Does any one know why the Takara Telemocha release of Gimlet made him a Predacon? Is that their excuse for not releasing all of the Jointron brothers? (Oh and FYI Telemocha Gimlet doesn't come with the regular Gimlet's weapon which is for Tripledacus anyway).

The Arrival series seems to run parralell. The First one is a little similar, but generally, most of the issues are side stories to the cartoon. SOme of them fit between eps of the show. #5 Is definatley not in the show and is a geat way to read about Swindle. Very funny!

Don't worry. In most cases they will get their karma

Well Tets, you can always use vinegar/baking soda cleaner for the figures but Im afraid you just have to air out the case and the disc.

1 cup vinegar + 2 cups warm water + a scoop of baking soda. Just a thorough clean and 2-3 minutes soak then wash it off with warm water. pat dry else the rust sets in. hope it helps. cheers

Looks like Hoist's wing piece there to my feeble eyes roller. In fact I am sure of it.

Quick! Anyone know how much the animated leader class ultra magnus' are going for at kmart BEFORE the 20% off sale? Is it $79?

Also, NZ to AU...does this count as cross border payment or domestic over paypal? I'm not sure if the asia region is classified as domestic
