This isn't the place so I'll keep it short - it was as bad or worse than you heard.

Back on point, yeah I'm with Shajaki, dem NYCC TR stuff looks amazing as does a lot of the RID figs.

Are Compy's new mittens and slippers PE or the KOs? I ask because I'm thinking about getting some of the simplified KOs. I love the PEs but dollar monies.

Ah the 20th OP, I still have the ragrets on that one. Huh, that Screamer barely looks like him, but that jet is all sorts of sexy.

The mitts and boots are KO's, but not simplified. It's the second set I've bought now (first being some greys for Bruti) and they're great. Sorry for not taking any pics yet but I've just been busy 8-}

Also tonight, I got a feeling that I'm gonna have one he'll of a haul to share :michaelbay:

Unless the Postie lets you down!! Which I hope they don't. ;)^

Also, you didn't say which MP3 you prefer. Inquiring minds want to know! And the thing I mentioned about the detail wash on the MP3 US version!!

The things!!

Right! Sorry CramCram :oops:

Takara MP3 all the way. And the wash.... I think it can come off accidentally and easily. It was a while ago, but I recall dusting/cleaning him with a damp cloth and I'm pretty sure I wiped some of it right off #-o

Ok so it's not just me. That was my worry!! Sorry to bother you about it :oops:

I'd say I prefer the jet of the Takara, but the bot coloring of the Hasbro. As I'm crazy. I guess the MP11 version wins overall though..

Where does one find those KO feetsies? The bay?
After Vicky's cool feet I'm more willing to give those a try.

No bother, I meant to answer before.

But sorry Cramarrific, for me it's 3>11 [-(

Haha, that is a better link. It says simple as if they don't turn into weapons, but I'm ok with that. With ebay being so sketchy it's hard to say what's what. Copy paste and I've found some white and purple ones. Tanks ;)^

Dood, dat haul is what dreams are made from :APPLAUSE:

I'm curious on your thoughts about Mugan Vox? I'm overall underwhelmed with that mold.

@Cobo: scissoring :lol:

but you know that summons a song to unpack a haul by :DANCE:

News Credits: 293 · by **shajaki** » Thu Oct 13, 2016 12:05 pm

Shanksh y'all :-D

Vox was the only thing I got to open last night, and my thoughts are "huh?" to "meh". The mold is alright and there appears to be no structural issues, but he has some scary thin pieces on him.

The "huh?" comes from, he ain't the right colors! His chest window is clear bright red (supposed to be smoked/black) and his visor is unpainted black plastic! After researching I've found some pics of whatever version mine is, but I don't know the circumstances of its existence, nor was it described as such. I think both are easily remedied, but still. WTAF. Badbat rules though.

Everyone remember Burn's stinky Whirl? Look at the one box in my pile that's stained. The Vox box came with an odour, albeit a delightful one: coconut oil!

News Credits: 1642 · by **D-Maximal_Primal** » Thu Oct 13, 2016 1:26 pm

Coconut oil Vox? Interesting...

News Credits: 293 · by **shajaki** » Sun Oct 16, 2016 7:00 pm

So, I've ripped everyone open accept for the 14+ Alert, but have only snapped a shot or two of Vox.

So like I said, red window and black eyes. I emailed Tfsource the day I got the stuff, and I haven't heard anything back yet so I'm not impressed. So what I tried was putting a blue piece in there to make it look purple. And the eyes...... since my goal is always cartoon accuracy, I'm strangely thinking about doing them yellow. Maybe because he has so much red already? Thoughts!?

At a local event, the Pop Culture Fair which pops up 3-4 times a year, I got a few goodies. One of them, is another long lost MP!

Vox looks great. Badbat looks really cool. Those extra bits to make him look at Soundwavey are nice, especially liking the gun.

The purple window is working and yellow eyes forever ;)^
