Picked up voyager Meatron today, very nice.

Played with the Voyager Prime and he is ok, light up features are pointless, the gun is useless, too much see through plastic.

Liking the size of the Voyager Megs( lil size pic below). Fits in nicely in scale with the deluxes.

Still no news from Argos here in Norwich.

I will try attacking TRU tomorrow or Saturday, too, just in case we've had a California-style breakout.

My FE Starscream shipped today, should arrive soon! Woop!

I spoke to Toyz and Gamez today, who has also been in touch with Andy from Kapow (and vaguely with BBTS). Apparently their supplier has not cancelled any pre-orders for the FE figures.
They have, however, been postponed to February rather than January.

He was quite hopeful about them still being able to ship stuff, and they all seem to be working together in some way.


Nothing at all at TRU, Argos has run out of everything but a Voyager Prime and are not sure about any restocking soon.

Don't sweat it on the RiD figures, give it a month or so and the first couple of waves should be everywhere. It's any FE figures you want that now is the time to be grabbing, and while I've not checked I imagine prices are already rocketing on them.

I picked up the Panimi Prime sticker albumn and some boosters today. I'll be picking up a duplicate albumn at some point for the other side of the reversable fold out poster. The 'story' told in snippets of text is the 5 part openner story retold so all the images seem to be from those episodes rather than the first season proper, so no 'Jackie, Airachnid, Skyquake or Breakdown. I'll set up a trading thread for spare stickers and link to it in my sig once I've grabbed a few more booster packs.

tried both Argoses (Argi?) in the town today, not even a Cyberverse. I guess word is out. Not sure I'd even buy any of these ones right now. Will be hunting for Airachnid once we know she's out, and Skyquake probably, and possibly Blue Bee, whoever he ends up being. I'm definitely not up for "completeing" a collection here, at least not until Hasbro reissue the FEs. Til then, I'll be picking up bits and pieces at most, and even then it'll be mostly supplementary guys.
assembling a Neo-G1/TF:TM cast. Please PM if you have (or know of) the following at a reasonable price: Classics or Henkei Astrotrain, Sunstreaker, Sideswipe, or 3rd Party iGear Ratchet and Ironhide.
Also looking for Universe Repugnus and Overbite, Frostbite and Longhorn and any Webdiver toys.

Well. I've been away from seibs for like...ages. Too long. Dunno why, I think it was all getting a little too much. I needed to step back and...play with DOTM laserbeak, who is frickin awesome. (His mechtech feature is so addictive...) And can stand on the cyberverse ark. always a bonus.

so yeah, anyone care to fill me in in brief?
also, what are these "robots in diguise" prime figures. RID is all that pops in to my head :P

also also, so your post from a while back wasp, and yes i am happy with myself. I mean, for god's saake man, you've collaborated with MATTTERSMASHER. It'll be thew next, my friend, and then: THE WORLD!!!

also also also, nova may or may nto be somewhat back. he said that he might be because TFP looks tempting to him. Here's hoping eh?

here, here!
but thew never actually talks to anyone so...
RID is the sort of catch all name for the new figures be they prime or apparently generations when they return. I'd say get down to an argos to get some, but they'll have been sold out by now.

bad news bros, toyz and gamez have had their first edish prime orders cancelled.
Here's what they said:
"I believe most customers did expect this email, and although our fingers were crossed, a few moments ago we did get confirmation our orders for Transformers Prime Entertainment Packs, Voyagers and Deluxe have been cancelled.

Although this was way out of our hands we would like to offer a HUGE apology and as a way of saying sorry, I would like to offer an extra 15% on top of your spend with the undelivered Transformers Prime as store credit. There is no expiry on this credit.

A full refund via the method you paid is also an option. Any orders containing “in stock” items will be part shipped and the Prime items refunded.

Let us know what you would like to do, and either a unique discount code would be issued for the store credit or a refund via the original payment method(please allow 72 hours for this).

Once again, apologies for the inconvenience as we appreciate this this has been a very highly sort after range. If you do decide on the website credit the first batch of UK Prime toys due in March have been listed.

Thanks"

Toyz and Gamez just sent an e-mail round letting us know that they have received confirmation that all preorders for the FE line have been cancelled.

:(

Nice to have you back, sir.
Prime RiD is the official name of the TF Prime line.
Deluxes are also called Revealers, and Voyagers Powerisers/Powerizers if you're a Yank. :P

Argos was able to grab quite a few early, but most of them are now out of stock, and do not know when they'll be getting any more in. Release dates for general retail appear to be somewhere between February and March.

The Voyagers appear to have translucent plastic parts through which to shine the LED attached to their weapon/gimmick.

Hm. Anything else?
