Just had a look around my local shops (Eastliegh) for anything interesting....nope, sainsburys had nothing and Woolies had dlx animated prime & Blackaracnia, Prime & megs 2pack, the universe voyager repaints and a load of Movie Megs robot replicas. I can't be bothered asking at Argos anymore. Hopefully I can find a Universe sideswipe in Basingstoke TRU next week. :sad:

I had an amazing hunt.
ENtertainer was closed, so I went into argos who have a 25% off Animated deal. Activators were only £4 to begin with, so this means they're about £3 now. I consideredgetting Activ-Screamer but the "Styles may vary" stopped me. Glum, I got a sausage roll from Greggs and stood in the rain.
Then I saw a Tescos extra. I remebered you saying they had a deal on, so I checked it out. I saw the activators, but when I reached the voyagers my jaw dropped to the ground. On the shelf, a single, slightly manhandled Blitzwing. i had no idea he had reached our stores! I was going to get him off Ebay for christmas, but temptation was too much!
He watches over me as I type this, and I love im. Only bad thing is, his turrets always break off, His Angry visor has chipped paint, and once his turret got unfathombly stuck and took huge amounts off brute force to move. I didn't put him back as a tank for a while. But, I still love him.
Are Shockwave or Blurr ever coming here? My eye is focusing on them...
I am a very disgruntled Brit.

Patience young padawan. They are in waves soon after Swoop and Sentinel, so I'm sure we'll see them.

Animated is lasting two years after all; that's plenty of time to get all the figures released here.

w00t I fixed my TFA Jazz!
The guy that put him together forced a pin in his right shoulder the most difficult pin to get to to be exact into the wrong direction making a new pin hole. But it's OK now.

I want a second one to bash into Richochet.

It has fallen on our ears that Sainsburys is currently selling TFA deluxes for £5, AND that the new TFA wave, comprised of Swoop and Sentinel Prime, are being stocked and sold under this offer.


Tragedy, for your poor friend CC, as he has no Sainsburys to pillage.


£10+p&p etc to the sea dog that hooks CC up! ;D


how'd you know about that? have you been following me? *grabs M4 from solid snake* dealer you have 5 seconds to run...
