Unlucky dude, just yesterday I bought a MISB Inferno off ebay for £23, but the guy sold the other one he had too... http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Transformers-RID- ... .m63.l1177
that'll have to do =P

My shopping list is now just roadbuster Ultra Magnus (looks quite nice in person) for animated, then I'm done!
Need to get henkei Red Alert and Hotshot, then onto ROTF leader Prime, BB and Sideswipe!



My recent purchases really cut down my needs list! Wreck Gar (deal sealed soon), Superion (same as Wreck Gar), Inferno, Breakaway...

Yeah, but he'll have to wait til I've squared my debts =P

Nah dude, I cancelled my Roadbuster order when the payment thing came through, had a true moment of clarity.

£18 for a head and a gun? No thanks, could buy henkei Red Alert for that!



I realised that, considering the sets FP produce and the fact that they're just about twice the price, it really isn't worth it for a head and a gun.


Roadbuster looks good enough anyways!

i do really like animated....but i get the feeling its only because its transformers...hell id probably watch beast wars an love it atm an i hated that when it was on lol.


If red alert is that hard to pick up i might target him next.....although i only picked up the reissue RA last year an hes pretty cool.


Only problem with the classic/universe line is it makes me miss G1 so so much its unreal....damn why cant they make some more updated versions...hell id die with happiness if they just modernised the G1 episodes with universe artwork!!!!

hmm i should watch beastwars i like the look of optimus primal

yeh i'm jus sayin henks red alert and smokescreen came out at the same time but smokescreen got a universe release while red didnt

i have to disagree with the cartoon, wouldnt be the same maybe a more hitech g1 orientated cartoon focussing on after G1 with cameo appearences or maybe eps of the rise of the cons during the golden age

I think someone has got a little explaining to do.
In case you didn't know, the TCC gestalt is called Nexus Maximus when in combined form.

Try googling the name 'Nexus Maximus'. (Results may not be suitable for young children or work!!)

Of course I've now gotta remember about it in three months time! I'd advise you to jog my memory just before AA.

Yeah, that's for an hour and a half and includes hire of nipple clamps and sling.
Add all the KY you can use for just 20p extra.



We'll sort out the cash for Swoop after.

Just been to Tesco (Bognor Regis) They had movie gravity bots, movie legends, Wave 1 deluxe (sideways, rampage, bumblebee etc) and Leader Class Prime and Megatron. None had prices up but they are on shelf.
Also Classics Voyager and Ultra classes are down in price to around £14 and £18 respectivly. Still no hound or cyclonus any where down south I can find *sigh*
I'm off to ride the space-time continuum like a big kahunna!
