'HFTD' Terradive from Kmart

I prefer to call him DHTF Terradive standing for 'Damn Hard to Find'. Glad to hear he's showing up in places other than Target, there's still hope of finding one yet!

Finally found Headstrong's gun stand/Predaking left foot. It was the only one I could never find on Ebay, which stopped me from getting all the other bits I need for Predaking.

Now that I have it, the floodgates have opened (BTW if anyone has Predaking fists or right foot for sale, let me know! :D)

I was a Parramatta today and there are Terradives, lots and lots of them, at TRU, KMart and Target. Saw 1 lone Generations Drift for $30, but cbf-ed to get it at that price.

Some acquisitions...

All the Hard Hero busts from fatbot (thanks mate for dropping them at Town Hall and often times helping me to cart them to my apartment!)
All G1 boxes from gamblor916 (thanks man!)
All the MOTU NECA statues from Sharky (thanks mate for dropping them into the city)
Darkmount Straxus courtesy of fatbot who helped my purchase it (none to be found in the city stores)
Silent Bob MOSC exclusive figure (signed by Kevin Smith) was a farewell gift from fatbot (you the man!)

sorry man, it just happened. it was very spontaneous :p

You do know however, that I would be stopping over in Singapore (ie: the storehouse of 70% of my Series 1 to 3 pieces with multiple multiples, etc), and time permitting I will try to dig around and fix you up with stuff you need. Send me a list if you are interested. If I do find anything you want, it will be shipped from SG by my mum, so just bear in mind that shipping might cost slightly more. :D

Thanks for the offer HD :) I'd love to know if you have any spare G1 boxes / cardbacks in storage. I'll pretty much take whatever you want to part with pending prices.

Wish I had a storehouse :cool:

About A$355. I did well by ordering that all together along with the strong AUD.

I fear that with Shadow Scyther on the horizon, US$400 is the new floor. Shattered Glass Rodimus is even worse.

The other TFCon is for LCZ128.

That price is insane I'm glad its not something I desperately want. I remember ebay seller bodhar offering it for $140 when it was first released and decided to put it off until I found a better price:(

jaydisc
6th October 2010, 10:47 PM
It is. I helped justify it by averaging its cost against the first one I got at release time for about A$130, meaning I paid about A$240 each.

This is actually from September. Have had the car for 3 weeks now but yesterday was the first time I've driven it. :o

My parents recently sold their old house and decided to use part of the money to help pay for my sister's mortgage and a new car for me. :cool: I will never be able to afford a Camaro so went for the next best thing, a yellow Suzuki Swift.

I have a manual licence but didn't use to own a car and haven't driven for many many years. Been relying on public transports and lifts from friends. So when we went to the car dealer to pick up the car I let my sister drive it home for me. I was hoping the car dealer didn't see that but he did... :o

http://i234.photobucket.com/albums/ee16/Kyle_Chow/Kyles%20BUMBL3BEE/BUMBL3BEE_2.jpg

The secretaries at uni suggested that I should apply for a custom plate myself for birthday, so we went to a licencing centre to enquire. Of course, good combinations such as "BUMBLEBEE", "BUMBLBEE", "BMBLEBEE", "BMBLBEE", "BUMBLEB" etc were all already taken. Then my sister suggested using the number "3" as a substitue for "E". Now my final plate is "BUMBL3BEE".

Thank you 1orion2many, for thinking that a bright yellow car is "too happy" and bought me a George Michael CD as a present for the new car. I will have my revenge soon, very soon...

(Actually, all the people who don't know about Transformers have all questioned my taste in colour and now give me funny looks... :o)

Congrats Kyle, the Swift is an awesome small car, been trying to talk my missus into buying one for a couple of months now, and they look good in yellow (it suits it, just like the new dark green suits the new commodores).

And I hope you blast out that George Michael CD from the car, that should get you some awesome looks from pedestrians! :p

I agree with that. Swifts are great cars. I managed to convince my sister to buy one (translate have Mum and Dad buy her one) Just a pain in the arse to work on... You need real small hands.

Who cares about other's who think it's an odd colour! Love it! I would drive one anyday. Once saw one that had the 2 black strips in the centre.

I also have a Bumblebee stuck on my dashboard with blue tag - Animated Activator Bumblebee. But do note due to sun and atmosphere exposure, the joints do get loose over time. I used to also have G1 bumblebee stuck on the dash board, but the tyres melted!

My first acquisition for the month of October - 37 Transformer Marvel UK comics (issues 182, 183, 184, 185, 187, 241, 242, 243, 244, 245, 246, 248, 249, 250, 251, 253, 254, 256, 257, 258, 259, 260, 261, 262, 263, 264, 267, 268, 270, 271, 272, 273, 274, 275, 276, 278 and 279). These were all purchased from Sydney based eBay seller nb1872. It was probably the smoothest transaction I have ever experienced.

http://img199.imageshack.us/img199/8500/dsc04960z.jpg

Unfortunately I still don't have the posters that came with issues 320 - 322 therefore if anyone has them and is willing to help me out, I'd be forever grateful :) We could even arrange for a trade if you are missing any of the above issues.

@ Kyle - Congrats on the new wheels mate.

Love it. Quite comfortable inside. It's easy to turn corners and park.

The "Pine" flavour smell from the air-freshener is kinda strange and not for everybody... :p

I worried about yellowing of the plastic... but then I figured the toys themselves are already yellow... :p

Thanks for the note about melting tyres. I might get some sort of sun shade to cover the dash when parking under the sun.

I can attest to the melting tyres... I had a Cliffjumper keychain reissue which I left inside my glove compartment during summer and all the tyres melted!

Yellow will still fade btw. So after a while the yellow might end up looking like the yellow on this punch buggy...
http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y227/goktimusprime/Malaysia/th_tf_punchbuggy.jpg

And plastic melts too. dirge had a clear WARS Spychanger which he had on the dashboard of his old car... and that thing ended up melting (much to dirge's amusement ;)).

-Picture requested by Autocon-

Foam around all the sides and newspaper to cushion the insides.

What I bought

Takara Transformers Animated - Optimus Prime & Rodimus Clear Version
-Love the crystal which makes me want to get henkei rodimus in crystal too but I dont like that mold of optimus...
-Animated Optimus is pretty simple but looks really good. Rodimus is terrible to pose. I really dont like the limited articulation of his shoulders and elbows and his legs are just annoying. His robot mode does look really good though and reminds me of marvels hawkeye, but annoyed his arm cant reach around his chest.

Hasbro Transformers ROTF Master of Metallikato - Whirl Vs. Bludgeon Box Set
-I like bludgeon the most of this set. a really good mold and redeco of Wreckage. Whirl has the same issues with transforming the cockpit. Looking forward to headrobots upgrade set.

Transformers Music Label Black Soundwave (SoundBlaster) MP3 Player
After reading people's thoughts on what the best 'Classics Soundwave' is, decided to finally get this. i really like the design but this definately does not feel like a toy as it seems too fragile. I really like to play with my Transformers :)

TFC EX-002B Shadow Rollar
Horrible build quality. Rollar is just super floppy and his wheels are too big and just get in the way of everything. the legs on the one i have keep falling off from slight play.

I will take photos when I can find my camera as i've been using a phone camera for a while now :/

And plastic melts too. dirge had a clear WARS Spychanger which he had on the dashboard of his old car... and that thing ended up melting (much to dirge's amusement ;)).

Nah, he didn't melt - the shoulders loosened though, as the plastic broke down in the joints.

http://img268.imageshack.us/img268/7494/p8290433.jpg

Black chase Landcross is a looong-standing holy grail that I've finally completed. Multiforce is the most underrated gestalt team in Transformers history. So many others get all the love, but here is a team that can transform into thirty-seven different robots of three varying scales. He's a bombful of shrapnel.

It is indeed an awesome toy. He's my equal favourite of the pre-Transmetal Megas alongside Inferno. :) Ya know, I didn't discover the rub sign on that toy until over a month after I got it! That's gotta be one of the most obscure insignia locations on a TF toy ever!

I did notice the rubsign was there and 'revealed the shield', but I also thought it was a bizarrely hidden place for it to be. I love almost all of those early Beast Wars Mega moulds. Polar Claw, Scorponok and Inferno are great toys with fun gimmicks.

Cybertron Metroplex minus his shovel, but I can't bitch at $10 :p:p

My only disappointment was with the classic sideswipe.his legs seem to of been put on backwards when he was made because the only way to fix his legs was to unscrew his upper thighs and switch them around. not sure if anybody else had this problem.

Those look awesome Rampagesss, your customs should feel right at home next to these guys and I'd personally say that looking at these - Your customs look to be on par with the production quality of these guys. :D

Whilst they're considerably obscure colour schemes, I don't why they just seem really cool, congrats man. :)

Brave Series (1996) Grandus retool. Very interesting retool with enough molding differences to make this something I wanted to pick up for the really low price of HKD$350 (ie: less than AUD$50)... compared to the price of Grandus which is in the range of AUD$600 and above. Dirge might like to review this. :D

Hmmm... I didn't know he's now an official Transformer. That's pretty interesting. The main reason I bought him was so I can have another Grandus like base-bot. Very glad that the retool in terms of head sculpt, hands and accessories are sufficiently different from Grandus to be worthwhile getting this toy. It's released in 1996, so I have no idea how much its actually worth.

I still need a henkei ironhide IMO they are rarer and pricey these days..I got the classics version but it just nags me to no end and out of place with the rest of henkeis. And after I saw your post I have to get one. :(=

Don't suppose there are abundance of them in hk for similar price? A friend is going back at xmas/new years and I would love to get one.

Mirage is about the price I paid for it a few months ago, except no shipping..

Yeah - pretty cool huh? He can look more toy-accurate with the red-visor helmet and more cartoon-like without it. :) In Henkei continuity, the helmet is a control mask which Starscream uses to try and force Skyfire to fight for the Decepticons. Skyfire eventually breaks free of the helmet's control and joins the Autobots. ;)

He can look more toy-accurate with the red-visor helmet and more cartoon-like without it. :) In Henkei continuity, the helmet is a control mask which Starscream uses to try and force Skyfire to fight for the Decepticons. Skyfire eventually breaks free of the helmet's control and joins the Autobots. ;)

Too right it's pretty cool! :D
Ha! See, that's cool how they've explained the helmet :cool:, I've always admired the insane attention to detail the Japanese Culture has displayed throughout her life - That's why Japan is apart of my Top 3 Cultures of all time. ;):D


Today's acquisitions are courtesy of Canofwhoopass_87:

G1 Autobot Minibot Swerve
G1 Decepticon Frenzy/Rumble - Pair of Guns
G1 Decepticon Blitzwing - Swords
G1 Autobot Jetfire - Armour Clips
G1 Techspecs - Megatron, Battletrap, Flywheels & Wreckgar
Beast Wars 1st Wave Comic/Catalogue

A Big Thanks goes out to Whoopy for this lot as it brings me that little bit closer to completing my G1 figures. ;):D
I'm so glad to finally acquire Swerve as he has alluded me on eBay so many times, being outbid at the last minute :mad:, and I'm over the moon with the Beast Wars Comic/Catalogue due to it being so cool on so many levels - it's a little bit of Beast Wars History. :D:D:D

*** Another day, another Henkei ***

Was at the client's office today. The office happens to be near Wan Chai 188 Shopping Centre and so I went there for a wander after work.

Lo and behold, another Henkei aquisition. This time its Skyfire MISB for HKD$260.

Today I finally picked up ROTF Supreme Devastator, it's been just a year since I started collecting TFs (and I started with ROTF Leader Prime) and now I have completed my ROTF collection. That feeling of collecting all of a line is damn fulfilling! Till all are one!!

Prices are good because of the strong Aussie, but now I'm here, I start converting back to SG dollars when I spend and the prices are ok, but could be better.

I got pretty lucky with the Henkei stuff because there really isn't much of them left here, but i still manage to find some...:D

Interestingly, Terradive was just slapped together with sticky tape, thus I can remove him perfectly without destroying the card. Anyone else found one like this?

I'm very pleased. My awesome boyfriend bought me HftD Leader Class Starscream and RotF Leader Class Jetfire just yesterday. :D

So envious here Haphazard, I really want a Leader Class Starscream but there are just too many Higher Priority items that are in line for me :(, congrats though as he's the best representation yet IMO. :D

My acquisition today is the first and last figure that I'll ever purchase of this line, as the character, in my view, is the only one worth owning. ;):D

Transformers: Animated (Deluxe Class) Decepticon Soundwave with Laserbeak - courtesy of eBay AU.

http://i1032.photobucket.com/albums/a409/Darkone666au/OCT27ACQ-2.jpg

I'm really diggin' this figure, for an Animated figure it invokes the essences of Soundwave really well and I dig Laserbeak as a Guitar as it's a really intuitive and creative adaptation of the character and his relationship to Soundwave. :D
I must agree with Dirge's Review (http://www.cliffbee.com/reviews/animsoundwave.php) though, as his hands leave a lot to be desired, though the well placed use of peg holes sort of 'Band-Aids' the issue. ;):)

It is a very good book if you like TF art of the kind in the later sections of TF: Generations. I might add that stores in Japan sell that book for AU$56-60 if you buy there and then. For AU$30, it'd be very worth it if you can press shipping down some.
