Went into the local TRU earlier and they had the Blackout & Scorponok 2 pack. Couldn't see a price though!

Well fudge. I just blew 50,000 energon on minicons, only to find they are destroyed when your character stasis-locks.

Ah well, doesn't matter. We learn by doing.

YAR! It made me quite disgruntled!

You know what? Maybe we should go to the energon donations forum and 'steal (beg)' for energon? Be just like real pirates?


It won't matter for long, as it's almost time for the HMW reboot as type 2.

It's in the HMW forum. Basically, it was the thread about the donations button, but people used it to ask for energon help from the wealthier players.

By all means go suck it dry. In the name of the ODB!!! YAR!

We're in good old Britania, when did we ever get a full line of ANYTHING released? This surely is a large part of why we're disgruntled Brits.

Oh yeah, arhh!

Great fig but yeah, the shoulder phuq me off rather a lot!

Wreakage is my fave Con with Blackout an insanely close second.


Yarr. Those two cons have made it onto my incredibly brief movie tf buy-list. I think the list is sumpin like this:

Blackout
Wreckage
Swindle
08 BB
Voyager Prime

And that be it


Arr. My list be briefer.

Blackout (got)
Barricade (will get on wed hopefully).

Yarr, I also be getting the movie game and the BM series 1 on Wed. Yarr, that will be an expensive day.

Now I be off to plunder this 'ere donations thread. Yarr!

EDIT: Arrr! One of me men just wiped the floor with one of those bots. Guess strength increases work as the guy finished by punching him to death. 89% dropped to 50% off one punch.

I'm now officially having quite a good day. Tracking on my A3/Weirdwolf set shows it to be in the country so that should be in my hands any day. My Games of Deception box should have been posted out from FunPub on Monday so is finally on it's way after being paid for months ago. Work just rang to let me know that things have picked up sufficiently that I can get started back tomorrow after a month long hiatus (seasonal work really can suck, especially when you're laid off just as all the Botcon goodies hit ebay).

The only thing that I'm really disgruntled about today is going into town to look for Titan's TF #1, checking both newsagents, both Co-ops and Tesco and finding all of one copy that I ended up leaving because it looked like it had gone through a mangler.

Officially and according to Titan's press release and myspace page yes, but there have been reports surfacing in the comic forum all week. The first one that I'm aware of was found in a Forbidden Planet last Saturday. At first I'd assumed that the specialty market had been able to get hold of copies direct from Titan ahead of the distributors releasing the book to newsagents, but apparently not. I'm not into York again until the weekend, and since the only copy in Thirsk doesn't come anywhere near my standards, I'll just have to pick it up then. Happy hunting everybody!

Just stick a skull n bones on the button, that be piratey enough. Yar:P

Arrr, that be a very short list indeed. More like a memo methinks :P

And I may have to scour me locals for this new comic book.
I got annoyed when they discontinued the Armada comic book, plus that I didn't win the Armada Leader Prime prize in it. :-x :-x

Yar. The remaining Classics 2.0 should be hitting the shelves in the coming weeks. They were supposed to arrive in July, so it's just down to waiting for that next shipment to reach the stores themselves. To TRU with this glorious vessle!


Ar. I remembers when I went to Germany the time before last, and they still stocked original Transmetal BW! Helped me complete my set, but damn! Behind the times or what?

And then the last time, no tfs in any parts of Germany I went to :(

Wen did you go to Germany?
The secend time was most probebly like between 03 and 07, am I right?
I know a shop in Germany that still has 6 RID Primes taged at €65! And a BM Tankor for €18!
No prices I'll ever pay.
