Well I finally managed to end my collecting until May, as I found Universe Dinobot. And after doing the famous "spring removal" mod for the head, I find him to be on par with Sunstreaker, Hound and Cyclonus in the best of the line.

Also that ****ing missle shot across the room, straight into the garbage can. Which is more or less my opinion of the sword. Maybe I'll find one of the original Dinobot swords for it, as I think they'd work, as far as robot mode goes.

Have added Legends Bumblebee to my Universe collection.

Still searching for Cosmos and Warpath.

FINALLY! FINALLY!

I've finally got my hands on Universe Hound, Cyclonus and Starscream! At last!

Still no Legends Bumblebee and the like, though. For all it's worth, I found Storm Cloud but didn't get him.

My little brother got lots of Clone Wars um, clones.

Today I got my package from BBTS. In it was...

WST Swoop- came with no less than 6 missile launchers, but the only ones I wanted to use, the wing ones, didn't fit. one of the holes wasn't even totallly drilled out. you can't really even bother with the decals on any of these. 35 bucks. dammit. but i have all but Sludge now, so he's next.

Nemesis Prime, with Shadow Commander armor- The main event. This is pretty cool, the armor turns a voyager into an ultra. the big gun is ridiculous, though, and my NP cant support it, so back in the box it went. But the rest is Freakin Awesome.:up: The comic instruction booklet was unique. very nice.

Picked up Universe Smokescreen and Hound. I really liked Smokescreen's paint job but Hound was average.

As far as I know, none of them can support the gun, but the gun CAN store on his back in between the other storage points.

Finally picked up Universe Ironhide and Sideswipe last weekend. Ironhide is ok, though his paint job is pretty poor, but Sideswipe is awesome. He's even better than Sunstreaker, who's pretty damn good. The front end of his car becoming his chest is a nice twist on Sunstreaker's transformation sequence and really suits him.

Also got Animated Blitzwing, Lugnut and Optimus Prime before xmas half price in Tesco. Don't think I've mentioned that on here. Blitzwing and Lugnut are good but Prime is fantastic. Don't need my Deluxe size now I have the Voyager.

I know. And to think i got it for USD 35.50 shipped. :clap:

Seems like someone bought lots of these customs, then decided they didn't have the room, so sold them for cheap. Yay!

Star Wars TF crossovers Commander Cody/Turbo Tank. It's not bad, but General Grievous is better.

Got Animated Blurr and Shockwave. Haven't opened them.

They've got Swindle, but I ain't having cash. Blazing Lockdown and Universe Stormcloud were there too, but money dooesn't allow for repaints.

@E.G. I'm also typing this on my iPhone. In fact, most of the posts I make nowadays are via my phone. Technology is a great thing.

I finally found a new Deluxe-Animated Swindle!

The backpack is annoying, but otherwise good.
No longer looking for RID Dreadwind, but I still need Smokejumper. I'm also in need of Mammoth Nemesis Prime's tail piece, as my figure lacks it. Send me a PM.

Finally opened my Animated Grimlock and let him do battle with Soundwave and Lockdown. I'd really like to pick up Animated Swindle and Universe Cyclonus, but I've scaled back my TF consumption right now. Which two should I trade/sell so I can get these two?:

Animated Ratchet
Animated Prowl
Universe Acid Storm
Movie Big Daddy
Movie Stealth Bumblebee
Animated Lugnut (counts for two)

The only one on that list I would sell is Ratchet, and thats only because He is Pegwarming. Means you probably won't get a great price but would be easily replaced.
Come on and wind me up.

Got quite a haul recently...

Henkei Jetfire, Henkei Optimus Prime and Henkei Astrotrain. I'm more than impressed with this figures, and I'm thinking I'll be going for the entire Henkei line and 'bashing my universe and classic lines. Already built a Dreadwing outta classics Jetfire.

Also got Universe Hound and Cyclonus and Energon Megatron.

And Armada Predacon. For 50p. I hate him. He's beyond awful. I was gonna put him on ebay, but the G/F has threatened to stab me if I get rid of "the gay megatron"
