The Energon Pub

[Rodimus Prime]

Just picked up TRs Kup, Perceptor, Krok and Quake at Target for $50. They also had Topspin but I passed. I was looking for TR and TLK leaders but no luck.

How odd. Topspin's the only one in that wave I'd consider getting.

Really? I thought the 4 picked up all had appeal. Especially Kup and Perceptor. I'm surprised how much I like Quake considering how insignificant the character was and how dull Hardhead is.

I snuck out of work to grab a new pair of TLK Voyagers today!

Topspin is the best deluxe of the whole tru line so far

YOU'RE the one who's been leaving Top Spin as the only Wave 4 Deluxe on the pegs! Finally, the mystery is solved...

Yeah there were 2. But I never cared about the character and I'm not sure if Twin Twist will ever be released. Without him Topspin is out of place to me.

I do wonder if the Rewind mold will ever be reused for Rumble and Eject.

Dem some good-looking voyagers! Even if they're Bayformers.

Well, Twin Twist is in the very next Deluxe Wave; and Hasbro said Rumble and Eject aren't happening. Either hope they go back on that or hope Takara does 'em.

Yeah I think Topspin is great update of the former Jumpstarter and being one of the ORIGINAL Wreckers works for me. Kup looks really bad to me especially the arms, head and bright colours (all things which I find vastly improved on Takara's version) and the others just didn't interest me at all (always found Perceptor an incredibly dull character, robot, alt-form). But hey if they do right for you then very cool you've got them.

Quality stuff. Voy Megs quickly became one of my all time fave Transformer figures. He's barely spent time on the shelf cos I keep playing with him on my desk (along with Sqweeks despite the major scale issues between the two toys hehe)

Why? It is a simple repaint. And I decided to go back to Target and get Topspin. Thanks.

Yeah, Kup looks much better in vehicle mode.

Today was EPIC.

How so?

I went to my local geek store again today. To buy and to trade.

So I bought a G1 Bluestreak A.K.A Silverstreak. Expensive, but now my MP have finally his G1 self. It's an excellent figure and in great condition for it's age.

So, what's in the big box above?

It's...

ACTION MASTERS GALORE!

First, a whole army of

Some bits may be missing here and there, but most are 100% complete.

I'm tired as cant possibly list them all. There are many that are Euro exclusives.

And now, a few

That jet is wonderful!

This make for a very, VERY unbalanced war. But eh, Devastator riding a vehicle will bring back the balance enough.

The seller didn't care about them so not only could I brought a HUGE box of old, irrelevant figures and collectibles, the seller basically gave me 100% of their values in trade. Meaning those were 1:1 trades. I will NOT list what I brought because it's 5 full photos... for a grand total of around 1000$ of stuff! And I got back over 1000$ in Action Masters! It was a win for everyone!

EDIT: Photobucket is being greedy so I try doing full attachements instead. But something weird happened.

[bodrock]

Anazing haul Kanra! And I do love G1 Bluestreak -- I got two m'self, as well as that more recent TRU MP version of him.

Yeah, they've become douchebags and are essentially no longer allowing "hotlinking". (As evident by some peoples signatures)

Time for a new host.

I didn't even realise Photobucket was still around. I stopped using them years ago when they started being dickish even then. I currently use imgur for such things.

Ugh... My backlog of customs threads will be a pain to update.

Saw some Wave 1 Deluxes on sale for £14.95 each in a Tescos I don't normally get to go to so picked up Berserker and I really like him so that's nice.

Isn't hotlink'ing kinda their whole purpose?

Oh hey, you customised him?

Just his dreads so far cos as I was being driven home I was looking at the artwork on the box and liked how his dreads looked kinda gold on them and I had a lil point of this paint on my desk from doing a couple details on Voyager Optimus Prime a lil while ago so I thought what the hell and did it and I really like the colour contrast and breaks up some of the gray. Although now his new name should probably be Goldilocks.

And it still is!
Provided you start to pay.

Time to move to Facebook and set a page up there.

D-Max did it, though I think he gave up on it after a couple of weeks.
Or it just doesn't show up in my feed, 'cause you know, **** you FB

Hadn't gotten much of anything Transformers-wise in a while. I did get MP-38 Optimus Primal in the mail Friday, only to find he's missing the mouth plate face. Going to have to see if AmiAmi can do anything about it.

Car boot sale haul!

Only two figures but they're two BIG ones and relevant to my Last Knight collectings.

2007 Nightwatch Optimus Prime Missing weapon and a lil grey bit off his shoulder. His smokestacks have broken off but are present so I can try superglue them on. I think this may work well for one of the 13 Primes sorta thing since his colour scheme and the more accurate attempts at movie Prime toy since this one has led to it having it's own look.

Cybertron Primus. Missing omega lock key thing (had to look up how to transform him without it, turns out AA battery is perfect sized to insert in the locks) and no missiles but a huge toy and while I'm not a big fan of it in robot mode it's still impressive and in Cybetron mode makes a great centerpiece for my TLK figures (obviously Hasbro thinks so since they've redecoed it at a silly price for the TLK - Mission to Cybertron store exclusive subline)

Both were only £1 each!

[-Kanrabat-]

Even with missing parts a buck each is a steal.
Congrats!

Yeah. I've actually had a complete Primus with (worn and torn) box for £2 from a car boot sale about five or six years ago. Sold it for about £35 on eBay when I was done with it. This one won't be worth quite as much but it's still a very nice piece and a bargain price and as you can see in the pic with TLK Prime & Megs I think it works well as a symbol of their fight over Cybertron in the movies.
