Here are my thrift shop finds of the week:





Found some other cool stuff on my hunt and left a few TFs behind.

So I just got a package today...


with a little friend named Heinrad! I'm really glad I finally got this guy. I'm just not sure where to put him...

I need to get around to getting a bigger shelf. Anyways, this lowers the amount of original molds from BW Neo I need to 5 counting retools with a total of 15 figures. 12 of those shouldn't be too hard to find in VS packs but the Blendtrons are going to be a pain.

[Mr Skram]

My Vortices are here!








I plan on doing some slight customizations to these. Got some extra Devastator parts for the job.

[-Kanrabat-]

Woah dude, as expected this make one hell of an awesome Galvatronus!

[Zeedust]

Got my Needlenose yesterday:

Finally got around to putting my little 3d metal model of Optimus together. Holy ****, it was a bit more difficult than I expected, but very rewarding. Hell, I only broke two small pieces. Here's is a few snapshots of the process.








Did the pictures on my tablet, so they aren't the best. Sorry.

Wow, that looks incredibly time consuming, so many steps just for a leg. Glad to know it was rewarding though, it looks great

Available at your local Archambault.

I dunno if I'll try one out...

Those things are incredibly awesome. I'd highly recommend them.

[Ironhidensh]

I'm definitely going to look into getting a couple more.

[no-one]

I'm definitely going to look into getting a couple more.

I keep hoping I run into a TF flavored one in the wild. Guess I'm just going have to suck it up and add one to my PoL.

I think I want either the Soundwave or Megatron. I've done the R2D2 one and I have the Millennium Falcon and the Normandy from Mass Effect that I need to make time for.

[shajaki]

Holy that's neat! I had no idea they had to be built

[D-Maximal_Primal]

What I was expecting: Victorion.

What I got:



RiD Wave 1 2016 Legion class case.

Funnier yet is that I never got a shipping notification and they are showing that my package still hasn't shipped and it is processing. And said package isn't supposed to even ship until the middle of the month. To me, it sounds like they saw my info and sent a wrong package when the real one isn't even there and ready to ship yet. We'll see what they say...

[Cobotron]

D-Max, this is the definition of SUCK.
So sorry.

Just heard back from them. They never had Victorion. They mislabeled the listing for the RiD legion case as Victorion. They offered to let me keep it at a reduced rate or return it. Honestly, I see no need to keep them as I didn't want any of them. If you guys would like some or all of them (2 Drift, 2 Clampdown, 2 Thunderhoof, 1 Windblade, 1 Strongarm) let me know. If not, I'll be returning this in the next 2 days

[Cobotron]

Return it out of principle D.
Might wanna PM Megatronus too.

[william-james88]

Return it out of principle D.

Yeah, thats what I believe should be done as well.

Wow, I dodnt know that. Do you now how much they are?

About 10$ each or two for a bit less than 20$.

Nice! I hope to get that set soon too.

So, the doctor is NOT in, but this fella is!

Got 2, turns out its a bit more than that. Its 2 for 25$, which is actually the same price at BBTS. Good thing is, I paid in canadian $

I don't know who those characters are, but they sure are pretty!

[shajaki]

I don't know who those characters are, but they sure are pretty!

They are homages of G1 Powermasters Dreadwing and Darkwing (and their jet modes combine!).

[shajaki]

There is a fan mode for these two, but I have no idea how stable (if at all ) it is. I'll have to try it out!
