I picked up voyager Wreck Gar yesterday for a tenner, it was the american box with full english bio, but the 'Moving lifting forks' bit on the front was covered by a spanish sticker and the instructions are in spanish also.


I'll take any UK release of Wreck Gar, for a tenner doubly sold. They didn't have Atomic Lugnut as well by any chance?

Been taking advantage of RotF deluxes while they're half price at Tesco. 13 quid for figures that I'm not that crazy about is hard to justify, 6.50 less so.

Hy guys i'm trying to sell a camera it's a JVC camera, in excellent condition the box is abit tatty but the camera works just fine...theres one major flaw with the camera though...it runs on tapes to record...

I've been trying to sell it and this is pretty much my last resort, I doubt this but...


Would anyone here be intresting in buying it, I was originally selling it in the gazette for £60 but i'll sell it for only £50 here if anyone wants to buy it

It works with the computer and that asweell, great for reviews and that, I even have the cable for the computer

If anyones intrested let me know...please? :P

I was in Matalan in Stockton today and they had wave 1 Animated voyagers marked at 13 quid, if you've got a local branch it might be worth checking out. The forthcoming repaint may end up being the only non bumper battler abomination from Animated that I pass on, not pretty from the pictures so far.

No sign of Wreck Gar and Atomic Lugnut at the Teeside TRU, but not a wasted journey as they'd finally marked the Masters of Metallikato set down to an acceptable 15 pounds. After going through the shelf I managed to find a Whirl that didn't look like his face had been painted by a blind Albanian and a purchase was swiftly made. Gathering was down to 40 and BRB down to 30, but I'm holding out a bit longer for those to get reduced some more (it's a week before Zmas and they still seem overstocked on both). No sign of Perceptor and the Insecticons yet.

Heh, advice and sightings, I feel almost useful.

Take it there's been no word on a UK release of the Walmart Ultras or Target Leo yet?

I've only seen shelves full of Superion so far. Putting 2 of the same set to a case instead of 1 of each seems like a weird decission on Hasbro's part, everybody ends up overstocked on the first one that won't shift due to over ordering when the movie was in cinemas and it takes forever for the second 'assortment' to reach retail. We may even end up seeing these sold off to the bargain chains before the major retailers get them on shelves, although on balance that wouldn't be the worst thing in the world.

Since I'm likely to be a bit more flush when they do start showing up do you want me to see about hooking you up with a set DM?

Yea sure why not? :D
I asked as I#m visiting my grandparents over X-Mas and am currently planning out my shopping and should I see him on shelves preferably with boxing day pricing (do they still do that anyway?) I would so swoop him up to use with the upcoming upgrade.
I hope I see the remaining TFA stuff I need and a few good movie and Uni stuff. I think I'll go and pick up the Uni RH for a bargain and sell them for millions on ebay.

I'll give you a shout about the Combaticons once we start to hear about them showing up then. Personally I'm down for 2 sets with a couple of sets of the FP upgrade (asuming we get weapon modes out of the parts again with this one). Which reminds me, still need to pick up a second set of the Aerialbot upgrade.

Argos Where Is The Love?

Motto: "You Wouldn't Like Me When I'm Hungry"
Weapon: Sword
It seems that UK store Argos wants to get rid of a beautifuly sculpted toy, may it be a not very well painted one. But was worth around £50 a few months ago.

Old Masterpiece or 20th Aniversary Skywarp has no love with Argos, but will you while he's at £19.99

http://www.argos.co.uk/static/Product/p ... ORMERS.htm

Face it, If I had the cash (After buying dang presents) I would buy it at that price, especially when it costs £5 less than a ROTF voyager class figure :D

Plus, The Transformers ROTF movie memory 4GB stick is now £14.99, If it is a limited addition will the £5 less be justice for that Puke Green? Only you can decide

http://www.argos.co.uk/static/Product/p ... ORMERS.htm

And with the last note, wanna pick up a ROTF deluxe figure for half price? Well you can, and with recent outings I have made you may be able to pick up the Twins and many other new figs out there for just £6.49, excluding the price of petrol to get there :P
