Damn, my local Tesco has just restocked last week with waves that have already sold through. There was a reshelf in progress the other night though so it may well still be worth a look see this week.

I dont care how crap my day at work was, cause when i got home the Badass had arrived!
I luuuuuuuuuvs my MP08 Grimlock, and when he finally moves off my desk he's gonna use MP02 Magnus as his personal transport unit!

You mean the Universe legends Stealth and attack teams, Amazaon are selling some of the individual figues from those for £6ish each.

On the Subject of Universe, whoe's hopingg that they repaint the Leo Prime into Razorclaw?

i kapowed it, i decided to get the 2 henkei teams and wave 4 legends minus animated starscream, i managed to strike a deal with red leader

they got offers on btw

as for henkei grimlock, still don't see the appeal, maybe if i saw one in person at AA i mite change my mind

as for the razorclaw repaint maybe, but won't he be to big? it will be the whole powerglide thing all over again

by **ThunderThruster** » Mon Apr 06, 2009 2:25 pm

Dunno, how big is Uni Leo Prime?
Razorclaw is supposed to be a gestalt leader so up to leader class is exceptable, look at Onslaught and Silverbolt!

He's just a little shorter than Silverbolt, and looking at him he could make quite a nice Razorclaw. With a few modifications of course; his faceplater needs a little extra deco, and maybe articulating the fingers would be a good idea.

And these silly panels on his hips need to go in a better place, they ruin the look I think.

Didnt think he was gargantchuan! now we just have to sort out the rest of the predacons!

I reckon Asda, TRU & Tesco's will have then in soon for about £3.00 per figure so I only bought the Cliffy Henkei pack from Kapow.

The Henkei are only doing the minibots so Hot Rod doesn't count, shame the didn't do bumblebee themselves though, serve them right for not doing deluxe Cliffy with a remolded head.

No talent for repainting here, that's why.

Yeah, I'll take 'em both of your hands. The Brawn is the version with the black tyres isn't he? If so, it's a done deal.

I've seen pics of a version with green tyres, but can't find the comparison thread over at TFW2005 that had it in.
Might have just been an earlier version/proto.

Give me a minute or two and I'll PM you my particulars!

The Red version has been confirmed as a custom I think.

still i want

i've started to make a list of stuff i reli wanna pick up at the AA

and i'm looking forward for the gentai clear starscream, i avoided mirage because im happy with my henkei

i'm very unimpressed with the ROTF figures so far but red sideswipe is a must, hope hasbro take notice

devastator is butt ugly, and the whole fallen thing doesnt interest me so far, but when i see the movie i will probably change my mind

Were not getting this, if recent news is to be believed! Goddamn it Hasbro, this is the repaint that should have been done, now its gonna be a botcon exclusive! This is gonna start another Thundercraker styled thing all over again! A plague on both your houses Hasbro!

by **The Chronic** » Mon Apr 13, 2009 11:44 am

Its ok, one day I'll be rich and will be able to buy all the Robots I like, hopefully

went to a few car bootys over the long weekend, picked up a remote control robot dinosaur, a robot dog (from doctor who) an old robocop toy with removeable helmet and chest plate intact, the robocop trilogy on DVD and a batmobil that has 3 'modes' no TFs though

see although i would be tempted to get this guy, unless he's attendees exclusive

i will have the same type of feeling behind him like i do with powerglide, which is he's to big, and unless he's a deluxe and combines i won't be happy

i don't think its gonna be as big as the TC fiasco, as razorclaw aint a big a character as TC
