are you planning on opening it? If so can you post pics, Im just curious what's the difference with the Takara version that they have to sell it in such a huge box (and pricier)... what else comes with it?Quote:

dirge has posted pics of his opened HAS MP Prowl on the NSW Sightings thread :)
thanks, saw that but I was more after a pic while he's in his plastic casing in packaging as in right out of the box..., just to see how much air Hasbro's selling us this time :p. BUt as dirge already said there was nothing else in it just the rifle and it's in robot mode, I think I have a good idea now. cheers.Quote:

Is it just me or do's the G1 Soundwave look just a little scared
Interesting that the prizes on offer include Devestators [sic] since as far I knew the gift set was never available here?Quote:

It's the capitalisation of the "C" in Commanders that makes me think it's the case.Quote:

It isn't easy getting hold of those full-size displays, as it took a lot of effort for me to get the one from two years ago (giant Optimus truck), but failed to get the one last year that I wanted (it was a Spiderman display, but had a really nice City diorama).
Getting it home would have been tough too.
A VERY interesting artefact there.Quote:

I read it like that at first too, but its "a share of" the prize. The $1000 worth of toys got split between 10 major winners and 50 minor winners. I'm still curious about the Devestators, an odd word to use and capitalise if you don't mean Devastator.
Or "devestation" as the case may be. :p ;)Quote:

July stuff. Sudden burst of extra income made me spent more than usual. The Evolution 2-pack dinobots were scanning at $24.99. I thought they were $39.99. So picked them up.

Masterpiece Prowl, Gen Blitzwing (need Springer), Rescue Dinobots legends? (Which are awesome by the way) and a few Kreo combiners.
Thanks mateQuote:

It was a lot of work to get it home as they are put together surprisingly well, and I broke a shelf off when I tried to take the first display case apart. So I just end up taking Grimlock's head and the non-broken shelf home. My van was very full.
AoE Bumblebee.
$17 delivered from Amazon.
Mainly for the alt mode :o

I'm feeling jealous of the people picking up MP Prowl, I hate not having a TRU nearby.
BUT I did get this guy in the mail today!

Wandered into the Reject Shop to buy some packing containers and came across this guy! It's what I miss about doing my shopping in stores instead of online, the surprise of coming across a TF you never even knew existed! :D
http://i1294.photobucket.com/albums/...ps8f5c0a1b.jpg
Never even seen a pic or heard of him online before so was well chuffed :)
Got these 2 from Zippo and a classified site. Very happy with them, I really dig this mould. Its also nice to have a few Decepticon cars.

Nice man ...i just notice that the figure on the box is a Version 1(hip kibble) of the seeker mold :confused:... did you open him yet.?... is it v1 or the new one?..Quote:

Yes it is the new mould, not the V1. And no they have not put anything new in with him, just the same stuff. But looks good with the other MP's.Quote:

Thanks to M-Bot for DTOM Wheeljack (not Que) :p it even came with this cool drawing on the packaging. Shame I have to rip it off:D
From Kmart the rescue bots - wish the made more this small.
