Psycho robot butler!

Did you paid the inflated online price or have you found it in the wild? Because in case of the later, it would be big news.

Online but only cost £26.50 with free shipping from Hong Kong which is cheaper than buying a TLK Deluxe from my nearest toy store (which would be £22.99 plus £6.70 busfare to get to a town with toy stores). Fun figure and while the black wash may be a lil inconsistent (easily fixable if needed, oddly it has it really lovely done on the super detailed part hidden by the chest panel cover but not so much on the chest panel cover itself) i like the paint apps (yay silver on the wheels!) and particularly on the large face. Also I like how the Titan Master seating area does actually compact nicely on his back.


(jeez look how dramatic Bee looks from this angle )


Love the gear cog detail

If I want Cogman, I think I'll have to pay the price and order it from China as well.

Really, I doubt the thing will ever come out in stores. It will be TLK's "lost deluxe" like DOTM's deluxe Soundwave, Q, and Leadfoot.

EDIT:

I am NOT missing out. So I'm buying TLK deluxe Cogman for 46.23$CAN from China. That's 11.75$CAN more than what I would have paid buying at full price with taxes locally. Not too shabby because I consider this the shipping price.

The only two deluxes I really wanted for the TLK line was Steelbane (for cheap) and Cogman. Got Steelbane and I will not regret paying extra to be SURE to have Cogman.

That's pretty much how I felt about wave 3 Bee, got sick of waiting and just wanted it NOW so was willing to pay a bit more. Again though even at £29.99 that I paid it's still pretty much about what I'd have paid for regular TLK Deluxe price and busfare to go get him from a store if by some miracle they even had wave 3 in stock. And I bloody love the figure and I look at it and have no regrets at all. So it's all good.

Nice haul! I kinda want the Legends version myself, but regardless, Blitzwing looks like a great figure. I need to get some version of him. And Nitro Zeus too! Gotta love Nitro "Macho Mech" Zeus.

Legends... yeah iunno. Takara and their odd choices of purple

What's the stickers?

They're Diaclone repro's (from TF Kingdom) for my Redstreaker. And they are pretty bad in comparison to Toyhax Reprolabels

Nice Cogman! These might be the first in hand pics... news worthy?

[Evil Eye]

Yeah, the purple is kinda...odd. But no stickers, nicer colour layout and little black Dumbocepticon win me over.

[shajaki]

More stuff!

I got excited for a moment and thought that was the cancelled but barely released and ultra rare Spacewarp, and was about to ask "How the HELL did you find that?!". Still, Timelines Astrotrain is cool, slightly iffy headsculpt aside. Nice colours on a nice (if bricky) mold.

I wish we'd get a new Armada Jetfire, partly because I love the design but mostly so we could get an actual Spacewarp.

There have been lots of in hand pics from China, but he's been released there so long ago that it feels like no one ever saw him. Kinda crazy how long the gap is between distribution in different countries this year.

And Cool Haul Shajaki!

I don't feel like posting a picture, but I was lucky at Walmart today.

Most TLK movie toys are on sale. Legions are 5$CAN instead of 9.56$CAN.I take Hound, Dragonstorm, and Megatron. Ring those basterds at the cash register. Hound 5$, Dragonsorm 5$, Megatron 9.56$.

"But why Megs is ten bucks?" I innocently ask.

QUEBEC LAW OF ACCURATE PRICING TO THE RESCUE!

So Megatron is free. 11.50$CAN total for 3 great TLK legions!

But I kinda cheated the system here. Because for reasons, only the latest wave of TLK Legions figures were on sale. But those reasons are stupid so there.

That be a nice bunch of little last knights.

Sixturbo (reissue) is here!

[D-Maximal_Primal]

Received a package from a certain Itscramtastic Friday after I went offline. Behold, my 5th Masterpiece in under a year and my first ever TFCC/Botcon figure: Sideswipe and Depthcharge!



I love both of these and have played with them a lot this weekend. Still haven't made up my mind which is more fun

[shajaki]

Haul! Scorn, Strafe, Clash Megatronus, TRU JPN giveaway sword and shield (they are so nice!!!).... and my final Beast Wars Returns figure, JETSTORM

[D-Maximal_Primal]

Scorn is Sweet!!! And I think I far prefer the darker blue of the AoE Strafe

Sears is going bankrupt so they are liquidating everything at 25% and 50% off... Well, some % off an horribly inflated price is not a sale but oh well. Still found 3 TR Gnaws. I only took one for my MOSC collection. 11.25$CAN with taxes. Not too shabby, but could been better.

[no-one]

Is that a Sears Canada thing or a Sears everywhere thing? Of course our Sears don't sell TFs or video games.... so

Yeah, our local Sears closed earlier this year, but the only time they've ever sold toys in the last 40 or whatever years was that one Christmas they were working with KB Toys in 2003.

As I know it's Canada. As for the USA, I dunno. As for toys, they seem to have a tiny, tiny bit since last Xmass but they kept ordering little tidbits through the year. That's why they had some Gnaws.

Sears going out of business is no wonder. A few weeks ago, I saw a living room table that look like some office basic trash. Fake wood and chromes steel tubing legs. All beaten up. The kind of garbage given to charity shops. Ugly, and heavily damaged. Regular price, 3000$, on sale for the low, low price of 700$. WHAT A DEAL!

I know this is way behind the times, but I just picked up TR Broadside after debating it for 2 weeks. I thought I would hate his carrier mode and like the jet mode, but it's the other way around. I like it so much I'm considering picking up the Tidal Wave repaint. (Considering that the repaint makes my wet dream of a Titan Class Tidal Wave an impossibility.)

[Stuartmaximus]

you can always fan mode the jet mode

[shajaki]

Fridays mail!

[Jelze Bunnycat]

Wait... Does the box say "Double-dealer" instead of "Clouder"?
