SNIPED AGAIN!!!!!


I led and Energon Galvatron auction for 3 straight days with my maximum bid as $130 just to make sure (was outbid once in this auction before putting this max bid in). With a second to go the auction price shot up from $81 to $132.50.

I am really hating ebay and snipers right now....they all deserve a good hiding....a hanging's to good for them.

So - after MB said that the scouts were worth every penny I decided to go and buy one. However I couldn't make up my mind which one (clocker, skyblast or strongarm) so I bought all three. I must admit I am pleasantly surprised with them and glad I took MB's advice. I think clocker is my favourite due to the fact that he is slightly more poseable. Thanks MB.

Oh and before I forget Boots in Bradford had a grand total of zero Transformers items.

i know that feeling, i ordered the infiltration TPB Aug 9th, which was out of stock, so the 'delivery date' was in mid sept. well the date came around and i recieved an email to inform that it would be delayed until Oct 23rd!

Found movie Wreckage today in the local city of Aberdeen, just got him. Also saw '74 Bumblebee, got him incoming soon so I didn't see any need to buy him due to that, FAB 08 Bumblebee, Barricade and Megatron in the local and Aberdeen Woolies. Forbidden Planet just had role play items as they're new 'TF's.
Wreckage isn't bad, nice articulation, nice alt mode, good robot mode and his wrist blades are very nice.

Ok
Finally bought the evolution of a hero set in Tesco's and have to say that the concept Camero is possible one of my favourite figures yet, these are the only two movie figures that i own and will be added to my Bumblebee collection, although i want to get a Prime to add to my Prime collection as well but i am unsure as the ones i have seen look like stinking piles of turd....

any suggestions???, is there a smaller deluxe prime at all or is it just the massive turd one that i see everywhere?

@ RED

Transformer juniors were and still are a highly collectable japanese line of toys, just do a search on T'Bay for Transformer Jr, worldwide and you'll see the 3 pack that i'm gonna sell, and as for Punch, he is complete with instructions as well I'll post a pic soon

I believe that in the last 30 seconds or so of an auction, the hired site runs an automated script to place the bid.
Bid sniping sounds like a very profitable business to me. I may have to get into it to help complete my collection- or at least bring it up to date :-?


What I believe to be Dough-bots package to my brother came today! have to wait till sixish to open it though. But I look forward to it!



I finished reading the spotlight comcis me bro purchased. They rock! I love how each is linked into different (or the same) universe! Plus, the freebie comics in the back of each rock! I love the first bit of the movie adaptation!


I have me bro's three classics seekers next to me. Damn they are fine. I think Dirge is my fave. Now we just need to buy one more SS and two more Dirge to complete the set.


Ye be welcome Jazzy lad. I suggest getting pretty much any scout figure you find, maybe excluding Energon Offshoot. They are true beauties they are!

Funnily enough, I only found out about that function recently. And I've had him since late July! :P

Great playability these Deluxes!

Yay, tis my birthday today me hearties, tis been 25 years i been stuck on this worthless hunk of rock.


(Got £50 from family/friends, not sure what I'll spend it on yet, trying to think of something TF related, got Barricade and Blackout on order, though my cousin works at his local Co-Op department store, and has offered to put Leader class movie Megatron aside for me, so that leaves £10 :), might save that for next weeks' IDW TF books)

Ye wouldn't be confusing Dirge with Ramjet there would ye? Cos it'll be mighty expensive to buy 2 more Dirges.

Pretty much any scout eh? I'll have to keep a look out for them but imagine it'll probably only be TRU that have them still in stock

BTW - Happy B'day Airlift

Happy Birthday Airlift.

I dont trust that Megatron auction. He says 'If you use the buy it now button' but tharr be no BIN button. He also says he will stop the auction early if it reaches a reasonable price.


Dough-bot, there is a voyager Prime. It isn't a deluxe, but it's smaller than the giant turd class. Er, I mean leader class.


With all of this wreckage love, I'm starting to get tempted to get him.
