Nice pickup on the Tigerhawk man!:)

I got these beauties today:
These two finally complete my TFC collection.
I made the mistake of skipping these ones when they originally got released. Been chasing after them ever since :o Ideally, I'd like to upgrade a few to better condition ones, but I'm content with the ones I have for now.

And this guy!! Grimlock is one of my fondest memories as a kid. I still remember seeing him on the shelf, and excitedly picking him up :D
And this is an awesome specimen. No yellowing to the plastic, and the clamshell has barely a mark on it. Looks like he came straight from the shelf. Only a few more to go before I complete my personal G2 MOSC collection

OK, cool.

I thought you were a contestant for a second, I don't watch it religiously but I am impressed with some of the food they turn out.

Question, was your experience real time or was there stopping and starting to get good angles and interview the contestants?

Originally I planned to get 50 Transformers in June, but unfortunately I wasn't able to get these 2 in time (however I did kinda get 50 if you included the 2 robot heroes)

But anyways, here's what I got today in the mail :D

Picked up latest TF comics yesterday. Store sold me a spare copy of Combiner Wars Part 5 (subscription cover variant), which I don't really care about, but I was in a hurry at the time so I just paid for the pile of comics without looking through them individually. Anyone want this spare cover version (I haven't even read it)? I'll see if I can refund it...

Not going to let July get away from me as June did! :p


On Thursday I had a sizeable & weighty package arrive from the persistently awesome team at Hobby Link Japan:

https://pbs.twimg.com/media/CI5PdzsUcAA-kST.jpg


...contained within was a host of Transforming fun!

(Re-Re-Rerelease) TakaraTomy Masterpiece: MP-10 - Convoy
TakaraTomy Unite Warriors: UW-01 - Superion/Aerialbots

https://pbs.twimg.com/media/CI5PemKUwAAmtl1.jpg:large


I was somewhat "Brow-beaten" by the lovely local TF peeps on Twitter, :p, into just coming to my senses and Preordering MP-10 - I LOVE my MP-04, always will, but holy crap were people right in just how much refinement is present in this mold! :eek:
He's lovely to transform, pose & repeat - The lack of heft makes him a little less cumbersome to handle compared to his predecessor and he just looks like a bloody tough Bot, funnily enough not diminished in any way by standing next to MP Magnus who is just a Brick-****house! :p:D

UW-01 Superion/Aerialbots are a fun bunch too; Simple transformations, great articulation, but once "United" they kinda loose a bit of magic...

Sure, Superion looks great (Barring the hands & feet which look ridiculous) but I find the hip/thigh ratchets don't have enough meaningful detents to produce decent dynamic postures - He looks fine standing in an upright, idle pose but move a leg out by one detent and the "Kid-friendliness" becomes apparent. :o
Much like the enjoyment I derive from the early Power Rangers: Megazord toys, however, pulling him apart & putting him back together is his best feature and as a whole a far superior execution compared to that of poor 'ole FoC: Bruticus. ;):D

Hot on the heals of this lot though, was a rather miraculous series of finds today between TRU & Myer. :)
At TRU I found Alpha Bravo, completing my Classicsverse Aerialbots :cool: and at Myer I found CW Rook, First Aid, Blades & Streetwise! :eek::D

https://pbs.twimg.com/media/CJHphEBUEAA2Ed_.jpg:large


...I can't wait to getting around to opening them up and mucking around with them, now I've just gotta get a hold of Hotspot! ;):)

CW Viper to display in either alt mode or as a weapon. If (like Superion or Menasor) extra limbs come out from Hasbro for CW Defensor or Bruticus (you know who I'm talking about), Galvatronus might get displayed combined, along with a neat weapon. :P

Otherwise, he's going next to the other Viper, currently displayed in robot mode.

We've been repainting the study at the moment and I'm thinking of buying some Kallax shelving from Ikea to display my masterpieces. a 5x5 will have me totally covered, space-wise.

http://www.ikea.com/au/en/catalog/products/S39020506/

A couple of reasons actually (though a very good suggestion).

1) cost
2) I'd rather have the extra height of the 5x5 Kallax. Will enable more of the taller MPs (Magnus, Prime, original MP Prime, pretty much all but Star Sabre) to fit, as well as enabling me to get some risers for back row figures. Most of my MPs are currently still at my parents place and most of the cars are currently in an older version of the same furniture. I can fit about 7 cars in various modes per cube quite nicely so I should be pretty sweet all up.

The idea is Lambos in one, Datsuns in another, Wheeljack/Bee, Tracks/Roadrage, Takara MP Soundwave/Soundblaster, TRU Soundwave, YOTG Soundwave, with (possibly) some of the larger things (3P Dinobots, Devvy, etc) on the top shelf along with a Prime and Magnus in truck mode.

Good suggestion though, but I'm looking at maximising what space I have. Plus I need to get a nice cabinet for my Hot Toys/SST 1/6th scale things too. Looking at a Stockholm but am not sure where it will go in the house yet.

liegeprime
9th July 2015, 02:51 PM
Aaah I see what you mean millhouse. yeah those tall figures wont fit easy ...

hmmm, Hot toys look great in showcase Glass Shelves so you have to have a pretty good budget for it though

Too rich for my blood unfortunately! I'm thinking that I'll end up checking out the Stockholm first, but I might end up with a couple of Detolfs. As my 1/6 collection is pretty small and very slow in expanding, I've just got to take some measurements of bases, etc.

So far I'm thinking;

Shelf one: Mezco One:12 TDKR Batmen
Shelf two: 89 Batman, 89 Mime Joker, 89 Joker,
Shelf three: Hot Toys T2 (first one), Hot Toys T1 and Battle Damaged T1
Shelf four: RoboCop, Snake Plissken x2 (don't ask), Marty McFly

Unfortunately I'd really like to display the Mime Joker's base and backdrop but it's quite large...

liegeprime
9th July 2015, 03:14 PM
oh hehehe, well at least you've got the link in case funds become a no issue heheheh ;), have a browse thru as well, they have different category ones which are cheaper than the presenting link I gave you :P

I have seen someone display 2 detolfs next to each other semi connected in the middle, they didn't put the side glass ( 1 for its left, the other its right panel) for each so it looked like one big continuous display shelf, though there is that small gap of course...

Glyph. Chest insignia is not centred very well, paint app on the face (namely the eye visor) aren't filled in properly, right foot appears to be slightly discoloured compared with the rest of the blue plastic, left foot is looser and doesn't quite sit flush in vehicle mode.

Way to go, Botcon 2002.

I got these too last night, and picked up UW Superion from tfidownunder too. All I can say is Rook is ... terrible in my opinion. Terrible robot , wish for proper hands, terrible leg mode which is a shame because I wanted first aid as an arm... like I said in UW Guardian thread I wish I was getting it rather than hasbro... and even more so last after last night... (Anyone wanna buy complete CW defensor? >_<).

What I can say though is it's more stable by far than Menasor, though I havent done a hip ratchet fix on motormaster (shouldnt have to), Blackjack is held on by bluetac, and his feet are bluetac'd down, after my very slight wife walked into the room and her sitting down sent a gentle tremor through the floor, making the bookshelf shake almost unnoticably, but it was enough for menasor to tip a little forward, blackjack fall off onto the floor 6' below, and the weight shift tipped menasor backwards (lucky for the wall, and no small parts to fall off behind the shelf).

prjkt
12th July 2015, 05:46 PM
with the seeker mould, the legs have two stages of extension, can take a bit of force to get the second stage out - give that a shot.

as for the lean, that's just from the perspective of the weird crop I did late the other night -you can see they're all leaning slightly to the right, Grapple & Magnus especially

Thanks to Megatran for braving the cold and wet to deliver these to me this morning. Haven't opened Trypticon yet but glad to finally own one - he's a big as I expected but funnily enough I was surprised by how big Blunt is. First two CW toys I've really played with and I like them. The legs transformation wasn't what I expected.

What was shipping cost and time like for these guys?

shipping cost was $80 singapore. I thought it was a bit expensive, since i've had a larger order from chimungmung for half the price and a similar order from them and from robotkingdom was going to be a lot cheaper too when trying to work out some estimates and comparisons. they said that was for 'EMS' and there would be a cheaper option but it would take 4 to 6 weeks...I don't know anything about it but have seen someone use the word 'EMS' here before, is it a common service?

is it actually expensive or a reasonable shipping cost, for people who are more frequent online purchasers? I know these stores are in different locations but I kinda figured they would all be fairly consistent being close together in asia :confused:
at the end of the day I just went with it because it was the only place I could find that had both those items in stock available to buy now and it got here in about 8 days or so.

I don't know anything about it but have seen someone use the word 'EMS' here before, is it a common service?EMS means Express Mail Service, it's their post services version of our express post.
Generally it's more expensive to post via EMS but sometimes if your order is larger then the store thinks, they will be able to upgrade your parcel to EMS for free.
At least that's been my experience with Robot Kingdom in the past

TFRiD2015 Fracture w/ Airazor from Target's Toy Sale. :)
I was tempted to get Drift too, but I'm only interested in Jetstorm and I can't justify paying $23 for a Mini-Con. :p


Finally! G1 Actionmaster Elite Turbomaster.

Only 1 more actionmaster to get :D

july was a smaller month but for once everything was bought locally!

Considering the toy sales being on in the last month, it was surprisingly a small month for me too.
I only ended up with the two RID Deployers and Collector Club Nacelle for July... which had me double-checking all my recent toys, because I didn't think it could be that few (for me at least). :(

I found it the same mostly, I think because most of what was in the toy sales I either already had, or had no interest in.
