It is still fairly freely available online for not too much over the RRP.

no sorry, i like my jetfire as he is. (ive got the powerlinx one btw) i bet you could find those flaps if you looked, i once lost all of tarantulas' legs and found all 4. it took days, but i found them in the end.and now he is my oldest complete figure.
i don't really like the look of cyberverse preview prime, i wanted to cos cyberverse is just better legends but prime looks too spindly. might get the one with the trailer though.

Anyone up for a group hunt?

transformers-universe-mini-con-sweet-figures-t71569.php

Fitzpatrick is looking for 2 bagged sets of the blind bagged UK Minicons. If enough of us are interested in helping out and keeping the Rikkomba collection up to date I reckon we should be able to help out. He's offering to pay for additional doubles and there's the opportunity for swapsies between us to get anyone interested up to a full set as well. Obviously this is only worth doing if a few of us are up for the hunt so sign up here. Gotta catch 'em all!

Howdy there folks, long time! Busy busy busy and all that

Got a proposition for ye. I'm currently arranging to order a case of generations deluxes from bbts to cover my last needs for this half of the year, and now have four figures that need loving collectors!

Figures left::

1x Wheeljack
2x Thundercracker
1x Kup

So if you want any of these figures, please let me know asap. I'm also splitting this case over on tfw and posted a few moments ago (sorry guys, one of the UKers over there was like a hawk on the spare Warpath and got his commitment in seconds after I posted...)

Here's my post in the UK toy Discussion thread over on tfw::

FOLKS, let's chat generations.

I've just realised that there's at least three figures I want from the bbts Warpath case- Wheeljack, Warpath and Scourge. Maybe Kup, but I'm happy to let that one go.

Is anyone (several peeps maybe?) interested in going in on a case together and splitting the spoils? Would save us all a mass of effort and trouble.
I'm happy to sort out the case and divvy it out if we can make up the numbers.

So, if we can find peeps for the following::

1x Warpath
1x Wheeljack
2x Thundercracker
1x Kup

First come first served I think is fair, but let's sort this out! BBTS' guess is $50 USD for shipping, making the case shipped to the UK cost £94- that's £11.75 per figure. Shipping to individuals would depend on whether you want it loose or MISB, but I imagine no more than £3.
Really need to allocate every figure if we're to do this. I'm keen though!

EDIT:: Maybe PM me about it, keep the toy discussion thread clean cos I'm not sure how related this really is.

So there you have it! If you're interested please PM me asap so we can start getting money to change hands. The sooner this happens, the sooner we can get it sorted and we can all wait eagerly for some lovely not-released-in-the-uk plastic crack!

EDIT:: Two Thundercrackers left, this has split quick! We're up to four seperate buyers now.

I'll put them to one side until you tell me when/where you need them

One Generations Thundercracker left folks! Will be MISB case fresh, if you've ever wanted a classics Thundercracker then, at around £13 to you, now is the time!

aww cool!! ima get me an undercracker

News Credits: 6 · Wed Mar 16, 2011 9:41 am

Well, the whole case has been allocated, pretty damn quickly too.

For those of you who asked but too late...I am sorry. I strictly made it first come first serve to save myself some pain, but none the less I feel a bit bad.
I wish you luck finding the figures you want, and do recommend arranging a case group order since it makes things so much cheaper and easier. bbts ftw.

dangnabbit.
just read all the posts from C_C's first onenow...
gone before i had even read them :sad:

News Credits: 6 · Wed Mar 16, 2011 12:15 pm

Tell me about it. Four figures were gone in the first hour, the last Thundercracker took longest. But even that was gone about three hours after I brought the idea to the fore on tfw.

If you guys can arrange it, I do recommend it. It's $156 for the wave case, and then divvying it out amongst the group. But damn is it worth it, each figure cost about £14 to the peeps in the group, and since I don't need to ship mine a second time it cost me £12 a piece for Warpath, Wheeljack and Scourge.

I SERIOUSLY recommend it.

then tell us lot first not tfw!

on an unrelated note look what i made: >8[] (gnashing teeth smiley)

I go there more now because they treat UKers better. We're not just stuck in the sightings forum, we're in the toy forum, we've got social groups, there's more UKers there, and boy are these forums awkward and garish.

Traaaitoooor!

News Credits: 6 · Wed Mar 16, 2011 1:52 pm

Don't you guys ever wonder what happened to all the other old ODBers? They all left.

I recommend at least expanding to more tfs sites. Helps build connections so you can always get the figures you want.
