July Acquisitions

[GoktimusPrime]

5FDP: was that find your fate TF book ever released in Australia? Cos I used to read them heaps as a kid and I never saw that one. (mebbe I just missed it :/)

[liegeprime]

Picked up yesterday thanks to K-Mart (and a Target Catalogue for the sale price):

Ooooh so these are out now. cool:)

5FDP: was that find your fate TF book ever released in Australia? Cos I used to read them heaps as a kid and I never saw that one. (mebbe I just missed it :/)

Yes, it was released in Australia however there are some that were extremely difficult to find, especially the ones towards the end of the series. These are in higher demand for most collectors ala Marvel comic issues 57 through to 80 (Simon Furman era).

[JuzMel]

Colouring/Poster TF Book @ $4.99 from Big W and the rest from Target Sale. :D
@ $29, Remote Control R2-D2 was just a bargain!

Movie Blackout and Scorponok courtesy of Demonac and Kyle
Transformers ROTF on the Wii courtesy of Target sale

Some thoughts, albeit some are years late:

Piranacon: purty......

Blackout: nice helicopter and robot mode but I don't like the face. Bit disconcerting that the whole rotor assembly can detach. It's almost like kibble.

Scorponok: great alt mode, poor robot mode (you just stand him on his tail!?!!?)

ROTF Wii: much better than the first movie game. The camera's not so sensitive, your guns can actually damage opponents, it's two-player... the only downside is you can't transform whenever you want, unless you're doing a special attack.

[kup]

I think Movie Scorponok's robot mode was something they forced on an originally none transforming toy design.

I think Movie Scorponok's robot mode was something they forced on an originally none transforming toy design.

His bot mode reminds me a lot of G1 Fasttrack (G1 Scorponok's little buddy). :p

Heroes of Cybertron Ironhide

Nice. I've been meaning to pick that up. Out of interest, how long did it take to arrive? I recently used Book Depository for the first time and cannot wait for my massive haul of 'Green Lantern' books to arrive.

[i_amtrunks]

Nice. I've been meaning to pick that up. Out of interest, how long did it take to arrive? I recently used Book Depository for the first time and cannot wait for my massive haul of 'Green Lantern' books to arrive.

Mine took about 7 working days, other orders from them I've had have taken about the same time, the bigger the order, the slightly longer it takes to get them all (had an order of nearly 20 books that arrived five per day for nearly a week.)

Hrm, I've started feeling this. x2 yesterday, x1 last friday. The wait.

[griffin]

Recieved the Disney Label Buzz Lightyear toy last thursday... a really nice toy - highly recommended.

[i_amtrunks]

Thanks to Verno's Beast Sale I now have a Tigerhawk, Terrorsaur and Croc Megatron from the Beast Wars line, as well as a TM Cheetor for a cousin who has started collecting old toys he used to own.

They might as well have been fresh from their boxes/cards for the condition they are in! Thanks Verno! :D

[blackoptimus]

Waitt..... So how much ATM is ROTF Legends Devastator????? From Target?

Are they your pics as they are very nicely done.:cool:

[gamblor916]

Nice pics Thanatos. If they're yours I too would like to know how you did that.

[adds]

I bought Blackout and Scorponok off of Thanatos. The photography was my doing. So, thank you :)

[adds]

Nice pics Thanatos. If they're yours I too would like to know how you did that.

A quick explanation would be, by using a lightbox, two lights, black backdrop and a sheet of thin plastic sitting on a black surface (to get the reflection). Photos taken with a Canon DSLR and processed in Photoshop.

nice!, I really need to learn Photoshop. Ever since I installed it I havent used it , at all. Im more used to Print Artist:o but I don't have that program hehehe

That's excellent stuff there. I am planning project which requires photography and was unsure of how to get the effect you have accomplished in your pics. You have given me something to go from.

Man that is some high quality photography. Very nice.

[llamatron]

How do you avoid splashing flash light?

Don't use a flash ;)

You should be able to sufficiently light the toy using external bulbs (preferably through some kind of diffusion fabric sheet thing) to get a nice even light.

[autobreadticon]

wow thats the second repaint of nightbeat i have seen, or is it the other way around

[heroic_decepticon]

wow thats the second repaint of nightbeat i have seen, or is it the other way around

It's a repaint of Siren actually. Hard to say which is a repaint of which since both were released in 1988. The US got Siren, while Japan never got Siren but instead got Go-Shooter.

This here is the "repaint" of Nightbeat - Minerva (http://heroicdecepticon.blogspot.com/2010/07/c-303-my-goddess-minerva.html) (or as some would have it, Minelba), one of the very rare and hard to find G1 pieces.

To see someone actually get it makes the release of Device Label Blaster feel real.

It's been delayed so many times that even when I got the shipment notice from RK, I still didn't believe it :)

Where'd you find the MP Skywarp? Just curious because we were talking about his sighting in NSW in another topic.

EDIT: I think I noticed the answer - a Walmart sticker. So, you imported it?

Ebay seller from NSW, he actually posted 2 MP Skywarp. I bid on one and no one bid on the other one.

Mr Toys Toyworld have them in stock in Brisbane. I was trying to get the MP Starscream but no branch had them in stock. :(

FAROUT! that looks awesome! WHERE IS MINE!!!!!!!!!!! its been so loooooooooooooooooooooooooong! :(

[griffin]

Picked up a package at the post office this morning, and didn't know what it was.
When I got home, it had the exclusive Prowl and Dreadwing/Darkwing toys (http://www.robotkingdom.com/services/eshop/main.php?action=details&CatType=Category&II=TFTS2010WPBMS&lang=us&CatID=41)that I had forgotten that I had even ordered... :rolleyes:

I love the look of the Dreadwing pair. The colour is so vibrant. And they have the Gen2 logo painted on them. A nice homage to Gen2 original toys - something that BotCon failed to do with none of their toys homaging Gen2 original toys.

It's a nice coincedence to have TWO Gen2 homages this year from two unrelated sources. For such an uninspiring and unpopular series, this was a surprise.

An unrelated surprise...
I found this on ebay while (http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=200500454266&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT)looking for something else. Threw in a small bid, without expecting to win it, but was the only bidder. :D
They all appear to be Takara Micromasters, but the four-packs appear to be ones that weren't redecoed though (will still check them over to see if they are worth keeping). The real prize to me was the storage trailers, and the Original Sixwing. I'm not fussed about missing their parts either, as I have 2 of the 3 reissues (all 4 were different colours), and these would be displayed individually anyway.
Can't wait for them to arrive.

Great catch, Griffin. One of the other notable Micromasters there is Shotbomber (the white one with the two missiles on its back) from Sky Garry. Very cool!

[griffin]

Since I got Skygarry already, Shotbomber will be sold off, along with any others I don't want. It might even make cover the cost of the ones I keep.

But looking in Generations book, the storage trailers are a necessary componant for the base modes of Micromasters, and Skygarry's shuttle mode. And now I have some, it makes Skygarry feel complete. :)

I had a look into it, apparently Henkei Sideswipe is not meant to come with the jetpack. It's not even seen on the packaging and is confirmed so at tfwiki. Ah well, at least now I have both Sideswipe and Sunstreaker! Woohoo! Yeah!

Now time to get Universe Prowl, Silverstreak and Smokescreen!

A HUGE thanks to 1AZRAEL1 for holding on to this bloke for almost a year for me and allowing me to pay it off over time.
Scorponok is truly a big and cool figure and though Zarak's arm had been unfortunately broken off (glued back on tonight :p) and missing some bits and pieces, He is in great condition and I love him all the same. :D

[GoktimusPrime]

I'm glad you've gotten a lot this month, cos July's kinda slow for me. Ah well, gives my wallet a break. :p But I actually got stuff today -- #5 of Nefarious and General Grievous/Starfighter for half price at TRU's sale! :D

Much like Hun-grrr, Snap Trap's head does turn. :)

[PascTF]

:eek: So love to see Yoda on this board :D

I feel he's the best SWTF released in a long, long time. Probably my favorite since the Snowspeeder!

[griffin]

Much like Hun-grrr, Snap Trap's head does turn. :)

I wonder if it is something they did for the reissue, because my original Snaptrap has a fixed head, and the Club Seacons Snaptrap head would only move with a lot of force while the Piranacon head was attached (and still only moves 90degrees to its left. (I don't have the BW Seacons to check though)
Does anyone with an original Snaptrap, have a moving head, in case mine are just stiff from age?

[PascTF]

Tell you what, I haven't checked if it could turn to the right... I'll let you know later.

EDIT: Later is already now and indeed, it only turns to the left with a lot of force. :)

[GoktimusPrime]

Much like Hun-grrr, Snap Trap's head does turn. :)
My original G1 Snaptrap's head doesn't turn (either that or it's super-tight).

I'll have to check mine when I get home, never thought to try it before.

Also, I got a couple of things yesterday and I'll post them up later tonight.

[snaketales]

mine too. anything from Canada takes a long long long time...

Guess I must have been lucky. I haven't had any problems with Canadian sellers, either in terms of delivery time or non-arrival. I've bought comics and toys from there with no hassles.
Of course, now I have jinxed it :rolleyes:

love Defensor. I remember how I disliked him when I was young cos he's so weak and 'useless'. Now Defensor is one of my fav combiners. The proportions are just so.... right.

[1AZRAEL1]

And he comes with 2 guns :D

What I like as well, is the fact that the head is already attached to the main body, you just have to swivel it around. Unlike most G1 combiners where you just use a helmet to mask their inferior and small heads :p

[liegeprime]

My original G1 Snaptrap's head doesn't turn (either that or it's super-tight).

MIne too, Im too reluctant/scared to try to force it if it turns :o:o
