Just back from late night shopping at Tesco Silverburn (Glasgow) with Sideways and Sideswipe! They had the deluxes, Voyagers, Scouts and Legends in cases to be unpacked so the full lot should be out tomorrow. Also spotted a box of Bumblebee helmets. No prices for anything but the deluxes which were £12.97 a piece.

They've got a fair selection of Universe Ultras and Animated bits and bobs too.

Happy hunting Y'all!

So, movie style lockdown and Bludgeon - sounds interesting, and it sounds like I'm going to be picking up the 3rd party company Springer when that comes out if Hasbro isn't planning on making one.

Sorry, I be drinking. I woke up to find that Mrs O had gone to Tesco and bought me Animated Jazz. I'm not sure what to do at this stage....

We're all still here dude, at various stages of activity. I find tfw's less garish forum colours more pleasing, so I generally go there now ;P

How's things dude?


Pot- Nah man, scouts have been around since Energon! Though I don't think there were any for Animated or the Classics Universe lines...


No new sightings, haven't been out hunting since Friday and won't be for a while! Got my Superion, got Inferno on the way, I'm content to wait until Sideswipe, BB and leader Prime are in the sales that'll come our way before purchasing.

Anyways, need that money for alton towers and space cakes! 8D

Result. Scored Banzaitron and Skyquake for a touch over 90 shipped and the last season of BSG tonight. I'll see what I can do about Razorclaw, Elita, Leozack and Thunderclash over the next couple of weeks (big payday this weekend from working bank holiday).

Something odd, has just occurred to me.
All those of us who have been panicking about Hasbro not releasing Animated Arcee, have been overtly worried about getting our hands on a piece of pink plastic!
