Buggered if I know.
I'm still a little miffed that there won't be a G2 cons subfaction. Even though I'd probably be the only one in it.

Hmmmm, there's an idea for a sig.....


It's quite possible that the G2 factions may be added down the line somewhere.


Who knows? We can only wait and see...




EDIT:- Has anyone dared try to get Led Zeppelin tickets yet?

I've heard it's pretty much the national lottery at the moment...


I know people who would risk even Ebay for those tickets...

Tickets are selling like a Botcon Thrust.



I wish I were running the box office who got these tickets. I'd be rolling in it.




I hope it's televised.

What am I saying, of course it will! It's the Zep!!!!

Led Zepplin are overrated (though not bad).

Pink Floyd? Now THERE'S a band!

Ahoy there, mateys.

Anyone know how long TRU have been selling the Blackout/Scorponok two-pack for £29.99 instead of £40? Because I picked it up at that price today.

TRU Manchester had Swindle and Bonecrusher in. Forbidden Planet have one of the later waves of FABs (Megatron, Blackout, Frenzy). Woolworths in Rochdale had Arcee, Dreadwing and 08 Bumblebee along with Voyager Megs and Ops. Sadly the Wilkinsons had no Classics, so no Grimlock for me.

The dullards that buy em (eg non-fans) think they're getting a good deal.

TBH I'd rather just go buy Blackout alone.




Yeah, I do enjoy a bit o Pink Floyd now and then.





Arr, damn ebay!

No sooner have I almost got the money for DB's Wingsaber, I pop on ebay and see an Alternators Prowl going for a humble sum.

But it is a bidding auction.

Maybe I can convince me parental units ter get it fer me fer christmas... :-?



I wonder how Tangent's doing in HMW. He couldn't get hold of weapons last night, so I had to ask OS to take a looky-see.

It was, and I believe they've been warming shelves because of it. I picked it up because the price was reduced. Blackout looks great and Scorponok is simply fun to play with (racing him across tabletops with the claws spinning).

Motto: "Don't do drugs, beer's cheaper anyway!"
Yea as I was in the uk I saw that 2pac wanted to buy it, but saw the price!
No way!
I saw it in Germany now and it costs €40, which saves me €1.
So yea it's cheaper in Germany then in the UK, but I'm still not buing it, cos it's just 25 dolars in the US meaning you save half a deluxe, so I wayt for the price to drop.

Hey when did wave 2 come out in the UK?

When to Glasgow today. I went into John Lewis and they had Titanium War Within Megatron and Ultra Magnus and a couple of Movie Ironhides and Robot Heroes. I never got anything but then I went into Woolworths and they had Voyager Megatron, Deluxe Dreadwing and Deluxe Arcee. I got Deluxe Dreadwing. Did I make the right choice :???:

Quoted fer the goddamn truth!


My Tescos had 08 BB and Dreadwing yesterday.Figured I'd buy BB today. Gone. However there was an Arcee which I bought. Better be decent.

So anyone with a big enough Tesco, check for the new wave of Deluxes. Also Ironhide (no SS dammit!) and Leader Prime and Megs.

2 for the price of 3? That's not a very good deal.


Oops..that's what I get for trying to do three things at once. But that is the kind of prices Forbidden Planet trys to pull, I wouldn't put it past them.

I mostly browse Seibertron at work, I don't think the boss would approve of me doing Heavy Metal Wars when I should be working. I'm already surfing the web when I should be working and I just proved I can't multitask...

quite a lot of stock in dundee. not been to TRU since Thursday (they sent me a £5 voucher and then had nothing of interest :P ) but the tesco 5 mins from my house has the BB 2-pack amongst the normal deluxes and the Legends 4-pack. Woolies in town had Arcee and Dreadwing left, plus some Classics Megatrons. Argos finally got the BB and Prime 2 pack, so I got that.
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.

My apologies lass. Ye never can tell around here. :P

Glad te hear yer gettin some decent action out of HMW. I've heard nothin from OS yet.

When ye have enough XP, I highly suggest upgrading yer cons' strength. If yer gonna have to brawl fer a while, at least ye can kick some ass properly.




Arrr, I be sorry ter hear that Frimal matey. My condolences too.



I can't believe that Germany still has Cybertron out. And that they have CD Scattorshot!

I saw the pic DM put up in some thread, can't remember which, and saw him hidden in the corner. I was like, no way.


Nothin new here. I really need to go to TRU again soon. Haven't been in ages.
