Look up in case you missed my addendum post

And yes! Something that I really hate about say, A3U, is they're Canadian but deal in USD. Maybe you could hope for a TFsource kinda deal where you can get free shipping after so much money, but nope. Such a wasted resource.

But Azim has great rates, deals in CAD, and even gives discounts (maybe just to us Canadians?) when you buy multiple things. He's a real class act. 8-)

I did and YIKES! 42$ plus shipping for a head and two guns. And you still have to get the reprolabels and the figure. I get its high quality, but I can wait until Hasbro releases a new thunderclash, and hopefully from a mold I dont have yet.

But thanks for making us aware of this Shajaki!

So back to what this thread was all about ...

Finally found myself a CW Sky Lynx. Ended up having to pay full price ($49AU) as he was the only one there and I've been waiting forever for him to show up.

Meanwhile, still waiting for CW Hound to come out locally.

WOW, hell of a deal! Does he have a tail, I cant tell. And was the shipping cheap too?

He is missing the tail, parts of the dragon mode forearms, the dragon head covers, and his weapons. But I intend to use the 3D printers my school has Friday to fix that. I have a few weapons in mind, and I believe I know how to print some new arms and a tail. I'm ok with no feet covers though.

And if you want, hop on over to my collection thread, located in my sig. You can catch all the latest stuff coming from D-Max HQ!

Hey, I like it!!

Wheeljack is an amazing figure. Maybe the best of the Prime line to me. I have the BH version and it is so amazing. Hope you're happy!

Now that is a score. What do you think of him? I have yet to find him unfortunately. :MAXIMAL:

Today the mailman brought me a Legends Springer and Ocular Max Jaguar!

Springer is a tad brighter than I'd like, but is still really nice. Ravage is all kinds of cool though. He was a total impulse buy. Can't wait to see how he lines up with the other MP cassettes.

Not necessarily a haul, but I did pull the trigger on UW Comp.

Hadn't bought myself a brand new proper TF for a while so treated myself for Easter when I saw G1-redeco of AoE Slog new for about £22 including postage on eBay. Really like the chrome look (doesn't work on every character but for these G1-homage AoE Dinos I love it). Transformation confused me for a bit (though as always, Seibertron's figure gallery with all different angles of figures is a huge help for these situations) but I admire the way the rear dino legs are concealed in robot mode and robot mode legs get concealed nicely in dino mode too. The rubber parts are a bit bent in places but I can fix that later. Overall very happy with this guy and think both his dino and robot modes look suitably badass and the G1 colour scheme very striking and well layed out.

Nice! Slog can be a bit confusing with transformation at times, but he is really cool. Love his barbarian knight look too. :MAXIMAL:

Yeah I'm very fond of the knights theme the AoE Dinobots have. I want to get some more of these G1 chromey versions if I can afford (I shouldn't have really spent money on this one but I couldn't resist and it ain't like I had much in the way of Easter eggs this year due to my fitness training and diet).

COMBINER WARS HAUL!

News Credits: 1642 · by **D-Maximal_Primal** » Fri Apr 01, 2016 1:05 pm

Some of you may remember that a week ago I got an incomplete RiD Gigatron and I said I would 3D print the missing parts. Well......

The repairs are completed! I present to you: the D-Max special Gigatron 2.0!!

All of this was found on Makerbot, just manipulated for Gigatron's needs :MAXIMAL:

Excellent work on Megs here.

On my end, I got an incredible haul! A junker voyager Movie 2007 Skywarp for 2$CAN. One more victim to customize! :-D

I was looking at the stores today. Saw all kinds of wheeljacks here, and the Trailbreakers were all gone. And none of the stores had voyagers. sad

But on the plus side, I scored a Deployer Overload :MAXIMAL:

I guess I'll share some recent acquisitions. Won a loose AOE Evolutions Prime 2 pack on eBay for only $26 and scored a loose Henkei Megs for 36. This is my first experience with Evasion OP and he is REALLY good. Like one of my favorites good. Definitely glad I got the two as well.

Glad you got hat one I LOVE that 2 pack. And you got a great deal for all those items, congrats!

As for me, I have a bunch of fun stuff coming soon which I look forward to sharing. I just bought a G1 Megatron rerelease (16-S) mint in box for 50$ and look forward to getting it in the mail.

For that cheap, it smell like a KO.
Still, if it's quality, it's a fair price.

It was cheap because the box was already opened, and I got him from Japan where he isn't as expensive. Isnt that the same one you got?

Yup. Open box, same thing, stickers unnaplied, for roughly 125$US shipped from the USA. That was the cheapest possible for a complete G1 Megatron in great condition, reissue or not.

Well, I was able to find a cheaper one by looking at Japanese listings. We tend to avoid them, but they have their own secondary market (like Mandarake) and the shipping from japan to canada is the same as shipping from US to canada so I saw why not:
