Past two days received the following (some items not pictured):

Masterpiece MP-01 Optimus Prime (almost complete, missing cardboard trailer)
Cybertron Ultra Class Wing Saber
Alternators Prowl Loose
Allspark Scouts Crosshairs
Allspark Scouts Warpath
Allspark Scouts Storm Surge

Somehow I feel MP-01 is heavier than 20th DVD Prime, maybe just my imagination. This piece is pure awesomesauce! juicyly nice! besty of the bestest! Gosh I start to make up words. Muhaha!

Cybertron Ultra Class jets are really nice too (preview taste of upcoming TRU's AS Wingblade & Jetstorm). Now I have Wing Saber & Sky Shadow MISB, next week I should receive a loose Jetfire (Cybertron Ultra), oh and a 20th non-DVD Prime too! *twiddle*

Cheers,
Coolpop

I know you love me Mugen! hehehe... I realize collecting TF is like entering a blackhole, your body, mind & soul (and wallet ofcourse) all get sucked in and there's no turning back. Lately I'm just working on getting full $150+ purchase credit for Hasbro Play Reward, now I am only $22 away.

I haven't seen any Overcast in the stores yet, but I believe I will get it sooner or later. Keep in touch buddy!

Alright, my turn!

Today I bought 2 figures in different places.

Alternators Wheeljack-£14.79 at Argos. My first humanoid alternator (the other alternator is Jaguar Ravage). Freakin' annoying to transform, especially putting the arms back in place when reverse transforming back to car. Car mode really doesn't hold up all that well, the hood won't close properly and the roof droops down (this is even shown in the Argos catalogue...they have the same problem), plus the doors don't fit sometimes. Cool bot and Mustang modes though (Argos calls every single alternator by its car name, not its real name, for example, Ravage is just 'Jaguar' like his Japanese name, and Wheeljack's called 'Mustang'...I guess Prime must be 'Dodge' and Silverstreak must be 'Subaru' then!)

Movie Allspark Powered Camshaft-£8.24 at Woolworths. My first ever movie deluxe, and it's a redeco of Swindle!

This guy's cool, especially in car mode. In robot mode I don't like the way his arms are stuck at an angle inwards, there should have been some way of changing that, but ah well. The allspark blue doesn't bother me much here really, it's in minor places. Now, if the thing was coated in allspark blue I definitely wouldn't like it.

EDIT: Another bit of useless information, I know this happens quite regularly with toy catalogues but Alternators Wheeljack's legs are mistransformed in the catalogue pictures. They haven't turned the bottom of his waist around and so you see the bottom of the seats as his feet and the panels which you have to flip out to pull the legs out at the front.

That's me pretty much done for now. See ya!

I finally got my Galaxy Force Prime today. I refused to pay ebay prices for one, the TRU here never got any for black friday, and had pretty much given up hope. KB Toys really delivered on this one. $27.99 plus free shipping. I'll have to check their site more often I guess.

I was also able to snag a few deluxes this week (AS Stockade and another Protoform Prime.)

Nice finds. Great job on scoring the Bluejack!

Today I picked up Movie Scout Elita-1. I'll be using her as a makeshift Classics Arcee.

Went to Frank and Son Collectible Show yesterday, much better on Saturdays (most vendors were opened & bigger crowd). Did a quick browse & walked out with just one item:

Masterpiece MP-06 Skywarp

Great figure with ultra fine details & paint applications, I am glad I decided to pick up this piece and officially get into the Masterpiece line collection.

Cheers,
Coolpop

Wow, it's quite a long way from your location, came down to LA visiting? Donno if we saw each other there, but I was in black biking shirt/blue jeans & black World of Warcraft hat, my companions were my wife & a friend, they were both in biking shirts/shorts too. Anyway, belated "Hi Cascadia!"
