@potter, you got a £45 fig for fathers day :shock:

@ tekka, what is in those waves do you know?
i might want summat, but...*shrugs*
@nova, id go for both

or maybe voyager sentinel and ultimate O-P

well, had an early birthday haul, consisting of buying myself RTS ledgends prime and screamers (finally! one with proper legs!) and getting dotm commander sentinel from nova.
yays for all.
i found out that both sentinel and optimus primes suffer from wreck-gar syndrome, adn that you can combine sentinels weapons.
basially, put his shield in hosepipe mode, have him hold it by the clip so that the shield part is at the top, and the using the cutout of the shield slide the sword into it.
it works, trust me.

pics may be possible but doubtful.
might dump a how-to on ArmadaSentinel though...

I might take Legends Bumblebee off your hands if there's a spare going. I have Henkei Cliff, but never got Bee, and the gold one didn't have the right head to be Goldbug.

It's a terrible toy really, and I do have Classics Bee, but I like my mini-bots...well, mini.

Probably looking at £4 per figure, and shipping is free because I can send things from work at no cost to myself.

opened up the dotm crankcase i got the other day...he's unclipped! yes!
but tbh i dont know why they had to clip them for safety reasons when the claws are made from the softest plastic ive ever seen. there's no way a kid could stab himself in the eye with that, ive tried.

Put it this way, my 2 yr old (3yr old as of tomorrow) plays with transformers (due to me hehe) and your right he probably would be able to hurt himself, especially seeing as its 5+. But if a child is playing with a tf no matter what age, a baby could pick it up and do some damage with something sharp, no matter how soft the plastic is. believe me, my daughter (nearly 1) does it all the smeggin time

Just UK or also to Germany?

Also, I've just placed my 4th order for The Maxx volume 2, if this one gets f**ked up again due to once again not actually being in stock, I'll break down and pay the amazon price and then punch the kitten to death. :BOOM:

I can't believe how many weeks I've waisted waiting for this to be delivered just to be disappointed over and over again.

Yup, free shipping for you too. ;p
