Another nice G1 haul: loose but complete and minty fresh Weirdwolf Headmaster (and it's not the newly hinted at KO Weirdwolf). I now have the large 1987 Decepticon Headmasters (including Horrorcons) complete!

TF: Prime - Arcee & Starscream (actually going to try and convince my siblings to reimburce me for these so they can just wrap 'em up for x-mas. Lol).

Playskool Rescue Bot Police Bot - for my niece, but is staying at my place so she has another toy to play with when she's up.

Went to the Collector's Fair in Utrecht to deliver a US-bought he requested, and ended up picking these up:

Disney Label Donald Duck Holiday Vehicle
DA-03 Optimus Prime with MechTech Trailer

G1 Ironworks with Construction Site, loose (Missing the "rubble" decorative piece, but otherwise complete)
G1 Blackout & spaceshot with Anti-Aircraft Base, loose

All in all, a good day.

Picked up a couple of deluxes yesterday, largely just because they weren't figures that I was expecting to find. HftD Tomahawk (as with other examples found in Europe on a US card) at Fenwicks and RtS Bumblebee (for eventual conversion into Hubcap) at Boyes.

Genetations Thundercracker, HA Drag Strip(at Target), and Ultimate Battle 2 pack w/ G1 Prime and G2 Megatron (at Dollar General).

ROTF

DLX Ravage

: My only gripe about Ravage is his head doesn't move. The legs have good
articulation and both bot & altmode's detail is spot on.

HFTD

Scout Insecticon

: I don't know what type of bug he's supposed to be, but I like it!
Maybe he's one of Shockwave's experiments. :lol:

The four arms gives his
botmode an alien vibe. His altmode looks to be between a fly and a praying
mantis. DLX Laserbeak and DLX Ravage are going to be his partners in crime
for one of my displays. I just wish his name was different, like Venom or
Barrage.

Hubcap

: Man, I love his v-mode. The grill and the exhaust pipes coming out
the sides had me sold. Botmode looks great. Articulation and a little
detail is all I want from a figure and he has both.

Well that sucks :/ I was fortunate in that the one I got was the display piece with a "not for sale" label on it. They let me buy anyway since I was there at 8:30pm and the sales were virtually done.

managed to find undertow and skyhammer at TRU yesterday

Do you want one? I can sell you one for $10 shipped. I bought it for Salvage and Bomb-Burst but don't need a duplicate Grimstone. Shoot me a PM if interested.

I found and bought my 10th RTS Wreck-Gar tonight. First one I've seen at any of the outlet stores and it was nice to get my final one at a discounted price. He was sort of free since I had store credit already. I also say final but I think I may have a sickness. My girlfriend and I joke about it but it may start all over with Junkheap hitting now. :lol:

Well clearly you need 10 Junkheaps to match your 10 Wreck-Gar.

Yes, clearly. :lol:

I'm at least working on making them all sort of different. I have the Reprolabels Junkion sets, the Wreck-Gar set, Maiden Japan add-ons in the works and some Lego chain on the way to give some of them a touch extra. Some will just be bikes for the others. I also own United Wreck-Gar and Scrap Heap. So I actually own 12 of the mold so far.

Went to Wal-Mart on Saturday and took advantage of their PCC deal. Grabbed a pack containing Steamhammer w/Constructicons along with Sledge w/Throttler.

Over the last couple of weeks I've snagged Energon Tidal Wave in a trade (many thanks to Mr & Mrs O), and the Causality Insecticons. Originally I'd had 5 of each of these blighters on preorder but hard times and a touch of sanity has brought it down to just the one set for the moment. All 3 are currently slightly mistransformed to give them as close to a G1 look as possible. Excellent figures, although if I had a criticism it would be that I'd have liked them a little smaller to scale with My Classics Seekers. Should Hasbro ever decide to do proper Insecticon updates in scout or commander sizes these guys might just go hang out with the MPs instead.
