The OVERSIZED Grimlok KO?

Yes, that IS the Reximus! TF-Direct just informed me that there's a good chance he's lost. And I have to wait. And be more patient.

When we first met, you were a mere student. Now YOU are the master.
I'm excited to see this GIGANTOSAURUS REX-O-TRON!

I hope so! That will be your reward for making it through the day with Ramjet sitting in the car. :lol:

GOOD NEWS! UW Grandpa Galvatron just shipped from BBTS!
That evil bastard will be mine by next week! :KREMZEEK:

You sprung for Grandvatron? I gotta say I'm surprised with how picky you've been lately *coughMPmonkeecough*. Hell, I haven't even sprung for him yet. I didn't even know he was on your radar. I need info. LET ME INSIDE YOUR MIND.

I almost sprang for Whattheheckticus Grand Galvatron, but I ultimately decided on MP Sunstorm and Prowl instead.

Have I ever mentioned how much I love how well MPs scale with Microman in robot mode?

You know, I couldnt see these pics at work so I didnt really know what I was looking at. But now I do and I totally get what you mean. This is freaken incredible! These fit perfectly with MP Ratchet as the pilots fit with the original. Thats an amazing concept and you should put it in the awesome pics thread (if not done already).

You really should go in his mind, it's awesome, there's tonnes of room and there's a pool table.

I want both grand galvatron and mp primal but I also need money to get a book published (and before that to get a new pc).

Don't see why people are being weird about galvatron

Its just a really weird design and the fact that it is exclusive adds some kind of mysticism. Please let us know when your book is out!

Deep in the cavernous folds of the mold laden, cob web infested brain of Cobotron, lurks the faintest whisper of a thought. As it coughs and sputters one can barely discern it's intent.

"Grand Galvatron is the dopest shitt to hit United Combined War Warriors"

Did you hear it? Good. The pool table is all the way over there next to the bar.

Jak, I pre-ordered that bad boy the minute he popped up. I was originally going to get G2 Menasor and give the limbs to Cyclonus, and right when I had fully committed mentally to that idea. Grandvatron got newsed. I mean he was the most wack-a-doodle non-cannocle nonsense they could possibly serve me for robo dinner. And I was hungry for it. Each member in the set was more delicious than the next, and there was a rock candy Starscream for dessert. The set honestly restores some of my faith in Takara after being very disheartened by thier overly G1 toon accuracy-up-thier-butt directive. Somebody at Takara still has an imagination.
So if by radar you mean, my BBTS pre-order list, then yes, he's been there since 2015.

And N, I think in the long run, choosing those two MPs over Grandclonus will prove to be a wise move for you.

Will, I'm glad the photos better illustrated what I was saying. I didn't post in Awesome Pics, but I posted in the Ratchet thread.

Hah yeah I'll keep you guys in the loop but at the rate I can pay, will be a while yet.

Cobotron@ I would be incredibly cautious over that ghost starscream. I've had bad luck with translucent plastic hinges in my time :-(

though he does look stunning in pictures

He dramatically sets the stage...

Oh. Okay

Now I fully understand. I totally getcha, and while initially not for the same reasons have also loved Grandvatron from day 1. Unfortunately it's just become a priority thing for me. I told myself a long time ago that I wouldn't suffer another MP08X catastrophe (even though he was miraculously reissued) so I have to put MP's first.

I'm still going to get UW Prime and Galvy eventually. But Prime is so *yawn* that he's only for completions sake while Galvy is all for fun. So you know which of the two I'll spring for first

Gee thanks Logs. Back at you. Is this because of what I said in your comparison thread?
Your passion and excitement for your collection is an inspiration to us all! :-D

I was taking pics all Friday night. I wanted to post them yesterday, but got ceamed by some 24 hour stomach virus. Hard to post photos from the John, if you know what I mean. :SICK:

I'm better now! ;)^

Land Quake was another Botcon haul. I love this guy. Such a clumsy mess of fun. He just reeks of Aaron Archer-ness. This was fun era for TFs when they were still just big cool toys.

Towline! Again, big chunky dumb fun.

OK.

More of this.

I pimped out the batle wagon with as many Energon weapons as I could fit.

Bugs are out early this spring.

Well crap on a stick, I haven't been notification for this thread. I just happened to get one just now. I feel like I've been neglecting my pals.

Loving the new pics, BTW. And G1 Ratchet in all it's dysfunctional ugly glory :APPLAUSE:

All I want is a small table by the jukebox where I can sip whisky.
