It's actually a very cool mold and it displays very well with your Classics/Universe figures.
And for me, arriving in today's mail, Alternity Silver Convoy - now my collection of Alternity is complete with one of each release. :D

It is clear as to which item I aimed for but the Gobot stuff isn't bad. I never owned the show Gobot characters when I was a kid and that is my first Rock lord ever!

MEGAZARAK: Hello Garboil. Who's your friend with the bling?
GARBOIL: Detective Sergeant Garboil to you, Zarak. This is... <sigh>... Nut Convoy - he's helping me with an investigation.
MEGAZARAK: A Convoy, eh? Better watch your back, Convoys don't live too long around these parts.
GARBOIL: Is that a threat?
NUT CONVOY: I think it's a statistic...
GARBOIL: Quiet, Nutcase. Killed any Convoys recently, Zarak? Those are some sharp weapons you have there. Sharp enough to stab a bot. To death. Twice.
MEGAZARAK: Sharp wea... You mean my knife and fork?
GARBOIL: You call them knife and fork. I call them Exhibit A and Exhibit B.
MEGAZARAK: I'm a tank, Detective Sergeant. Do you seriously think that if I wanted Flash dead I would stab him with my cutlery?
GARBOIL: Maybe you wanted to throw me off the scent.
MEGAZARAK: I couldn't even throw you far enough to get you on the scent.
GARBOIL: Then you... Are you eating a polar bear?
NUT CONVOY: Polurkey.
GARBOIL: Po... what?
NUT CONVOY: It's a polurkey. A polar bear genetically crossed with a turkey. It's a delicacy.
GARBOIL: Does nobody eat anything normal around here? Well if it wasn't you, Zarak, who was it?
MEGAZARAK: If I were you, I'd question Sky Shadow's next acquisition.
GARBOIL: You'd what?
MEGAZARAK: Well it seems obvious to me that you're going to spend the next few episodes showcasing Sky Shadow's new toys. Today I'm wearing the Air Military X-Dimension Micron team, tomorrow it'll probably be some other needlessly obscure recolour, so you might as well just go with the flow.
GARBOIL: <sigh> Fine. Don't leave town. Let's go, Nutsack.
NUT CONVOY: Nut Convoy.
GARBOIL: Whatever.
Bargain of my year? Purchased Transformers The Movie on BluRay for $10.40 at JB Hifi tonight during their 20% off sale. The stickered price was higher but it scanned it at just $13.
They're having a Family and Friends night where every DVD and CD is 20% off cost price, yes the cost price not the marked price! :DQuote:

I know I'm gonna cop a bit for this acquisition but... meh :rolleyes: Bought an AFA case for my Megatron box which I purchased from 1AZRAEL1 last month. I figured the thing has survived for almost 30 years; this gives it the best chance to last another 30 :D

now i dont want to see another aquisition from you young man until that hole in the foam has been filled....:P
in all seriousness.. that was a wonderful looking box, now atleast it will stay that way... how much did the case cost if you dont mind me asking???
Yeah, I know. I'm sick and need help :oQuote:

The case was bought from AFA's eBay store and cost approx. $50. Shipping was about the same. Their obviously custom made to fit and they come in the following styles - '84 Autobot cars, '84 Decepticon jets, '84 Prime, and '84 Megatron. They also have cases for combiners e.g. Constructicons, however these are a very poor fit and the cards will slide around inside.
**Word of warning** - if you (or anyone) are thinking of buying one, its best that the flap of the box is as straight as possible. If it isn't, it's near impossible to make it fit as there is an internal 'holder' which the flap has to sit under and you wouldn't be able to stick your hand in there to maneuver it into position.
Mine was not that cheap but I still better than the original price. Also picked up Breacher from Target for $10 instead of $18 due to the sale starting tomorrow.Quote:

That's one of the nicest looking box I've seen.
Got a personal grail yesterday after 3 weeks of maiting on the mailman.....
the entire backissues of the TFCC club mag!!!!!
guess what i did all day at work...
Im thinking that's "waiting" and is a typing error, otherwise:eek::eek::eek: it would sound like a "skinflick acquisition":p.Quote:

of the 36 they are up too, ones in the mail, and 2 i had... so 33 issues...
some of the features on previous years actually want me to pull out armada and have a look through the storage box
and spelling mistakes are expected when your not allowed on non-work sites and i'm typing too quick to proofread before someone sees :-P

Thanks to Targets sale price for scout class figures.
I just received a Transmetal 2 Ramulus thanks to eBay. :)
PCC Huffer and Smolder. Planning to go look for some more later tonight.
henkei ghost starscream thanks to tetsuwan convoy
and generations darkmount from target
Got Clench and Roughstuff thanks to Griffin. Would post pics, but damn camera is broken.
I bought it purely because of the mold history! Didn't like the general look of the robot at first - the head is more PowerRangers than TFs, and combine that with the fact that he doesn't have any weapons, it places him into a fist-fighting monk category. However, the transformation's ingenuity and detail won me over :)Quote:

Btw, awesome Alternity Silver Convoy! Looks awesome in its box!
Picked up hubcap for $10 from Target today- no breachers :mad:
I saw Breacher at Target Rhodes last Saturday. No idea if there are any left there or not.
hmmm my stuff is taking its time to arrive:(..... must be my postie acting up again....Quote:

Im so glad i got them make them both look more cartoon like :D
Wow, they really do look good with those addons. Almost tempting to buy one of those two pack reissues off eBay and use the addons on them.
Yea its worth it! And here they are in my G1 collectionQuote:
