Transformers Slag -POTP




Slag (aka Slug) is the Dinobot most likely to live up to the team's bad reputation. Slag is surly, mean-spirited, nasty, and disturbingly violent, to the point where it really is a wonder he's not a Decepticon. Slag will fight anyone, over anything, at the drop of a microchip, and fight dirty. Slag enjoys nothing more than reducing his enemies to pools of molten metal with his fire-breath (and he's more than willing to include annoying Autobots on that list). He'd swim in the pools to celebrate if he could.





Transformers Slag - Hot-headed Dinobot Warrior





Slag was developed, along with his fellow Dinobots Sludge and Grimlock, after the Autobots discovered dinosaur bones in their volcanic headquarters. Inspired by the power of the prehistoric beasts, Wheeljack and Ratchet built a trio of Dinobots to add firepower to the Autobot forces. The Dinobots proved too dangerous at first, and Optimus Prime ordered Wheeljack to abandon the Dinobot project. Wheeljack continued improving the trio of titans in secret, crafting memory components that made them smarter and easier to control. When the rest of the Autobots were captured by the Decepticons at the Great Falls hydroelectric power plant, Wheeljack dispatched the Dinobots to free their comrades and destroy the Decepticons. The Dinobots succeeded in forcing a Decepticon retreat and were welcomed as members of the Autobot team.




Transformers Slag - (Motto) "I have no need for friends, even less for enemies."




One of Slag's greatest weaknesses was his hostility, and Megatron was able to use this to his advantage, turning the Dinobots against Optimus Prime. A new pair of Dinobots, Snarl and Swoop, stalled the old trio until the unstable meteor nearby exploded. Witnessing Optimus Prime valiantly save Grimlock from the explosion, the Dinobots decided that he was a good, passionate leader, and turned against Megatron as his squad escaped.

Slag was sent with the four other Dinobots to an airport with Decepticons in the vicinity, despite his dislike of everything. Breaking into their secret hideout with Snarl, Slag then melted Starscream's null-ray, to the Seeker's horror, and when he was dogpiled by Thrust and Thundercracker, threw them into a plane. When the Dinobots carelessly reverted to robot mode, an explosion knocked them down. Back at the base, Ratchet, Hoist and Wheeljack were able to repair them after countless hours of work. But after the Dinobots heard Optimus send them out for another mission, they had enough. Slag was sick of taking orders and decided to take orders from Grimlock only, and the Dinobots left the Ark. However, when Carly informed the Dinobots that the Autobots were low on cybertonium, Slag refused to help out, but Grimlock dragged him to Cybertron anyway, since they would be away from the Autobots. When they reached Cybertron, Slag rammed Shockwave and then tried to turn him into a chew-toy. For this, the logic-driven Decepticon altered the Dinobots' memory circuits and put them to work in the Cybertonium Pit. Two squishies ended up saving them.

During the Battle of Autobot City, the Dinobots battled Devastator. Slag was the only one that managed to get a hit on Devastator, ramming into him at full speed. After evacuating Autobot City in the wake of Galvatron's attack, the Dinobots refused to leave, and Kup was forced to push Slag into the ship. Possibly to avoid being killed, Kup told the Dinobots about one of his encounters with an Ick-Yak. The Dinobots, along with Kup and Hot Rod, were shot down and crashed on Quintessa. The Dinobots searched for the two Autobots, with Grimlock believing they were close by, but Slag disagreed. They started hurling insults, and things might have turned violent, had Wheelie not appeared and pointed them in the right direction. He and Sludge broke down a door as Sharkticons prepared to execute the Autobots, giving a belated "Excuse me!" to a Quintesson prosecutor—who was being crushed under the combined weight of Slag, Sludge, and the door. Later, Slag literally burned the butt of a god.

The Dinobots were bathing in Cybertron and offered to let Grimlock join their fishing game. Grimlock politely declined, and later Slag declared that "Grimlock no fun" when Grimlock had his miraculous intelligence boost.

Slag was one of the Primitives who were called by Primacron's assistant to battle Primacron's newest creation, Tornedron. When Grimlock was believed destroyed when Trypticon crashed on him, Slag took command of the Dinobots. He came up with an incredibly innovative strategy—lead the Dinobots away until he got a better idea. Hun-Gurrr thought it was the best idea yet. After Tornedron dispatched the other Primitives, Slag and the Dinobots attacked him, only to have their energy sucked from them. Fortunately, Grimlock survived Trypticon's weight and destroyed Tornedron, fixing everything.

Prime Wars Trilogy Cartoons

When Megatron and his team arrived in the Primal Swamp, Slug and the other Dinobots attacked the trespassers. Slug repeatedly attacked Windblade, but she managed to keep him off his guard using her speedy flight. Undeterred, Slug merged with his fellow Dinobots to become Volcanicus.The Dinobots later separated, but were taken aback when Grimlock agreed to join Megatron's group. Unable to agree with the decision, Slug and the other Dinobots departed. Unfortunately, they were found by Overlord and Rodimus Cron, who attacked and soundly defeated them. Unable to move, Slug could only watch as Rodimus killed Sludge and departed with Overlord, leaving him and the others to mourn the loss of their own. He was later severely weakened by the spark-draining power of Megatronus's doomsday weapon. Fortunately, he ultimately survived and he and the others reunited with Grimlock, collectively mourning Sludge.


NOTE: Slag have been renamed Snarl, because of the offensive meaning of the word slag in some countries, or Slug to differentiate him from fellow Dinobot Snarl.

The Autobots and Decepticons use Prime Masters to wield the incredible powers of the most legendary bots in the universe: the Primes. Prime Masters carry the spark of a Prime, allowing them to share a Prime's godlike ability with other bots. How will the fire-breathing warrior Dinobot Slug wield this epic power? Anything is possible and everything is at stake when the Power of the Primes is unleashed!

TOY HAUL: ROBOTECH Invid Shock Trooper

ROBOTECH Invid Shock Trooper







This is just one of many Invid Shock Trooper I had in my collection. I notice my studio was getting a little pack with figures so I decided to let this one go. Little sad to see it go but it was just collecting dust.

This figure was opened but never cut from it's inside packaging. It also had the original instruction and also some stickers. On the good side I still have two of the Invid Shock Trooper figures but loose, not in there box. A lot more fun. Here are a few pick of the figure before I parted with it.




Thanks

Toys R Us Canada Survives for Now!

Toys R Us - Richmond














As U.S. Toys R Us stores are closing, Toys R Us Richmond B.C. is still up and running for now until the land get redeveloped. Hopefully the ones around the Greater Vancouver area will still survive and relocate Toys R Us somewhere in Richmond with ample parking.




New Development for Toys R Us/ Lansdowne Area



It's really sad, I had a lot of good memories and fun times Lansdowne Mall not just Toys R Us. In ruffly 7 yrs from now is will all be gone. I just have to enjoy it until it all gets redeveloped. But I'm Happy Toys R Us Canada is still Standing.










I'm going to miss looking at the Toys R Us sign. So much excitement just before I enter. It's a relaxing place for me.

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

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.
