yeah, all plain grey, not a speck of silver in sight...but if you want it , you want it and nothing will stop you from getting it.
here's my latest audio-visual offering, a DOTM Ratchet review: http://youtu.be/k9tIcP8O8ZY

Turns out the toys Gen spotted at Toymaster were the PCCs and not the HA basics. Sorry to have got your hopes up guys.

No problem man no one is finding HA basics in the UK

Is it bad that i'm not too sad about that?
i don't really want a box full of crappy army men leftover from these rad robots.

I just got an E-mail from Toys'R'Us saying there's a 3 for 2 offer on DOTM figures. Legends Bumblebee with playset was also pictured in the e-mail.

ach, was to be expected, my hope was already shallow enough that I'm not too sad. Eventually, eventually. I hope Hasbro eventually names one of the HA guys Trakker though, eh?

Took a risk on a Crankcase from Tesco and am happy to report that he is unmutilated.

The scout 2 packs were Walmart exclusives that made it over here the other year, iirc they were all straight repacks of previously released figures. The Asda Home on Teeside Park was overflowing with them at one stage. As for the wtf wrongly labelled as a deluxe I have no idea, new one on me, certainly not worth £80, probably not worth £8.

but yeah what do asdas have in normally now?

No idea, havn't been to Asda in a while.

Can anyone help me out with a Minicon? As you guys may be aware I've been putting together 2 bagged sets of the blind bag Minicons that Tesco have been carrying for JRFitzpatrickIII . With the ones I just got in from Pretender Skywarp I thought I was at target but getting ready to send them realised I was still short a Bodyblock. If anyone has a UK version still in bag that they're willing to part with I'd love to hear from you. I can trade heavily in your favour if you still need Heavytread, Makeshift, Flatfoot, Suppressor, Brimstone or Blight.

I'm also still looking for a Backstop for myself and a couple of Cloudrakers (one for me, one for PS) but getting hold of that last Bodyblock and getting that batch away is top priority right now. Thanks guys.

Great to see the blue-and-yellow Sideswipe in the UK
Also, id like opinions; im planning on customising my Generations Sergeant Kup into a custom Crosshairs based on G1 Targetmaster Crosshairs. Is it worth it?

bit of a random thing to go for but looks like it would work quite well.

yeah, im gonna try find a different head, maybe RTS Perceptor. Any recommendations? Heres the original box art for Targetmaster G1 Crosshairs btw:

yeah i think percys head would fit.
what about the gun?
just paint up kup's rifle?
looking at it i think rts cyclonus's friend would be adequate.
more than adequate, in fact.
but that's just from memory, nova has cyclonus not me.

double post, but...
ultimate prime is on pre-orde at forbidden planet i have made a thread.
yays.

Im probably gonna leave the gun, and i can try out Nightstick with Kup, so i just need a spare Perceptor head...

I have a perceptor that i may be willing to sell if ArmadaP wants to buy swap the rest of my rts/generations. you could could use the body to make a custom soundwave???!

so's I walks into my smyths today to see what all this price reduction hullabaloo is about. sure enough dotm stuffs is reduced. but what else do i see? a host of electrostatic jolts...meaning only one thing... I'VE MISSED ALL THE TERRADIVES AND TOMAHAWKS!!!!!!!!RGRRGAHAGAHGHAGAHGAGHAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHR!!!!!!!!!!!!!
