Well stop looking at it then!!

If you're after the set, grab one and a catalogue.

Take them both to the desk, and point out to the cashier that the set costs £18 in the catalogue, so that's what you will pay.


Sorted! ;)



They're obligated to have them at full price for 28 days or summat. Same as the city commander & skywarp set; I bet no one bought it when it cost £30.



I just ordered a set of ernie ball power slinkies from gak.co.uk.
Well chuffed; until I realise that gak.co.uk is the site that refuses to send any of my purchases to me, instead sending them to my parents.



WFT!?

I've changed the shipping address in my profile daily for the last two weeks, and still they sent my metal muff to my parents, and now my strings.

I hates them.

Don't know why, but Grimlock's not doing it for me. Hey ho, now to decide on the best way to make Thundercracker's guns stay in their sockets. Yes, he's here! :D

Just how we want it!

Now don't forget they'll release test shot images in the wrong colours first, then release it in different wrong colours then finally fix it. Oh hang on this'll be Takara not Hasbro...bring on the chrome!

He can't face the shame that he's outclassed by WST Grimlock anyway.

Prime has about 3 inches (I think? It's been a while since I was last in my own room) of head room, so Grimmy should be fine.

If that Starscream mold was in any way worth owning, I'd be tempted. Gonna have to check out what Universe and Animated stuff they've got though. Stupid not listing characters individually Argos.

It'll be worth buying when it's repainted black and purple next year, then takes its rightful place next to my Armada and Animated Skywarps. :mrgreen:
