Any money I get must go towards Soul Of Chogokin Daimos. It must be mine. Kinda annoyed I didn't know about it before I spent about £50 on Revoltech stuff.

Still, should see some nice little packages arriving this week.

When you've got a collection that goes from the extremes of Movie to Animated via G1, pretty much anything fits in. And Sledgey gotta have Dynamo. Wanted a toy of him since I was... hell, for as long as I can remember, come to think of it. Just hoping Bandai will do a Dai-X as well.

Since there are no new Skywarps or Dead Ends due out, and MP Grimlock is still far away, there will be no Transformers for me this Christmas.

I'm getting this, this, and this.

=D

i would say xybertoys but they've also risen the price of there henkeis by £2, you could shop around on ebay or you could check the currency rate against bbts and see if it aint to much

personaly i'd do this :

- xybertoys
- Ebay
- BBTS
- kapow

bit iffy with spendin to much on henkeis, even though they are so much kooler

I saw it, cheers. =D

It's a shame I had to lose all the ratings from before but it was in desperate need of fixing.

I've even thought of a few more improvements but I don't want to upload it all over again.

The DVDs are like £45 each. And they only contain two episodes... Japan's DVD prices are totally crazy.

Evening all.

I've spent the last couple of days bashing.

Would you like to see the result?

I still need touching up a bit of course.

a useless torso?

was that henkei tc? or ur own starscream repaint?

News Credits: 2 · by **Tekka** » Sun Dec 14, 2008 5:30 pm

Don't be silly. He dismantled a Botcon Thundercracker, because he is THAT hardcore!

News Credits: 5 · by **Sledge** » Sun Dec 14, 2008 5:42 pm

True fans use Botcon Thundercracker as the basis for their Starscream repaint.

You got it. I haven't got round to painting him yet.

He was Acid Storm.

I'm too cheap to buy an official TC.

Still needs a bit of work and coating in that stuff, but I'm pretty pleased so far.
Especially as he was my first!

I would like avatars back as well. One signature just isn't enough.

News Credits: 1 · by **oddsey** » Sun Dec 14, 2008 6:01 pm

Paints are Humbrol or Revell Enamels. Nothing special.
Got myself a pretty nifty airbrush/compressor which makes things easier and quicker!

News Credits: 8 · by **Electron** » Sun Dec 14, 2008 6:21 pm

did you have to strip the original paint off it?

I didn't.
Just painted straight over anything that was already there.

Well, it's looking good. If I had any artistic talent, I'd probably have gone that route instead of getting Henkei TC.

Ok, making my sister buy me Henkei TC.
