Overkill does look pretty spiffy! The colours really suit the mold well.

Still, nothing compared to Dragstrip. The poses that mold can do! And again, the colours really do suit! =O



By the by, if anyone comes across a Henkei Grimlock going cheapish, let me know. He's the last figure I need to be up to date on universe ;D

I definately want Henkei Red Alert seeing as its how he should be not a Fembot nurse like animated RA. Henkei Smokescreen looks pretty nice aswell.

WORKS OVER FOR CHRISTMAS NOW YAAAAAY!!!!. :grin:

I'm not so sure about Red Alert, I'm hoping for a universe release.

I just don't feel like I should spend an extra £8 for a straight repaint like that. Same with Smokescreen to be honest

I don't see the Henkei Smokescreen as being an improvement on the Universe version. For Red Alert... I'll go with whichever version comes with a lightbar. If both do, I'll go with Universe.

Got mine from Kapow Toys. Looks like they have sold out at the moment, but I'm sure they will get some more in. Drop 'em an email and ask.

Yeah.

They still have the other three exclusives there in the Universe category, he's obviously the most popular of the set.
Understandable in my opinion.

Although I am slightly tempted by Overkill.

I went to Cardiff, so I knew some sort of trouble was in store. Stepped off the train to a phone call from my Mum, her house had been broken into while she was out. I'd eaten six Olbas pastilles and didn't need this. This year sucks ***king donkey dick. Still, all seems well now and I finally found Legends Ironhide. Yay me.

I may be going away for a while once I've investigated :twisted: .

Universe Ironhide is in the house! Picked up as part of my "make Sledge feel better after spending two and a half hours traipsing round town finishing the Christmas shopping" package. Universe... er... the cement mixer (I'm gonna call him Mixmaster, so it doesn't matter what's on the box) and the police deco TFA Activator Bumblebee also adding to the pile of TFs I call my own.

Lovely few surprises the last few days. Got my reprolabel stickers for TFA Bumblebee yesterday (and now he looks truly fantastic), and today got a parcel, letter and christmas card from that canadian girl I mentioned before.

Cannot wait for tomorrow. Sure, I'll have finished messing with my presents by 11am, but still! I then need to decide what transformers are going into storage, as I need the room for animated and universe.


Found a few links to a very good site by Matt Booker, where he has quite a few handy tf mods all planned out. I'm using them to mod my Ironhide to look straight this weekend.

He has quite a good one for making TFA BW's guns swivel forwards too

http://mattbooker.info/2008/10/24/ironh ... /#more-107

That's just one link, but I'm sure you can get to the main page from there.
