Just bought the Wizard exclusive Skywarp Bust, £50 including shipping. Not bad. I wasn't even aware this thing existed until I saw it pop up on eBay. Can't wait to get it, my collection will be up to date and ready for Animated Skywarp. =D

Skywarp is my favourite Transformer without a doubt. Just thinking back to that day when I first saw him teleport in to take down Ironhide in MTMTE gets me all misty eyed. :wink:

I do tend to obsess. Skywarp and Dead End are my TF homies, so I must collect all their figures and statues. :P

Although I do not have the Dead End minicon. I really should get that. But there hasn't been a new Dead End in ages, I'm really itching for a Classics Menasor.

Part of me is wondering if they're going to repaint the new Classics Sunstreaker into Dead End like they did with the Alternators Dead End.

Would be nice.

you'd think he'd be a break-down rather than dead-end though. to be fair though, theycould pretty much repaint all of the stunts from something else, motormaster from prime, drag strip from mirage, break-down from sunstreaker, possibly 2 new molds for the other two. would be nice though.

You're right, it would make a better Breakdown.

I just found out the Bust I ordered is actually brand new which is why I've never seen it before. Hope it gets shipped soon. I'm really excited to get it, I don't think it's actually on sale yet.

It's one of the new ones, like the Coneheads on pre-order at the top of the page, only this one is exlusive to Wizard rather than BBTS.

It's gonna be awesome. :P Hope I get a good number, I missed out on getting the #1 Pallisades Skywarp statue because I fell asleep before the auction ended.

I'm still kicking myself for that.

Anyhoo. Link to the auction:

What's with the faded hands though? Bit of an odd design, any thoughts on why it's like that?

Quiet, you!

The Thundercracker bust is up there as well, but he does not have fancy box art on his auction. In fact the image is broken completely.

TC is not as good anyway. :P

I finished reading FMA, and now I have nothing to waste my time on.
But I am going to a Manga art show soon, maybe I will find some random Tf's while I'm out? Not bought any for eeeons...

You can't have finished FMA, it's not all out yet. New chapter is out next month. Be sure to read it around the 15th.

There is nothing out but movie junk at the moment, but if you are going to a manga event you could probably get Anime/Merchandise. Pick up a Gashapon Al figure or something. Or an Ed. :P I have Roy and Hawkeye.

I meant as much as is out yet :P

And I still like Al, so :P

But that's true, I got all the movie ones I want, and the recolours are bleh. I should try and find some FMA guys instead, hehe, they would not match anyone else I have.

You could give me your money instead? I need to buy a sustainer/regenerator pedal as well as a wah, talkbox and metal muff :P (That's like £350 worth of kit I think. Depends on whether I buy KORG, Marshall, Jim Dunlop or whatever)



Nothing new. Still waiting on news about the last two WST dinobots. My damn Inferno is coming with them!



In good news, I have got my own pc up and running now. I just need about 2 hours or so to download service pack two.

Dealer - use Behringer gear, seriously good stuff for the price, I'm semi-pro (apparently I just missed out on supporting Metallica) and using it (and trying to get a sponsorship!)

Their X-V amp is just over £50.00 and will do everything you listed, 'cept the talkbox (which you'll wanna wait to get until after you become a wah-master).

et a multi-FX type box first then when you "settle" on your sound you'll know what you actually use FX wise and can go pick out the best of those.

http://www.soundslive.so.uk is a great online store for stuff like that.

His wing stripes really put Botcon Thundercracker to shame. I really hope they redo Skywarp too with those awesome wing stripes.

Now I have a spare pair of chromed null rays, currently Jetfire is holding on to them until I figure out what to do with them.

I already know that Cliffjumper will be getting Magnus' and Prime's guns. Cliffjumper will look a little like Dante then with Ebony and Ivory guns.

But the null rays are a little too big for Bumblebee, so maybe I'll give him Jetfire's gun and let Jetfire keep the null rays.
