I tried the ScottyP trick with Volcanicus, and the new larger feet don't look too bad! Shame he once again looks too skinny.

Outback came to work and continued his friendship with Stiggy. I think this crossover is one I intend to keep displayed on my shelves...

Picked up this little stinker at an exchange store I visited for the first time ever. Only TF there besides a Kreo large Starscream from almost 10 years ago I think. $3, couldn't pass up the sweet truck dude!

Also, some shots of the bots at work from the week. Man was it a busy one too

And finally: it is time...

The pics with the beagle are priceless!

The beagle seen in those pics, his name is Duke. He was born blind, but the little guy is the sweetest thing ever, and he is the cutest beagle I've ever seen, his 7 year old self beating many puppy versions!

I tried so far to get a picture of Snarl on the other beagle, Wrinkle's, back like he was riding her into battle while she slept. I succeeded! But the lighting was so piss poor I had to delete the picture, it was so grainy and bad. I will need to try again here next weekend while camping (I forgot snarl at home, so my poor Volcanicus is stuck with a Jazz leg this week!)

PUPPY

And I'm spent :lol:

Duke!
I remembered that the ol' boy was blind. Did he move to the new digs with you? You watching him? Or were you at the Fam's place?

I was visiting the fam for the weekend. Had some fun with some cousins and grandparents too!

And it was through this adventure that Snarl got left behind. I'll see him again thursday night camping though, and I should be able to get some good shots there!

Another one of my top 10 figures in my collection I could never get rid of. I love this Grimlock so much, he is my definitive Grimlock

News Credits: 1642 · by **D-Maximal_Primal** » Mon Jul 23, 2018 8:08 pm

Got some what I think are really good pictures from my camping trip this past weekend, hope you guys enjoy!

(This one right here above this sentence may be my favorite picture I have ever taken)

So for these next 5 pictures, you have to imagine Outback using a Steve Irwin voice

"Crikey! We got us here a wild Springload in it's natural habitat! Now this creature is incredibly, and I mean extremely dangerous! I'm gonna attempt to touch him"

"You're alright mate! you're alright!"

Also, to mirror Va'als images from SDCC, this was my scene Wednesday night:

And finally, have some recent Deskbots! The Metalhawk pair was really fun, I'm starting to enjoy a bulk with a smaller partner or 2, or a pair of bots more and more.

News Credits: 15 · by **galvatron00** » Mon Jul 23, 2018 8:54 pm

Agh I wish I had that Metalhawk to have the duo!

Also, I just can’t get down with that Grimlock. I have no idea why. It’s sad

Also, Outback and Springload!! :lol:

I love my Monsterbots

Also, the Clones came with me to work 3 days this week! They were fun together

Check out what might be my greatest haul ever...

G1 Jetfire, 99.99% complete, the small gun clip has a small piece broken off
G1 Grotusque complete
G1 Doubledealer complete
G1 Astrotrain complete
G1 Abominus, with Hun-Gurr and Rippersnapper complete
Beast Machines Mirage, complete
RiD litte Towline
Generations G2 Megs
SS Lockdown, bought at Target. The rest were found at a collectors shop I visited for the first time a half hour away from my home.

Total spent on all of these: $285

And they had a ton more stuff. They had every US scramble city combiner torso, G1 Metroplex, Sixshot, PM Prime, and tons of other stuff.

And a bit with some incomplete guys that made me ache. Found most of Polar Claw and Dinobot, complete robot modes for DotM Sideswipe and Nitro Bee, part of TM Megatron, the list goes on

I **** a brick when I saw he had a complete, white, G1 Jetfire. And then behind the scenes, not quite to the shelf yet, were Abominus, Grotusque, and Doubledealer. He basically sold me those 3 at asking price, along with Astrotrain at asking price, and gave me the Terrorcons and the other 3 dudes.

And to follow up with the previous haul, the mailman arrived with my FOC seekers!

Also transformed all my new bots. Sinnertwin is off by himself letting super glue dry, I tried to make him an arm, and I did not know it was basically impossible to do so without snapping off the head/neck/joint post :-(

That Jetfire! The last time I was looking (which was a good number of years ago now) he was going for several hundred dollars. I even remember a near mint figure, complete, in box, though the box had some wear, I think it was $695 or something. Crazy!!
