Leonado, I owe you an extra drink at the tavern tonight.
Id totally forgotten about toyzandgames and its based in my hometown! :lol:


To the rest of you; Yes, it has to be from a UK store. Not for any misplaced sense of national pride but because we need to support our UK sellers to be sure they will keep on selling to us!

And the **** postal service maybe back to normal, but the lazy **** still wont deliver my **** comics from last week as there will another **** stike that means up in Sheffield they wont **** redeliver anything. :-x ****!!

Good day!


The week's post arrived. I had Wingsaber- whom is effin massive and I love to bityies- my bro had some stuff too, and the usual letters that don't interest me.


I also got my university application finished, along with the two new biology papers I got today!

No work this weekend! 8)



Now, with next week's fiver I can buy alternators Mirage! And since we're doin it through Paypal, and I expect the strike will finish for Wednesday, I'll have it for Fridayish!


Now I only need 13 more transformers to finish back-collecting my musts! :grin:


I **** love Fridays.


Oh, and sorry to hear about your spot of bother Psychout :lol:




EDIT:- Like I said in the feedback forum, I highly recommend DB to any and all who will listen. If he's got summat you might like, go for it. Have no fear, DB is here! :P

We have a feedback forum?

Well, Ravage XK who runs TFzone gets my vote. I got MP Screamer, Encore Soundwave, and we worked out a deal for longstacks for our 20th Primes from him with 0 hassel, he keeps you up to date and everything comes well and truly packaged safely.

You won't regret Alt Mirage. He IS sex on a plate.

And I hope you are going to study Geomatics at Newcastle University. It's great fun.


Yeah, it's a shameless plug, but we were told to advertise the course as much as possible. I even agreed to give a talk about it at my old secondary school. What the hell was I thinking??? I never do things that nice.



On a side note, I might be loosing my marbles completely. Today, I have been talking to myself. Nothing unusual there. I usually say thoughts out loud. But today, I was answering myself Gollum style. And it didn't feel wrong.

That does not sound good Insurgent!

But now to my triumph, I finally completed Spider-Man Reign, the best comic ever!
Found it yesterday and finished it today, I want more of it!

Welcome to the inner circle of tf collecting.
Occupants- you, yourself and I (as in you) :P



lol I'm planning on going to Brum U or Nottingham and studying astrphysics. The plus to go to Nottingham is that I'll be closer to Ellis' Modells actual store! :grin:

I look forward to Mirage greatly.
I do plan on gettin some stuff from Ravage's site at some point. He has a titanium Jetfire goin pretty cheap I could do with.

Astrophysics? You had better have a good head on your shoulders. That stuff can make timeline screwups sound easy to follow.

We wish you all the best of luck. :D

Yar, I have a head like no other! :P


I can understand all this fancy shamncy physics stuff.
It's how the differential of the exponential function is equal to inifinity that I don't get. Just how do you figure out that sort of thing out?




EDIT:- Went to TRU today. It was a mess. Crap all over the place. I tidied it up a little, and decided I would get Longarm next time I went. Also picked up a job application form.
Thought it was a little weird, cos they ask for a medical exam and other weird questions.

Hope I get the job. I wouldn't mind working 8 hours on a Sunday. Final battle Jazz is everywhere too, but I want the G1 repaint. Saw a Rescue Ratchet, which I will acquire for crimbo.



Also, me ma claims she's seen S7 Armorhide in Walsall, so we're gonna drive over tomorrow and I'll check it out first hand.

I dont know if this is old news or not as im not very active in this thread and i dont buy TF's often either.

But today i went to TRU in Basildon with intentions to treat myself to a movie voyager starscream but i was astonished to find heaps of re-issue soundwaves! I was spoiled for choice as they had movie thundercrackers, rescue ratchets, and re-issue skywarps.

I have wanted the re-issue soundwave since i found out about it so i gladly sacrificed screamer for soundwave.

I love this guy! I havnt opened it yet but i am already in love with the packaging and im thinking of collecting all re-issues now, i never really had much interest in them before.

Oh and he was £24.99.

They also had an "ultimate" Bumblebee which i didnt think much of. Not worth the £79.99 price tag thats for sure. They also, to my surprise, still had a 20th anni MP Prime, as well as some DVD Primes, and of course loads of Cybertron figures. I was surprised to see heaps of Classic Jetfire's as well. And they had the Bumblebee and Longarm duo. No other movie deluxes however which was a shame. Plenty of leader classes though.

I LOVE RE-ISSUE SOUNDWAVE!!!!!

Congrats! My TRU seems to have tons of him now too. So I wonder whether they've always had them and just haven't put em on the shelves before now...

What Cybertron you seein? Skywarp and Unicron I presume?


Soundwave has a great box. A perfect combo of reissue book-style and the Classics style packaging.
They seem to be gettin new 20th anni Prime, as these ones look in good condition, with no dings or creases on them.






I so wanna go into my TRU's storeroom and see what tfs they have back there...

Probably Wing Sabre. There still seem to be quite a few of him and Quickmix on TRU shelves.

Thats the one! I found him quite interesting, mainly just due to his sheer size. I might pick him up second hand one day just due to that fact.

Leeds TRU was shyte again - They moved the shelves and took all (30 boxes on Thursday) Re-issue Soundwave out cleared out all the classics and generally halved the TF shelf area.
20th prime in abundance as is Longarm - plenty of Re-issues (prowl, red alert, tracks, infernoe, skywarp) everything else is Robot replicas, FAB Frenzy of Cyberslammer BB.

Where if heck is Classics Starscream when I finally decide I need him!!! Amazon seem to be the only ones stocking him and I won't mail/web order until I know the posts sorted as I can only get stuff sent to work and I finish there on 9th Nov....

GRRRRR most disgruntled.....

Other than that I want Robot Heroes Wave 2! Damn you Hasbro!

Postie - Where's my Classics Grimlock??? (please don't lose my Energon Downshift!!!)

Did I mentioned disgruntled....

England: Home of people paying exorbatent taxes and getting shite all in the form of basic public services in return.

I.e. post, and refuse collectors who actually know how to pick up rubbish, as well as useless underground and above ground public transportation services.

Yay for england, the best country in the world! 8-|






Fecking useless country.

Got it in one Sonray, and to think I used to be proud to be British :P

Granted I still am most of the time, but not when this sort of crap happens :(

Ah well, at least England beat France in the rugby, and England beat Estonia in the football :)

We won the rugby as well? wow.

Collider, don't suppose you're anywhere near a Boyes? Apparently they're getting Classics wave 1 in stock.

And I now have a Classics Grimlock on order from Amazon. Here's hoping.

If you've got Cybertron Prime then he's definately worth it for the combined mode.

I might consider getting Cybertron Wingsaber if he's in the january sales. Otherwise, I'm concerntrating on my wishlist.


Amazon has Grimlock? Interesting. He's a bugger to find in store.


I'm proud of being British, just not proud of living in Britain.

I'd be more than happy to be a proud British gent living it up in the US or the like.


And hmmm, I may have to ask you to send me a TRU reissue Inferno some time closer to crimbo SC, when the real money comes in! He's the last one I'm really after G1-wise.

Good luck finding Classics SS. It's pot luck whether can find him now or not.

Just ordered Binaltech/Alternators Rodimus/Hotrod from toyzandgamez.com, since they won't be getting anymore Alternator Mirage's in stock (e-mailed them to check stock levels as it suggested on the site, said something about Hasbro not making any more?) so I thought I'd go for the next best thing :)

Just hope the bugger doesn't get lost in the royal mail backlog :P
