1) that sideways set was not released ANYWHERE to my knowledge, it was cancelled i think.
2) I would love a wheeljack, but how much?
3) yeah i saw the mini-cons in the main store round mine too.


1) that's a shame, ah well.
2) £15 posted, plus I'll throw in spares of any of the UK Minicons after JRP3's sets if you're still looking for any. Give me a list of what you're short and I'll see what I can sort out on those.
3) bought a full strip at the weekend and got 4 Cloudrakers and 6 Flatfoots (Flatfeet?), bugger.


Wheeljack is sorely tempting...would you be able to hold onto him for a week or two while I cobble a little more money together? It's just that I'm going to the london comic-con on saturday and then I'm away for a week, so I'm going to need every penny for any rareites I may find on my travels.
Also, I don't think I'm really on the look otu for any mini-cons...I've got all the originals...but if you want to get rid of any of the variants I'll take them off your hands if needs be.

prices?
only a possibility, but...seeing as you have 4 of one, 6 of another, and probably others spare...
any chance someone could link me up to pages of them with pics so i can see if i got dem?

DOTM is amazing but slightly too long
Wasp, I cannot agree more with your DOTM rage video, infact, i've a mind to by a second *unnamed* figure just to stab repeatedly because he's such a !"£$%^&!!!!
On a lighter note, a thundercracker would be great if AP decides to be nice this time around -that is if you're getting mini cons-

DOTM Air Raid looks pretty nice.
I went to TRU today. No Generations (Other than Lugnut, who I don't have the £ for) but they had the wave 1 PCCs, so I finally caved in to their £5 offer. I'd been looking for the Decepticon helicopter as well, but it was the one of the more recent ones they didn't have :( Still got Sledge and Smolder.
Sledge is pretty nice, the variations you can give him (diff heads, diff chest configurations) make me wish there was a repaint or two. His Mini-Con is so basic ("I'm a drill!") but awesome at the same time. I could almost dig this little guy as Rumble or Frenzy.
Smolder is good too, although the way he was tied up in the box has given me a very Hannibal Lecter view of him. A very cool vehicle mode, and a decent upper body in robot mode. There's something about his legs I'm not digging. Chopster is, again, pretty cheap feeling, but at least has 2 different weapon modes, and they're both pretty good.

I like my PCCs as they compliment/contrast my Human Alliance Basics. I can almost imagine the cartoon, with the Cons having their Mini-con henchmen/slaves and infiltrating and attacking the world, whilst the Autobots are teamed with a military force to root them out and take them down. The PCC's Mini-cons and HA humans are the same size, which is awesome. Don't see me going for any of the 5 packs though. Maybe if there are 3rd party limbs that become robots too.

Wheeljack's yours, just give me a shout when you're ready and we can sort out the Minicons then (still looking for another one for me and one for JRF3 so might well get a couple more spares yet).

I'll put you a 'Cracker aside and figure out how big of a set of the Minicons I can put together from spares, I think it's about 6 or 7 out of the 12. The original releases were a Kmart 12 pack that Woolworths sold over here and there are a few unique varients in these blind bag ones. I've not got a link handy at the moment but there was a thread in toys about them and a couple of news posts (dating back to Dec and Mar I think) that would be a good start in looking for images. I wasn't really looking for anything for the Minicons as they're all spares anyway, may as well share the wealth. Probably won't be back online until tomorrow now so will try to sort things out properly then.

Cheers to the both of you. I'm guessing 15 for Tcracker + postage right? and AP I don't have any *unnamed*s yet I was just joking. Did you seriously think I can afford anything after last weeks haul? Apart from the £25 I still have left

BTW we forgot to mention the DOTM sale was still on at TESCO even though it was supposed to have finished.

Tell you what guys, I've been asking £15 including shipping for these guys (really just covering my costs on having had to buy a case to get Warpath) and throwing in some spare Minicons as a bonus but if you want to go halves I'll do as full a set of Minicons as I can manage and TC all in at that price, so £7.50 each, or however you guys think is fair to split it, for TC and Minicons. I'll go through my spares tonight and come back with a list of the most complete set I can manage to put together tomorrow, can't say fairer really.

If you guys are happy to go for this that's only 1 'Cracker left to shift, not bad going really.
