Nothing of real interest. Picked up alt Prime from Argos for crimbo, and'll be picking up Rescue Ratchet on Sunday (also from Argos).

Received Cybertron Smokescreen from summat my bro bought as a lot, so now he only needs Galvatron and Bruticus to finish Energon.


Congrats on SS Sonray. Can't wait to see some pics. You know how much I love fan reviews.


Merry hill was truly shite. Only Rescue Ratchet and Thundercracker, and a few other crappy tfs in TRU. Nothin in TK Maxx (surprise surprise), nothin in Asda, M&S had a broken SS and ironhide (movie) sitting on the shelves, and that's it.


But Next clearance had a Robosapien V2 for £43.50, so I'm gonna buy that in December. Always wanted one.


My bro got WST Devastator set too.



That is all.

Yep, if it weren't for the internet, this'd be a time for me to regroup my finance for the next tf releases.

Fortunately, there is always at least 1 tf I want out there :-P

They've had both Cloud and Sephiroth in and I've not been able to bring myself to buy either (I already have Tifa and Vincent). Now, if they'd just make a FFX-2 set they'd have plenty of my money.

I knew about the Turks, not Kadaj and Yuffie, but I'm done with FFVII characters unless by some miracle I can get Cloud with the Fenrir and find space for it.

The standard ones. Though possibly something a little less revealing for Rikku (why they couldn't release a FFX Rikku I don't know.)

In other news, I find I need a Starscream head. I have Frozen Megatron ready to deliver a speech, but a key prop is missing...

As well as the Alt Rodimus there was also the Titanium Menasor (black Tit Rodimus) and the War Within Grimlock bust.

G2 Jazz looks much better with G1 stickers. Thank you Reprolabels. Now, should I say I have a G1 Jazz, G2 Jazz, or G1.5 Jazz?

Also, where can you check stock on the Argos website? The link seems to have disapeared when they re-arranged, and since they are having a sale, I may pick up Wreckage if I can find him and give him a repaint into darker colours.

Ah, thank you. Though I see there are none in stock. Hmm, guess no Wreckage for me then. Ah well.

Keep checking around, somewhere is bound to have him in stock still. And always remember to check online.




Kinda funny really. Up until a month or so ago, Wreckage was everywhere. :P

If you want a Wreckage, try Boots if there's any large stores near you. They've been getting the Wave 1 deluxes in stock recently.

tbh, i think the only problem with G1 Dev is the lack of articulation, and the tempramental connectors!

That's a toughy Sonray. Can I say both?




I am still annoyed that Classics Devastator is only 5 parts, but I can live with it. At least they look nice together.

I loves him. He's for crimbo, but I can wait. There was only one in WW, so I was lucky.

I didn't know they did two repaints of Skyblast?

They both look the sex. If I had more money, I'd buy both.

hey guys, I used the argos sale as an excuse to get altenator ravage XK. at first when it came out i was like "yeah whatever" but now I have it I reckon its the single best alternator I've ever seen!

The jaguar vehicle mode is really nice but I'm just loving the ravage bot mode. talk about unique! its the only alternator I have displayed in robot mode at the moment, and having him in robot mode next to my tape player soundwave is just great coz the scaling seems just right.

Just so hyped about this figure that i had 2 let everyone know :grin:
