If you need a Skyhammer Tesco probably still has him and I heard the entertainer has started getting that wave aswell. As for Grapple I think Toys'R'Us is your best bet.

I went back to argos today just because it's right next to my bus stop and checked if they had any Human Alliance Basics. They had Wave 1 so I got myself Icepick.

There were plenty of Grapple, Strafe and Lugnut in the Teeside TRU at the weekend, no sign of Deepdive.

Can anyone else see a problem with this ball joint?

He reckons that he's glued the socket back together. Also when pushed he's 'set up' a paypal account, and yet already knows how it works well enough to stipulate a gift payment...

definatley not right, when i set up my paypal account to pay CC some money for my thundercracker, I had no idead how to send the money as a gift, he had to tell me...

and what a load of BS, that pics far too blurry to tell anything about that joint, looks fine to me.

ask him if he doesnt mind changing the resolution or making it smaller (less blurry) or something.
if he says he cba, then hes definately hiding something.

also, woot!
HA basics!
damn me and my empty wallet!

that is a shockingly bad photo, put the charger is out of the package and in his hands.
PS, does anyone know if any more tfs are going to be unveiled at SDCC or are those 4 prime figs our lot?
EDIT: I saw the (Hasbro) DOTM Deluxe Air Raid, Dark Steel, Armor Topspin and Leadfoot and I think that's it now. hopefully stuff will emerge on the Q&A Panel though

I have just seen some knew Prime toys like Skyquake and Wheeljack and they look epic have you guys seen the pics

News Credits: 4 · by **craggy** » Fri Jul 22, 2011 5:21 pm

loving that Skyquake is getting some attention. it's funny that for every wave of 4 bumblebee camaro repaints and such, that we're also getting some great comics guys like Straxus, later G1ers like Thunderwing, Skullgrin, Bludgeon, etc and G1.5ers as well as Animated imports like Lugnut and Bulkhead too, not forgetting the other newer/underutilised characters that are being given new life with various non-movie movie molds, HA Basics, PCCs and all that Stepper

would still like a mass release of Pyro, and new molds for Boss, Thunderclash and some of the other G1.5 characters.

Man, i chose the wrong 48hrs to stay away from a computer.

Can anyone give me the run down in like a few lines of what ive missed??

An mr w'lord, seriously, that guy is taking the piddle, ive had paypal for about 3 yrs and i still dont know how to use it properly!!!

News Credits: 7 · by **waaaaghlord** » Sat Jul 23, 2011 1:58 pm

Actually I'm going to take the high ground here and pay him. Let him know that I'm unhappy with the outcome and won't be trading with him again. And then update the feed back thread that I started for him with the relevant information and photos. As has been said here I've got a good reputation on here, mainly among us Brits but recently building trading bridges with members Stateside as well. Having paid him off despite my own reservations about the situation I don't see how I can come off as looking anything but good and it's not a major blow to the wallet. Not something I'm intending to make a habit of but I really find myself wanting to make a public, if politely worded, point about this guy.

Well im not fussed at all on the Prime figs, so thats good. Kinda only classics G1 im into so apart from the unicron reissue and the continuation of Gens, i aint missed alot....phew!

An Mr W'lord, i personally wouldnt pay him, that is because the amount of times ive been stung online, but i totally understand and respect why your doing it, and it just goes to show that you are a Knight in these dark times

Well I guess Brekshire takes about a month longer than everywhere else to stock tfs. I was surprised to see Skyhammer in stores let alone voyager Sentinel.
I'm really hoping we get to see Deluxe Mirage, Wheeljack, Soundwave, and more dreads as well as those rumoured leader Megatron and Shockwave figs at the SDCC, but they'll probably only have more bee repaints

bloody bee.
such an obnoxious, self centred, little twonk.

err pardon?

*sighs*
talking about bumbleface...

so yeah yesterday i was in an asda and they had 1 cyberverse commander, it was megatron and now it is mine.
all else they had was stealth force and activators.
they did have an interesting stealth force i dotn remember seein called "classic mirage", it was and F1 car, in green and white and red.

also nova, if i do get th fallen and we do trade, do you mind if its not misb?
cos i might want to take it out and look at it and stuff.
i wouldnt transform it probably, however.

Well i kinda mind but if you really must then okay. we could always open it together at your house.
By the way, does anyone else think that the dotm wheeljack has a really weird head (and i don't mean the einsteininess) his neck is really thin. deluxe soundwave is cool though.

guys, I can't decide which sideswipe to get... i want a new one but...well see for yourselves: http://youtu.be/SNs9pXz_Mrw

by **mustanguk** » Mon Jul 25, 2011 3:31 pm

I've got ROTF Sideswipe and HFD Sideswipe. I'd strongly recommend the Sidearm Sideswipe plus he's on sale at TRU at the moment. I can't get ROTF Sideswipe to stand up!
