Well - to get Infiltration, Stormbringer, Escalation and the first batch of spotlights you could go for -this

Some other good stories that are out now are the IDW reprints of Target 2006 and Dinobot hunt.

http://www.oneshallstand.com/index.html is supposed to be a good online shop but it looks like he may only sell the individual issues.
(plus there are scans of some old - not reprinted stories on the site for you to check out)

Well, if you have the money for it, IDW just released The Art of Transformers. Also, the War Within: volume 1 has some fantastic splash pages (was re-reading it this afternoon).

Apparently it has all of Infiltration, Stormbringer, Escalation and the SHOCKWAVE, NIGHTBEAT, HOT ROD, SIXSHOT and ULTRA MAGNUS Spotlight issues. So 21 issues worth.

Hi everyone, no TF news to report I'm afraid, but on a personal note I'm still got some discomfort from yesterday, as I had to have some teeth taken out at the hospital, so my gums are still abit tender as you can no doubt imagine.

I'm thinking about pre-ordering the G1 Omega Supreme statue on play.com, he's fairly priced for what he is, anyone else considering getting him? Or do you think I should save my money?

Anyhoo, seeya.

Tesco in Cardiff finally had a toy restock today, and I got myself a Deluxe Barricade, woohoo.

They also have Deluxe Bumblebee, Jazz, Brawl, Longarm, and Wreckage in stock. Along with Voyager Starscream and Ironhide.

Will be interesting to see how fast these sell out.

G1 Grimlock. Saw them this morning, but I generally avoid non-transforming TFs (except for robot heroes Grimlock and Shockwave.)

Well - it should be a week and a half before I get heat back in my flat - why is it that plumbers never turn up when they're supposed to? WHY? :sad:

You guys might want to check out the latest (reposted)'Mosaic' TF strip, It's piratey goodness!
http://forum.idwpublishing.com/viewtopic.php?t=2622

..and while I'm fiddling around I think I'll switch to my newer sig - unfortunately not piratey at all :-(

Lol, a pirate themed mosaic, at last :D

So, anyone want to tell me what they think about the Omega Supreme statue before I pre-order him? :)

Like the new sig RP, did you make it? Maybe if you made Ravage abit lighter, you could give him an eye patch, or put a skull and crossbones on him?

Yes, I modeled Ravage and the logo a while ago then had a play with Photoshop.

How much and what section? I've been getting them from FP, the 3 for 2 is on there. Just picked up Matrix quest and Primal scream, I could do with the other two.

Also, how long does Reprolabels usually take to ship?

My last order took a couple of weeks,
Mind you, had to factor the postal monkeys' tantrum into that.

Well worth the wait tho.
Have you ordered, or just thinking about it?

Gaaar,

Woolworths in Rochdale had a whole heap of Recon Barricades, and an entire 2 meter shelf full of Legends, mostly Optimus and Megatron.

Also, the Wilkinsons there sucks. No TFs whatsoever.
