I'm here all of October, most of December, and book me quick for next year!

If you think the wild boars are bad, you should keep an eye out for the wolves too.
The carys tend to only move when directed, and follow mostly tourist paths that involve local produce. :-P

Thank you, young Padawan!

Backstage shots! Including my best TR Trypticon impression...

Three in one, that shot took me a while.

Those are some really nice shots! I love the tank attacking the castle one. And the cap (what is the real term for it?), I love it!

That'd be cool beyond belief to visit with a fellow TF enthusiast -- especially you Va'al! I also would like to meet the One as well, but at least we got to see pics of the trip.

That's a flat cap, yes! Technically Emily's, but it made do.

Doing some actual downsizing rather than just hiding things in boxes. It feels weird to be selling these this time round, but I do need the cash these coming months...

Anyway, I took some nice photos of stuff that's going on sale, so I'll dump em here. :-P

Yes, my sole third party product is leaving the house at last. Burn will be proud of me.

Awww, Generations/Wrecker Springer, Va'al? Won't he be missed?

I tried so hard to keep the collection free from 3P when I got back into collecting -- but gave in multiple times. And DX9's Tyrant was to blame for opening the floodgates.

Perhaps if Takara had done Galvatron proper, I never would have strayed....except on Tarn. I needed dat MMC incarnation!

He's been not on display for the past year, so no, probably not. All of these have the same reason behind them, to be honest...

Have any buyers yet? I may be interested in these 2. Got more details??

I should've pointed out: all these are being sold on eBay, because reasons (of the interest kind).

Understandable Va'al -- I wish I was better at collection clean-up.

News Credits: 191 · by **Kurona** » Mon Oct 02, 2017 2:40 pm

I think as soon as I've got a way to sell my stuff on eBay there's a bit of my collection I wanna clean out too. Universe Bluestreak, Legends Arcee, Legends Super Mode Armada Starscream... mostly remnants from when I was in my 'represent literally every G1 character ever' phase. Bluestreak and Arcee have better figures I wanna get anyway and I have the Armada Starscream mold in normal colours. Plus that one was mostly to have some sort of Thundercracker at the time... I'm just rambling now.

As most people on here know, I'm not one to usually sell figures when clearing out collections spaces. But there are plans requiring me to raise quick funds, and this is one way of doing it fairly fast. Not expecting a profit! Just an online small safety net on PayPal.

Alas.

I only have the Stars, the Rahkshi and the Toa Nuva, plus Makuta and Takanuva, so not really expecting much. Trying to remember where the rest of the stuff went (mostly first gen Toa and the Bohrok). :-?

Dang, no Barraki. Loved those guys, even though I only have Carapar. Also kinda want some more of the Toa Inika. I have Matoro from that and Hahli from the Mahri line. I've sort of wanted the remaining 4 in some capacity just so I could have all 6 from that Toa team

I've updated the first post with the AB collection so far (rest is still in progress), now that a gift from megatronus has arrived!

I found a metal lizard boy in Osaka.

Rust Dust was vaguely not impressed, but then, she never is.
Then she realised this makes her the boss of a metal lizard monster.

Bonus shot: NIGHTMARE CHICKEN

That... is something very interesting that was cute and then it turned into a robot. So kinda scary, but really cool!

News Credits: 131 · by **no-one** » Mon Nov 20, 2017 3:17 pm

Is that a digimon? How much is die-cast? Appears to have a nice bit of transformation to it. I'm assuming that's what they do? Transform or evolve? I only have the vaguest of digimon knowledge as in I know they exist and are "mons".

I missed all the "mon" games except one. I'll toss out a pic and a reference I don't expect anyone to get ;)^

It's a tidy 8-bit gif innit mun!

That is the newly released figure from the Tamashii Digivolving spirits line, with aheckuvalotta diecast: leg covers, chest, head cover, feet - all metal.

This was the original toy, way back when:

The dragon thing is called Agumon, one of the main cast of Digimon Adventure (and Tri.), and his Mega (Ultimate in English) digivolution is Wargreymon. There are two other intermediate stages, but let's call this his 'final' mode. It's not, but for sake of argument, it is.

This is a new line for the anniversary of the digicreatures, and I could not be more smitten. I may have to get 02 as well: Gabumon.

The wolfie look neat. So from cute to fierce, I get it. So do you consume any of their related media? Just toys?

Other than video games I tend to be toys first then maybe dip my toes into the media.
