Brought the Xbox Starter Kit in the middle for $8 for the game included (cheaper than second hand at EB or downloading from Microsoft), but the bonus is that I learnt that the Live membership works!

So score.

[griffin]

Got today what is technically a Christmas present. Had to return some clothes someone bought me for Christmas (why do people bother buying clothes for others, when they rarely manage to get something they like or their size?), and while at Kmart, I went to buy the complete Seinfeld box set. The price I was expecting was $300, but it came up as $240. The lady said they were having a 20% off DVD sale for today only. That with my staff discount, I was saving $72 off that one box set, making it much cheaper than BigW's $264 (the cheapest I have seen it at, but can never find it when I can afford it). It works out to be about $28 per season, which is still pretty expensive, but is a lot cheaper than the $45-60 single season sets.
With that sort of saving, I decided to get the Complete Bond set (all 21 movies) as well, which was priced at $370, but the discounts brought it down to $280 (which is about $13 per movie).
I've now got a lot of watching of TV to do...

[Fungal Infection]

[TheDirtyDigger]

Finally some new LEGO!

Rogue Shadow, the ship of Vader's apprentice and the Clone AT-AP.
Also some Imperial dropships because what's an empire without an army?
Some cheap JLU figs. Really got this for Vixen as I don't have any of her in this scale.
And two more automobiles for the garage. Really stoked with the '70 'stang there as I don't have this model. You guys think Hasbro is bad for repaints? Jada and Maisto make their living from them.

Gamblor that is absolutely stunning. She is so incredibly gorgeous. Especially to a chronic xenophile like myself. I must have one!

Myself I got Predator Scar there last week with the voucher I received from the mothers whose daughters I coach in b'ball. Thank you greatly gracious ladies.;)
He goes together with the net-scarred Alien who I'll get at another time.

This weekend scored a bit more LEGO. Anakin's fighter from the Clone Wars cartoon, Spider and Hailfire droids and two sets of Rebel soldiers coz what's an empire without a good rebellion.
Wasn't going to touch the Mars Mission stuff but a number of things swayed me with this set; the retro G1 Space Lego logo, the old school styling of chunky wheels and aircraft taking off from ground vehicle and the clincher, this guy is nicknamed 'Digger' and actually has the words printed on the vehicle.
Also got some light reading in World War 3. Like Black Adam as a character. He's just like Spock but rage-filled and homicidal and also grabbed New Avengers Volume 4 to fulfill my Spider-Woman-Ms.Marvel fetish.

[Tiby]

I bought the internet browser for my Wii! Look at me guys, posting from my living room!

Wow! How did you do that? How much was it?

[Thanatos]

You need to get the little internet adapter (good for DS and Wii). Browser is $7.50 AUD but the "points system" they use will mean it costs at least $15 with some leftover points.

Then the rest is, as they say, history! Feel free to PM if you need more details :)

I bought a PS 3 only becuase GOD OF WAR III will only be released on it, i wasn't going to buy one until i found that out.

[Paulbot]

Third wave Super Hero Squad figures for $2.50 per pack. 75% off, total bargain and my original X-Men collection is complete. Now I just need a Storm figure to be released.

[STL]

Don't u mean almost complete, then? :p

I was gonna grab them but I just don't have the space for it and just like with my Marvel legends, they'll end up in boxes for many years and then forgotten about.

They're still mighty cool though. Even the Star Wars ones

[Paulbot]

Don't u mean almost complete, then? :p
No the original X-Men set is complete (Cyclops, Angel, Iceman, Beast and Phoenix). A Storm would keep Colossus, Wolverine and Nightcrawler company in an "All New All Different" X-Men team. :)

[roller]

a super yummy pie

Everyone always forgets Banshee & Sunfire...

[gamblor916]

So the Predators are mammals?
Actually according to the literature they are, but who really cares. Lets just call it artistic license ;)

[Paulbot]

I don't :P Banshee lost his voice and got bundled out pretty quickly and Sunfire left right after the Krakoa battle so he hardly counts. Neither have the same iconic feel as the other All New X-Men. Given how much of a push Marvel give to Storm in other merchandising her lacking a Super Hero Squad version is really weird.

Oh and you forgot about Thunderbird :P

[Tetsuwan Convoy]

Hey I got a WII game today it was ghost squad it came with a gun holder.
Nice one BB2142. How is the gun to use? I was looking at it and thinking of getting resident evil shooting game, but the set up of the gun holder looks odd, with the trigger for the gun being in the barrel (coz its attached to the wiimote and not the nunchuck).

My recent additions, are:
http://i91.photobucket.com/albums/k313/Wootnchoo/IMG_0080.jpg

Bladerunner Five disc collectors edition!!!! Waaaahooo!! Directors cut, normal version (in US and International flavours) as well as The Final cut! Came with a heap of cool post cards showing concept work and bits of info on the movie! Hotcha! Now I can watch 4 different runs of the same movie. Good thing its an awesome movie! The original book, "Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep" by Philip K Dick is different again to the movie and a damn good read too.

"Crush" for my PSP, a cool platformer that plays like Paper mario on GC and Wii, but you have more angles to go from 3d to 2d from. EG 3-d to side 2d view, or above 3-d view to top down 2-d view. Looking forward to some good puzzle fun.

Finally "Alien Syndrome," also for PSP a remake of a beat-em up by SEGA from yesteryear. It has changed quite a bit and I havent had much of a chance to play it yet. Still, for $15 it can't be that bad. Crush was $15 as well, thankyou Kmart!

[Tiby]

I got the Ghost Squad game with the gun as well! I already had one gun so now I can play 2-player. Still have to test it out.

[TheDirtyDigger]

Same...I've particularly found the Snow White / Big Bad Wolf romance to have a certain appeal to my more.......bestial nature.

Yes leigeprime...they've all been released.

Yes I have bought all of those off the shelf from my local comic store. I particularly liked Sons of Empire. The latest volume in the TPBs (#10) comes out in May.

Hard to pick a favourite character out of such a stellar cast but I do feel a sense of empathy regarding Prince Charming.

nah not really its just a reflection from the weapons of the nearby terrorcons :D
as I mentioned to yah before, I will order more once they restocked. must... have .... moooooree....

[Soundwarp]

Leigeprime those cubes look good, are they similar to the ones that come with the insecticons?

[liegeprime]

Not really Soundwarp, they only look the same in a glance at pics but the material is not similar. They're made of clear acrylic plastic, think big plastic clear dice... while the ones that came with the insecticon are rubbery translucent plastic. These things are hard plastic, but the way they bend the light in their transparent cubey goodness is pure pleasure. Its like they catch the light and make their own glow. oh and they're bigger than the ones that came with the insecticons. I saw some of these with a purple tinge as well being sold on ebay international by the makers (they're not officially Hasbro products anyway, poo on Hasbro for missing out again).
anyway some comparative pics below...:D enjoy

[springah]

Kinda OT: Hows the Gundam Seed animated? I've always loved the Gundams but the anime always bored the craps outta me.

Oh, and Revoltech Giant Robo was my Feb non-TF buy.

[Fungal Infection]

I rate Gundam Seed, Gundam Seed Destiny and Gundam Seed Stargazer as my favourite Gundam series although I'm watching Gundam 00 (Double O) at the moment which could potentially be even better. I've always found Gundam as an anime series to be better than ANY TF series released thus far although for toys, the TFs will always have a slight edge over Gundams.

There is box sets STL! The one I've included in the pic contains volume 1,2 and 3 so it's 16 episodes for 20 bucks. Not bad at all.

And speaking of Smurfs...
Went to the Melbourne International Motor Show on Saturday (love concept cars) and picked up these goodies from shops in the casino complex.

Azrael, Gargamel and B'ball Smurf from JayJays. (dude there told me new Smurf tee's are coming in real soon as well). I have about 100 Smurfs now and the ten original Asterix style comic books plus hardcover movie adaption from when I was a littl'un myself. Parents used to tease me about my love for Smurfs....bastards.

And Iron Maiden tee from Sanity.

and the ten original Asterix style comic books

Oh! I am jealous. I have two of the hardcovers (King Smurf and Weather-Smurfing Machine) and the movie adapation book, but no matter how much I search for the others I can't find them. Those books are terrific.

[springah]

FINALLY got around to getting Preacher Trade 1. Pretty good..

Also God of War for PSP, which rocks. Without it, the PSP would be damn useless!

That reminds me... anyone ever play the TF: Tatakai game?

Yeah I can't believe how hard they are to find and that they haven't reprinted them.

Today's big score...couple of new Indy sets and the biggest bonus of all....

That Harry Potter castle was on the shelf at K-mart and must have been found hiding out the back or something... I went to the price checker...$17.
I fainted, came around and went and bought it promptly. That baby is going on eBay very soon. The Harry Potter Lego I've sold in the past always has the highest number of watchers on it and they skyrocket as soon as I list. Even quicker than a UCS Death Star that starts @ 99 cents.

25 anniversary Cobra Commander - gift from my friend here in Phils. Fables TPB - Wolves , Legends in Exile, Gobot renegade leader Cykill ( 6 inch figure) in pristine condition, but the box is water damaged - good hing I dont keep boxes.

I'll take the box for that leigeprime. My Cy-kill is lonely so a box would do him good.

I have no idea why I picked this up today. I'm probably gonna donate it to these kids who live down the street from me. They'll probably get much more enjoyment out of it then I will.

[Lord_Zed]

More GI Joe 25th anniversary figures, with some exclusive new Larry Hama comics, mind you the last thing I read that Hama wrote was crap so I wonder what these will be like. The Ace and Wild Weasel set is odd to, as it has a classic comic which they hardly even feature in, I wonder why they didn't use the issue which was all about Ace and Wild Weasel??? That's Hasbro for ya.

After getting rid of this earlier in the week, I was at Castle Hill Kmart today & saw this guy for $34-35. He looked cool but I wasn't gonna fork out that much moolah. Then in Castle Hill Target I found him on sale for $24. Sold!!!

He's pretty damn cool. All he needs is an old-school supercharged V8 & he would be perfect. I'll definitely be holding onto this guy for a while before I donate him away.

Update: & he's been officially donated away. In my opinion, Lego/Technic is meant to be enjoyed & played with - & then donated to someone else so they can enjoy it too. Lego is a play toy - not a display toy.

I can't recall having seen any of these 25th anniversary Joes in any store. An "Uncle Pete's" near me has some Sigma 6 stuff but I'm pretty sure they imported them privately.

I can remember having seen Joes on the shelves in the 80's (A family friend who had a son my age had them) but since then, I believe they've pretty much dried up. But I'm probably wrong about that.

I wonder why Joes never hit the heights here in Australia as they did in the US?

All my Warriors came from the US (& more specifically from http://www.ringsidecollectibles.com/) & with me being a massive fan of the Ultimate Warrior (Well, I actually idolize him in the way in which he not only steamrolled through all his opposition in the ring but also how he stood up & kept his ground against the scourge of the business) so I seriously doubt I'll ever get rid of my Warrior figs. Sorry Mate. :)

Why is it that we can justify spending huge amounts of funds on TF's but when it comes to having to spend money on things like Ink for the Printer, it really drives us up the wall... :rolleyes:

[Tiby]

Ahhh... grudge purchases vs discretionary spending!

[TheDirtyDigger]

Tiby...Dell wont give their ink carts to any retailer forcing you to go through them online or ring India for replacements.

You have three options for cheaper alternatives;

1) Refill your existing cartridge. Saves the environment and you money.
2) JetTec make a compatible cartridge. It is good quality, made in the UK. Not cheap Chinese crap.
3) Those carts you pictured are low yield versions for your specific printer. the higher yield versions are an M4640 Black and an M4646 Colour. They have around twice the ink as the ones you have there but aren't twice the price.

[Pulse]

Thanks for the tips TheDirtyDigger. :)

I'll definitely be using those options in the future.

Not sure about the owner. The house has been derelict for some time. Think it was being used as a squat. At the moment the entire construction is halfway through being demolished so the wreckers would have been the ones that put them on the pile.

Hehe, wont know till I open them, have to stretch the pieces of Japan I captured out a bit. Fortunately I got some Revoltechs to thier posable cool and are frustration free.

I'll let you know who's the most painfull when I get round to it. Right now the winner of most painfull thing to transfrom I own is a toss up between Toynami's Legioss, and Yamato's 1/100 Yf21.

I have both toys and find the cyclone more fiddly than the SV-51. Whilst being very intricate, the SV-51 is very simple once you've transformed it a few times. On my cyclone, I find some of the parts dangle off and loose fitting but my SV-51 is rather sturdy with a solid click to every joint.

I can transform the ride armour esaily now, but to this date it's the only toy I have ever needed the instructions for - I was just scared I was going to break it cos some of the parts were so tight. Also the joints and stand are really floppy on my Ray, but Stick seems to be firmer. All the intricate details on the Ivanov took a while to figure out - especially securing the sholder in gerwalk and battroid so they don't flop everywhere. It is a really beautifuly ugly toy.

Didn't really intend to get the Shin VF-0A (I already have the stand-alone VF-0A with the Ghost booster) but at $144 Aus, couldn't pass it up. Plus shipping was free too.

[sifun]

My package was sitting in the post office without me getting notified. STUPID australia post.. GAHHHH

That Black Getter is very nice...

[Lord_Zed]

Nice Revoltech haul there Sifun, I really like the Super robot and anime Revoltechs, if anything I'm least fond of the TF ones, I blame Pat Lee for that.



OMG you must be rich!!!!!!

I wish, this kinda explains why I have so few TF's compared to almost everyone else on the board, and post infrequently in TF aquisitions.

Wow! where from? the cheapest I saw it for was around $180 Aus, a little to pricey for me. I also found the SV 51 production modle was heavily discounted, but its colour is sucky so I didn't buy it.


That Black Getter is very nice...

Any Getta rules IMO, I wish I had bought Getter 1 while I was over there, seems he's sold out everywhere else. Well at least I got Mazinkaiser.

[Fungal Infection]

My sister-in-law got it from a store in Osaka (where her family lives) along with the Freedom Gundam.

[sifun]

yeah.. was so tempted to buy more revoltechs but then I thought about my TF budget. haha

Damn this year has been giant toy spending year, I've pretty much run out of walking space in my room.

I was browsing through a memorabilia/collectibles store in Penrith today when I stumbled across a certain Revoltech figure. Thinking about how many cool pics Revlimit has taken of his Revy http://www.flickr.com/photos/revlimit/423767393/in/set-72157600044346091/ I just had to take her home. :)

http://i305.photobucket.com/albums/nn204/Pulse_Warrior/Acquisitions/RevyMISB.jpg

She comes with a 2nd head, 4 guns in total & a stand for mid-air poses like this one:

As she scoured the Black Lagoon...

Scorponok awoke from his hiding place & in a fighting mood!

http://i305.photobucket.com/albums/nn204/Pulse_Warrior/Action%20Shots/Scorponokisonedangerousopponent.jpg

In my opinion, Revy is just the coolest :D! Even Scorponok decided to behave today (My Scorponok's legs are among the loosest limbs I've ever seen on a TF)

[Pulse]

I was in a local K-Mart today when I found this for $30. With "Speed Racer" being a cartoon staple when I was a kid, I had to take him home. :)

The Mach 5 has 3 crappy gimmicks (Saw in bonnet, Missile next to Speedy & Speedy ejecting into a smaller vehicle) while Speed Racer himself looks as though it's the same mould they used for him in the 60's.

This will meet the same fate that fell upon my previous Lego/Technic acquisitions (played with & then donated to the kids who live in my street).

To those of you who are fans of online games, Here's a Speed Racer game you might like: http://www.shockwave.com/gamelanding/speedracer.jsp
My best finish is 2nd :D Correction - My best finish is 1st! Now I can stop playing it (Yay!)

Speed looks kinda cool. :cool:

Just hoping the new movie doesn't suck too much (sure looks like it will tho).

[Pulse]

This particular Mach 5 & Speed ain't that bad, but I've got a feeling they're gonna push the Mach 6 to the moon.

Having seen the full trailer online, I've gotta agree with you completely. The movie looks like it's gonna be craptacular :(. I definitely won't be forking out to watch it at the cinema but I will be renting it on DVD.

[TheDirtyDigger]

I watched the trailer at the cinema which was a little hard to follow with the Michael Bay-like effects. Watching it on Youtube from a distance was much easier to see what was going on.
I think what it will lack in decent plot, dialogue and story it should make up for in CGI. I have kids anyway who will love it so it'll be a cinema experience for me.

I don't know why the Predalien is called a hybrid, all aliens are hybrids. The traditional alien is a human/alien hybrid. Shouldn't they all have the fancy hybrid name?

My birthday present to myself, picked up the keys today.

[Tiby]

Congrats Paul! And happy birthday!

[Tober]

HB Paulbot.

That's a nice 1:1 scale toy car.

[dirge]

Happy birthday. Shame about the plate colours (should be yellow & black!), but the car looks nice.

[STL]

Happy birthday, Paulbot! I hope it transforms.

[iceburn]

Happy birthday, Paulbot! I hope it transforms.

yeah, it transformed his cash into a car... :P


Happy birthday. Shame about the plate colours (should be yellow & black!), but the car looks nice.

hmmmm, get a custom number plate!!! wish i could but future wife disagreed...well, now half of my collection (like all other married fans) belongs to her (the wife)

[Tiby]

Is that the AUstralian version of the Chevy Aveo?

[Paulbot]

It's a Holden Viva -- which a bit of googling tells me is not a Aveo but it's pretty close relative I think. But now I'm thinking I may need to get the Chevy Aveo Transformer as a close enough representative :)

[Kyle]

It was a sad day when I sold my Alt Meister :(

But with Camaro coming to Australia... decisions decisions...

It was a sad day when I sold my Alt Meister :(

But with Camaro coming to Australia... decisions decisions...

What I would do (just like I've done to my first car - which I've had for 10 years now) is buy something a couple of years older (so that you save a fair bit on those over-inflated new car costs) & go absolutely ballistic on it :D.

Hell my first car (A nissan pulsar - Yep, that's where Pulse comes from :)) was factory-stock but now sporting a heavily worked N/A 4 cylinder engine, the biggest rims it could fit, race-bred suspension, SAAS buckets & a whole host of others mods - it's basically a circuit racer masquerading as a street cruiser :). It handles Eastern Creek, Oran Park & Wakefield Park extremely well and just thinking about it makes me wanna take it out for a drive (atleast I don't push it as hard as I used to - when I was young & dumb, the copper said he couldn't keep up with me when I hit 170km in a 40km. But somehow instead of sending me to jail, he defected my car stupid, let me off on the speeding fine & I went down to my Uncle's workshop the next day and got my defects cleared right up :D - & my family have no idea any of this happened. The only place I hit those speeds these days is the racetrack)

Finally found one of my grails, a Narin sculpted elder predator. Also Minmay macross kit and white decal sheets.

Anyone interested in the Shin Getter-1? It was purchased for a friend but his cash has dried up and he won't be able to pay until the end of the month so he's given his blessing for it to be sold off. Its only been opened for inspection. PM if interested.
