Got this on ebay for only $10 extra than retail, will post some outa box images later.
Wow! That Overlord looks as if it has recently came out of the factory! Awesome fine and congratulations, Rampagess
G1 Countdown arrived in the mail today. the base only minus the two small lasers, a mechanical arm, one short ramp, gunner pod, gantry/platform and countdown himself... but it gives my micromasters somewhere to hang out while I look for the rest.
Four G1 constructicons also arrived today.
Maybe pics later... Christmas wrapping and all...
Yes! Was beginning to think this fella had been lost in the mail but no, Fangry decided to turn up on the day before Christmas, bless him. :p
I'm slightly annoyed as the ebay auction stated him as being 100% complete yet he didn't come with any instructions and even more cruddly, no stickers! This is particularly irksome as neither reprolabels nor tfstickers carry reproduction stickers, so I guess I'll have to put up with him being naked. Waah.

Also received the 3rd Encore tapes set and as expected, they're great toys. Comparing my original Rumble (red one) to the Encore Rumble, I noticed that the red and black plastic is a bit washed out/transparent on the Encore compared to the very vibrant black and red on the original. It's not a deal breaker by any means but it's worth mentioning.

Thanks to Santa, some nice pick-ups this morning.
- ROTF Optimus Prime silver coin (from the Perth Mint)
- Stubby holder (this will get a workout today :D)
- ROTF playing cards (in metal tin). Haven't seen these before and may be a 'first sighting'.
- ROTF over-sized magnet (it's says perfect for the car... it would last 2 seconds before someone lifted it)
- Coffee mug with party mix

Merry Xmas everyone!

I love the look of that Nebular Starscream.
Rampagesss, good pickup on Grand Max. I know Overlord is a "bigger" deal, but he's more common that most TF Jrs.

Sweet Hezoos! rampagesss gots himself a Hasbro G1 Overlord - which I believe was released in Australia but in obscenely limited quantities making him really frikkin' rare! I swear that there are more fans in Australia who own Takara Overlords than those who own Hasbro Overlords! :D Good score rampagesss! (^0^)

I gots myself two Transformers tee shirts from Jayjays at Salamander Bay. $10 each. :)
HA Bumblebee from secret santa
Transformers: The Movie blu-ray (animated version)
got myslef a supreme devestator yesterday!! tis awesome. and transformers revenge of the fallen on dvd with an optimus prime poster!:D:D:D
I wouldn't pay extra to get a Hasbro Overlord. I still find it hilarious that the version of Overlord that _was_ released in Australia is now more expensive and harder to find than the version that was only released in Japan. :) Overlord's not a priority for me, but I'll get whichever version is cheaper and easier to find... so probably the Japanese one. :p
...come on TakaraTOMY... give us Encore Overlord!!
Thanks to the Toys R Us sale I got me an animated voyager optimus prime... and I am VERY happy with it. Only niggles are the lack of neck movement and the axe. It's just too big. Love the water pistol though.
Picture courtesy of a Google search and seibertron.com... much cooler than anything i could take.

I don't like how the strobe lights can't lock into place in robot mode. I gotta be conscious to keep my thumb on it when I play with it otherwise it keeps flopping around, but this isn't always possible when you're making him do quick action poses (cos you're using both hands to move the rest of his body). It's so annoying. :( The lack of an Autobot insignia also irks me, and that spinning transformation gimmick also doesn't impress me. :/ I agree that the axe is fail. Ummm... the neck does move though (horizontal rotation). I like the faceplate gimmick... not quite as effective as Cybertron Optimus Prime because you can still see the plate when it's retracted, but unlike Cybertron Prime Animated Prime has a visible neck! ;) So considering this toy's aesthetics I think it was done well. :) I also like how he has a gun! So few Animated Autobots have guns.
"Have gun have fun!" - Triggerhappy
If you ever get the two pack Animated prime Snaketales, just snipe the axe from it and give it to V. Prime it fits him perfectly and oh so better looking.:D
The neck does move side to side only.

It seems that all they reissue is Geewun with just a couple of exceptions but do they have other molds for the latter G1 years? If they do (they must have more than a few) why not ressue them? People would love an Encore Darkwing/Dreadwind set and their jet modes are realistic enough for wider appeal.

Picked up Encore #19, frenzy and Rumble are awesome been wanting these guys for years, well put together too.
