Blah I wanted to vote for springer, welcome to the forums though Roadbuster I love your signature pic.

I'm hoping TF4 will be Rise of Galvatron when it comes out .

Hope they get someone with a gravelly voice to do him.

Maybe that guy that was Sidious in Star Wars.

Thanks, blukis.

Yeah, I kind of figured that's what would happen. Well, basically it's a couple dozen photos with a vast majority of Transformers sprites spanning pretty much all Generations (G1, BW, Kreons, Prime, etc.) Kinda like my avatar here.
