So the son of the Emperor of Brittania is trying to destroy what will be his one day because his father didn't go after the people who killed his mother, rather than going after the people who killed his mother?

:roll:

Cos that makes so much sense.

no offence Tek, but it sounds stupid

*blasts MB's next bad pun before he can write it*

See, told ya I was gonna smoke 'em before they got a foot through the door. All hail mind bullets!

They also didn't mention he's like 5th in line to throne, and the fact he was exiled from Britain, and send to live in Area 11.

He's also a git and I hate him. The bad guys in this show are more like the good guys to me. Trust me, if you watch it you'll love it.

MA BABIEZ! NOEZ!!! :sad:

As you can tell, I'm bored. I'm waiting for the windows service pack updater to finish it's work, so I can go back on starcraft's battlenet.

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOORING.

I wanna see more of Universe Silverbolt. I no longer care about combiners, but i must have Hotspot, Motormaster, Scattorshot and the horrorcon team leader. They look awesome as ultras.

I hope we get bot mode pics soon... :-(

I'd better have my revoltech roddy delivered tomorrow or I'm going to start getting tetchy!! In the meantime I'm getting the hang of some of the harder songs on Guitar Hero 3 (hard difficulty) - I'm starting to get good if I do say so myself!

News Credits: 6 · Sun Apr 06, 2008 6:19 pm

pfft. I can play 'Through the fire and flames' on expert (at least the first 5 seconds

)

Some of those songs are way easier in real life. I thought 'huh, I can play slither with my eyes closed while doing a jig in real life, might be able to do that on GH too!'. Boy was I wrong. That thing's all over the place.

The chorus is on ONE string in RL ffs!!!

I remember playing SCOM on gh, and then trying to play it in RL. First few times it just didn't work. But now, it does. GH makes for excellent coordination and dexterity practise- maybe even speed practise too.

I really like the revoltechs. I'd love to have Prime, UM and Roddy. Can't afford them though

If I get that grant, those'll be mine though, oh yes they shall!

Picked up Movie Landmine yesterday from Toys R Us, and to my surprise he's actually pretty good! A little bit fiddly with the wheels and suspension, but very posable and has a cool head.

So I've been and purchased Prime, but before I open him I'm gonna need a couple more questions answered.

1. He has no battle-damage, have I got a rare version or have I bought something else that isn't 20th Anniversary?

2. He has a die-cast chest, does everyone else's have a die-cast chest?

I want to know before I open him, as it was the last one (they had 5 on saturday!). I don't want to destroy the value of the figure by opening him if he is a rare variant.

As I said the prime that comes with the talking base has no battle damage and brighter colours than the original 20th aniversary prime that we got in the uk. They all have the diecast chest.

You have this - Gallery

The first 20th prime that came out looks like this - Gallery

That's just DVD Prime isn't it? He has no battle damage.

News Credits: 1 · Mon Apr 07, 2008 6:53 am

If he has a base that you can press and it speaks, then it is DVD Prime.

News Credits: 4 · Mon Apr 07, 2008 7:11 am

Cheers guys, I can open him now without any worries. :grin:

I've seen them rehearse/jam several years back (when they were still called DragonHeart). Scarily they only play to about 50% of their full ability. :shock:

I'd be jealous but unlike Herman Li I didn't get my hair stuck in the ceiling of the venue that night. :lol:

News Credits: 4 · Mon Apr 07, 2008 8:24 am

Phew! I'm exhausted now. That Prime is a pain to transform - he'll definitely be staying in one mode at home.

Cool huh?

He looks awesome when surrounded with alternators.

I never use to think they were real- just something out of a movie. They are really skilled. But not my sorta music really.

lol at getting hair stuck in the ceiling. What the hell was he doing?

He is very cool, even if he is a pain to transform (although getting him from alt to robot is easier than I was expecting.

He's gonna be displayed with my alternators as well, which means I now, somehow, have to find somewhere to show 'em off properly.

Behold!

I've dedicated a whole shelf to alts and Prime (It's a big shelf. I have about 13 alts on there and prime).

Mon Apr 07, 2008 1:26 pm

my 20th Anni OPs is in a shelf with 11 other OPs, with 2 other OPs on other shelves...and when TFA OPs arrived he will go on the shelf with the other 12 OPs, or maybe with the 2 other OPs that arent on the OP shelf

is that a record for using the word OP in this thread?

News Credits: 1 · Mon Apr 07, 2008 1:30 pm

It could well be

My 20th Anniversary OP is on a shelf with my Movie Legends OP and my Classics, which isn't very impressive given that all of my collection fits on one shelf

That's alright - all my modern Tfs (Alts, classics, Titaniums, MP's) fit on one shelf and thats the way I'd like to keep it. My G1 stuff has a shelf of it's own though.
Modern bots
Modern cons

p.s. Waaaah! Where's my revoltech rodimus!!!

Mon Apr 07, 2008 1:45 pm

WST OPs
KO RM OPs
Movie Voy. OPs
Super Fire Convoy
Armada OPs

G1 Reissue OPs
Legends Cybetron OPs

On other shelves:
RID Spychanger OPs

There will be at least 2 more when TFA hits the shelves

Wow, I feel like I should list the locations of my Prime's now.

Here goes:

On top of the Music Centre:

On top of my chest of drawers:

Movie Prime (Voyager)

On the dressing table:

On top of a box in the middle of my bedroom floor:

Hmm - I don't seem to have that many Primes (unless I'm forgetting some)
