Right this seems the easiest way to seperate the spam from the sighting thread..

Anything transformers or non transformer related items can be discussed here or just general banter.

Right then...

Finished Smash Bros brawls adventure mode with my sister earlier, it is fantastic and will be worth waiting for (got an import version and a freeloader. I do like Wario and Sonic's fighting styles.


have just unlocked toon Link and just need to find JigglyPuff and Wolf and the roster is complete

the co-op adventure and events are cool.

Any release date for that game yet? (non import)

Any idea if Epic Heroes is running a sale again?

Nope, Nintendo are trying to make up for this by releasing Mariokart here a couple of weeks before america but it's besides the point.

recent purchase http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vie...N:IT&ih=003 It's original, complete, and proof that sometimes original dinobots work outcheaper than the KOs, (Bidding on the others at the moment and suprisingly Sludge is the one that's highest at the moment and not Swoop like i expected, still, 4 days on them before they end

Good find

Megablocks Neo-Shifters. Got the QuadPod, quite sweet, They have added KNEE ARTICULATION on the minifigs! Im gonna have to get teh blushes and get some ClearNail varnish for his arm sockets, he doesnt want his arms...
The spider tank thing is SICK! Love the way the spinner stashes to make the satelite engine!

thought i'd post how this is going. Grimlock arrived today, slag should arrive either tomorow or the day after, sludge i won mere hours ago and swoop and snarl are still ongoing. if i don't win swoop i think i'll settle for the ko version.

*edit* well, i lost the swoop auction, i went out with a few friends for a drink so wasn't here to see the end of it.

I got the KO Swoop, £30 is the cheapest i found though (doesn't seem right to pay more for the ko than the original dinobots tthough i shouldn't be too hesitant in repainting his chest blue if i choose as it isn't an original.)

NeoShifters DuneSkiff and Hydrowave.. Nice designs, love the bombs on the DuneSkiff.. The hovercraft was a nice variation on transformation.

First time I have walked out of a TRU without a Transformer for a while.

I almost but one when i'm in. i don't like the look of the pain apps on the mk3 though so i'm probably going to buy two mk 2s so i can do one up as the mk3 and have a mk2

Not sure if this is relevant, but I did email Hasbro yesterday and the TF: Animated stuff is out in June, but they couldn't give me an exact date.

UJ

Sludge arrived today, it's awesome, at this rate i'll begetting a new dinobotevery day. unless slagand swoop arrive at the same time.

Still waiting on the snarl auction though.

Phantoka Chriox. That bloody thing looks like the Xenomorph Queen! Seriously cool and the extra arm segment allows for some truly fantasticly terrifying poses. I now have, Toa Ignika, Makuta Ikarax and all the Phantoka. Luckily for me ASDA seem to have a Any 2 for £7 on their partners.. BUT OUR LOUSY ONE ONLY HAS ONE IN STOCK.. LITERALLY... *calms down its only toys* BUGGER!

Just sent payment through to Shockprowl for MP US Starscream.

and once i find out whether i win snarl or not i renounce tf collecting until Universe.

(i really have to, going up to the Fringe this year and that'll be quite expensive i imagine, especially seeing how Forbidden Planet is pretty close by.)

Just snagged the new ehobby black ironhide/ratchet figure

£75 USD delivered - not bad i think!

The green one seems to be a fair bit more though

I was tempted by the Iron man stuff do you think its any good?

They are quite good. Lots of detail and articulation. The Ironmonger figure is the best, it is really heavy.
I was going to get two becuse it is begging for a repaint, but I think it might be a "shortpacked" figure.
Also they are only £7.99

smash bros brawl and a freeloader so i can actually play it for £36. Fantastic price seeing how if i'd found both in a shop it would have cost at least £50.

yeah I picked one off the shelf and I was shocked by how heavy he was

Shocked enough buy it???

no just had me wondering how come its £8 when it much be at least twice as heavy as the others in the line

Two missing parts though.. I have replacements on the way for FREE from the company though!

Has anyone else picked up Movie Incinerator yet? I grabbed one from eBay last week or so & I'm addicted to fiddling with it!

nope not seen it at all was yours in a euro pack?

got a nice MiB perceptor today for £70 its got all its parts just missing the try insert

Nice … does the telescope work and any chance of some pics? It would be nice to see some G1 love in this thread.

yeah it all worked give me a sec to make some pics

So he is an actual microscope or is it just a blurry lens?

Mario kart wii. the wheel is weird at first and still a little difficult but definately adds to the experience

it depends its just a blurr for the most part but when stuff is in just the right place it kinda works

Just nabbed Lego Bionicle Gadunka and Nocturn from The Entertainer in Stevenage - £15 and £10 respectively. Woolies still has Karzahni for sale at £20, so I may nab another one of them next week.

UJ

Oh, before I forget - are any of you guys gonna be attending the next Collectormania in Milton Keynes? Hopefully I will be there on the Friday, with some of my StarGate buds..

I may be there. Probably on the Saturday though.


American I think.

It was $20USD more thats my ebaying done for a while! (unless ehobby bring out more G1 repaints....! :@) )

got the GIJoe 25th annie box sets so thats 10 figs in total with 2 music thingys

KO Swoop, he's gonna get repinted to show colours

Now that the price for BTs is becoming a little bit more sensible I picked up Skids for Just over £30 - I’m now missing just the 3 BTs which I’m going to try and pick up in the next few months (Ligier is going to be a pain in the exhaust to get hold of though.).

All these babies are staying MISB, if I get the urge to have a play I have a friend who is on 24 hour phone alert with an Alternator prepared.

The three new Doctor Who books, a LEGO firetruck (the biggish one), Camshaft, TMNT DVD, YGO Dark Emperor, 52 Vol 1, Teen Titans: Beast Boys & Girls, Shonen Jump, and Vampire Wars (a GW book)...
All within the past week

Which 3 are you missing? And what price are you looking to pay? I'll keep my eyes open & PM you if I find them.

The ones I’m missing are the two repaints, blue Tracks (I have yellow Tracks but forgot to put him in the picture) and Red Jazz (Zoom Zoom) – I’m looking to pay no more than £35 for Zoom Zoom and £30 for Blue Tracks, which in the current climate may be unrealistic.

There are two exclusives I’m missing, Black Convoy and Ligier (clear Mirage), I’ll pass on BC because I’ve never really bought into the Prime repaints = Scourge / Magnus. I’d like Mirage but if I want him I’m going to have to pay top dollar. I’ll be monitoring eBay over the next few weeks to see if he pops up at a price that makes me want to bite the bullet and splash the cash.

But yeah, thanks for your offer. If anyone else sees the BTs I’m looking for, selling at a reasonable price, then please give me a shout.

This clear mirage: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Takara-Transformers-...1QQcmdZViewItem
is about as cheap as I have seen (cheap being a relative word!)

Nice work on those BT's I was gonna collect them, but then they bought them out too quick!

So I have the 2 original smokecreens (both numbers) streak and a laserwave. I opened a smokey and laserwave
Also isnt there a reshape / updated smokescreen? (new rally car shape?) or am i dreaming!

nope your not their was a smoke screen GT who was the 2004 car while the first BT was the 2003

So I’m looking at paying around £100 for a clear BT Mirage, not as bad as I thought, but still - ouch!

There are actually 4 Smokescreen BTs (overkill), BT-01 numbers 7&8 (2003) and BT-07 numbers 1&2 (2004). BT-07 had a different mould, deco and packaging to BT-01 and also came with a shoulder gun.

cybertron dark scorponok, he came with two cyber keys .

^^ Let me guess £12.99 @TK Maxx...

Zoids Shadow Fox...
Dayum that kit took ages to put togeter. ..

Madness - NW5 CD
Bottom live 1 &2
Mr Flibble

Bionicle Kirop and Radiak, £.98 each or £7 for 2 at ASDA. Nice little kits and they do look damned good on their partners.

my mp megs arrived today. hes beautiful. £57 delivered from ebay

Try not to break him in the hours it takes you to transfrom him and back

Very nice TF though, and good deal at that price.

I decided that I was going to take the cheap-a$$ route to collecting TF movie toys; since I’m not too keen on the toys or the packaging I figured I’d go for the loose secondary market and save myself some cash. Won this auction for a really good price.

eBay Listing #220223814999

Most of the figures are incomplete which is a bit of a let down but I guess for the price I paid I can’t really complain. I’ll make a couple of the figures available on the trade thread soon, could be useful for parts or kitbash.
