Forgive my ignorance, but who is this Micromaster combiner I have circled in the pic. I've seen a bunch of pics of him latley and I really like the looks of him...

Might have to add him to the collection, but it would help if I knew he was

Yeah, sixturbo is awesome. I am in the process of collecting all Micromaster combiners.

I am only missing Sixwing. And the only re-paint I want is Universe Devastator (also seen in that pic in the first post)

Sixwing is a BITCH to get though... Cause he was never re-issued in his original colours! *RAGE!*
I've never seen the original sixwing for under $250...

Is that the train-bot combiner team from the Japanese 'The Headmasters' show? Or am I just going crazy?

But yeah, Sixturbo looks awesome.

I have a KO of that paint scheme and the quality is amazingly close to Takara. Stickers were terrible tho. Didn't complain because it cost $6... :o

Unfortunately the only KO's I will ever buy are the WST Dinobots.

But why would they not release that one in it's original colours? All of the other 4 were released in that way... why not this one?

The best part about Sixturbo is his ability to combine with Armada Sideways!

I understand...KOs are placeholders at best.

Good point...since the molds are still good, they could have at least done a G1 issue of the colors. And why not sixliner too?

I also noticed that the reissues lacked the stickers...not that I liked the old stickers....

Technically any TF can be combined with any other, it's called superglue.

Uni-Primus-cron, anyone?

If you are talking about the one that I have in mind all six of them are not in their original sizes - they are all super-sized a bit.

Hasbro has re-issued the set for the Universe line a few years back and called them the Aerialbots. It is not in the original G1 Micromaster color scheme but at least it is not in the Takara's black/purple Decepticon colors.

Yes, the original Sixwing has never gone below $250US on ePay :( I guess I will have to settle with my Takara white "chase figures" re-issue.

They did re-issue Sixliner. He is just, for some reason, overlooked a LOT. The Sixliner mould never made it to the US re-issues. BBTS had a "lot of various Micromasters" which in the pic was a complete re-issue Sixliner. Sorry guys, I took that one ;)

Right now I have:
Sixliner, Sixtrain, Sixbuilder, and Sixturbo. Sixwing is elusive and expensive, and Universe Devastator is, well, a G1 Devs re-paint, and I am a sucker for G1 Devs, so I need it! haha.
