Yeah. Work has been kicking my ass again. Trying to have a life outside of work ain't easy at the mo. But I'm trying! I'm on holiday this week so all is good.

[Leonardo]

Has anyone got a list of all the TF sites that sell/ship to UK?

[Big Grim]

The only two I use since the Mighty Ellis closed doors are Xybertoys and Toyz n Gamez.

I miss Dave.

Since EllisModels closed Xybertoys is the only site I use for TF shopping.

[Big Grim]

You too, huh?

[ShockwaveUK]

You too, huh?

Yup, Play.com don't stock until months after release, Epicheroes suck and Toyzandgamez postage adds up so Xybertoys is really the only one I bother with.

[Leonardo]

I always forget about Xybertoys. Use your Favourites, Leo.

[Big Grim]

Xyber are the only ones who are honestly any good. I really miss Dave. Fired off an email to see if he is still amongst us.

His site's gone, I thought he was just stoping stocking TFs.

[Big Grim]

He was doing away with the online TF side of the buisiness. The Bricks and Mortar are still there as far as I am aware.

I think AK is close to Daves real shop. Might ask him to pop in and tell Dave we're asking after him since my email has not worked! He stopped stocking TFs as the demand was not high enough if I remember correctly!

[Psychout]

AK is near Ellis if you consider Sheffield near to Birmingham. Enerjolt would be the closest i think cos IIRC the poor guy is a brummie or at least stuck there.

ToyzandGamez I can do a shop at 2-3 times a year as its in Norwich and the rest of my family havent got around to leaving that pit of a city yet.

It does leave just Xybertoys, but they have been pretty good so far in my experience.

[Redimus]

Ive used Neon Martian once recently, and was pret5ty happy with their service.
Quite frankly I only buy Japanese exclusives from Xybertoys now becuase any toy hasbro do a version of is cheaper pretty much anywhere else that isnt Xybertoys.

The only problem with Neon Martian (other than the fact they're another 'add the postage to your price shop' is that they ONLY stock Takara tfs, and the choice seems to be dwindling.

Oh, and have we got anymore news on importing Megs in bulk?

****!
Dave's got a few hundred quids worth of TF's put aside for me, which I'd forgotten about. He was meant to be getting in contact to give me a total price for all the figures + shipping but never got back to me. I hope he's still got em as it was 6 months ago!
Anyone who manages to make contact with him, please mention my name too.

[ShockwaveUK]

Xybertoys has MP Megatron listed again.

[High Command]

i posted a thread earlier this month that I'd be leaving soon, cause we'd be getting rid of the internet. This was because I went mad on the net and bought loads of stuff off eBay.

As a result, i ended up almost 1000 in debt. As a result, the bank contacted PayPal and i've lost my account there.


anyhoo...I did snag some good stuff off xybertoys and cybercity anime

Just for you...

We all go a bit mad on ebay at least once...

I have his contact details after we swapped a few calls after the problem with my Primus delivery. Drop me a PM if you want them HC.
Hope you get it sorted, but from what he told me, he was staying in business, just not selling over t'intarweb any more.

Smae here Dear Boy. He was gonna put a list together of what he still has aside for me and I never heard back from him.

Good luck
Im not even sure Bluestreak got a reissue and all the others have been out a very long time. Soundblaster in particular will be expensive.

[Leonardo]

Bluestreak did get a reissue, but under the moniker of Silverstreak. Because Silverstreak is an easier copyright to hold.

As by far the most boring origanal tf toy, I had no interest in him, hence why I never paid any atention to if he was out or not.

Still gonna be difficult to get ur grubby mits on.

[Leonardo]

More boring than Swindler?







I did used to use Swindler a lot as a child, actually.

He and Smokescreen were my favourite Autobot cars as a kid.

Swindler?

Who's he?

I like Somkescreen, just cant be bothered with the plain as bread bluestreak. Only reason I'd buy him is if he were cheap cuase I like the mold.

If it wasnt for the fact that i know you Red, id mock you for that.
Ive got a Silverstreak. Its nothing special, Smokescreen is far cooler.

Just got a Classics Megs from Forbidden Planet in Sheffield. Cost a fortune but was quicker than the 'net.Looks brilliant, but its a bugger to transform (as i have never yet used the instructions).
Are all classics this intricate?
