Hey Pot, what is a Greebo? Like a Gegger?

I hate Argos, I really hate it. Ques! Of chavs! For miles! :MAD:

In fact, I hate most shops, unless I go at a wierd time, so there is no one else there. :mrgreen: *is not antisocial at all*

I want Landmine, but I do not want to go out and find him. ¬ ¬

I like shopping, but I don't like when people look at me funny for buying loads of toys, I prefer the interwebs, where people just know I like toys and have my name and adress :P

Megs looks ace, I am sooo geting him :mrgreen:



:???: I thought it was perfectly legible...

All you have to do is look down your nose at them, duh :P


The worst bit is getting passed prams and kids to get to the shelvse. They just park themselves anywhere... :?


I went into Donnington today at 11:30. It was practially empty! And I must say, that is the nicest Asda I have ever been in! So clean and fresh!


Sadly, they've realised their mistake and put deluxes up to full price :( I'll buy it later, once I've payed off alternators.



I don't usually go to epicheroes. Aren't their prices supposed to be generally awful?

Hehe, I ment it took quite a while to fix all the many errors before I posted. :oops: If I was not dyslexic I would not have bothered checking, and it would have been truly awful. Moving on!


You just said said "Asda" and "clean and fresh" In the same sentence, wierdo. :P

Done Ash. Awesome stuff! ;)^


I was really surprised by how nice the Asda was. There was but a handful of old people in there, and the staff were ever so pleasant!


So are you dyslexic or ain't ya? That many negatives in the same sentence is screwing my ability to figure out what you just said :lol:

Joking, I swear! :P

Voyagers have shifted up to £15 for some reason :???:

What lines are you buying into at the moment? You didn't follow the alternators craze did you? And you're lite on the movie line too right?

You forgot cheapskate :P

I'm no compleatist, I just get the ones I reallly like. There are still a few movie ones around that I want, but I have only ever seen one very broken Alt in the shops, and it was Swindle anyway. I'm no car person, and the robot modes look a bit meh on a few of the Alts so I never bothered. I suck, I know.

I do want some Robot Heroes though :oops:


Now to draw WT in Y-fronts :twisted:

The robot mode for Swindle is not bad at all. He's my favourite actually.

Now the Robot mode for Dead End, that sucks in so many ways, they may as well have called him Dyson.

I greatly prefer Sunstreaker. It was just meant to be. Hound was a pain to get hold of, but by god was it worth it. One of my favourite alternators.


My bro's buying all the robot heroes. Saves me money, cause I thinks they are brilliant.

Hmmm, dunno. Did they have any voyagers in today? I know there werent any on the shelves on friday but the price was still on there. I hate Asda for pissing about with prices. I once went to buy X-men 3 bcause i was up there with my dad a couple of days before and he got it for £7. 2 days later it was £14 :? .

Must admit, i was never too fond of the alts, far too fiddly in my eyes. aint too sure about robot heros either. I just pick up the bots i REALLY like, sod the ones i dont.

Anyone else watch Transformers on POP+1 last night? After the programme, the lil green dragon thing was showing pictures. One of them was of Hot Rod/Rodimus and he said, "heres a lovely picture of Optimus prime"..........i was like wtf??? Also, they had the series 3 credit screen on a series 2 episode (Revenge of Bruticus). How hard is it to to the slightest bit of research. Even my missus complained about it. What made it worse is, he then showed a picture of prime and said "and heres another picture of optimus" lol.

Btw, any good tips on picking up ko's???? I was thinking of buying a load of kncok offs of Maximus, Metroplex and all the other battle city bots and cons so i can make a big city.

I'm no good with KOs. I've got one in my entire collection.


I like catching transformers on POP. It's nice to see it on tv, even it is at 10 pm :P

I've put all my least favourite tfs into a storage box in my room.

MB - my bro used to collect TFs as well as me, but then he stopped. You'd just have to pace yourself if you were doing it alone (I know that sounds really wrong :lol: )

Space is a problem for me as well - I just inherited a 27 inch TV from my parents cos they bought a HD one for their room, and it took up my valuable display space - so we bought a wall bracket and put the TV up yesterday (however, the space I gained soon disappeared)

EDIT: Woohoo 500th post
