Shockwaves 5th Transformation mode; Airplane

As requested, a photo of Shockwave in his rare 5th mode. Rumors that this form gives Shockwave great crouch pain is greatly exaggerated.

Cat in Toy Vault

Bart's testing my patience now, he just wedged himself between some toy boxes deep inside the Toy Museum's storage vaults.

Cat Fight and Chase

'Smokey' the neighbors cat, being clever hides between chair and tree looking up at baby squirrels in the tree.


Dan being curious sends out Bart to say hi to Smokey.

Some whining ensues, and then a fast passed chase across the property that i was unable to capture with film.


At the other end of the house now, Bart fluffed up to tough guy mode. I guess I give the win to Bart, Smokey ran like a coward.

Transformers Animated; Target Shockwave

Its always strange that Target exclusives are discounted before they are even given a chance to sit at regular price. Not strange enough for me though, I'll take the good deal!


I am almost done watching TF Animated season 1, so I don't know Shockwave's story yet, but if he is a spy, he has a pretty good disguise. Why didn't they just give him a monocle?! That might fly with the way this show is going so far.


I like the robot form of Shockwave the best in this toy. He has good form, and could be used to fight a 12" GI Joe with equal standing (hmm things to come?).


The tank is okay, but talk about pain in the ass to transform. I had to watch several You Tube reviews to figure him out.


The crane mode (whoops I forgot to extend the hook), is better than the tank. It looks like a purple dog going fishing.

Infil-Traitor Stop-motion practice

Most warriors practice in front of a Chicken Platter right?

First stop motion I have done in a long time. I need to anchor my camera a little better so its not so jumpy. A better camera would help with the light issues. Xevoz toys are perfect for stop motion animation. They have plenty of solid joints, weapons, characters, and are easily posable.

Watch Collection; Episode 19: Autobot Watch

I am really surprised Transformer watches have not made the come back yet. Back in the day, if you were wearing one of these things, you were royalty.


I bet wearing Scorpia, a fake gold plated Transformer watch, would gain you emperor status!


Sorry Watch, didn't mean to wash you with a Brillo Pad.


I hate taking photos of toys that are shinny, my flash tears right through them and back at me.


I have heard in some circles that this is his 'spaceship' mode, but I'm not seeing it. Looks like he fell over.

Hall of Heroes Flint

One of the stranger habits of a GI Joe figure addict is to start buying the same figure with slight modifications in different packaging.


Hasbro really knows how to take advantage of fans.


I think I will display this one in the third Flint shrine, next to the second General Hawk display case, by the HISS Tank garage, under the Toy Museum's sacred chambers.
