[Alpha Supreme]

First I love me some alliteration!
(Technically some below are June purchases)
I bought the Optimus Prime real 3D glasses (my partner and I watch all movies at the cinema in 3D)... they even transform. Optimus's "ear wings" fold out then fold away to store in the glasses case (bag) that it came with. I felt super geeky but I love them. They even came in time to see the movie for the first time, Win!!!
Full set of 'Wreckers'... sweet at $15ea.
YOTH OP $115 in Myer sale on it's way in the post.
Masterpiece Sideswipe, Bluestreak, G2 Sideswipe $40ea (I was swindled here folks as they were KO's... grrrr... my own fault... although I don't condone KO's these are pretty excellent recreations.)

[crankcase76]

Sort of a mini haul today for the crankster, but all in all pretty happy....:D

[Oberon Sexton]

Got a big lot in the mail today from two places. I bought a couple loose figures from Jinto of this forum board, and I'm happy with everything. Secondly, I got my Scoria and MP Prowl from TFIDOWNUNDER. I love my Scoria, it's so damn baller. As for Prowl, honestly a little disappointed. The only other MP I have is MP-10 Prime, and after getting Prowl as my first car MP, I feel these car MPs aren't worth the $75 price (personal opinion).

Arise, Blastermus Prime! :D :p

[autobreadticon]

I got Vector Sigma to display with my classicverse collection, it made me wonder since Botcon toys do not use new moulds how did this mould come about. It looks like an oversized golf ball

[koolkollectibleskhai]

Stumbled across these at Toys'R'Us in Australia! Since I got the first 7 G1 related Kreo combiners, I figured I may as well get these last two! It looked like TRU had a whole heap of new stock come in.

AFAIK it was an authorised third party product by the Lukis brothers (the guys who run Unicron.com).

[spiderken17]

What is with the all-red prime? Can someone educate me please?

[Krayt]

Red prime is the Music Label exclusive, 1000 pieces, linked to some band. The music label had 3 primes, normal, white and this.

I've always wanted a music label Prime (regular). Apparently it doesn't work with iPod touches though. :( A reissue for newer iDevices would be good.

Generations Tankor for me today.

As they were Japanese releases, I've never tracked down a power supply for my 3. Only ever opened 1 as well.

[liegeprime]

Technically June but, I wasn't able to post photos ( hard using a tablet and sloooow wifi) so here's my TF related hauls while on holidays. Not much really. not that there's not much on offer, it's more there's not much I'm after...

Sorry Sinnertwin, but it's the same figure, I should've removed the second pic as that was kinda misleading, sorry

Sorry Oberon but the set is already spoken for. :o

Jazzcomp all from local retail there.

[speros]

As they were Japanese releases, I've never tracked down a power supply for my 3. Only ever opened 1 as well.

I have the regular Optimus, You can get a multi adapter power supply from Harvey Norman.

The only downside is if you don't have an ipod you have to use an AUX cable to use it and mobile phones these days are louder than the speakers. makes a great display piece though

[GoktimusPrime]

Got TF Prime Bluestreak today.


You can get a multi adapter power supply from Harvey Norman.
Last time I checked, they weren't cheap. :( Heh... getting a transformer for a Transformer. ;) :D

[ILikeSoundwave]

Picked up the Kreo Lockdown air assault and Scorn street chase from Myer today.
Also from Myer are these two AOE Shirts:

They also had a Optimus shirt in the same style as Lockdown and another one with Optimus, Bee and Grimlock and it says "I like big bots and I cannot lie":D Unfortunately I didn't have my phone to snap some pics then.

Im right there with ya! Bayverse is awful!! That Roadbuster is awesome! Does he come with stickers?

[The_Black_Sheep]

Roadbuster came from my favourite online store while the Botcon guys' came from Ebay.


Im right there with ya! Bayverse is awful!! That Roadbuster is awesome! Does he come with stickers?

From the past 4 Bayverse movies, I own a combined total of 5 figures (Bludgeon, Lockdown, Hubcap, Seaspray & Big Daddy). That's it! :D

Roadbuster has even more stickers than Whirl does. It took me an hour to apply them all yesterday afternoon...

and Big daddy isn't even a movie mold (TFCyb) at that hehehe. :D Having heard that about the stickers, I think when I get mine I wouldn't bother with all of em, so far I haven't even used the ones for Whirl, was thinking of just putting on faction symbols and that's it. Yeah, Im lazy heheheh.:o

[VERT]

R these online purchases?

Please where did you order Roadbuster?

[Bumbleb33]

I received a remarkably fast package from ehobbybaseshop containing TF AOE Movie Advanced Optimus, Dino, Jolt as well as TF Generations Tailgate and Skrapnel.

I also recently picked up AOE Drift, Slash, Strafe, Kreo Drift and all the Construct Bot Dinobots.

[techx]

Managed to get this b4 going to the movie and this was much better then the movie. Can't believe it was under $100. Thanks to Lio.

Very nice mate. Better hide that Scoria or else you may get told off for posting it here :p

[millhouse]

Snagged the original TRU release of Masterpiece Grimlock. Unlike the 2014 MP-03 Hasbro release, the older version has different paint apps that make more in line with the original toy. He's displayed in robot mode.

If the 2014 MP-03 ever arrives (don't ask. I've got that many emails back and forth with i-Parcel at the moment), it'll be displayed in robot mode with the boots from Scoria and the accessories from the recent Takara reissue.

The recent Takara reissue is displayed in dino mode, and will show off some of the Takara-only accessories, and the Hasbro Cybertron-convention one is rocking his convention-only apron in dino mode.

[CHILENO20]

Went to OzComic-con & picked up Generations Bumblebee & Generations Doubledealer. Thanks to Omega Metro for Generations Tailgate & Skrapnel as well!!! :D:D:D

There's nothing yet new in the stores so... I got these cute little buggers instead. So nice they might pass for Monopoly placers. :D Pardon for blurry and dark pics, orange light and shaky hands not a good combi.

Were you just selective, or was there no Bumblee there either? I can't find him anywhere

[sideswipes brother]

Damn right! I would love that.

[High_Q]

All the Bumblebees will be part of wave 2 as reported in this thread (http://www.otca.com.au/boards/showthread.php?t=18216).

The way Voyager Roadbuster was displayed at Toyair was an injustice to the toy, it looks wonderful when positioned up right

Bee is part of Series 2. Read it from the checklist they had with the figures. Hopefully we wont get gipped with the second wave.... you know how often we get skipped of TF stuff.

So since to complete the hologram puzzle you need all the figures I bought the movie themed ones this morning along with some cute TF Spuds.

Mildura is so crap that it took an unnecessary amount of hunting to find those little 30th anniversary guys. Grabbed these two and I replaced my DVD of the animated movie with the Bluray. I was very tempted to grab the Covenant of Primus book but I decided to pass.

Just a warning. If you are planning on wearing that colour change T-shirt, the coloured dye/ink (what ever it is that makes it change colour) doesn't last 5 seconds. It washes away after a few washes.:eek:

Just a warning. If you are planning on wearing that colour change T-shirt, the coloured dye/ink (what ever it is that makes it change colour) doesn't last 5 seconds. It washes away after a few washes.:eek:

That sucks, I bought one while I was there in June.


OMG! that plushie is sooooo damn cool, my brother and his partner are about to have a baby... i'd love to get him one.

Some of their stuff can be purchased from the Universal online store, and I recall hearing that postage rates were reasonable.

I think it refers to decepticons causing devastation, and not the gestalt mode of the constructicons, based off the language describing the autobots (and the captions near the Sideswipe/Sunstreaker figures).

That's a cool piece of Australian transformers history right there. very cool.

[Paulbot]

Possibly. I read it as them misinterpreting the boxes (like called their Prime toys "Autobot Commanders"). We need to track down the prize winners! :)

It's the capitalisation of the "C" in Commanders that makes me think it's the case.

Nice work.

I was thinking of trying to get this one as well, but wasn't as excited about it, and then ended up not going back to the store in time due to a bout of illness during that time.

It isn't easy getting hold of those full-size displays, as it took a lot of effort for me to get the one from two years ago (giant Optimus truck), but failed to get the one last year that I wanted (it was a Spiderman display, but had a really nice City diorama).

Getting it home would have been tough too.

[griffin]

A VERY interesting artefact there.

The $1000 of Transformers would have been pretty awesome, if you think about their retail prices back then. I wouldn't have thought we would have had that many by that stage to make up $1000, but at the very least, it would have been a fairly complete collection of toys if most of the 1985 toys were out by the middle of the year.

[Paulbot]

I read it like that at first too, but its "a share of" the prize. The $1000 worth of toys got split between 10 major winners and 50 minor winners. I'm still curious about the Devestators, an odd word to use and capitalise if you don't mean Devastator.

[GoktimusPrime]

I think it refers to decepticons causing devastation,
Or "devestation" as the case may be. :p ;)

[theshape]

July stuff. Sudden burst of extra income made me spent more than usual. The Evolution 2-pack dinobots were scanning at $24.99. I thought they were $39.99. So picked them up.

Thanks mate

I saw that you had the Optimus truck display and thought that I should get one myself.

It was a lot of work to get it home as they are put together surprisingly well, and I broke a shelf off when I tried to take the first display case apart. So I just end up taking Grimlock's head and the non-broken shelf home. My van was very full.

Generations Strafe from Target sale, $18.

[ILikeSoundwave]

Generations Strafe from Target sale, $18.

I wasn't aware Generations deluxes are on sale. Might have to finally pick up High Octane Bee.

[Paulbot]

I wasn't aware Generations deluxes are on sale. Might have to finally pick up High Octane Bee.

Nor was I. I keep debating with myself about buying Crosshairs, but for under $20 maybe I can.

[Stompy]

I scanned a few deluxes (Drift, HO Bumblebee) and they were scanning as $30 with "Constructobots" tag. I've a feeling someone stuffed up. May be specific incident in my local Target. Would have picked up Slash and Scorn otherwise.

[Paulbot]

I bought Scorn and Slug from Target when they first came out, and they were both "Constructobots" in the computer and on my receipt. Would have thought they might fix that by now.

Are AOE toys considered generations? :confused:

Yes, any of the non-gimmick ones are collector focused "Generations (http://www.hasbro.com/transformers/en_US/shop/browse/Transformers/Generations/_/N-1rZgtZrb/Ne-2l)" toys. So basically, the Deluxes, Voyagers and Leaders.

Thanks for the clarification. Confusing since the generations line has its own packaging & none of the previous movie toys were called generations

[ChlorHex]

& these two guys bring my collection up to 649... (not too big, not too small... http://i305.photobucket.com/albums/nn204/Pulse_Warrior/Random/LOL.gif)

Wow.
I wasn't aware that Ratbat could actually transform into bat mode... I need to find me a piece now.

Thanks to Shirokaze for the Energon Shockblast... if it weren't for the gimmick for this toy, the arm cannon would've been awesome...

Here he is showing his disdain for my new issue of MTMTE #31 freshly picked from local PZ... particularly according to him, this unacceptable turn of events re: Megatron... hahahah

First impressions were pretty good. I'm hoping to take some pictures and post in the leader class Grimlock review thread this weekend.

[MayzaPrime]

RotF deluxe class Ratchet came in today.

Interested to know your thoughts as I think these are garbage. I bought one during the BigW toy sale and I am certain I can shine more light out of my ass than these. Plus it flashed between 2 colours with no option of keeping the brighter red to stay lit up by itself. Just a dull orange colour that doesn't light up the whole Autobot logo, just the centre.

Ah, so you've confirmed for me that it might not just be mine then!! I was annoyed that the standard on mode of the light for the Autobot version is the frickin yellow, not the red!! When it pulsates between the two it looks pretty good. But with just the yellow, it's just off. I think it's a design or manufacturing error. I'll be contacting 3D Light FX for sure on Mon!!

The Decepticon version is OK, with the purple being much nicer. I did notice that you really need new batteries, or the light is not very bright. Once I put new batteries in there, the brightness wasnt too bad.

My video review is uploading now.

Just watched it and it definately must be the way they are supposed to be with that dull yellow light. It's a shame really as they have huge potential. I ended up taking mine back for a refund as I expect more 'light' for $35. Where did you get the Decepticon one from?

I bought both direct from 3D Light FX website www.3dlightfx.com.au

I'll call them on Mon to see what they have to say.

It's not AFA... I forgot whom I bought it from here, but it was sold to me with the case free along with it so why not hehehe (the figure in the box is MISB though). If I ever do, Ill keep that in mind but for now, no plans. :D;)

[Joshy]

That happened to me when I asked about Strafe a week before the sale. They said the description must have been changed, but that's still the same item price. I ended up with it for $18 in the sale anyway. Don't know what's up if everyone else isn't getting that.

Gotta love great customer service!! When I did the review for the new Transformers 3D lights, I noted that the Autobot had the wrong coloured glow in one of its modes.

So I contacted the importer here in Australia, who contacted the manufacturer. They have now identified that there is a fault in the production, they will do a running production change to make sure the lights glow RED, and will send me a replacement when they come in!!

If any of you out there have bought this, definitely contact 3D Light FX and ask them about a replacement!
