I would have paid $35 or more for it. He rocks, except for some posing issues. He brings some much needed size to my Classics Decepticons shelf

Marvel crossovers Wolverine. The Marvel TF's seem to be everything that the Star Wars TF's weren't for the first few waves. I particularly like the pop out claws on Wolverine, it's a nice touch.

Finally found the Shadowblade Megatron. I've been waiting for this guy since I saw him at the panel at Comic-Con. Even some loser fan-girl yelling out, "It's just a repaint, don't get excited guys," didn't deter me.

Also found a Cobra Commander Mighty Muggs.

I saw those today too... I'm trying to resist him... May 29th isn't that far...

Yesterday I got Armada Unicron with only a few missing parts for under a fiver, it was a good day.

Anyone know where I might find some spare Unicron parts?

My wonderful wife picked me up the Universe Springer/Ratbat 2 pack from Target the other day. Found it on clearance for $20!!!

I've been searching every webstore I have found to no avail...

I need his right wing connector, 4 leg missiles, and his chest missile.

Im about to just go to TRU and buy a Universe Reissue one and use my current one for kitbashes and spare parts...

Oh almost forgot... My newest figure is Voyager Animated Grimlock.

I snagged the two Universe Deluxes I was seeking-Hound and Dinobot. Hound is a giant ball of awesome, except for the fact that his gun DOES NOT stay on his shoulder, and a floppy wheel. Ravage is cool too.

Dinobot is great. The dino mode's a hell of a lot better than BW Dinobot, with an actual TAIL. The robot mode is very cool, with the thinner more skeletal design fitting his thinner and more compact raptor mode. Just AWESOME.

Newest stuff:

Countless Jazzes. All for Kitbashing.

Grabbed Animated Blurr, despite the hole in his alt mode's rear.

Also, Wal-Mart seems to have knocked the price of Animated Deluxes back up to $10.

Universe Deluxes still say they're $7, though.

My Music Label Frenzy and Rumble headphones arrived today, I tested them on the public on a trip to the supermarket and I didnt get any funny looks, But there's still college tomorrow and twelve year olds arnt above shouting at me (It's why I dont wear odd converse anymore, that and my red pair are full of holes).

Over my Bday weekend i've managed to get Universe Powerglide, Legends Onslaught, the animated rescue Ratchet re-paint with legends Prowl and Starscream and a random Poundland knock off. Also snagged movie Fracture and Breakaway from Asda today.

Fracture is full of win.

My local ASDA is nafftastic and the decent ones are a bit far out for the parents to trouble themselves to do the weekly shop there, whats more the largest in the city is in the bad part of town, seriously my dad grew up there and he's mental.

Try wearing them while in bot mode.

Still scouring for legends, but to no avail. Seems nowhere stocks them anymore round here.

I saw a Shadowblade Megs the other day. Yeah, it's just a repaint, but that deco looks f***in' great in person!

Hmm. Onlslaught's upper body is rather good for posing, imho. Lower body, fair enough.

Almost my birthday too and am STILL on the hunt for Swindle. Hopefully by then...

Yes, I was surprised by Hound. I was expecting to feel "meh" about him and he surely wasn't on my list, mostly due to the Legends one being good enough not to mention the images I'd seen of him online left him looking a bit unimpressive. Bought him on impulse due to some extra cash and he's cool! (Yes, the weapon sucks and it does NOT attach to his shoulder well at all. No floppy tires on mine though.)

I'm thinking now that it was just good old English reserve, at college today I got plenty of funny looks and a few shouts. My friends reactions ranged from 'Wow those're really Transformers?' to 'Why are you wearing giant mints?'

" English Reserve "?

Is that Old English 800 and Steel Reserve mixed together ?

(Malt Liquor joke, yeah, don't get those every day at the archive )
