Been visiting this forum since i got into collecting TFs again (about 8 months' or so) and decided to join.

First, a bit of info. I live in England so realise how hard it can be to get hold of some TFs.So anybody in the Reading area that is as annoyed as me that Argos just don't seem to want to stock Titaniums, can pick up Soundwave & Rodimus Prime for a little steep £17.99 each at Blackwells in the town centre. They had 3 SWs and 2 RPs this morning. Btw, Maidenhead Argos still had 1 soundwave aswell.

Now a quick question. The local Sainsburys has Energon Omega Supreme for £40 at the moment. Is that a decent price or should i hang on until the price drops a bit ?

I figure i may aswell add some collection pics. Not a huge collection, and no real hard to find figures. But here it is anyway....

Nice collection, I like how you have Cyb Skywark hanging from the shelf above. One thing though, let those boxed tfs out you evil evil man.

Oh, and say hi in the Offcial Disgruntled Brits Thresd.

nice collection especially for 8 months, I like the Back to the Future poster in the backgroud too!

For the Energon Omega, that's seems like a good price for MISB, but if you want one for display out of box, you should be able to snag one much cheaper on ebay.

Nice Collection for such a short time but all those boxes make me a sad panda.

Shockwave is considered hard to find?I've seen him shelfwarming in literally every Woolworths I've ever been into! If anybody would like me to pick one up for them I'd be happy to.

P.S. - Hi! :)

Thanks for the feedback guys.

Don't worry about the boxed figures. Thing is, i actually had some of them out of the boxes on display before. But were a major pain for collecting dust. So as soon as i get another display case i will be releasing them ;)

Btw, i may have been a little misleading about the 8 months thing, because the whole shelf with G1 Magnus & Metroplex are all ones that i've had since i was a kid. Aswell as Roadblock & Skyhammer and the micromaster stuff.
I also have G1 Op Prime, Sunstreaker and Inferno. But they are way too mangled to put on display.

I ordered it from BBTS in early january i think. My first order from them, very impressed.

Soundwave and shipping came to about 67 USD. So about 35GBP. But i thought it was reasonable for something unavailable over here.
