Give us your review when you stop playing, in like 3 weeks :P



What were your quotes DM? I can't for the life of me remember.


And I do wish mods wouldn't change their names. It makes things so much more complicated.

The Muffin's best post (that I've seen) is in me sig. It be hilarious!

OT, I finally gots to open Mirage and Concept BB. Both are great!

But boy, is Mirage's head small. Otherwise, excellent figure!

I got a bit miffed with the BB. It took me 10 minutes to figure out how to automorph the upper body without breaking it.
But that's not the bad thing.
HE HAS TWO LEFT HANDS!! :-x



So I'm about to send Hasblo a very demanding email, demanding the send me a right hand for him.

The QC on some of these movie figures is down-right abysmal.


On a high note, me bro's birthday is tomorrow. So I finally get to look at Reissue Soundwave and his team in the flesh.
The stickers look well-applied from the box though.


Plus, we've just ordered movie Brawl, Barricade and the Classics 'Ultimate Batlle' 2 pack off of Marks and Spencers website under the 3 for 2 deal.

So £30 for the three! :grin:


Can't wait. The 2-pack comes Monday, and the two movie figures are scheduled to arrive a week after. Availability and ordering issues etc.



PLUS, I should finally be able to send DB's cheque tomorrow! I had to wait a day or so so that I could get the money I needed to change me dubloons into a postal order.


PLUS PLUS, me bro received his two G1 tf kits today! He got Trypticon and Metroplex. They look awesome.
If Hasbro released 'build your own tf' kits, I would buy them. 8)



That is all.

Slaps self on wrist for bidding on an Aveo Swerve. At least it'll be relatively cheapish should I win. Plus it will go nicely with my Pimp yo' Classics agenda. Of course then I'll just want the yellow version as well...

Can't say I'm surprised, yet can't say that I'm not.


Amazon is usually real good to me, but I guess it's all down to the indvidual seller.



Hound em till they cough up, or track em down and take everything they own; including, that's right, their BLUEBERRY MUFFINS!!!

Hi all! :)

Thought I'd let you know my latest sightings of TF's.

Woolworths had quite a few of Thundercracker and Rescue Ratchet. The three pack of OP, Jazz and Brawl is down to £19.99 which I thought wasn't a bad price. Strangely they have them labelled as Real Gear! They also had Cybertron repaints of Clocker, Hardtop and Skyblast. Plenty of FAB Frenzy, Megatron and Blackout.

John Lewis had much the same but also had Ultimate Bumblebee and 6" Titanium UM and Megatron.

One of my local Toymasters' have 6" Titanium Sunstorm and War Within UM.

My local Tesco still has no sign of the Bumblebee two pack but he is in their Tesco Direct catalogue. The store has the shelf label up stating 'new' but it's getting refurbished at the moment and there are crate loads of toys waiting to be taken through from the stockroom. I'm sure the two pack is somewhere in there but...!
They actually have Classics BB on the shelf in place of the two pack. When I asked the other day, the shelf stacker (strangely not employed by Tesco?) couldn't understand the difference. There's a car and trailer in the pack and he reckoned that made it the two pack I was looking for! To be fair he was trying to help but I felt odd as a 32 year old trying to explain the difference between two toys to him in the middle of a busy store and he's looking at me with a bemused expression! :roll:

I'll try and take a look in Tesco again tomorrow and hopefully Asda too. I'll also check out Tru.

Is it just me or is there a distinct lack of deluxes at the moment? Most places I check (except Tru) seem to be severely lacking in their stocks. Also it seems Fab Frenzy is either the least popular or most packed as he seems to be everywhere! I quite like him! :D

Try thinking you're buying a concept Bumblebee and then getting a 76 Bumblebee in the mail. :BANG_HEAD:
BTW, did those TF kits come painted? I'm interested in buying the Victory saber one.

Nope, if you want them in the right colours you're going to have to paint them yourself. Here's some pics of a few of mine.

Those do look cool. I like the city-bot ones and surprisingly I don't mind the weird colors. Are those the transforming ones? And where might I find these and for what price?

Its official. I cant keep up. Everytime I check this thread it's gone up by another 10 pages.

Even with the distinctive tradmark red posts, I STILL cant find my last post.

STOP BEING SO SUCCESSFUL YOU DAMN THREAD!

Also have nout of interest to report, having not seen a tf Ive actully wanted in over a week and a half (apart from fab Blackout, who looks ok (much like fab brawl and much unlike fab ss). But in the end I couldnt be arsed to waste a tenner on a toy that has the articulation of a scout and dosnt come with diecast parts.

If that's a serious problem you could try keeping a pad by your computer with the page number you last posted on. Then again it's useful to reread recent bits of the thread anyway from time to time.

Just got back from my latest driving lesson. First half was me making inexplicable mistakes, the second half was me inadvertantly reacting well to the entirty of Bishop Auckland's inability to drive properly (and my instructor aplauding quit a few particularly bad examples of how not to drive).
