What can I say? We get treated like crap. :evil:
Revoltech Megatron with a hat, nice. Got pics of that?
Actually, yes. Haven't taken any new pics of my collection yet (don't want to snot on the camera), but I've had a trawl through my Photobucket account. Excuse the Revoltech Valkyrie and Ingram, but they're so damn cool, they've ended up in most of my newer photos. Links underneath each photo, 'cos the forum will chop the edge off.

Posh Spice...yum, yum. For a 34 year old she's hot. But if Japan was inudated with Victoria Beckham tabloids like the UK, then I might be turned off just as much.

Good job with the questions Sledge; and you did it with a nasty head cold. I am interested in your story about Prime and Megatron vacationing together. Do you have that story still? I would like to have a read.

A quick root through my hard drive, and here it is. I'd like to think I've improved as a writer (and really should try to prove it sometime), but that it's still worth a chuckle.

In Ireland, we have poor distribution AND no convention. Even worse, when you consider that one of the main TF artists is Irish.

Personally, I prefer the movie aesthetic, at least they try for realism. Nothing wrong with kibble. I know I found Actionmaster Kick Off and Axer more interesting than Banzai-tron or Mainframe.

I still like Posh, it was Baby Spice I wouldn't touch.

So do you guys come under the same branch of Hasbro as us, or do you get a whole new set of problems?

See, I'm not sure on that. There's a sort of fake realism. Where would the driver sit in Bumblebee's alt mode? How big would Starscream be if he actually did turn from an F-22 into a robot? Shouldn't he tower over Prime? I kinda see what you're saying, but when you look at a line like Alternators that showed you really can make cars into robots and still have somewhere for the driver to sit, I found the Movie toys "realism"... lacking.

What I've heard is they import stuff from Hasbro UK.
