What are you going to do with your other one

Let us know how it works out with Spinout. From the jump he was the one I liked more, I just didn't like the compromises that were made by the manufacturer in the end. Of course, this is coming from someone who didn't handle him at all, but it reminds me of some of the things on Apollyon that shouldn't be. Like screws on parts that twist that should be pinned (I'm looking at you leg panels!!!!)!Ironhidensh wrote:I haven't decieded yet. I'll play and fiddle with Spinout for a couple of days, and if he holds up, I"ll sell Sunsurge. If he doesn't, I'll sell him.
I like the over all looks of Spinout much better, but Sunsurge has set a high bar of satisfaction to meet. Honestly, I never would have picked up Spinner, but the sale at TFSource was too good to pass up.
On the other front, Backdraft is pure sex. Sweet, sweet, sex with 3 different ladies at once.

I thought about doing that myself, but I don't PLAY with my MP's. They are first and foremost display pieces for me. I think I'd miss just grabbing a TF from my coffee table to fiddle with while watching TV or sitting on the computer. Not only that, MP's (due to their inherent complexity) are much less fun for me. In fact, the only MP's I enjoy transforming are Hotrod(28) and the cassettes.Ironhidensh wrote:So, I'm thinking of liqudating my collection down to just MPs and a handful of chugs that I really like.

Sounds pretty cut and dry then. If they ain't scratchin the itch, you gotta ditchIronhidensh wrote:See, I'm having the opposite problem. I love my mps, and enjoy the complexity. So much, that regular, main line figures just seem like kiddy crap to me. I no longer enjoy regular figures. There are a handful of exceptions, but most bring me no joy anymore. They are just wads of plastic on my shelf.
Well then there you go. Cut the fat! Let me know what is for sale! There's definitely figures I have that feeling about, and if I didn't take 30 minutes to write my post maybe I wouldn't have written it at allIronhidensh wrote:See, I'm having the opposite problem.

This is a huge and important distinction. It sounds like it defines the direction you want to go, and that's OK! Hell! Your a grown ass, almost 40 year old man. You are aloud to switch gears to a more mature collectible if you see fit. It seems natural.Ironhidensh (in a different thread) wrote: They are nice, and good toys, but that is what stands out to me: they are toys.
They are not fail at all. I always think, for you specifically, that you can still get some enjoyment from the mainline toys vicariously through your boys. You get the pleasure of nurturing and sharing a love for TFs in them. You can get the enjoyment of playing with the toys while getting the enjoyment of quality father/sons time. You're lucky, and I'm jealous. I have two girls. (Although I still have hope they will show more interest as they get older.)Ironhidensh wrote: My negative feelings aren't fail, as the toys are very good for what they are supposed to be.

Well I am Australian. It's kinda what we're known for.
I agree with the Cobro. Get stuff for yourself separate from your kids toys. And be happy with whatever choice you make, cause it's YOUR choice With me, I'm buying a lot of stuff and sharing it with my daughter, she has a lot of fun with all the bots. Tea parties and such. It's fun to watch her transform these guys. KO MP Bumblebee is hers now!!Cobotron wrote:Ironhidensh wrote: Thoughts?This is a huge and important distinction.

I support any decision you make as long as it makes you happy, brother.
