I've also seen the protoform Prime and Screamer in Forbidden Planet. I haven't bothered to see what's in Argos since I don't have the money to buy 'em anyway...

Off topic here but...I never noticed you were in Nottingham. Isn't that where GW is at?

On topic...Not sure what all you plan to get but, I was looking at the voice changer yesterday. I really didn't plan on getting it but...there seems to be 2 versions. The first one sounded like Chalk's prime. Was disapointed in that. Then I picked up another one (the first ones packaging was messed up) and the voice on the second one sounded like Cullen's. Anyways I bought the one with Cullen's voice on it. Won't fit my head but neither did the Cyberman helmet. Still it's pretty cool.

Yeah I said Cyberman helmet. Only thing I like more than Transformers is Doctor Who. Was watching the Doctor since before G1 came out.

Anyways happy hunting!

Yeah, that's right. The HQ's in Lenton. GW's taken a bit of a back seat for me lately (lack of time and funds), but I've been there a couple of times. Walk it in about 50 minutes.

As for the helmet, I heard about that over at Seibertron. I think the Cullen one has blue eyes, and says something like "with real movie voice", and the Chalk one has yellow eyes, and has a note with something along the lines of "speaks some number of battle phrases" (I can't be bothered to find where it said it right now). I think the important bit to look for is to the lower left of the helmet as you look at the box face on. But yeah, the boxes and paintjob give you a hint as to which one's which before you press the buttons.

Wow...I didn't even notice that about the eyes or the Box. I'll have to go back and look at that again. Thanx for the info!

Yeah I''ve been in the same boat with GW for a while. Granted now we're on summer break (I'm a teacher) so I've got a bit more time to play. The wife is finally even interested in playing!

Any one have pics of Dreadwing? I've seen a lot of Swindles around here. He's like the least favrotie of the group and he's Shortpacked? I want Scorponok but his design is jsut strange. Anyone have him? Want some opinions before I go search for him.

i can probably pick one up for you at cost plus shipping(could be more or less depending on whether you want him shipped loose or not and where you live)
