Fair enough, I'll probably count my half a mini bot as a whole figure, so you might as well count your whole ones as one :wink:
On a completely different subject, everyone keep their eyes peeled, I've currently got a couple of mosaic pieces that should be released soon as well as a Deaths Head piece in their bumper 1 year celebration event :grin:

:shock: You mean you don't know! Where have you been the past almost but not quite year! :shock:
Time to do my good deed for the day then and introduce you to the wonders of mosaics! Basically, they are little one page comics based on Transformers from any continuity and any character :D There's currently 102/103 pieces out, so you've got a lot of catching up to do :wink:
Here's the Deviantart page so you can start catching up :grin:

http://transformers-mosaic.deviantart.com/gallery/

You've got a lot of pages to get through, so get started now! :grin:

yeah, even if he is th chaos bringer, unicron is appealing, but then i think any planet sized TF would!

Unicron features quite a lot at the end of Armada and I think quite a lot throughout Energon, but then not at all in Cybertron, which btw is the worst of the three by miles! :grin:

All you need to do is send 'em an email saying that you would like to cancel your subscription as you are changing to Virgin. Say that you are V unhappy that, as a loyal viewer Sky want to charge you so much for Sky+ when you can get the superior V+ box (which is HD) for just £45 installation. (It costs £75 at the mo, and you have been offered a further £30 off as you are a broadband customer) :D
If they wish to get in touch regarding this matter, they can call you, but you would only be interested if they can offer Sky+ for free.
When they ring, they will prob say they can give a free Sky+ box, but would have to charge £75? installation. Stick to your guns though and ask for free installation or you are gonna cancel. B-)
My Sky+ box became faulty and they replaced it totally free with a brand new 'un. It was about 3 years out of warranty, and I even put in an old dead hard drive and took out the bigger one I had put in it a year or so ago!! :lol:

And as for Animated.

http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/showthread.php?t=161859

Updated each week with the torrent for the episode about an hour after it's aired in the US! :mrgreen:

The torrent for the opening 3 parter looks like it's dead though.
If ya want to PM me an address, I'll put the file on a CD/DVD and post it to you!

Of course I might be a dangerous weirdo who is gonna stalk you! :shock: All I can say is, that isn't the case, although that's what a dangerous wierdo would say I suppose! :-?


Actually, people do say that I'm a bit mad/strange. I prefer to call it eccentric/different! :lol:

To be fair to 'em, (this time) it isn't that simple. They have to fit a new LNB (bit on the end of the dish arm) that has more than one output and also run a second cable to your box.
Thinking about it, they MIGHT not do the install totally free, but they should offer the box at least. But do try for the all free option, they don't like to lose any customers, esp to Virgin! :lol:
What package do you have? If it's the whole lot (Movies/Sport) then you are maybe still on for a totally free one IMO.

Use this Email address: james.murdoch@bskyb.com
I'm sure it doesn't get through to him, but ppl usually get a better response than the Sky 'contact us' option

Nothing new. My bro received Cybertron Unicron; nice little figure, and a shoe-in for Bludgeon.



The velvet revolver concert last night was awesome too. Beer was everywhere, the mosh pit was like getting punched all over (I expected nothing less :P), and my god Duff Mckagan is huge!



And of course, lol at Slash and his top hat. Awesome dude.

^ That really is evil! You can get Henkei Grimmy for £15 shipped you know? Rammy I don't know about. We got ours off of amazon, so it was pretty hassle free.

Does seem pricey :o .Got my Ramjet off ebay a couple of months ago for £14.99 inc. postage!

Will be finshing my classics collection with the Henkei figs. though as the price of the first wave of classics figures has rocketed.
