I know this is a movie figure but I feel the mold still belongs here? I guess mostly due to it being the same mold as Mirage. Anyway I just scored Fracture.

I know, I was like are you sure this is BotCon, it's not hideous? At least in my opinion, much of BotCon stuff is hard to look at. I do wish the lower thigh was yellow plastic too but it'll work.

She was originally planned as a Universe release, along with Crankcase and Breakaway, as G1 characters. Fracture was meant to be Gobots Crasher, so... anyone up for re-purposing? ;;)

So that's what that is about, that makes sense.

Received the current FOC wave minus Kickback (le sigh). Only opened Magnus and Air Raid so far. Watch out for his feet - when the feet peg together at the bottom, stress fractures appear on the "front" of the vehicle mode where Shockwave's barrel fit over.

Can you say Drag Strip?

Proud to say I officially own my first Junkion.

Picked up a Junkheap on sale at TJMaxx for $8. I've seen them at others since (along with Warpath and Sky Shadow), so if you need moar Junkions, I'd hit a TJMaxx.

Just scored GDO Hotspot, the value pack with RtS Jazz and G2 Prime redecos, FOC Soundwave and Soundblaster from TRU.com.

Also picked up GDO Powerdive ( who I call 'Powersack'. because 'Randive' didn't sound nearly as impressive). The guy is really similar to G2 Ransack, but he's called Powerdive? Go figure. Also got Wheelie and Swerve as well at TRU.

Finally managed to pick up FP Assaulter. He makes the perfect Broadside.

Now my wallet can take a break, haha!!

Picked up Kabaya series 5 from Captured Prey since they were on sale while I was getting a gift. I've only put together Hot Spot so far, but I'm definitely impressed! If there's on real problem with the Kabaya designs, it's the lack of forward hip movement, but Hot Spot looks awesome and I'm looking forward to putting WfC Prime and Deathsaurus together.

My Seekers: Aces box set showed up this morning

but I've had to do abit of fettling to Skywarp to get everything to close up properly in his chest. The bit that the cockpit swivels on, then folds up into it was the problem. The two pieces are held together by a pin, but there is a 1mm gap were it should be tight to each other. Thundercracker had a lose arm cannon peg hole, but a tweak with a screwdriver soon sorted that out. Starscream so far is fault free

Now that I've had a chance to look at my Aces set, oh dear! I've only really had a good look at Skywarp so far. I'm kinda scared to have a really good look at the other two.
Skywarp has a big flake of paint in his right shoulder intake that's really noticeable. His left wing is floppy, while the right one is tight.
On all three the mold degration is really noticeable (back of thigh is really bad) when standing beside my Henkei and Hasbro releases.

Edit: Have had a better look at SS and TC now. SS seems ok bar the mold problems, both wings are tight and the paint is ok. Thundercracker on the other hand has a left floppy wing. The paint stripes on the topside of the wing are fine, but the stripes on the underside are really sloppy in places. Drips of the purple paint on the bracket of one wing. Oh, and the decepticon badges on the wings, one is higher than the other.

I did not wanted to wait and ordered FOC Shockwave and the two minion sets for 65$ shipped from China.

I got the things today. Man, was I impressed! EVERYTHING IS GREAT LOOKING IN ALL MODES! The disk launcher dont work perfectly because the disks tend to get stuck but it's no biggie. Also, why you guys keep saying that Ravage is crap? He's the best of the minions and my clear favorite, along Ratbat. What more, this is a decent sized voyager.

Man, I'm happy! :grin:
