The Energon Pub

Bagh! Now I be disgruntled.

When V2 launches we lose all of our xp, energon, weapons, minicons and alts. Everyone is back to zero. It's already been delayed a few times, end of September is best guess at the moment.

Woah Frimal! You've got all level 1 bots, if you're going to hit the Quint missions stick to the 0-1s. In the 0-3s you're going to get your ass handed to you every time for no real gains.

Ye scurvy bilgerats, i don't be moving house, i be headin' to yorkshire for a rest (i.e going on holiday until the 9th september, sorry for the way i worded it )

But when i return, i be hopin to have plenty of TF booty in me treasure hold, yargh!

Aargh! Best we forgets about that one me thinks aargh...

BARGH!!! I be sounding more like a Klingon than a pirate.

Arrr, the scurvy land lubbers. If we be loosing everything, I feel charitable. As Frimal be needing Energon, I'll donate a bunch to ye. Don't say I do nothing.

I will also be altering my team to become the Executioners from my fanfics. Two Griffons, two Eagles lead by a Dragon, who is actually in me current team. But he will not be the mad, desperate person his bio currently says. Nay, it will be before the disaster.

And Quints cheat. They repair their bodyguards half way through a battle. That's cheating. If only tharr be EMP's.

We do get to keep our names and bios.

If the alt modes are getting reset, I may as well change everything to the team. I wanted to do it originally, but I only wrote them after I had already made the team. My current bunch of ingrates do appear in one fanfic, but I may as well make it a team.

Thanks god, says I. It took me ages to come up with the Bios for Big Grim & his Monstrous Regiment.

It is a shame I'll lose the core five Dinobot alts but I'll live.

My lowest bots are lvl 3 and I've only ever seen a few wins. My higher bots get to go up against the Fallen so last even less time (but do rke in the xp).

N.B. my Kabaya's have arrived from BlackGaine, how fast delivery from USA?!? If I'm awake enough I'll be putting a Ravage together tonight, if not I'll be playing FlyFF...

All this talk of HMW reminds me, why be there so few captains sailing the seas of seibertron without their [ODB] tag?

And in other news, my mate was randomly at a Sainsburys (I think) near his new job in Washington when he spied with his telescope deluxe bone crusher, which he bought for me and dilivered post haste.

Bonecrusher aint bad, i think his movie self is SOOO goddamn ugly that it dosnt matter that his toy robot mode is.

What ho, chaps. Another Disgruntled Brit signing in. Thought I'd ask if there's any ground rules I should know about, or shall I just wade through this behemoth of a thread?

And in case anyone's interested, I live in Worcester, which is generally a pretty damn barren spot TF wise. Rather brilliantly, Woolworths and The Entertainer had a great stock of Movie and Real Gear stuff, right up until I had the money to buy them. Sucks to be me.

Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyyyy!

Hi all!

Yesterday I finally got to see the Transformers movie!

I had to take my girlfriend to see The Simpsons the day before (otherwise she wasn't going to see Transformers with me(though she really enjoyed the Transformers!)).

I also took the opportunity to check out some shops!

Toymaster had Zoom Out 25X and Booster X10 in stock but didn't have any Voyagers or Deluxes in stock.

Forbidden Planet (International) had Movie Arcee and Dreadwing in stock and also had loads of seperately packaged Optimus Prime's and Megatron's (from the double pack released last year with the Ultimate Battle dvd).

No sign of the Bumblebee two pack in Tesco.

Nothing of note in Asda, Sainsburys or Tru.
Though Asda can be strange since each Asda seems to have it's own prices and sale item's which another Asda close by won't have! (There are four in Aberdeen). One Asda had OP Voice Changers down to £18.94 while another had the OP Arm Blaster down to £14.94!

Sainsburys had the TF Super Soaker down to £14.99. I seriously thought about this one!

TKMaxx still have the SWTF Millenium Falcons at varying prices! (Some are £19.99 and others are £16.99!). They also have the Toyota Roadbot at £14.99. This is actually quite a smart toy in alt mode in my opinion!

Also, before the Simpsons movie started there was a trailer for a film called (I think) Bad Robot. I'm not really sure what it was about but it looked quite good from the trailer! Anyone know anything about this?

Hi Sledge!

WARNING: SEIBERTRON CONTAINS NUTS!

AND ODB CONTAINS PIRATES!

Welcome to Officially Disgruntled Brits!

I must admit I'm one of the less disgruntled brits here especially as of late since I don't think we're doing too badly for toys at the moment!

I don't think there's really any major ground rules here (though some of the longer term members will probably fill you in on this!). It's just good to have another Brit here!

Generally this is the only thread I post on and is normally the first one I look at when I log on to Seibertron.

It's also good you found us since we really are not just a sightings thread and are in the wrong place!

Ron.

I got pointed here after suggesting an American should try being a TF collector in the UK before he moans about his problems. Dunno about the rest of the country (although Aberdeen seems to have it pretty good), but Worcester sucks.

That's the same everywhere. I missed a huge and rather importnat chunk of Cyb cuase I had no way of getting to a TrU for half a year after I finished uni. I was not pleased. (Luckily after that my mate got a lisence and a car!)

Speaking of which, I start learning Monday, so in the highly unlikly event that any of you are near Bishop Auckland Monday afternoon, steer clear of all roads!

I just saw the Prices for the BotCon stuff on ebay.....
Why bankacount oh why didn't you exeeed erlier?
If my parents see em prices, I'll never have a complet classics colecton! But I want them, it's now classics, ore saf living in my home, what will I cose?

OH and good luck at your driving Redimus!

Just remember to take the clutch off slowly. I often stall at junctions by releasing the clutch too quickly and not putting on enough gas. Once I'm going, I'm fine, but pulling away usually gets me.

Good luck with the driving, or is it too late for that now?

And with the Classics seekers, would there be any point emailing Hasbro to point out that quite a few people would like to get all six seekers without having to auction of body parts to pay for them? The Botcon exclusives look good, but I can't justify paying that much for them. Especially not when I've got a spare Classics Skywarp sitting around...

Got the last 08 Bumblebee in Woolworths today. Also got Arcee, and there were at least 3 others on the shelf. One of the jets (Dreadwing?) was there too, but I have no interest in the Decepticreeps.

As far as I'm concerned it never hurts to tell Hasbro how we all feel. I'm tired of em shafting the rest of the world in favour of the yanks.


I always wondered the car kept stalling. You solved me problem Insurgent! Thanks!


Welcome all new Brits to the Official Disgruntled Brits thread. Feel free to talk about anything, everything and the other thing too.

It was my birthday on thursday so i thought i would share a few of pics of what i got. I didnt know about the Bumblebee 2 pack being available, mine came from Tesco (one of the home store type places that doesnt sell food)

Hope you like the pics!!








All in all a great birthday

I really don't like the Movie appearance of the TFs, but some of the Movie toys are growing on me. I wonder if I could bodge a better looking head onto a Movie Bumblebee?
