Picked up from the post office today, Euro Boss, Euro Talon, Euro Skydive. Unfortunately, due to a postage mix-up by one an ebay seller, I didn't get Euro Flash in the other box I got at the PO - which would have completed my Turbomasters/Predators (1992 Euro) collection. Ah well, that'll arrive early next year (have to swap the toys over at seller's expense of course, and the seller is in Canada...).
Also got in the mail, Gen2 Snarl (red version), leaving me waiting on the green one still in transit. If it gets to me within a week, I would just be one short of my 2008 objective (completing Gen2).
But the good thing has been the near-completion of my Euro TFs collection, just from looking out for the missing Gen2 figures. Doing certain in-depth searches has turned up quite a few Euro TFs, which I wasn't going to focus on until next year. Now I only have 3 to go (Clench, Ironfist, Deluge), and Flash is currently somewhere in Canada.
So my 2009 objective of completing my Euro collection should be quite easy to do now. I may have to look at another TFs collecting goal instead. :p
And a final item for today (at this time), is 2-pack Jetfire & Jetstorm from Kmart for $37.
Tomorrow I gotta find a 25th Oppy at a Myer before their sale ends...
Lubbly jubbly indeed! Very glad to hear Cyclonus doesn't sport that most foul PVC grey. Hope to see some of this stuff here in January as well as the new Dinobot (I can hope)!Quote:

Got the MTMTE Profile Book #2 and Alliance Prequel issue #1. I'm willing to give this a cahnce even though it is movie related.
Still need Max Dino's though.
More like Competition Taekwondo. Karate's not silly enough to expose their groin like that... not traditional Karate anyway. ;)Quote:

Actually it is the PVC grey but not the one with the swirly pattern or a very opaque finish. It's the one with the tiny glitter bits to give it a slight metallic look, which doesn't really work all too well.Quote:

Just got back from my first ever pre-dawn shopping experiance, with the all-night trading of Westfield Chermside (33 hours non-stop for most stores). Did any other shopping centres in other cities do this (the 24 hour Kmarts don't count)? Chermside did it last year as well, and I only remembered at work when it was mentioned on the news. It was a last minute decision to go (Chermside is the other side of the city, so takes about half an hour with no traffic at night), but glad I did. And if I remember next year, I'll see if anyone else here wants to do a meetup and pre-dawn toy hunt.
I got there a couple hours after work (2am) and shopped until dawn (4.30am). The place is certainly a lot bigger than the last time I was there (recent expansion puts it at the 9th largest shopping centre in Australia, apparently).
With six of the seven major-chain toy sources in this country in the one location (BigW, Kmart, Toyworld, Myer, David Jones, Target, plus Coles and Woolworths for small toys), they just need a TRU to move in and it would be a one-stop toy hunting ground. There wouldn't be too many shopping centres in this country that have that sort of toy convenience.
Anyway, after almost 3 hours and $350 later, I didn't do too bad for a pre-dawn Christmas-eve toy run - I managed to get all but 2 items I was looking for.
From Myer, I got a 25th Optimus for $80 (one back corner is a little dented, but is one of the 'best' I've seen so far - darn kids...), plus the TFs Risk game for $25 (the cashier thought it was an error because the price sticker said $70, but I assured her that it was in the catalogue. It completes my set of 3 Movie board games).
Then from Kmart, I found the last Special Edition Drag Strip. There was one Megatron there as well, but none of the other two, which means I'll have to go back to Kmart Sunnybank to get one of the Oppys I saw there yesterday. Also bought some movies for me, and someone else for christmas.
Didn't find anything in Target or BigW (most of the stores were pretty bare of TFs), and David Jones wasn't open for the all-night trading.
Went off to Woolworths to look for the 3 single packed Animated Legends, and found that they were still on sale for $6. Unfortunately, they only had Op and BBee, so I'll have to get Prowl later elsewhere.
Checked out Jayjays, who were in the process of unpacking some new stock, including TFs tshirts (one I hadn't seen there before either). They also had a nice shiny purple Decepticon symbol on a black tshirt in the store for $20, which I almost bought.
Stopped in at JB Hifii on my way back out, and ended up buying several DVDs...
No piccies, as there wasn't anything special. And I'm tired, so need to get some sleep now. Have to make sure I finish up the '12th day of Christmas' photo when I get up later too, or else I'll be in trouble... :p
Stuff from the last week :D

Botcon Bugbite already had a hard time trying to be rid of his Gobot image and will have nothing of this:

I have been wanting this toy for a long time and I am so glad that he arrived just before Christmas!
Picked up Legends Class Jazz and Hound. On a side note Target East Vic Park has 0 TF's IN THE WHOLE STORE :eek: The whole TF Rack was stripped bare, never seen a TF aisle like it.
Where'd you get im kup? Is it just him or you got the whole set of E-hobby bots?Quote:

Bugbite was among them
It was September 2007. The same seller had a whole bunch of Classics both Kup & I had... which we sold off here for cheap ($10 deluxes, $20 megas).
Received Activators Bulkhead from JuzMel as Christmas pressie today at her party!!
Thank you...along with it came I think a junker Goldbug...
She'll be getting a new Universe Powerglide too due to an unforeseen accident.
If anyone does see one locally here, please just buy it for me with or without sale price. Thanks...
heh. heh.
Did you guys catch the little note at the end of the post taht I put in white? :b
Cool. I received in the mail yesterday every other Throttlebot bar Goldbug from ebay seller, soccerfreakjlo. Pics later.Quote:
