heh, yeah something like that. I do have to say that he looks great in plane mode, but a bit spindly in robot mode and he's bloody easy to transform. it took all of five minutes to convert him!

These puppies arrived on Monday but I only had the chance to pick them up today. Many thanks to hanprimus for selling me his TFC Screamer, he's absolutely stunning! Really pleased with both of these toys, and the condition of Prime is nothing short of immaculate! Top image is taken from http://destrong.freewebsitehosting.com/stampings.html but it's the exact same as what's written on the underside of my Prime's trailer. All other photo's were taken by myself this arvo. :D

Bit strange but he came with one bloated fist and one normal fist. So I guess he can panch Megatron with his right one then blast him using his weaker left one. :D

Haven't really bought much lately haven't had the $$$ coz this is big bills month, but was in Salvos today looking for a shirt I could get my gf to do stuff to, so I can wear it for her 21st & I decided to have a peak at the toys and strangely enough I came across a Masterpice Starscream Crown, and when I went to pay for it the lady said I could have it for free. I have to say thats the strangest thing I have found at a salvos.

Btw, his shorter sword is a tanto (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tant%C5%8D), not a Wakizashi (TFwiki erronously calls it a Wakizashi, but the instructions specifically state it's a tanto). I'll edit it and hope nobody undoes it. (>_>)

The swords combines as well Gok like that of Darth Mauls which is really neato IMO, doubly deadly unless Bludgeon's clumsy and cuts himself accidentally hehehe

Only had a Sideswipe left this morning.

Anywho nabbed Pinkimus Prime for $30 from Stanhope Kmart, and a Rhinox vs. Waspinator Robot Heroes pack for $7 from Uncle Pete's Blacktown.

Pinkimus is getting repainted, while his accessories go to an older Prime who could do with some hands!

btw kup... did that B'Boom come with any packaging or tech specs etc? Cos I wonder if there's any differences between B'Boom and Apache and whether or not you can tell them apart if you get them loose w/o packaging. I'd like to compare my Apache with your B'Boom some time. :)

Thanks Deceptic_Optics. :) Here's another one I purchased yesterday - great looking toy but even flimsier/cheaper feeling than most of the movie toys. Nearly broke the figure trying to get his front bumper down for bot mode and it must have taken the best part of 5 minutes to get his gun to stay seated in his hand without the stupid gimmick sending it flying out. Ratchet is in bot mode now and it is in this mode he shall stay. I'm afraid that if I even look at him the wrong way he'll crumble into a pile of dust.

I also noticed mistakes on the packaging/instructions for both NEST Lockdown and Ratchet - both toys are mistransformed in some way as the end result on the card back and instructions have subtle differences. Also note a total lack of instructions on how to transform Lockdown's hook arm.

Nice to see quality control is working overtime at Hasbro. :rolleyes:

The body of NEST Lockdown is certainly better than the Animated version but I still like the overall Animated design concept of the head better.

SharkyMcShark
15th February 2010, 03:49 AM
I've found the Movie version about 4 times better. Mainly because nothing is boken or loose out of the box (and I was stupid enough to buy 2 Animated Lockdowns because I quite liked the design, even after the first turned out to be a complete lemon). The hook really annoys me though. It's too rubbery.

Electro Static Soundwave early feb acquisition

Ooh Animated Soundblaster (wonder why they decided too call him Electrostatic SW). I love this repaint because like purple Shockwave it's justified as the character really does appear in the show looking like this. The inclusion of Ratbat just makes the deal even sweeter! Awesome buy, can't wait for mine to arrive in the post. :)

Last Stand of the Wreckers 2
Bumblebee 3
ROTF Scattorshot

May I just say that the scout class figures are a real draw for me. In fact it makes me wonder why they didn't do the TFA line in this scale (especially seeing as it ultimately was a filler line)

I know it sucks, $50 is on the expensive side, $35-40 would be an easier pill to swallow but they are popular and get snapped up quickly.

There are some ROTF earlier releases I planned on picking up in sales like Ironhide but where did they all go, the sales tend to have the same bunch of figures you might already have that are overstocked.. Leaders could be picked up much cheaper though and Devy seemed to go on sale quickly

I've not seen the original. Did the original have a zoom in? The only real difference is probably being able to access the ipod functions of the phone while playing.

Starscream212, those first set of Beast Wars figures look good but aren't Robot Heroes. I wouldn't mind finding a set of those myself now I've seen them.

They look very similar to the super deformed chibi figures that many lines of figures have (DBZ, Gundam, Ranma1/2, bleach etc)

Probably not. I tried scanning it but the price wouldn't come up. Went to customer service and they asked me to bring the price tag. The movie legends price tag wasnt there so i took the universe one instead which is cheaper. The price was about $4 but when they scanned the barcode, the price was revealed to be $2.89.

Like Vector Prime, I'm not quite sure what the situation is with Target as I only have access to the Glen Waverley one. It could either be an error in the system or on clearance. If it's on clearance, they must be very discrete about it.
