Just hope the bugger doesn't get lost in the royal mail backlog

Amazon has Grimlock? Interesting. He's a bugger to find in store.

Amazon has a listing. I'll hopefully find out soon whether they actually have the figures.

It says that they have 5 left in stock. So I guess you'll have yours.

Did Toyzandgamez say anything about any alternators restock?
I know the alternators are discontinued, but I'm sure there's some stock knocking around in some places.

I've just been informed that my Grimlock has been dispatched. Should arrive end of this week or start or next. So if you can afford one I'd order it now.

dont care...just found out i have a new job, gonna finish my temp contract and, upon receipt of valid references, should start as an administrator for Clinton Cards on 5th November

only downside is i know have to wait a whole month between my hauls (been on weekly pay for 2 months)...and i have to wear a suit & tie (ties make me hot...and not in the good way)

Like i said...not in that way...unless its a beautiful woman wearing nothing but a tie...then that would make me hot in that way

by **Airlift** » Mon Oct 15, 2007 4:31 am

Didn't ask about other alternators, but if you go to there site, there's a contact button/link on there so you can double check. I've already got all the ones I want(unless they change their minds and make a Kup repaint of Optimus?)

Dough-Bot, what's the sdcc version?

Wheres the best place to buy an MP Screamer from in the UK? I know it'll have to be shipped from hong kong or some place overseas but whats the best UK based site that has them for a decent price without insane shipping rates?

Im thinking of buying one once i finishing customizing and sell this ford Capri im working on....

While it's not the most likely happenstance in the world I wouldn't rule out Asda just yet. Even if they don't get them to begin with there's an outside possability of Walmart unloading any overstock onto their UK arm in six months.

The original Japanese release was the Kiss Players version (flames on the arms) while the final Alternater release was the San Diego Comic Con (SDCC) exclusive version, my favourite of the two, with flames on the hood where they belong but no player figure.

I like a girl in a tie.
And a short skirt too ;;)

I'd try toyzandgamez.com (I seem to be there sponser now

)
The Tracks I ordered from there came in two days no fuss; not sure what the stock situation is on it though.

RC- Now we know the man that can give us the latest on cards!
And just before crimbo too! :lol:

Darkageis- Get two shirts with the cat in ur sig printed on them, and then send me one :lol:

Best.shirt.ever.

I wish that Asda would transform into Walmart. They're gettin close though- no boats yet, but they do seel computers now.

I think the postal strike is well and truly over. Me bro got another package from Amazon.co.uk, and we gots a few letters.
Nowt for me though

Hopefully, me bro will get me Classics Grimlock fer crimbo. He better order this week though.

by **Robo-Chugster** » Mon Oct 15, 2007 10:42 am

aah yes, Toyzandgamez have him on order for £70...i may be very tempted by this, ive only got 1 MP (Anni OPs), and im not getting megs till they do a Perfect Edition

News Credits: 6 · by **City Commander** » Mon Oct 15, 2007 10:50 am

I'm glad I only buy bots.

My bro's got MP Megs coming with his stock and silencer from...I can't actually remember where... And plans to buy SS when (if) he hits retail here.

I think he's being a bit hopeful. He may get here, but because Hasblo are a bunch of dicks, he most likely won't.

by **Sonray** » Mon Oct 15, 2007 11:32 am

When is the G1 repainted screamer being released in the US? Im sure we'll be able to be one off some scalpers on ebay if they dont release him here.

by **Tangent** » Mon Oct 15, 2007 3:31 pm

All this talk of MP's reminds me, who would you recommend, MP Megs or MP Skywarp? They both look lovely, and I would have gone with Megs initially, but the whole tarnish on the feet is offputing, so maybe Skywarp would be better?

What do you guys think?

I'd go with Megs. I don't think the second run has that problem, and his character is far more iconic.

Just go with Anime SS when he comes out next year sometime

Avast me hearties, i be finding another pirate themed pic of a fierce beastie!

Yargh!

by **Tangent** » Mon Oct 15, 2007 4:00 pm

Aww, such a cute pirate cat!

If they have fixed Megs feet I will get him rather than Skywarp. Thanks, I wasnt sure if they where gonna try and fix them or not.

As far as I know it was just a niggly problem with the first lot. They weren't sealed properly or summat.

Do you plan on owning any version of the seeker mold at all?

by **Tangent** » Mon Oct 15, 2007 4:14 pm

If I get the cash I will probly get Skywarp after Megs, as Mp 03 SS just dont apeal to me for some reason, I might get Anime SS like you said though, he does look rather nice.
