Older News With the Easter Holiday coming to a close, I decided it was about time we took the number of Transformers toys featured in our Transformers Image Gallery to 1,400. So without futher ado, here are the latest additions to our extensive Transformers toy image gallery :-


BotCon G2 Breakdowns gallery only features In-Packaging pictures, as we've still not taken the toy out of it's box. Silver Starscream is "all toy" pictures, and we'll put some comparisons up with our other Starscream toys at a later date. This gallery wasn't ever going to go online, but we've had the toy for 2 years, so we thought it would be OK to put it up now.
