Cheers, so much to learn. I hope all this Transformer knowledge isn't pushing essential knowledge out of my brain. :)

Non-Transformers knowledge isn't essential. :p :p

Regardless, awesome score. I really love this Devastator, as a whole, not as separate pieces. His just a nice giant robot, dog, thing.

Heh, pigeon toed Slam Dance. :p

Received a Tomica Bumblebee bus yesterday as a gift from some friends who just got back from Japan. Today I picked up my comic books -- kinda ironic that I picked up MTMTE #13 which has Ultra Magnus on the cover and arguably one of Ultra Magnus' finest moments in the story a day after the anniversary of Robert Stack's birth.

Been a bit lazy so this would be last 2 months

- The FOC art book is amazing
- Picked up Astro Magnum at trash & treasure for $6
- Love my new MPs
- FOC Sideswipe is a massive let down

Great start to the year Sharky, those two MPs are great!

My year started with a little cyberverse, souvenirs from my brief trip to the ACT and surrounds

http://i781.photobucket.com/albums/y...t/IMAG0360.jpg

then picked up my (MISB) layby from Toyzone Boronia :D:D:D

http://i781.photobucket.com/albums/y...t/IMAG0361.jpg

And with Unicron's head!! :D

Yeah, that was standard in Australia. They were apparently rare in North America, but here it was the other way around. I don't think I ever saw a Primus here that didn't come with a Unicron head. :) For whatever reason I think Hasbro ended up shipping most of the Unicron headed Primi down under (which might explain why they ended up being rare in other countries). Understandably frustrating for the Yanks (and Canucks), but win for us! :D

I never even saw any Primus' here! (then again I was small so probably on the top shelf or something.)

Yup I just opened him up, dont know if i should apply the stickers or not.

I can obviously only speak for myself, but I was disappointed after applying the stickers to my reissue Skylynx. I just didn't think it enhanced any of the modes and if I had my time again I'd keep the decals unapplied.

You were disappointed only after you applied stickers to Sky Lynx ;) :p
16th January 2013, 08:53 AM
Ultra Mackness

Yeah..I think I was distracted by the blindingly minty whiteness of the shuttle component - I was pretty sure that plastic that white couldn't be recreated and only existed back in the 80s. Of course that means that my reissue lives in his box frightenned of what UV light will do to him :)
16th January 2013, 11:00 AM

Thanks for the heads up, i might leave the stickers unapplied.
16th January 2013, 11:18 AM

I think the toy looks bland without stickers myself. :/ Maybe use reprolabels? That way you can remove them later if you change your mind (you can use stuff like rubbing alcohol to remove residue) and still leave the original stickers in tact.
16th January 2013, 02:40 PM
Bidoofdude

I have no idea what the stickers look like on this guy. :confused::o
What do the stickers add, if I may ask. :D
It really depends on whether you yourself think it would improve the figure, as well as if you plan on reselling it in the future or keeping it all unused to keep value, such as you do with your MPs.
Do whatever you feel is right and if it will make it any better for you.:D

received this today from BBTS which makes up for not getting it when i got Sideswipe, plus a few more microns for my prime collection. OH and some reprolabels :D:D
