You're a gentleman and a scholar, sir.

Down_Shift comes through for the hungry fan!

What's in the office mail today?

Ever so shiney...

Making sure I didn't screw it up:

Good will towards Yankees from America's Hat! I intend to find a Maple Leaf decal and decorate him in Canada's honor:

Thanks again boss!

Sig quote??? Yup, sig quote.

Well I'm glad you all like them. I was going to go tomorrow, but it would seem that they aren't doing it this weekend. HOWEVER, next Saturday they will be and I'm going to bring everyone I can to get as many as I can. Guess who also has that Saturday off?

This guy.

Alternity Megatrons swords look good on him, but they fit a little loose. I think the GOW2 Cannon will fit well in there, as it fits well in Alternity Convoys hands.

On an absolutely unrelated to Swerve note: How are the Alternity toys? Worth the near 50$ each?

Back to Swerve: Down_Shift, you are indeed one of the best members of this community. Going entirely out of your way to help those unable to do things for themselves.

No one can touch you, Down_Shift, not even MC Hammer.

Stop! Hammer Time!

I gave him a Mini-Con melee weapon.

(cause it's hard to get guns in Canada right?)

Actually, not really. You do need to get yourself a firearms liscence and such, but once you have one it is actually relatively simple to get a large variety of guns, especially rifles. Granted, we dont allow for weapons of full auto or easily converted to full auto to be sold or bought, so there are limitations on some weapons. But, overall, guns are pretty popular up here.

I fight people with airsoft guns.

Wow, D_S, that is really cool of you to take your time like that just to get some figs for your fellow board members. While I didn't think to ask you for one earlier, and don't plan to now as its well beyond the "late" timeframe, if there's anything you'd like stateside, let me know and I'll hook you up.

Kindness such as yours deserves something more my friend.

Will anyone be at this promotion at the Eaton Centre on July 30-Aug 2 and if they can could you pick one up for me. I will pay for shipping.
Thanks.

Could it be possible that they'll have more tomorrow? Just wishful thinking, I suppose...

I'll try. Always looking for an excuse to pillage the Eaton Center

I guess it would be too much for me to also be hopeful? (man, I feel like a tard for not following this thread...)

I just got my Swerve in the mail today when I got home, and is it just me or is his head one of the coolest and badass head designs you've ever seen on a TF?

Definately. The Decepticons have Soundwave and now the Autobots have a guy who has a badass head shaped like the Autobot logo (Vector Prime's head is not badass, IMHO).

I also like how his neck tilts is upwards. For some reason that, and the colors, make sme think of Deadpool.

I broke down a bought one on Ebay last week, can't wait for it to arrive. Got it for a decent price. Are you guys displaying him with your movie toys or classics. I think I'll be going with classics.

The shape from certain angles and the colour of red and black made me think of Deadpool too.
