I know! It's one of things I'm really happy about with the CW stuff, being able to have one toy which is also five, which in turn allows for several idiotic scenarios for people who never really grow up.

Grow up?! Don't even utter those words! LOL.

I totally concur, one of the things I couldn't understand about all the nerd rage and whining about this guy was the seemingly complete lack of understanding that this is a TOY and the ultimate point was having something that folks can PLAY with!

Play... with... toys... Well, I never!?!

Well I'm off to go complain to strangers on the internet and fire up that flame war in the G1 deco AoE dinobots thread.

Ya. Some new guy came out of no where with a flame thrower and started torching all the post G1 fans, It got HOT!

Hey Donny, how's your weekend? Hey Cram, hey One. You guys doin' it up right too?

Sadly the weathers pretty crappy here at the moment, but got two weeks leave coming up, so some much needed quality time with Mrs Lube (yes I know how that sounds) and the kids. How's yourself?

Binge playing Journey now that's its been re-released on the PS4. Literally, just finished it again and about to go do some yard work before it hits 100° down here.

Y tu?

Mrs. Lube only sounds strange out of context. Mr. and Mrs. Lube, and the little lubekins.
Have fun with two weeks leave. That sounds awesome!

The in-laws were in town and gave me a much needed break from the Tronkins and my father-in-law treated us to some much needed sushi. Now we are off to explore a Parks District pool that has a giant playground in the middle of it. Should be fun for Mr. and Mrs. Tron and the Tronkins.

See y'all later!
Transformers RULE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I totally channeled my lil bro and his current tag line when I saw this..."that's what she said!"

Cobstopper the weekend is good, plenty of sunshine and plenty o heat and humidity...so I am hiding inside with the pups and werkin on my couch potato skillz!

How about your weekend? Doing anything fun and exciting? How is the fam?

EDIT: Ne'er mind I see answers to all of my questions above LOL

Mrs Lube...I will be referring to her as Mrs L... ;o)

Lubekins -- sounds like some citizens from Oz...or the anti-thesis of scraplets...I am undecided.

Cary -- never heard of Journey before (just looked it up) looks interesting. Hope the yard work get's done before you melt.

Ok so it has been a while since I actually posted anything about new members of the family. I haven't gotten a lot of big hauls lately but I have gotten some small ones so I had to let them build up a bit. So after my chores this morning I spent some time playing

So here are the new guys (PART1): Grimlock (Hasbro), Acid Storm (Hasbro), Hammer Sharpener (a.k.a. Nose Cone), There's a few fun shots there with not new figures.

So here are the new guys (PART2): Tesla (a.k.a. Perceptor), There's a few fun shots there with not new figures.





These next 3 were inspired by some photos in the Collect o tron!

Nice additions mate, what are your thoughts on Grimmy? Personally I think he's a fantastic figure with bags of character.

Thanks for taking a gander LL! Glad you like the new members of the fam

As for Grimmy I really like him alot, only 2 things that I could complain about if I were pressed: 1. I would like it if he were a bit taller but some scoria boots will help that (when they get here). 2. I could take or leave this; the head turn via tail waggle mechanism is a kewl gimmick but I think he would be more stable in both modes without. Of course it does add personality so it's toss.

Everything else I love and I got him at original TRU cost in this day an age of high MP prices so I am REALLY happy with that.

Yeah he's got a few to many gimmicks to be fair, I'd toss out the light up hand too if I were pressed. glad you got him for a good price.

You know, I just got a Hasbro Grimmy from shajaki a couple of weeks ago and I can't put him down. He has never been one of my favorite characters, but the MP toy is FANTASTIC. Like Lube said, tons of character, and he just feels so solid in your hands. I love how G1 simple his transformation is.

Donny all the pics look great. I didn't know Tesla had a canon mode?! Or did you improv that?
Glad the C-O-T inspired you.

I'll just be over here waiting for G2 Bee to show up from Japan. Y'all make the most of today. The weekend is almost over. (Lube is probably in bed by now )

BTW the pool with the play ground in it was thebomb.com!!!


EDIT: Lube! You're awake!

Is it raining Grimmy's, everyone's gettin' him Grimmy's all around! Glad to hear you have it and that you lovin' him.

Cobs, you, Cary, and everyone else have some quite inspiring photos and such in your threads. The cannon mode is not in the instructions but the way his legs are constructed you can tell the mode was intended...his calves have the same locking peg holes on both sides allowing for this mode. They did show it off in a few of the promotional photos I believe...

You and me both brother! I can't wait for some more official guys to actually come out, and of course the pre order for Ironhide needs to go up soon as well.

I do have a HUGE haul coming next week, so I'll have something to keep me busy until G2 comes in. After that I think I will leave my POL alone until after TFCon Charlotte.

Pool with a playground in it, sounds like a blast for the kiddies and the kiddies at heart!
