So, I'm putting a decent batch of my old Transformers on EBay soon, but I have a few figures I totally can't identify. Problem is, 2 of the 3 aren't actually transformers, and the third... I'm not sure.
hot damn, i think i owned or played with all three of those as a kid. Can't for the life of me remember what they're called, but those two guys do indeed turn into rocks. I would love for someone to shout their name here.

I have that guy on the right (two heads), but I can't remember what series he came from. I vaguely remember a cartoon.
I have a rock guy as well. I bought him off the market, back when my town still had a market, which must have been about 15 years ago.
I called him Rocky (I wasn't a very imaginative child really)

I totally had the two headed guy on the right end as a kid. If only they made paper and scissor robots to go along with them so they would have actually been fun to play with when in disguise.

This cave leads to the inhospitable surface of the planet. There is nothing for you to see there.
Heh, I had Nugget as a child. I imagine he was bought by an unknowing-but-ever-so-caring parent, and me, as a child, didn't really care that he was part of a different universe. He lived in harmony with my transformers.
That is, until I wedged him into one of the storage bays of Metroplex, cracking the plastic and trapping poor Nugget inside.
I heard about these. Would anyone actually bother transforming them into rock mode? "Hey, check out my plastic rock!"
Your sig scares me.
And these toys are.. different.
I had a toy when I was younger. It was a red.. mech, I guess you could say. Not humanoid. Had 2 legs, a 'pod' and 2 arms with 3 (I think) claws on each.

Also, I wasn't able to find a picture on google but I had the Rock lords car when I was a kid. It was fucking sweet. It transformed into some kind of rock jet that fired the nose cone when you pushed a button.
If you aimed it just right you could get your brother right in the eye.

Yup, extra hard gut rock. His arm loaded like a catapult, and lobbed the thing when you hit his shoulder. The gut rock was kept on the end of some gut string which shot back into him when you hit the other button. So awesome.

I was going to say that it was Powerglide, but it's actually one I've never seen before, called Tailwind.
The site in these links has a pretty awesome transforming-toy-identifier
holy crap, thanks!

Like Mega Man Legends? Then check out my story, Legends of the Halcyon Era - An Adventure in the World of Mega Man Legends on TMMN and AO3!

It was pretty cool.
I have no idea what it was from.

This one was the best;
I mean, he throws rocks at heads. Pure evil.
i also had this one. It was the coolest thing ever.
I now wonder how i didn't turn out gay.

I had that one.
I never liked him/she/it.
It was always that weak, jumpy crappy badguy that got it's arse kicked quick by the good dudes when I played with the thing.
i was thinking exactly the same
You could always, you know, hide your keys under them.

He throws rocks at other rock guys?
Heh.
Yup, extra hard gut rock. His arm loaded like a catapult, and lobbed the thing when you hit his shoulder. The gut rock was kept on the end of some gut string which shot back into him when you hit the other button. So awesome.
dammit. It was so pointy and transparent and awesome.
And it turns out that was his real name.
I also bought Nugget off some guy for $5 a couple years back. He's just too shiny to hate.
