So Squeezeplay has to squeeze his head up his butt :-P But then Squeezeplay came along, and well, now I just want to rewrite his Tech Specs to include a line about how the connection for his Headmaster partner is unreliable at best because of constant foreign particle accumulation... Well, the whol...

(And the fact that the slot for the Headmaster to attach in robot mode also happens to be squarely in the creature mode's posterior is pretty funny in a third-grade sort of way) Asshat, maybe? ... ... ... No? Anyone? Sorry, couldn't resist. And you can't tell me that didn't earn at least a chuckle ...

Well dammit-all, then... Why the hell are they taking so long to filter down to Cardiff? ¬_¬ *sulks*

Hey, guys. Ani. Leader Bulkhead arrived today, much to my mother's wrath. Awesome figure, and for £15 w/ free postage, can't go wrong! Thinking of doing the hand mod, but I'm not sure, might just leave it as-is... Hmm... Also, visited the TRU in Cardiff Bay today while I was in the big city. Didn't ...

Decided to drop in my local ASDA in Tonypandy today while I was passing, check to see if they carried Voyager-class figures on the obscure chance they'd have Lugnut; they don't, but they do have Scouts, and I saw Breacher there, picked him up on impulse. He's a great little Scout, nice inovative tra...

Cheers for the info. Its annoying as I used to have Acid Storm, Ramjet and Henkei Starscream this time last year but ended up selling them and a lot of my Classics/Universe to free up some space. > , < I hate hearing people say that! Better to pack 'em up and store 'em away - never part with 'em, I...

So on to complete my seekers with the search for Starscream,Ramjet and Acid Storm + a chms Sunstorm. Also wanting to get hold of a RTS Windcharger, United Megatron and a Fansproject Warbot Defender/Springer. Only thing missing then is an Ultra Magnus and hoping we see some Insecticons given the upd...

If it's helpful, if you're after any Hasbro releases, Tesco had the Tracks wave in Lockerbie. If they're in Lockerbie, they must be in every other Tesco in the UK. Cheaper than FP by a quid or two. Eh, thanks for the tip, 'Bat. Still looking for Lugnut, so I'll at least take a look in my local ASDA...

United Tracks arrived in the post this morning, he's awesome and shiny and stuff like Tracks should be - definately worth importing over picking up the Hasbro release, the United paintjob on this figure is AWESOME. That, and I wouldn't give Forbidden Planet my business if they paid me . Also, Genera...

Is Surpreme Devastator worth half price, or is he really too s#%$e? Err... No, mate, no he's not. It's a $hit figure that doesn't even actually transform, really, so no, I wouldn't pick it up for a quarter of the original BS pricetag. And for those interested, no, I'm never going to let this pile-o...

Aye. It was in their newsletter that I get sent. The Lugnut I've just bought from YaHobby was only £17.99 which is cheaper than Kapow IIRC. Missed out on RTS Windcharger so I put a random bid on a classics Skywarp which I ended up winning for £26 delivered. Only thing now is i'll be on the lookout ...

Risked the £3 trip to the Cardiff TRU down in the Bay a day or two ago, was rewarded with Perceptor and Wreck Gar. Both are made of Pure Awesome, though Perceptor's arms didn't like to sit snugly in-place in vehicle mode out of the packaging; did some very light sanding, now they sit nicely. Bumbleb...

There isnt anything on the site to allow you to cancel an order and the order details never get updated (i still have one from over a year ago saying processing). Only thing you can do is email them telling then to cancel the order but if you want your money back you really need to phone them other...

The only disappointing thing about Samurai Prowl is that his wheel hub throwing stars don't open once you get them out (a task to be sure). However normal Prowl's stars will fit (and come out easier) in Samurai's slots. Indeed. First thing I did before I'd even transformed him was to swap out the t...
