Most of it is The_damned's. We just combine shipping normally. There's nothing special just the latest Generations figures (Warparth, Scourge etc) and a few other bits and pieces.

MOSC Takara Robot Masters Starscream

Really happy with Galvatron but the Robot Masters leave me a bit cold I must admit. I just think they don't float my boat.

Hi

I passed thru Target Chatswood today and picked up two Leadfoot (legends with Target image on hood) and Ironhide exclusive 2 packs and 1 bumblebee and megatron exclusive 2 pack.

There was 1 bumblebee and megatron exclusive 2 pack left.

People should check the other Targets around Sydney if they are after this.

No pics atm as I am away from the computer.

More DOTM Toys to add before the movie is even released! :o Picked these up in the last few weeks during some of the toy sales. Some might have been in May.

I'm really, really happy with this figure considering I used to think of it as stupid for having a clock/watch embedded in it's chest - But after having learnt what that clock/watch is used for and the fact that it is an actual functioning time keeping device, which the TFwiki (http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Heinlad#Beast_Wars_Neo) mentions as being quite accurate and it is!, I have since grown to love this figure for both it's function and it's great engineering and articulacy. ;):cool:

Oh! - And the fact that it is the only Transformer produced that has actual testicles, of which the right one holds Heinlad's Spark Crystal, only further cements the uniqueness of this figure! :p:D

Got a few items yesterday but only had a chance to have a look at them today.

Re-issue Optimus. Encore I think. Still stuck in the bag he was sent to me in

Re-issue Jazz (encore too). With all accessories
http://i1120.photobucket.com/albums/l483/theheretic17/IMG_0582.jpg

http://i1120.photobucket.com/albums/l483/theheretic17/th_IMG_0584.jpg
Negative, that would be a Hasbro Commemorative Series reissue, not any kind of Takara/TOMY reissue. Tell tale signs include:
+ Smoke stacks are too short. Japanese reissues have full lengthened smoke stacks.
+ Instruction booklets are in English, whereas Encore Convoy's instructions would be in Japanese.

And check the missiles inside the trailer. They're probably too long, which means they're Hasbro. The Takara reissue's missiles are normal short length. Also, I think Encore Convoy has the Autobot insignias on the arms tampographed on instead of stickers.

Here's some pics:
Hasbro reissue Optimus Prime in robot mode (http://www.tfu.info/1984/Autobot/OptimusPrime/rerobotmode.jpg)
Hasbro reissue in truck mode (http://www.tfu.info/1984/Autobot/OptimusPrime/revehiclemode.jpg)

Yeah I think your right. I couldn't remember which series they said he was from when I was posting it. The perceptor was definitely sold to me as a g1 so if you can see any reason(s) he might not be then let menknow please.

Ah, AM Thundercracker, a figure I really want but don't have the funds for. Nice score.


Re-issue Jazz (encore too). With all accessories

I'm really after Jazz, going with encore might be best as he looks in really good nick.

Wow, Voyager Sentinel Prime looks great, I think I may wait to buy him, I like the look of him better than Leader.

The cartoon played it up too. Each of the Maximals' rooms aboard the Gung Ho has a customised theme to suit the Maximal who lives in it - Heinlad's room is a "Washitsu" (和室) (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Washitsu), and even has a Ye Olde stove in the middle of the room which he always uses to make miso soup! :)

TC isn't to hard to find, but Kup is proving rather elusive at the moment.I haven't even seen one....I'm a bit pissed I didn't put G2 prime on layby with the other TFs last weekend...:mad::mad::mad:he was on $15 at Toyworld:mad::mad::mad:

He told me this was only the second one he'd autographed in Australia, the other one was for an auction. So it might be 1 of 2 unless someone in Perth gave him one to sign. It says "Evil is a fire that must be extinguished"

It says "Evil is a fire that must be extinguished"

Yeah, he wrote the same thing on my RiD Optimus Prime picture card thingie. He autographed my toy too, but there wasn't enough space to write that phrase. ;)

I don't watch dubs, but I guess that must be RiD Prime's iconic line... which is interesting because in the original Car Robot, Fire Convoy's iconic line is 例え宇宙の果てまでだろうと、正義の呼ぶ声は必ずやって来る which means "Until the ends of the universe I shall absolutely heed the call to justice." (conversely Black Convoy (RiD Scourge)'s flagship line is 例え宇宙の果てまでだろうと、悪の呼ぶ声は必ずやって来る - "Until the ends of the universe I shall absolutely heed the call to evil.")

I must say though that I never had a problem with my Archadis when I had him, his gun always stayed nice and firmly placed in it's socket - I always thought though that his 'rotate the shield to reveal gun' gimmick was pretty cool really and well executed. :cool:

Japanese Beast Wars toys are great. Mach Kick (the other contest winning concept with Archadis) is well worth looking out for too IMHO. (Great modes but a pain to transform). I got the two-pack.


I think its the whole series, but it's annoying coz I can't find the blasted thing.

It is the whole thing plus the exclusive prose short story Bullets, but it came out at Target so long ago (at least December last year (http://www.otca.com.au/boards/showpost.php?p=208239&postcount=9)) that it's not unexpected that's it hard to get now.

Awesome! I'm really loving some of the more 'obscure' Beasties at the moment.
The Cohrada VS Saberback two pack is my next purchase. All the same, I'd be interested to hear your thoughts on him...

Cheers dude, I'm glad that there is anther person picking up these figures as they are really quite cool. ;):)

Cohrada: Size-wise he's about half a cm taller than Classicsverse Starscream (In Bot mode) with his Alt mode height being variable. :cool:
His colour scheme is good and like most of the Neo figures he has a little smirk/smile on his Bot mode face. :D
Transformation is quite intuitive, if you've ever had a BM Nightviper you'll get the feel of his transformation quite easily, but the way his arms assemble are a little odd as his left arm is on a hinged lever assembly which is doesn't plug in anywhere but, along with his whip-arm, it has slightly hampered poseability due to his 'Poncho' but it still works quite well though. :o

Saberback: From memory, like most of the Neo Dinosaurs he has a little too much 'Shellforming' going on be he is definitely the cooler bloke out of the bunch as he has this cool crown in bot mode and his odd 'Flower Gun', formed by his tail section splitting, is also pretty narly. ;)

I'm sorry I can't give you more on Saberback as it's been a while since I had him (Should not of gotten rid of him but you learn :o) and I'll be in the hunt to reacquire him and the others down the track. :)


I think its the whole series, but it's annoying coz I can't find the blasted thing.

I know I keep saying it but next time I go to Shellharbour I'll try and grab yo one man, we just haven't been over that way in a while. :o


I like where these ideas are heading :D You could have your reception in the gallery 1AZRAEL1 :cool: Everyone's a winner!

That sounds like a sweet idea, let's go with that one Azrael! :p:D


Japanese Beast Wars toys are great. Mach Kick (the other contest winning concept with Archadis) is well worth looking out for too IMHO. (Great modes but a pain to transform). I got the two-pack.

I agree Machkick is good when he is in either of his modes... Getting him there though is an absolute nightmare and is the reason why I was initially turned off of Japanese Beast Wars figures. :o
I think the fact that he is basically comprised of a million Ball-joints is what lets him down but in saying that, they allow for a hell of a lot of poseability. ;)


Mmmmm... Tripredacus Agent, tasty. There's one on eBay atm, if it had its backing card, I'd be talking about it like it was already on its way to me :rolleyes:

Bugger the backing card man just grab it - They're hard enough to come by let alone 100% complete with packaging etc. ;):cool:


I love the tripredacus agent! Nice! What are the others you were after?

Cheers man :D,
The other 2 I'm after are Tripredacus Agent/Shadow Panther (http://www.tfu.info/1999/Predacon/TripredacusAgent/tripredacusagent.htm) and Metals Ravage-X9 (http://www.tfu.info/1999/Destron/Ravage/ravage.htm) - Both of whom are quite expensive and hard to come by. :o


WOW Hursty!! congrats!! ... hmmmmm gold chrome on that kitty is awesome, but I still prefer the original Botcon Ravage mold ;)

Cheers dude, I hope that you're enjoying your trip - The chrome is in spectacular condition for a loose figure and I've got to say that he is quite awesome and that at some point I will have my hands on that mold you mention. ;):p


hey, that's an awesome looking figure. The cobra mode looks scary too. :eek:

Cheers dude, I agree with you on the alt mode as it does an exceptional job of achieving a Snake's form utilising solid and inflexible materials - He is honestly a great figure. :cool:

a guy from sydney had them on ebay, there was an optimus one too but i lost it at the last minute, which was one of the most crushing moments of my ebay transforming life. To know that chances are i will never see a 1985 optimus prime chocolate wrapper again...

I was actually searching ebay for the he-man versions of these when i found the transformers ones.

It is amazing what some people will keep, and even more amazing that they probably made quite a bit of money just for opening his chocolates carefully and keeping them for 20+ years. :D

With thanks to the coolest Catilla on the block, Monsieur Loophole, lookee what arrived this week. :D

Ahhh I'm so very excited to have these toys!! The colours on Breakdown are so unusual to see on a Transformer but they work and he just looks **** hot. His head sculpt is fantastic with an expression that's just charged with emotion, you can really see the pain in the face of this troubled character. I'd forgotten how much I enjoy the Rodimus mould transformation, especially "un-breaking" his ankles for robot mode. Would love to have seen Breakdown snapping his legs into place in a TFA episode or two...So cool. :D

Another favourite, The Motormaster, is similarly impressive and manages to look quite unique despite sporting the over-used Voyager Prime mould. Again, the head sculpt is a real triumph and compliments the equally angular chassis perfectly. After reading Toxitron's bio (which for all characters is presented on cardboard just like the G1 toys!!) this might not be the last of the Voyager Prime mould either as it makes mention of a Nemesis Prime in the TFA universe. Another one to look forward to at some point hopefully!

The bio's are all really fantastic and go a long way towards making you appreciate these awesome characters even more. I could go on all day about this years Bot Con toys but I'll leave it at that for now. Suffice it to say, if you're a huge TFA fan you need these in your collection! Sell a kidney if you have to :p

Not pictured: Both sets of Botcon 2011 cards & both TFA lithographs (will post pics once they're framed).
