I knwo you guys havent seen the movie yet.sideswipe is a boss. nice shiny silver like the perfect rotf one, but this one's even better with working wheel feet and weapon capable hand. pure win for 3 quid.

I haven't seen it either but have a few thoughts on what might happen. I'm still not reading the censored bit though. One massive spoiler is enough for me.

To be fair to Michael Bay, I've never seen him talk to anyone or actually heard him speak at all. Whereas I get to watch Alan Sugar acting like a knob every Wednesday! ;P

i've got fed up of avoiding spoilers so i read it

i can be spoilt but still have it come as a suprise, don't worry (nifty skill to have, actually)
did NOT see that coming, actually.
but yeah so if managed to make an awesome stealth force mode for b'cade, but c'case has stayed in bot mode since thursday cos of an awkward bit with his bonnet.
shall consult the instructions next time. #-o

soo topspin is easily 100 times cooler than roadbuster, jolt is an amazing cannon fodder bot and sideswipes shoulder joints are really weak (when turned the grey piece they are attached to twists dangerously. all in all a good haul though

Had a bit of a random find at Sainsbury. A RotF multipack with legend Ravage, repaints of a couple of the RotF scouts and military repaints of the S7 guys from the 07 movie scene packs. Had on a Sainsbury exclusive sticker and was reduced to £13.49, not bad for what's in there so I grabbed a set. This might well be old news (I don't pay as much attention to movie releases as other stuff) but it's the first I'd seen of this set.

News Credits: 2 · Sat Jul 02, 2011 10:33 am

yeah thats the ravage infiltration right? with flak and rollbar if i remember correctly. i think it came out with the rotf nest subline around a year ago, originally at £25. nice to see it reduced though. i may pick one up if i find it

They had a few of them in shrewsbury sainsburys about 2 weeks ago on a pallet at the end of the aisle for the same price, also the huge leader size (possibly bigger) Animated Prime.

I quite like AS Tek, its one of few tv shows i actually watch and enjoy, but maybe im sad lol.

Any news of Warpath W'lord?

Oh and my amazing partner bought me Topspin too, id say Roadbuster was better....but his alt mode is missing the weaponry that topspin has

it's a HFTD set. I did a three part review for it.

I saw DOTM today and it was epic My only complaint is Why did they Kill off those 2 Autobots :-x

Soundwaves Car mode was sexy and Sentinal Prime Suprised me :shock:

News Credits: 3 · Sun Jul 03, 2011 3:37 am

so yeah i was in town again yesterday and i went to argos and i used my argos £5 voucher(from that starscream months ago)(which expires at the end of july this month), and 1.49-ish of my own money and got myself two cyberverse legions @3.67-ish each.
the commanders were only reduced by 90p, which is 10%.
they had 13 in, and of different ones they brought out bumblebeee, skids, white barricade, crankcase and sideswipe.
i got c'case and s'swipe cos they're both new molds.
they are both actually very good, and i love what they did with c's middle finger

they can't hold the shield and sworrd of sentinel really, but they look cool with one of prime's guns each, so they have a ranged and non-ranged weapon to attack with.
oh and nova, except for primes i think that sideswip is the character we have he most figs of; i have rotf, rotf ledgends, and dotm cyberverse legion, and you have rotf, and dotm.
that makes five.
and that also makes, bar human alliance and sidearm sideswipe, every sideswipe mold.

DOTM TIME! i can't wait. i watched the first two last night so as to remind myself fully of the preceeding events, even though i didn't really need to.
I saw a shockwave in high wycombe (not that i live there) but i couldn't afford it. is way smaller than you'd think though.

errr sainsburys i think, or it might have been tescos i'm not sure

almost went to see DOTM yesterday, managed to resist thanks to the thought of the week's worth of dinners I could buy for the same price as the ticket. saw the Burger King Megatron toy, it's pretty terrible, but might be worth it because of that.

dont think ive seen them, unless you mean the ones with oversised heads that hold the body or something...similar to the rotf ravage one...

News Credits: 4 · Sun Jul 03, 2011 7:45 am

yeah, big giant heads. nowhere near as cool looking as...well, most things in the world, actually.

I kid.

haven't done any hunting recently, but do have the other 2 FP Insecticons pre-ordered now. My defences are broken, let the waiting begin!

Got the VAT paid on Friday so my Warpath shipment should be here tomorrow. Sorry for the delay, I get my parcel post to my work address these days and I've just had a week off. I'll message you properly for shipping/payment details tomorrow when I've got more time at the computer.

That's the set guys, not bad for the price and legend Ravage was worth a punt at any rate. Better than the deluxe in some respects. Did anyone over here stock the Sideways themed set that was advertised on the packaging? I don't really want or need another Sideways but the set of legend Arcee twins would be worth a purchase if the price was right.

Still got a Wheeljack and a couple of Thundercrackers if anybody is in need and still looking for a UK version Bodyblock in sealed bag if anybody is still picking up the blind bagged Minicons. Tesco have been putting them out in the main store around here recently.

1) that sideways set was not released ANYWHERE to my knowledge, it was cancelled i think.
2) I would love a wheeljack, but how much?
3) yeah i saw the mini-cons in the main store round mine too.

Sun Jul 03, 2011 4:28 pm

Ok waaaghlord, thanks

Just seen DOTM for the second time, still good, picked up on a few things i missed last time.

As for hauls, well i got some of the tftm figs back from my ex's parents which was nice.

Also, my kapow pack turned up, im a proud owner of the 2 targetoid packs, rewinder, dotm Mudflap, and DOTM Air raid.....all are sweeeeeeeeeet

1) that's a shame, ah well.
2) £15 posted, plus I'll throw in spares of any of the UK Minicons after JRP3's sets if you're still looking for any. Give me a list of what you're short and I'll see what I can sort out on those.
3) bought a full strip at the weekend and got 4 Cloudrakers and 6 Flatfoots (Flatfeet?), bugger.
