Congrats! Overlord is a lot like G1 Scorponok (in base mode, to clarify), except with everything done better. You're in for a treat.

I'm psyched like I haven't been in long time for a TF.

Small haul today, picked up a CW Legends Groove. Pretty groovy if you ask me.

They do look lovely dont they!
I really need to set aside some time to get these Combiner Wars figures unpacked and transformed. It honestly feels like sometimes Im buying them quicker than I can open them? :lol:

These days I feel if I dont buy them now I might miss them or be left with some Ebay scalpers as an only option!

Well this particular TF line has more of a Collect them All aspect than any previous year so I can definitely see these go up in value in years to come. Would this be your first experience with those molds? Since it was not for me (aside from Blades), I didnt feel the same need to quickly unwrap these as I did with previous releases. But that Streetwise retool (hell, I feel like caling it a remold at this point) really blew me away.

Today the Botcon Box set arrived! They look amazing!

That completes this year's set for me.

Thanks for the heads up. That forum is buried so deep I had no idea it even existed. Maybe it could be parallel level to this one (Transformers Toys Discussion) so it actually showed up on the forum sections list vs being buried under Non-Transformers Toy Discussion which to me means I wouldn't find 3P Transformers there.

Remember when I said I wouldn't buy anything until October? Well, ha, ha ha, ha... Oops.

No regrets!

Holla back to 1986, forget about more recent legend and voyager Generations toys, because oh jeesh, it's Classics Rodimus and Generasians Springer.

These two are just delish and a bit special to me as well. As we all know these two along with some other fellows basically stole the spotlight in The Transformers: The Movie, which was my first ever interaction with Transformers as a kid through VCR. It's really nice to finally own a plastic representation of two characters that represent some of my earliest memories of the franchise.

Quite lovely, indeed.

Well, its been a rough month but not financially! Here's my feel good haul From BBTS! Legends distribution have been poor at best, so I snagged the newest four (Groove, Warpath, Roddy, and Skywarp). Being bitter about missing TAV Drift 24876 times, I broke down and bought him at NOT a discount. And I pre-ordered the Tokyo Toy Show Armadatron and Black Convoy not entirely sure if I'd keep them, but when they sold out lightening fast I decided to go for it.

Heh. The packaging on Warrior Drift is pretty much same size as CW Legends. Heh.
Not sure why it makes me snort.

I hope this month will be better. And I hope your cute puppy is fine too.

That Takara TAV Optimus is now in stock so I look forward to posting him here soon.

Shaki, I think Prime wants a sip of that beer. He's pointing right at it.

Great haul. I hope it helps rub out the ruff spots.
Cheers big ears. Have fun rolling around in that pile of bots.

Hey! That's the toy that's been in your sig forever now.
Congrats! Looks really cool!

News Credits: 650 · by **ScottyP** » Sat Jul 25, 2015 12:41 pm

Today's haul in the mail:

RiD Warrior Gold Armor Grimlock
RiD Warrior Night Ops Bumblebee
AM-21 Arms Master Optimus Prime. Had the Micron for a long time but wanted the Matrix accessory.
FT Sever
TFCC Punch/Counterpunch
Botcon 2005 Flamewar
Botcon 2005 Flare-Up

With that, down to only five missing Botcon toys! Unfortunately two of those five are $400+ (Antagony and '94 Breakdown)
