Convert-A-Bots "Shockwave"

I said I only bought 1 toy at last week's Columbus Toy Show... and what a find it was.

Well... it was for me!

The other TF collector there who is also from the Central Cowlands had this.

He called it a Convert-A-Bot toy which I had never seen before.

I've seen (and almost bought) the original non-TF release and even the Shackwave figure.

But this guy?

Totally had to have him!

Thanks for the deal Phil!

He's found a home here in the Crack Den!

So I rarely ever go to any TF sites other than Tformers since they all pretty much have identical content and feed off each other.

But for some reason TFW was cached or something and I must have accidentally clicked that URL and here's something I briefly wrote about months ago and now must have one day!

I think it is really funny that this TForever place is selling these as "reissues" when in fact no official Takara Mirage has ever come out.

I find it even funnier they have the balls to ask $60+ for basically knock-offs.

If I find the ghost Mirage for $15 I might consider it. That at least looks like how I had hoped the Botcon 2007 Mirage would turn out. Alas, it was craptastic.

If Takara releases a ghost Mirage I'd consider paying the $60+ for it it.

I also came across KOTransformers where at least a few geeks have taken the time to try to document identifying the KO packaging. Kudos to them.
