Signed grumpy old person.

Minibots arrived today to complete all the G1 Walmart reissues to date. Never had any of the minibots - they are so tiny (but cool)! Have a spare Bumblebee to sell if anyone can meet up in Sydney City or Wollongong.

Masterpiece Dinobot also arrived today.

Excellent, $20 and it's yours mate.

[MayzaPrime]

Lock it in mate, will have the $$ with me when we catch up or...

Can this payment be made in the form of beer :D:p

[Silverbolt]

I finally get to complete my core autobot headmasters cast. Fortress Maximus arrived today from BBTS.

Also in the box was studio series Blackout and Gridlock. I can finally play catch up and see what all the fuss is about.

Speaking of catch up, the package also included Titans return Bumblebee and Beachcomber.

Challenge now is to try and prolong the pleasure and not open them all at once.

Haha, a chicken schnitty and a beer should be about right. ;)

[Handsprime]

I picked up Barney the Dinosaur from Big W Rouse Hill today for $99 :D

[Deano85]

Package from BBTS arrived today:
POTP Snarl
POTP Sludge

Uncle's Pete's order arrived... Cyberverse Warrior OP (yeap it's bad) and... POTP OP instead of Optimus Primal :(:( So have chased up with an email and we'll see how it goes.

[i_amtrunks]

My first TF purchase since last year, PotP Optimus Primal and TW Kup.

[Dimi194]

[1AZRAEL1]

Got CW Megatron with the DX9 upgrade. I like both versions of the G1, but the upgrade will likely go onto the Takara one.

And later, will be picking up a set of the purple botcon junkions. A nice day.

[CHILENO20]

Picked up Primemasters Octopunch, Bludgeon & Bomb Burst the other day.

[shockNwave]

Keeping with an aquatic theme, I picked up Alchemist Prime and Solus Prime.

Nice thanks 70$ isn’t that bad considering we will never be able to locally get him

[Handsprime]

Bunch of Minicons from Dirge :D

[lukewhat]

Went a bit wild lately.

Picked up Titans Return, Trypticon, Overboard, Apeface, and Ramhorn.

Also came across a lone TLK Voyager Hound marked at $19 at a Casey's Toys and thought "Why not?"

[Dimi194]

Uncle Pete's corrected their mistake so I now have POTP Optimal Optimus and man, such a cool looking bot (never would have thought a monkey-orange and blue robot would be something I'd enjoy but happy to be mistaken!)

[MayzaPrime]

Picked up the following from Kmart in Belconnen today

Studio Series BB
PP - Megatronus
PP - Solus Prime
PP - Quintus Prime

[CHILENO20]

UW-05 thanks to Ploughmans_Lunch :D

[TaZZerath]

I nabbed a POTP Battleslash/Roadtrap (for the sole need for BattleTrap) and Amazon Exclusive Nemesis Prime off eBay. BattleTrap is fiddly to the extreme in the separate Legends forms, no robot mode weapons but looks a treat in combined form and will likely stay this way. Nemesis Prime is a true gem and I have done up a review on him.

[DELTAprime]

Got my Repugnus from Amazon US via Shopmate. I'll open him a little later enjoy him.

I should note that customs decided to open the shipping packet up and check inside. Nothing damaged and the seal on Repugus is intact, but I wish I knew why they had to do that. I've only ever had two packages opened by customs since I started ordering online 20 odd years ago, but it's still really odd.

Maybe they thought you were insect smuggling :D

All the PotP prime masters

[Bidoofdude]

RTS Tracks and Henkei Alert from Mayza. Great stuff. Only a few Autobot cars left to go:

- Bluestreak
- Ironhide, Mirage, Hound
- Hoist

Exciting. I wish they’d made Bluestreak out of CW Prowl so it wouldn’t be damn impossible to get one.

Glad you like them... I might be willing to sell my Gen, Hoist, Hound and Bluestreak. Let me have a look for them and I will get back to you
