:eek:OMG, I just blew $137.50 U.S on Nike Optimus and Megatron. I hope they are worth it:rolleyes:.
I got the second Animated comic on the way home tonight. Unlike the first which adapted three stories, this one only adapts two: Blast from the Past and Nanosec. In doing so it skips three other episodes which surprised me.
Masterforce was bought at JB Hi Fi yesterday too.....
Man i want to get this to watch it all but it looks so stupid IMO IMO don't flame me.
they smell like gym socks. ;)Quote:

Although the main cast is technically human, they do an awesome job of keeping the plot very much Transformers despite this.
You dont really need to finish watching Headmasters to enjoy Masterforce. Its pretty much its own story rather than a continuation, although they do make a brief and rather pointless attempt to link it to Headmasters.
Headmasters is by far the weaker series when it comes to plot and story.
In my opinion the Japanese G1 series rank as following (not including Zone):
1. Masterforce
2. Victory
.
.
3. Headmasters
Victory's position may change in the near future as I am only 3-4 episodes away from finishing it. The latter episodes are very much making me into a fan and changing my perception of some characters. For example, through most of the series I found the Dinoforce to be bad comic relief. However after these last few episodes I have become a fan and would buy the toys if I could.
I still like Headmasters but is mainly due to nostalgia rather than the series itself although it has its moments.

Nice get Tiby, that 10 months was worth it huh?
As many of my clients say: "It's the principle!"
The customs guy could not believe it when I told him we have to have safe storage. He also said that before 6 months ago it was very hard to get anything through, but things have loosened up now. Good news for Encore Megatron, Megaplex, Browning etc, I hope...
The best part was I have to keep him in safe storage but I basically walked out of the customs place and put him on my car-seat. I could have waltzed straight into a 7-11 (not that I would). But it shows a disconnect between the government and the employees, who are just real people after all.
Tiby: I'm so glad Megs is coming home to a place where he's lurved & appreciated a whole lot more then where he used to be. (Damn you, Australian Government & your stupid rules & regulations)
Anyway, after telling myself "No" over & over again everytime I saw him in the stores, but being physically threatened by his willingness to shoot first & then ask questions later, I decided to take him home & still encountered this...
Scored Cyber Slammers Jazz, Robot Heros Optimus Prime & Ravage and High Score 100 for my birthday off my wife. Unfortunately like we all know there is a TF drought so I wasn't expecting much.
Very nice, Pulse. I haven't been able to find him anywhere so I have bitten the bullet and ordered from overseas...
again quite lazy to take 2 shots so I included all the new arrivals in one pic
Thanks to Phoenix for the trade of these AM - Starscream and Double punch, not shown is 1/2 (plane) of flywheels... for an extra for a friend

the two other figs are from Fungal, thanks mate these things are awesome!!. I might hunt for some more of em in the shops from now on!!
Action Master Prowl arrived today, although I think a missile fell out in transit ):
Finally found me a Movie Longarm, hadn't even seen the bugger in stores before.
I got a Cyberslammer Jazz from K-Mart with the 25% off and the Masterforce DVDs from JB for $50.
:)Picked up Masterforce DVD as well:D, also Spotlight Ramjet and Blaster as well as the complete books of Megatron Origins and Stormbringer:D. Almost forgot Beast Wars Source book no:4. $85.00 in total just with comics today:eek::D.
Picked up Madman Masterforce DVD set as well :D
Hey guys today I got star wars Transformer Luke Skywalker from david jones and alternators hound from toyworld. Yesterday I payied for encore starscrem and ironhide from hlj also I got transformer blanket covers from pillow talk. And I went to J-BI-HI-FI, and I wanted to get masterforce dvd but I didn’t have enough money so maybe next week.
I picked up SWTF Luke Skywalker/Snow Speeder from K-Mart at 25% off (:
benben, there are two Luke Skywalker Transformers. I assume you also picked up the Snow Speeder, not the X-Wing?
Masterforce DVD and Tf: Animated Volume 2
Transformers Animated Optimus Prime (Cybertron Mode) from eBay.
Cool funkyaw. May we have a pic and price please?
Will try and post pics later but there are heaps circulating the web at the moment.
There is a seller in HK (heerotoysmaker) selling them for $1USD + $30USD shipping. TFW2005 has a massive thread on him - unfortunately it seems as if he is running out of stock at the moment.
aaah my ebay stuff has arrived.
Energon Scorponok, Energon Divebomb, 6 energon minicons, Energon Starscream, Armada Starscream, Energon Mirage. pics later... maybe if I feel not too lazy.... half will be presents for my Godsons back in Phils ( those figs which I have already anyway) to influence their young minds nad make them little TF fanboys from now on...:D:D
Well, my Megatron Themed collection is complete!
http://www.paxeiro.com/collection/browning.jpg
Okay, it's actually a Microchange MC-07 Browning rather than the later Transformers figure, but the mould is the same, and both are Takara produced. So as far as I am concerned (if not the UCM), it's Browning (:

Excuse the lens flare. With three chromed toys (Megaplex - top shelf, gun mode - being the exception) and the perspex cabinet being very reflective, I wasn't able to completely eliminate the effects of the flash.
Very nice Dirge.
If you don't mind me asking, what country did the seller live in? I could easily see this guy being a pain to pass through customs.
& one more thing I noticed, being a pre-transformer, why does he have a Decepticon sticker on him? Bots & Cons only existed 1984-onwards, right?
If he told you, he'd have to kill you!
Well done Dirge!
Yeah I'm very happy!
Hong Kong, China. It was sent in robot mode. I have the permit from NSW Firearms, although obviously I wanted to avoid the hassle of getting it released from customs.
Because I put it there :)
Tiby, he knows me as a real person & vice versa. I'm not just some weirdo who you don't wanna mess with.
Then again, Helleniki are the wrong people to screw around with. You can stay on our good side through the medium of TFs.
;)
I also know where you live!
Still, after you handed me 56 free Transformers, I'm not about to mess with you...
Now that we've got things cleared up... Let's have an ENERGON PARTY!!!!!!
Energon's on Me!!!!! :D
Cube bottom's up!
Drink up boys!
