He's actually in my top five (or so) figures I own, really poseable for the scale and easier to fit on the shelf they the voyager version.


Yep. 'Styles may vary' can bollocks, make those freaks bring them all out and let you choose.

Word and fo' shizzle. Take the catalogue number to the checkout and say you want to view the item. They should bring out one of each that they've got in stock. Both of my local Argos stores have always been good about it.

And praise be to Tekka for hooking (ho ho! See what I did there?) me up with Classics Devastator. Now to just get Scavenger's vehicle mode sorted out.

I got more Robot Heroes today.

Image

Not really a very good picture, but I'm feeling lazy right now.

Got Thrust, Kickback, Ironhide, and Blaster.

I have to say I'm a little disappointed in them. They are much smaller than previous Robot Heroes, and Blaster and Ironhide have the worst poses ever.

They look like a pair of hunchbacks, and their heads are positioned in such a way that they cannot even look their enemy in the eye. I have to turn their heads to the side so they're looking over their shoulders just to get them to stop staring at the floor.

Really disappointed by that.

Still waiting on Frenzy and Arcee. No big deal, I'm not really in a rush for those two, so whenever they get here, they get here.

Also Thrust's... "Thrust" for lack of a better word (Jetstream?) comes out of his ass...

I could only come up with one caption for this: "I'm the real Thundercracker!"

:lol:

Your Robot Heroes are inferior to mine, by the fact that they belong to you. :P

I keep them on my desk so I can play chess with them, other wise they'd be in the display cabinet with everything else.

In other news, I've decided I'm going to have to pass on MP Grimlock, and anything else coming out that's not Skywarp or Dead End.

I absolutely have to start seriously saving to go away next year so this is probably going to be my last TF purchase for a while. I also have to lose a little weight to make sure I can fit into my costume.

So I'm likely going to be quiet for a while. Though I will still be lurking and posting the odd bit of spam.

Don't forget about me you guys. :cry:

I've done something that I haven't done in years. I actually bought something from woolworth's they actually had something worth buying, that being animated swoop. They still had the usual crap and I missed my chance to get those minicons but I atleast got swoop who's waiting paitently to be removed from his plastic prison.

Want me to look for those minicons for you here? They had plenty last week and they were still half price. That's if you want them that badly of course, I know I did.

Let us remember the day on which Tekka, or Takka, decided to act just like his giant metal idol to bravely run away. :P

Don't forget to actually come back Tekka. Have a nice time on your holiday from Transformers. :D
