Found him in my local Big W much to my most pleasant surprise!!

This pose is inspired by the HC Matrix Quest art as seen in last month's acquisition by Hursticon....

Cool pic :)

I picked up a Thunderwing from Big W too but it's staying in the box until I decide if I want the United version instead.

Got Thunderwing, thanks to liegeprime for the assist. :)

Thanks Paulbot. My only gripe with the figure is that its freakkin short!:p Almost wasn't up to Starscream's height in bot mode:(

Awesome photo liege :cool: Very reminiscent of the original artwork...

Sorry, ran two separate purchases together. :o

Banzaitron was from my local Toyworld.

Today I procured the Last Stand of the Wreckers tpb from Target. I think there was a special on it because the scanner said "$14 now $10.64".

I could get used to Target's tpb prices :D

Finally arrived!
Botcon Topspin...
My Nexus Prime is finally complete! Will open and combine them when I get the time..

However, still no Blurr, Dirge, Skullgrin or Thunderwing... I must be the saddest person in Sydney.. :(

In the last few days I managed to snag myself a Blurr and Dirge. Pics to follow, when my camera is charged once more.

Dirge: Kmart North Rocks (Blurr was already gone - only had the one Dirge)
Blurr: Kmart Hornsby (Had 3 Blurrs and 3 Dirges - I picked up the only one with no noticable paintwork issues)

Don't know why I can't edit that last post :confused:, but here's the same pics uploaded..

It's been a busy few months for me. After quite a sabbatical from transformers collecting, in the last 2 months I've picked up.

Generations Darkmount
Generations Blurr
Generations Thunderwing
Generations Skullgrin
Generations WFC Megatron
Generations WFC Soundwave
AA Sea Spray
AA Hailstorm
AA Tomahawk
AA Terradive
AA Axor

Been good times :D

Today I picked up a WST Fort Max.
At least now I can say that I own the mold, haha.

Bloody Hell Heroic, nice haul man! :D
I thought your acquisitions had been a little bit quiet as of late, evidently quite busy mate. ;):)
What were the Vinyls for? just advertising? at any rate they're certainly interesting pieces of memorabilia. :cool:

should have a thread just for promotional catalogues etc pictures. would be interesting to look over all the vintage stuff

LUGIMUS PRIME: Hi bird!

GARBOIL: I gather you're in charge. Name?

LUGIMUS PRIME: Um... I don't remember.

GARBOIL: You don't remember your name?

LUGIMUS PRIME: I was only just introduced! Nutimus Prime, maybe... or was that the just name that Sharky liked...

LUGIMUS PRIME NUTIMUS PRIME: Or was it Lug Convoy...

NUTIMUS PRIME LUG CONVOY: Nut Convoy? I think that's it.

LUG CONVOY NUT CONVOY: Hey - if you're a bird, why do you need a helicopter?

GARBOIL: I'll ask the questions here. Are... they eating a whale?

NUT CONVOY: Technically I think it's a dolphin.

GARBOIL: They'd better not get dolphin blood all over my crime scene.

NUT CONVOY: Crime scene?

GARBOIL: You have a dead body behind you.

NUT CONVOY: Oh. Right. Transformers die all the time but I've never seen the police get involved.

GARBOIL: We're always involved, the comics and cartoons just focus on the deaths, they never show what happens afterwards. Apparently our work's too boring. Lots of paperwork. So... the body seems to have been stabbed twice in the chest by a sharp object. Shouldn't be too hard to find the murder weapon.

Skyshadow, I think you'll be proud of me for this one. :p I decided having one TFA Lugnut just wasn't enough! Here is his holiness, still encased in his shiny plastic prison. :D

As Tom Cruise so famously said in Magnolia "Respect the *cough* Lugnut!"

Picked this up from DD over the weekend:
