Is It Conceivable? – Part 3
Iga Pipes, Hasbro and Kabaya Huffer
Welcome to the jungle. This is no place for collectors who dwell in the safe confines of AFA cases or between walls of MISB Japanese Transformers. The minibot collector and variant hunter has to get his hands and feet dirty travelling well off the beaten path. Digging up histories of countries not previously associated with …

Not an E-Hobby exclusive
It’s still happening. The better part of 30 years after the fact, and not 6 months after our last article on ‘new’ vintage pre-Transformers and Transformers discoveries, we’ve managed to cobble together another bunch of items which may or may not have been commonly documented or known about in the past.

Canadian G1 Transformers
We need more Slags in this fandom

News To Me
Don't cry for me Argentina...because I'm not from there.
It doesn’t seem to matter how much we discover, how much gets photographed and revealed or how much we expand our horizons through international communication with global collectors and knowledgeable enthusiasts, every year in vintage Transformers seems to bring its own surprises and shocks.

This week's toy finds needed a damn good Estratega
How long does it take an experienced collector to get back into the groove and re-establish all their old contacts and techniques for finding rare Transformers?

In Their Own Words – Part 2

In Their Own Words – Part 1
What makes this so special?
Transformers collectors love rarities, and rarity plus hype can make legends of particular toys. But what about those very rare and obscure Transformers that people don’t talk, or even know about?
