Good to see somethings never change then Don't suppose Hasblo's given us Brits a release date for Animated toys yet?

Serious??!! Oh man, that's almost as funny as my question about whether Hasbro was treating as properly!
Ow! My spleen!

I live to amuse

There's a thread up in the toy forum concerning rumours as to the size of the Animated toys, but no release date yet I think. Still, we live in hope

I've got no idea what I'm gonna do after graduation - but I intend to have a short break before I look for a job. I may decide to do a masters, but that'll depend on what grade I get, as most of the ones I've looked at need a 2:1 or 1st. If not, I'm hoping to get a job as an environmental consultant somewhere (preferably in Yorkshire as I want to stay at home in York). How about you?

doomboy536 wrote:Tan, this guy knows his stuff so I'd take heed. Another factor to consider is that even if you do miss your offer by a grade or two, it's worth phoning up the university to see if they will still take you - my friend needed ABB to get on a Masters for Neuroscience and she only got BBC, but they still let her on! So its always worth having a go.

Yeah, ringing the uni is a good idea too. If they really want you to go there then they'll bend over backwards to accommodate you. That's how you can tell a good uni from a mediocre one. Bradford may not have that good a reputation, but I know people at Durham (with their supposedly great reputation) who have hated every minute of it. You have to go somewhere that you feel comfortable being for a couple of years, otherwise your life will be miserable until you eventually drop out or manage to make it to the end.

Aw Tekka, we can be confused about life together. Even if I do somehow get into Uni to do this course, I know there is nothing for me at the other side... At least you know you want to learn Kendo.

Wine at booze, it's booze super-lite


The ban's only applicable against none-collectors. With what you buy already Tek, I'd expect you to be buying those collectors katanas. So you shouldn't have any trouble.


Welcome back Frimal, you smelly git. Bow before your master!


I've talked to some people, and there's an estimated date of may-june time. But we shall see.

The thing is, I don't know where they draw the line. I own one sword. That's hardly a collection, and I'm not willing to risk seven years in prison by trying to get another one shipped into the country.

"A collection isn't in the numbers"

If you're worried, and seriously want to buy some katanas, I recommend contacting your LA about it and seeing what they had to say.


That way, you can bring em in without the risk of visiting the slammer.

Well, that's one of the more intersting 'welcome back' messages that I've ever received Oh, and May/June, but I won't have any money then! That's when all the IDW comic series are out! Damn it Hasbro, I want toys when I have money! Which I do at the moment Although, I suppose I could save my money... nah, that's crazy talk!

Now you know who holds the newspaper!



Hold the money man! Forget comics! They can be nicked off teh intraweb! TOYZ!!!!!!


I won't have any money either. Hopefully I'll have a job for july, so I guess I can save up some moolah for them...

Eek! Me and Doomboy have switched sentences!

How amusing.

Wait, newspapers?
What d'you mean forget comics! What about All Hail Megatron, Revelation! Reign of Starscream! Spotlight Grimlock! Heck, even Spotlight Wheelie! How can I forget those! I've been waiting for that Wheelie spotlight for years...




Sorry, I couldn't keep a straight face after my Wheelie line...

Dealer wrote::lol: How amusing.

Indeed. (Damn it! This place needs a Teal'c smiley!)

And wait a second, ODB Commander? Eh?

I can't help but smile either.


Joking aside, it does look to be quite good.




I'm lucky in that my bro buys all the comics. I read em for free

In the absence of any COs, and because no one else has stood up, I've taken the helm.



Pretty much the only difference is I get to put that in my sig
I feel all leaderly too



This place really does need a Teal'c smilie.
Should we find one and try and have it put on the roster?
Or maybe just post it ourselves as an image?

as commander, you should do the search for teal'c yourself

Lucky! All my brother gets are the Legend figures!
And yeah, Spotlight Wheelie does look quite good, I'm quite looking forward to it in fact... Did I just say that... about something Wheelie related! Aaaahhhhh! Its a sign of the apocalypse!
You know, I think I'll go hunt down a Teal'c smiley now...

IT HAS BEGUN!


I shall lead us to Teal'c-related glory!


It's weird isn't it? A badass, G1 acurate toy; an awesome looking spotlight.



What next? An upgrade to alternator status? Classics status?

Hoorah for Teal'c related glory! Dear Lord no! For Alternator Wheelie, although Classics would be fine ( ) as long as he doesn't come with a voice chip...

While the G1 character deserves to die, I think that can make him into a decent minibot for classics, or maybe even Animated. Just remove the gay voice, gay look, and gay paintjob, and he'd be awesome.




I RULEZ TEH INTRANET!!!

That Teal'c smiley looks far too happy.


SAD APOPHIS IS YOUR GOD!
