The Energon Pub

Pulse sale package #2 arrived

Oh great haul there with the MPM stuff, great renditions.

So, some thoughts:

Kid Omega: why do his hands not have separate trigger fingers? Otherwise, he's cool.

Ch'od: he is cool, glad he is finally complete. He's nice and heavy.

Nebula: she is perfect, and i adore the sword arm. I love heroes with sword arms.

Kraglin: why no waist joint??? Otherwise, he is nice.

Cosmo the space dog: I am super glad she is complete too, she is adorable.

Spot: his is hilarious, I love him. I need to put him with America Chavez to have the multiverse jumping pair together.

core Ironhide: He is neat, I like him good enough.

Hot Rod: this guy is gorgeous. I love the pink on him. This is what the SS86 toy should have looked like! First time with the mold too, it's pretty neat.

MPM Starscream: I like this one more than the original. The tattoos and darker colors look super sharp. And his joints are a lot tighter! huzzah!

MPM Nemesis prime: this is the 3rd future corrupted Optimus Prime of the year for me, and he is gorgeous. It's beautiful.

Got a new Smash Changer

I got this chunkster yesterday. After getting the simplified Predaking, it was nice to get Prime. And this guy is actually pretty great. I wish the head could rotate, but this is a chunky and really nice big toy. I love the shield and weapons as well. It's just a fun thing

He is awesome looking, you definitely have some great additions to he collection, very nice!

I actually liked the upscaled legends figures from beast hunters, especially Predaking, I actually prefer the upscale to the original Voyager figure

Same, I now have both upsized voyagers, and love them both. I just wish the Prime had head articulation.

I kinda really want to find the upsized deluxes now.

Primal enjoyed the long weekend camping

I could only get hold of the windrazor figure from the deluxe range, his friend never appeared in stores near me. He didn't fare so well but still fun to mess around and add bulk to the predacon forces.

Yeah, I heard the deluxes weren't very good, but the novelty is interesting, along with the new weapons they all got

So, I got a bunch of stuff lately, but the one I really wanted to share here is Fan Toys Thomas. My oh my, is this a great figure. I got it thanks to Thew's review, and it is totally worth it. He is so good you guys! He has a ton of mass to him, and his robot mode and alt modes are super solid. His transformation is also really good, it is involved, but nothing bullshit difficult, it's logical and produces some great results. He is great!

As for the other stuff, Armada Optimus is absolutely amazing; Megatron is solid but a bit vanilla; Copy Convoy is OK, beast mode is good and robot mode isn't, that good, though the colors are nice; Snarl sucks; Tala is a nice addition; and Grimlock is for a family member who will be coming into the world very very soon!

Fantastic haul D-Max, I like that you're thinking ahead woty the little grimlock! How soon will the new addition be joining you?

Man, I like MP-style Spacebus! He actually looks really, really nice!

Good luck! I still remember waiting for my first, that was torture!

I found my Golden Ticket.

You have no idea how happy I was to take a full squad photo

Fantastic find D-Max! Congrats on completing the squad!

So, I officially started down the GT rabbit hole. I now have Safety Prime and Fort Max, and prime is on the way. 3 down, 2 to go!

And Fort Max is pretty nice. This car mode ROCKS! I still don't really understand why we have Race Queens, but it's neat nonetheless. Also love how his mastersword is a car jack

Ive thought about trying to buy some of these. Alot of details with the car modes. Definitely nice addition to your collection.

SGM

Got another GT! I am enjoying these guys





I'm also very glad with how my minions of Unicron came together. I also like my shelf that holds them, the mercs, and the quintessons. I'm particularly happy with Mammoth Nemesis holding Soundblaster

I got some more stuff in as well. It has been a busy week, and I still have a couple more things coming too

Congratulations! Hope your wife is doing okay! How are you feeling?
