Not much to report really.

Toys R Us York might as well give up and go home. They really have been poor for transformers since they got rid of the big display at the front of the shop.

Woolies in Bradford had humongous amounts of recon Barricade but nowt else really.

Nothin else here either I'm afraid.

Sealed the deal with Maniac23, and will be paying him in a couple of hours.




Just waiting on christmas money from grandparents. Once I receive that, I can order the Railracer boxset from ebay.



Have Super Paper Mario and Metroid Prime 3 sorted for Crimbo, and me and my sis are getting Mario Galaxy between us. So that's my Ninty games sorted til March.

Now I just need to pick up G1 style Jazz, Ironhide and Leader Prime and I can call it a day for this quarter.

Quick question, to save me wondering around like a loon.

What section of Boots would have wreckage in? I really can't picture what part would have him.

Also, nice little montage you picked up there Frimal. G2 is awesome. I'll have to have a poke around FP, see if they have End of the Road.

If you can't find him instore, there's always ebay. Sure, it's a bit more for retail, but it all really depends on how much you want the figure in the end.


Best of luck getting hold of him.

Thanks for the links, but I aint paying over retail for him. I don't want him that badly. I saw plenty in FP once, but that was £12.99. I'll just keep my eyes peeled.

They both look the sex. If I had more money, I'd buy both.


Same here. Noticed in similar circumstances too. I'd already bought Skyblast and was outraged when I saw Air Raid. Still, I've got one...

The larger Boots stores have the seasonal expanded gifts section, including rather helpful signs indicating toys in general, and toys by category. Just look for the Boys Toys sign.

The John Lewis in Nottingham has just restocked with some Voyager-class figures priced at 6.65 - not too bad seeing as though I got Bonecrusher from Sainsburys for a tenner! I swiped up Brawl and Barricade :D

All hail Hasbro! Who needs a Student Loan anyway...

I'm doing History, my dissertation is probably going to be go on Allied Intervention during the Russian Civil War...or I might throw that away completely and look at Violence and the British Union of Fascists...

God, 3rd Year History is freaking weird :P

What are you studying at college?

Ahh - The joys of uni and college. I feel for ya Doomboy. I've just had 2 essays to hand in today and i've got another one to do for next monday. On the upside I get mondays and tuesdays off, so I can do whatever I want at the weekend and not have to worry about getting up early 'til wednesday.

I've been contemplating getting alternators wheeljack while the argos sale is on. If I did get him, how tall would he be in comparison to the movie line, and would he be in scale with the movie figs in vehicle mode?
