There are certain TF's that were never repainted, reissued, or turned into G2 characters ... these carry such a high value, and Wheeljack is one of them. He's awesome.

I don't like these sets. They're from China, so most likely, they're bootlegged. If they state they're in english, it could easily be brittish voice actors for the Hong Kong viewers.

If you don't mind watching these off of your PC, I have all the episodes (DivX encoded dvd rips) on 4 or 5 dvds.

CONFIRMED PRIME LIST
1. Monk - red, yellow eyes
2. Monk - red, blue eyes
3. Monk - black
4. Reno - red, yellow eyes
5. Suba - red, yellow eyes
6. e39 - red, blue eyes
7. (vacant)
8. (vacant)
9. (vacant)
10. (vacant)

I know Hammy, Reno, and Suba would buy more if spots HAD to be filled ... but there are 4 open spots for willing takers.

Right now, top dibs to those last 4 spots goes to:

1. Nevets (haven't heard from him all day)
2. Reno (offered to buy 2, first)
3. Hammy
4. Suba
5. e39

just step up and claim your spot.

ack, did such a thing exist? i would hate to get these to find that the voices aren't what we got here. divx rips would work, but i'd like to get a nice dvd set including movie. the US releases are just absurdly priced, if they can be found even..

edit > "Language : Original US English DD5.1", can i trust that? i suppose i can contact someone who has bought one..

:hs: it is a good sign that these ended right were the US series ended.

Some TF G1's go past "The Rebirth" which is a dead give away that it's garbage.
