The Boss Coffee Soundwave actually ended up being my 2nd one, which worked out utterly superbly as my original was missing his Shoulder Cannon (You aint ever peice mealing that sucka! :p) and this one had his! :D

Megatron is larger than Browning, and engineering-wise a substantially superior figure. Browning's transformation isn't quite as clever as Megatron's, e.g the fists are detachable missiles whereas they're retractable on Megatron. And Browning has plenty of groin emphasis, plus that embarrassing "hitch" on the end of his... thing. ;) The yellow trigger on the barrel also detracts from the realism of the gun mode somewhat, whereas Megatron doesn't have anything like that.Quote:

HAHA 'Build Giant Robot' :D
Heh, yeah... it sounds like a cheap chinese KO with bad grammatical Engrish.

Who is the yellow guy in this pic. Is it custom, does that HM take the place of the original head or just clip around it or something??:)Quote:

Found 3 of the FoC figures (Blast-off, Swindle, Brawl)
Not pictured is Alternator Sideswipe.
Also in picture is a tonne of DBZ figures and cards, I was too lazy to take more than one picture! :p
The yellow dude is Classicsverse Sunstreaker and the Headmaster Warrior is Trizer. All legit of course. :)Quote:

@Bidoof: Very pleased to hear that he finally arrived mate & that now you get to experience a figure of such superior awesomeness of whom many of us have had the lucky chance to know most of our lives. ;):D
@LordCyrus: Glad you've found a source for plastic crack that suits your needs dude, knowing how shite it is down here locally; A nice range of figures too! :cool:
@Cranky: Bloody good to see that you're stickin' with your usual hauls dude :p, how are ya finding Gaia Unicron?
Arriving yesterday, a tome that now confirms that I am a complete convert when it comes to my stance on the Preceding Transformers Cartoon to that of Transformers: Prime :D
(It's Volume: 1, Volume: 2 arrived the day prior :))
Today though, arriving courtesy of Defcon; Transformers: Animated, Fast Action Battlers - Soundwave! :cool:

I also did a little 'Demo' video of him & his sound gimmick. ;):D
Sorry to get slightly off topic, but where Microman figures ever released here? Was just looking through the catalogue scans and from the 1983 section, I've definitely got the ones called R4 and R8 from the combiner team that make the Micro Robot V. I remember a friend gave them to me around 1992, to this day I never knew what they were. They were pretty worn out by the time I got them, wondering where my friend would of got them, he was born in 1981.Quote:

I think only as Micronauts.Quote:

Hursti, the sound on that video comes through really well!
a couple things I've picked up lately, some arriving last month but I'll include them here:
http://i1123.photobucket.com/albums/...psac15ca25.jpg
Now my cyberverse Primes can have a sword and a gun each.
Everything starts to look like a nail:

This Guy arrived finally from that fishpond sale that was on months ago
http://i1123.photobucket.com/albums/...0-06215858.jpg
I was amased that it was in one piece given how it was shipped
this lot arrived from eBay nd the two legends were purchased at TRU over the wekeend when they had no MP primes, I still used teh coupon that was distributed here. The transformation on the Starscream is really good. goldbug, not so much.

That barrel/chamber popping out is the best gimmick ever!! :)Quote:

@Suspectimus... well megs already has his Shockwave so 44 Magnum prolly was too much gun overload :D. Still he is quite a good figure I agree... he does look like actionmaster Treadshot in a way. :D:D
@ Ultramarginal: That is one lucky shipping!! NO padding inside at all to protect the statue?? :eek:

^^^^What!!!!! Is this real life??
I wonder if they had more.
Nicely done dirge! Nice find, and very goodluck on your part!
Wonder how they came to have all three, and what they must have paid for them to sell them off at that low price? :eek:
That is simply incredible Dirge, I can only imagine how you must have felt at the time of purchasing them! Bargain of a lifetime right there, no doubt about it. :)
:eek: :eek: :eek:Quote:

Dude, I know you love Soundwave (btw bidoofdude, that's not Classics Soundwave, that looks to be the Encore reissue -- the Hasbro reissue in the Classics style box is a repaint of the Soundblaster mould) -- but 3 Maximi for $250... dirge just won every acquisition thread past, present and future!Quote:

Okay I have to confess... I did not pick up 3 Maximi for $250 at retail. I already own both Fort & Brave Max (and both cost me more than $250).
The Grand Maximus is griffin's acquisition. He flew down from Brisbane for the day to pick up a Grand Max he sourced in Sydney, and so came over here before his return flight. We decided to have some fun with posting his acquisition.
Congrats griffin (:
I soo nearly emailed Frasers Cycles, Sports and Toys. I was trying to see pics of any toys on their website.....Quote:
