






 Max was recognized as a true aviation prodigy, and his potential earned the attention of Roy Fokker, the SDF-1’s air group commander, who then assigned both Max and Ben to the newly created Vermillion group under the command of Lt. Rick Hunter. In the course of the war, Max's skills were put to an ultimate test of survival during a reconnaissance mission that the Vermillion Group undertook to scout Zentraedi targets. After escaping capture by Zentraedi under the command of Breetai, he infiltrated Breetai's battleship in his Veritech and disguised it with a Zentraedi uniform. Max then helped Rick and Ben pilot a Zentraedi battlepod back to the SDF-1.
