I guess I'm worrying about how hard he'll be to come by as time winds on...

If Hasbro would just release one shot. ANY shot of him (in bot mode of course :P )


Yeah, it'll do. I'll go for BB and the 2-pack.


Unless my bro chips in a tenner for Megs... :-?


Yeah, but that would rely on Hasbro having brains. :roll:
And wait... my ideas influenced somone's decision... for the better! :shock: That never happens to me! :wink:

Hurrah!


It's been a long way. In total- as long as I've been here that is- I think there's been well over 10,000 posts in the ODB thread.


Much better than those crappy Michingdars :P

And thanks for the council. It's been killing me all morning.

I have a simple plan for purchasing Ani Prowl, get the wave 1 version to go with the Ani 'bots and the retooled version to go with Lockdown (who doesn't really belong with the 'cons anyway), bounty hunting mega squad, yay!

The difficult one to leave on the shelf is going to be Bumblebee, since the one in the 3 pack seems to be identical to the regular release. Otherwise I'm planning to pick up the rest of wave 1, so there goes £90.

Anyone think it's anything like likely that Asda will get the 3 pack or the exclusive deluxes, given that they did have the RH 5 pack but no sign of MP 'Screamer as yet? Playing the guessing game with US store exclusives is a nightmare, pay more to import them sooner or risk missing them altogether waiting for a retail release that may never happen. Hm.

For smaller exclusives, I reckons we might just see them over here.

I always figured these big companies are too cheap to ship bigger items- like the MP Screamer- overseas to us here.


Only looking to pick up Bumblebee and the 2-pack from wave 1, and me bro's after Lockdown and Screamer.

Then on to wave 2!

Same here.

Luckily I'm not having the Prowl problem as I want to be show faithful and it doesn't look like the upgrade will be a permanent addition.

I didn't think they could make the Prowl mould any better. But that armour just looks so draw droppingly awesome.

I like getting the perfect version of each character in a series. And Samurai Prowl really does look too cool to pass up for ninja Prowl.

That's assuming the armour looks exactly as it does in the show though.

I usually just buy the first one I see, however the voyager Bulkhead size has put me off buying him, and I want the Helicopter Megs as that's the most show accurate version.

Aye, that's why I'm having a problem. I want to hold out for the samurai one, but what if the armour is in fact crappy looking?

They've looked good this far into the series. I just hope the armoured version stays true to this.


Don't ya find it funny (and annoying) that the leader Bulkhead is smaller than the voyager Prime?

Really?

You sure you aren't getting confused?

I knew voyager BH was small than Prime, but the leader one had better not be, otherwise I will be mad, and Hasbro will be missing out on some money.

I'm pretty sure.

It was a while ago that it came up, but I remember someone saying that, and an ebay auction (I think. It may have been at tformers) there was some comparison shots.


I wish I'd saved them now... :-?



Electron-- I'm not sure mate. It would be nice to get it signed, but then it might well make it non-gradable... :?

Well this is the first I've heard of an ebay auction for a leader bulkhead. I'm really hoping you were getting mixed up now, as there's no deluxe Earth prime planned is there?
