Got my hands on Masterpiece Grimlock. Very nice toy. Worth $150? I'm not sure. The other Half was not happy about. (Or could that be because I've blown 2k in last two days on Transformers?)

My Acquisitions today, courtesy of Verno and Ebay:

Verno -
Beast Wars 10th Anniversary Build-a-Figure Transmutate
Beast Wars Magnaboss Silverbolt 2x Feather Swords

eBay -
Generation 1 Decepticon Megatron Bowl
Generation 1 Decepticon Megatron Cup

I am so damn happy with Transmutate, she looks awesome and, like the 2 Feather Swords, I've been after her for such a long time!.
A Huge thanks to Verno for these. :D:D:D

The cup and bowl I got to compliment my G1 Dinner Tray for future display purposes. :D

And now, a nice close up of one of the most memorable characters of the Beast Wars:

They make great display pieces. I have a plate and cup displayed in my cabinet and a bowl as well (but that's in storage because it wouldn't all fit).

The plate in the top left hand corner of your pic 5FDP I used to own a number of years ago, kindly destroyed by younger siblings...:rolleyes:, I picked it up at a Bowral St. Vincent De Paul's OP Shop - 70c... :eek:

I've never been able to find another example since, hence the reason I jumped on picking up the Bowl and Cup. :D

They do act as nice display pieces don't they?
Man I gotta get me one of those lithograph prints! :D

Is that Cybertron Scattorshot any good? I picked up the Galaxy Force Version from Freaks and Geeks in the city for $2AUD when it was closing down about a year back but I've not yet opened it.

I think it's a nice figure, although the leg articulation's a bit limited.

Congrats Goki on one hell of a milestone! :D


Looks like everyone who attended the Parra Fair did pretty well and enjoyed themselves, man I hate missing these things so I'm going to do my best to attend the next Meet! ;):D

I decided that I was bored enough to do a photo of my acquisitions thus far this month.

http://img843.imageshack.us/img843/1030/img0376s.jpg

Brakedown is to replace one I repainted, and the Classics Rodimus was Llamatron's slightly broken one that I combined with my own slightly broken one for a fully working one (which turned out to be a lot cheaper than just buying a new one... damn you FP!)

My Parra Fair haul :D

Selected some melee weapons ( :Dthanks to Gutsman for the idea) for my G1 Pretenders, an axe (sorta) for Doubleheader, a spartan looking sword fro Pincher and a Halbred which will be somehow "tapered" into a Hapoon like weapon later on, also appropriated a trident in the weapons that came with Castle Grayskull as it has a better look than Merman's

Dear Anubis!

How in the Hell did you get all that in your little cart Liege? :p:D
That is a very, very nice haul indeed, some very nice pieces to say the least. :D

Well Castle Grayskull folds so it fits diagonally in my Upgraded cart:D and all the rest doesn't really take much space, oh and I have a backpack as well coz I needed to pack Iceburn's stuff as well heheheh:p

Ah liege, so you got the Cliffjumper. I was trying to see if there was a Cliffjumper in Wickster's loot - you must've beat me to it.

No matter. I'm very happy with how much I found.

My haul today:
http://www.paxeiro.com/newstuff/220810.jpg
Strafe (from Skyshadow), Sandstorm (griffin) & WFC Prime at the fair. Yoda from Big W on the way home (and cheap - they had the wrong price on the peg, was only $25).

Sorry that we missed each other. Would've been nice to catch-up. I was the guy wearing the grey beanie (the only one there wearing a beanie from memory).

I spent most of the time talking to a friend that came with me. He's not into Transformers so he kinda felt slightly out of place otherwise I would've spent more time with you guys.

I didn't see Rampage. Did he show?

Nice stuff guys! I also got a good haul: mostly from other board members though.

Will post up my stuff - when I find my camera. Argh!!!! :eek::o

Yeah, Rampage was there. I did tell him that you were looking for him. Rampage was wearing non-TF "civvies" which makes him harder to identify too. :p ;)

yeah it was with a packed loot with other Universe legends, I asked Jaime if he was willing to split him out as I only needed Cliffy.

@Autocon, sorry for crappy photos, my ol camera is getting blurrier and blurrier as it ages heheh:D but here's some close up pics for you. Included a pic of his recolours into other minicon characters, as the black colour scheme he has doesnt really show much his details.

Not yet in my possession but something I won this morning on Ebay - Commodore 64 Transformers game. Got up early to make sure I didn't get sniped.

There was one featured on TFW the other week but unfortunately I missed out on that one.

Very happy with this rare and complete item :D

That is awesome man!, I love old PC games (I still play Doom, II :p) so this acquisition scores extra points! :D
Now, I'm going to assume that you've got a Commodore64 lying around 5FDP? or are you going to make an image of it and run it on an emulator?

For those curious, see this. :D
