Yes, problem indeed.

The last flick of the group on here was for #11.
Next one will probably be #22ish.
Just a few more to go for the flick.
I just want to do them in groupings so i am not taking and hosting a pic for each individual pick up.
Gnaw likes group shots...

..the hell. Did you stumble into the world's largest yard sale of 80's toys?

News Credits: 19 · by **MadProject** » Thu Aug 10, 2017 4:59 pm

Today I received my TR Skyshadow!
It's the first phase sixer I got, and I'm really happy with him.
Really a solid figure, and really fun to play with.

Cannot wait to get Sixshot and Overlord too, but to get them I'll have to wait a little, since I want to get the Takara version, since I like the headsculpts more than the Hasbro version.

DAT G1 HAUL ABOVE... :shock:

Anyway, I went shopping and I got myself a want (TR Windblade) and one "I swear I'll never buy" (MP Movie Bee).

What made me pull the trigger for Bee is that I managed to get myself a 20$ off coupon. The cashier didn't fell for the second 10% one unfortunately. Still, I also had a raincheck for Windblade, making her go for 15$ instead of 20$

But looking at the receipt, I don't really understand the maths. Not that I'm complaining but I saved even more than 25$ for some mysterious reasons.

It's too late to unpack either tonight. I'll leave my impressions in their respective threads tomorrow or something.

Super Jealous of that haul Bronzewolf!!!!!!

And Kanrabat, the math works. What you see is the divided 20$ seperated proportionally between the final amount of each toy. In the end you paid 125 which is the same as 15 (the deluxe in your raincheck) + 110 (BB's 130-20), minus a few cents since the numbers arent round numbers.

Ok so I got a LOT of stuff today, here you go:

Not all is to be unpacked and played with. There are some that I bought now due to the coupons which only last until end of august. Since its all the same item number for TLK deluxes and I want that upcoming new Bee and Cogman, I will buy some deluxes now and exchange them for the others later when it will be too late to use the coupons. And that Batman lego is my wife's Christmas present.

oh and take that 40$ exclusives!!!

Will - do I see a voyager AND leader TLK megs? Are you intending on keeping both? I'm still torn on which to get.

If money and space is no object, then get BOTH. both are different enough to be worth it.

MP Bee was unexpected for me and I'm still getting rid of spare figures to buy some sweet G1 so a Leader Megs is out of question... for now... Maybe when a sale?

Based on video reviews, the Voyager is the superior toy simply for overall design and the fact that the voyager is the constant class Megs appeared in EVERY movie lines. All of them together make for a glorious display.

I'm so jealous right now. I think those are the only 3 figures left that I still want. And maybe Sky Shadow.

You see a leader and a deluxe as well as a on step TLK megs. But thats only because I already got the voyager a little while back.

I am more apprehensive in getting a mold I already have than a character I already have. Different sizes suit different scales and my favourite aspect of this collection is the puzzle/transformation aspect so I always find it super cool how you can get from a similar looking bot mode to a similar looking alt mode in a completely different way.

I will be making an article later about which is superior since i feel that might be beneficial. For now I can was impressed by the voyager but let down by the leader, it is not the toy of the year we were all hoping for.

You should go through the TLK toy thread and get some comments from other members who have already shared their thoughts ...

Okay, so perhaps I haven't been ENTIRELY honest. :lol:

They are mine...for three weeks. They're a friend of a friend's, who gave them to me because he was told I was an "expert" by the friend ( :roll:

), so I've been tasked with sort of "curating" them. Clean them up, but them back together, and ultimately use them in a TF comic con panel I'm doing. (Details coming very soon)

So sorry to mislead you all, but I wanted to brag a little, and couldn't resist. :-P
