The Energon Pub

I am off this week, which is why I have been so chatty the past few days! In case you guys were wondering...LOL.

I did spend some time with Scoria this morning and he is very photogenic.






















Now for some yardwork and then some diorama work Later I plannin' on bustin' in on your places so I can wreak some havoc...

The Cram Cat is out of the bag! And headed downy ochean!
My best brodude of all toimes is from Bethesda. He says the hill billies of Maryland are some of the hilliest billiest around. Must all be chicken farmers.

We are a geographically diverse bunch. The interweb sure is neat.

Diaclone blue - I would love to have that Scoria, because part of my MP plan is to have MP versions of the toys I had as a kid. Now I just need a Mirage and Takara to do Swideswipe in Clampdown deco (police car), and I'm good. Maybe a nice Cliffjumper too.

Donny - Please, feel free to tell me all about Scoria. Anytime.

I was wondering D. I figured you must be off of work. Vaca or just a hole between jobs?

After I hit submit, I didn't scroll up to see that you had told me all about Scoria. Great shots! Such a super cool fig. Slag is my all time fav. For obvious reasons, of course.
How are Grim's shoes?

It's a tough call. He asks such a high price. I've already committed to the ToyWorld dinos, but man Scoria is dope. My hopes are that the Diaclone doesn't appeal to many, and that he sticks around for a bit. He is a very limited run though. I may have to leave this one up to fate.

Edit: C - I like your furry friends.

Hooray interwebs!

Also, everyone seems to know someone from Maryland. I've lived here on the shore my whole life, but my family is from D.C. (southeast yo!) so I don't sound like I'm from the shore.

Cobs- I had a similar plan to own a MP of my original G1 toys. That has changed. Many many times. I think I just want G1S1 MP and if they ever make a good Galvatron MP scaled I'll be set. I'll get DX9 Carry and he and Galvatron will stand alone.

How much height is added by the boots Donny? I never seem to get an accurate shot.

Eating some lunch *munch* *munch* What shot will give ya comparison you need Itsram? I mean the boots add 3/4" to his height. Which makes him about the same height as MP 10 and a quarter inch shorter than Scoria when they are standing stock straight no A stance which folks seem to always do in their shots...

My collection goals have also changed many many many times as well It's dynamic living thing...I roll with the punches

Well dang, I thought he'd be bigger! I think the oversized KO is gonna be too big, but it might be right..

We collect Transformers, it's only right our collection goals transform.

FT is going to be bringing us their take on 'ole Grimmy which I am in for at this point, it could be worth your attention. Do you already have the official Grimmy or no?

True story on the transforming, change is the watchword for transformers and one of the reasons why I like the franchise so much

Yeah I figured they were. And I do have MP Grimlock from the first run at TRU oh so many years ago. He really needs to be taller, I just can't justify spending the money on these dang MP scale 3rd Party figures anymore! Maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaan. So much money. *sigh*

It'll be ok Itscram! LOL. They way I see it's the only hobby I am spending funds on right now, and as long as the bills/savings get paid every month then I'm good. I can't take it with so I might as well have some fun with it while I am young....ish

I want a Xbox One, that's $400 (or two figures, or 10, or 20!). Wow, never thought of it that way until just now.

FIRE SALE!!

It's true, you haven't! I mean, have you SEEN the Forza 6 Xbox One console?! Where's the GranTurismo 7 PS4?! I did like that 20th Anniversary one, and the Arkham Knight one as well.

I haven't seen that yet. But now I have something to google. I've never played the Fornza games other than the in store demos because I'm apparently a bigger PS fanboy than I'd like to admit. I haven't played GT since 2; which I played obsessively with a sickness.

Show me someone who didn't play GT2 with a sickness and I'll show you a LIAR!!

I see very few robits in the past age or so. What is this blasphemy, y'all?!

And I'm pretty sure - self-inviting here (self-inVa'alting?) - that I am the furthest aways. So far away I say furthest and not farthest. That's very far. And toooooootally makes sense.

If Va'al is making the trip across the sea, I'm definitely in for a party at donny's! WOOT WOOT!!

We'll sea about that, been waving about this idea for a bit now.

One's a dad and one's awol - let them be for a bit. Am I boring you that much already?

I knew it! Do you have confirmation?

Va'al wrote:Am I boring you that much already?

Not at all, you'll always have a place to stay down in the bayou.

I just nabbed a minicon (Divebomb); maybe the Mrs will let me have a little play time laters.

Self invite away! I have Carol King playin' in my head now...

Itscram! You need to update the map to include GB and Italy stat!

Will you be bringing any pets or Alpha Bravo...I am sure he would love a transatlantic crossing plenty of photo ops.

Which Canadians are we referring to? Some is a new parent? I feel lost.

Do you know william-james88? Not sure he's ever come around here. His wife is/was due this month. The other would be our own Shaki-J. He's dealing with some stuff. I sure do miss him, but I think he'll be back in full force soon.

Well good luck to them both. Now that you mention it, I've never spotted Will in these here dark back allies.
