Weapon: Air Rifle
Rifle, face, cannon-- £20
Rifle, face-- £8.70
Cannon-- £12


No clue how much shipping is, won't get the invoice until the item's ready to ship.
I can't imagine it being much though. These parts would fit snugly into a small padded envelope.

Reading of a script by Simon Furman AND a showing of Revenge of the Fallen? Well, I know where I'll be on August 15th and 16th now.







As far away from Birmingham as I can possibly get.

Lol.




Somebody buy me an MP Grimlock...

I'm poor... I've just dropped a grand on a trip to the states... and I still have £600 for a week in a hotel left to pay. =(

Woe is me.

If I had the money... well, if I had the money for an MP Grimlock, I'd drop it on an SoC Daimos, and any leftover would go on Universe Blades. But if I had the money for that AND money over, I'd help. :-(

Weapon: Air Rifle
Just the faceplate and rifle for now, can't justify £12 on the cannon.

See, I'm not so sure about the botcon wreckers anymore. It doesn't seem such a hot idea considering Springer and Roadbuster are already released in the main line...

But we'll see.

Tekka- rent a car and sleep in that! =D
Off to see your lady friend?


It is indeed gonna be an expensive few months. I can't afford to spend any more money at all if I want to go out once a week.
But here's a breakdown of money woes from my perspective:

MP Grimlock- £100
TFA Ultra Magnus- £40-£50
TFA Safeguard- £20
Universe Hound- £13
Universe Cheetor- £13 (forget the henkei version, can't afford it. Considering not bothering with this one at all)
Henkei Dinobot- £18
TFA Wreck Garr- £25


Lucky I picked up the universe ultras on sale, I can tell you!

Thats £240 if everything is maximum price.
I'll have to get most of them on sale...
OR!

MP Grimlock can wait til May, when I get my third loan installment! Which is £100 bigger than my current installment! =D

I think http://www.toyzandgamez.co.uk have Henkei Cyclonus on pre-order and http://www.Kapow-toys.com have Hound available if that helps?

I've been out of the TF loop for a little while but I'm back on the boards. What's the UK consensus on MP Skywarp? I have MP Starscream Mk 1 and wondered whether the plastic is black or whether it's been painted black? When I transformed Starscream I saw the beginnings of stress fractures and I don't want that all over again.

You may want to put off your plans of attending.

Hi,

Thanks for registering for Auto Assembly 2009. We're looking forward to the convention and we're hoping that it's going to be our biggest and best convention ever. We're really excited about it and the new ideas that we have planned and we think that it's going to be a fun packed weekend.

For your information, we can confirm that the tickets you have booked are:

Phil Dickinson (7) - Adult Weekend

The numbers in brackets after the names are your ticket numbers. Please keep this email safe for your records should you need to contact us about your booking. We will send a proper written confirmation closer to the convention itself with a full information pack and we will hopefully send out e-mail updates in between but for now this will act as your booking confirmation.

As a first "thankyou" for registering, we have set up a "hidden" area on the Auto Assembly website for those who have pre-registered for the convention, and there you will find a selection of great free downloads - fanzines, jigsaw puzzles, wallpapers and much more! This page will be updated regularly between now and the convention so please bookmark the page and keep checking back! You can find the page here: **********************

----Snip-----

If you have any questions about the convention, feel free to email us or pop over to our discussion forum at Auto Assembly - Home where we'll be only too happy to answer any questions or comments you might have about the convention and keep checking on the website for all the latest news and guest updates as well!

Anyway, thanks for booking and we look forward to seeing you all in August.

Simon and Sven
Auto Assembly 2009
