The Fallen ['Fallen' only on the packaging] is hefty [and by hefty i also mean back-heavy] and damn evil-looking. It's the most black I've seen on a Transformer in a long time.

The flaming billboards actually come in a separate bubble and can be attached/detached to the back, but do not need to come off for transformation. THey do look like they will pop off and not snap off if the figure is accidentally dropped. I do not, of course, plan to test this. icon-fire.gif

Transformation, incidentally, is also simple but effective -- perhaps not as much as Cheetor given the ad-hoc altmode on this one [Don made it look good though]. turn waist, fold legs, fold billboards out into tread housings and wrap around legs, fold arms round back and make them cannon things.

I like how his 'fists' swivel so you can point the would-be fist holes vertically instead of horizontally as he has them packaged.

tf classics fever!!!

Saw these up close and personal and I'm pretty much caught up in the TF fever. Hope to get these soon..

TF Gurus, what and who is "The Fallen"? Is he part of the movie? G1 TF? Japanese line?

I finally got my FIRST TRANSFORMER!!!

This used to be at retail worth $79.99 I think... Then, the price cut to $50.00... Then another price slash to $35.00!!! Now that's worth getting! So, that's exactly what I did!!!

congrats bro Lance..that's really wise!.....

here's my TF titanium...







guys...i was warned not to open these due to loose joints....
now i can tell..im not disappointed...































thanks

Yam, the Fallen appeared in the Transformers comics of Dreamwave (the now bankrupt publishing company started way back by overhyped artist Pat Lee). When Dreamwave started, it literally jumpstarted a revival of Transformers Gen 1 craze due to the great story and art in the comics.

Anyway the Fallen first appeared in the War Within comics of Transformers (its a 3 volume comic series based on the TFs time on Cybertron before going to Earth), in the second story arc entitled the Dark Ages - because this is a period where Prime and Megatron both disappread into a portal and the Autobots and Decepticons become fragmented into factions - The Fallen appeared suddenly with a plan for a mystic ritual using 4 uniue Tfs: if i remember right they were: Jetfire, Grimlock, and Hotspot and Blitwing. In the end Primus was the one who dealt with him.

Congrats on your Transformers guys

Expect more toys this year, and wow that's a very nice Rodimus Prime, if I do say so myself

Thanks for the info Doc Mike! and congrats on the Titanium series TFs Bestman. They look very very nice

Yam, just to add to what Mike said...

The Fallen is supposedly one of the first 12 Transformers created by Primus (Cybertron). However, he sided with Unicron and was banished with him master. This is what the profile written in the Dreamwave profile books.

Hope this helps

Congrats Bestman on the titanium TFs i just wanted to say I'm also happy with the Titanium TF's line but as Protoform-S told me before you have to be careful with them to avoid paint chipping. He's right by the way, my Jetfire had a paint chip on the area above the chest due to repetitive pushing of the head downwards while transforming to jet mode. And some TFs have loose joints like Megatron, War within Prime, Jetfire etc. But i'm most happy with the others like Thundercracker, Starscream and Rodimus. Their colors are eye candy mostly but what the heck it works for me and i'm glad i started this line.

congratulations in your hauls, Ken, bestman and lance...

hope you join us at Cybertron Philippines as we take an in-depth look on key personalities in the world of the transformers. February's TF of the month is Starscream... we are currently featuring him so we can get to know him better before the premiere of Transformers the Movie this year...
