Very nice haul Sharky! But above all the last line makes me insanely jealous. I'm halfway there myself.

Not a lot today at the Parra fair. Tracks thanks to Ultramarginal.
It was nice meeting up with some Ozformers today esp out of towner Bruticus. Big thanks to Liege for hosting a get together and a great lunch, most generous of you.

Picked up a fair bit from today's Parra Fair - some of the purchases I'm still questioning and have buyer's remorse, some I'm quite happy and content with. :o
First up, from fellow board members (thanks guys!):
MISB Binaltech Wheeljack (from Sharky)
MISB Botcon Ironhide (from Sky Shadow)
MOSC Generations Dirge (from liegeprime)
Loose Cybertron Scattorshot + Movie Payload, Dreadwing & Brawl (from Bartrim)
Loose Botcon Kup (from optimus1)
Loose Movie Skyblast (from Dirge)
http://i954.photobucket.com/albums/a...9/P5170032.jpg
From my Japanese plastic crack dealers at the fair, MISB Galaxy Force goodness:
GC-09 Guardshell (Landmine)
GC-18 Live Convoy (Evac)
GC-20 Backgild (CD Scattorshot)
GD-07 Flame Convoy (Scourge)
http://i954.photobucket.com/albums/a...9/P5170026.jpg
And from the same suppliers, MISB Superlink goodness:
SC-01 Grand Convoy (Optimus Prime)
SC-22 Omega Supreme
http://i954.photobucket.com/albums/a...9/P5170021.jpg
Man... you cleaned up!!!
After seeing the actual size of Energon Omega Supreme at liege's place- I'm tempted to seek it out. That MISB Superlink OS is so sweet! :D
(Also picked up Universe Blades for you from kristofferer)
My Acquisition:
MOSC Classics Mirage
Cheers for grabbing the Universe Blades off kristofferer for me - just hang onto it since it's only a loose duplicate so I'm in no hurry for it at all.
As for my haul, yeah some of it I'm still questioning - like the Galaxy Force ones which in hindsight don't make any sense to me as to why I purchased them (as I have both loose and MISB Hasbro Cybertron equivalents already).
I guess those guys at that stall know that I'm a sucker for MISB Jap releases so they kept throwing package deal prices at me that I couldn't refuse. :o
OS will remain MISB as I don't have another one, but I'm tempted to go find a cheap loose Hasbro one to buy so I can have a fiddle with it since the transformation/separation intrigues me.
And yes, he's quite large and imposing! Bigger than Primus and roughly the same size as Unicron - he certainly looks very impressive on display.
My haul for today. :)

Picked up HA Backfire & Sandstorm during this week. No pics cos I'm too lazy (and opened them before I took pics).
From parra fair:

Only the two smaller lego sets were from the fair (the larger one was from Westfields) and the TFs were pre-arranged.
The larger lego set had a pre-determined destiny:

The fish love it, too!
@Dirge ARe the fish able to swim in that? Looks a bit crowded? I don't know I've never owned pet fish before. Just asking
Holy crap those are huge hauls.
Well I got Highbrow on Friday. Woo!
My Parra fair haul but no pics.

:)Thanks to Pretty boy Valk I now have a Metrodash to go with my Metrotitan and he picked it up for me at a very cheap $35.00 compared to what I thought the damage would be:D. Also got G1 Scourge, Book Soundwave and 2 Landcross guys, don't know their names:o. Thanks to DD for selling me Soundblaster book version earlier in the month as well:)
The fish exploration HQ is awesome - I'm envisaging them transforming it and driving off in their new submarine.
And re: Nut Convoy - I don't know if you've tried it, but there's a way to make his missile launcher potentially more useful in robot mode (à la G1 Megatron) - Vector Prime displays it in this post:

Picked up today:
http://i931.photobucket.com/albums/a...09/photo-1.jpg
A welcome addition and enjoyed transforming him. Now I can get rid of the legends class version.
Woot! 500 posts
Finally got less lazy when I got home, so I took a photo (this one I took a while ago, just finally uploaded it lol)

Most came from the Hornsby Fair from various people.
Then I got this lot from Parra Fair. Wreck Gar is just there for aesthetic value to ride Scrapheap. Mostructor is now complete to stand, got foot and waist. Springer holding his newly acquired sword (though he needs a little blue pill to keep it upright :p) Cliff is from Blink90210
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v5...1/SANY2020.jpg
The new head for Kup makes him look even better, big difference in heads. Hip joints on Cyclonus are week as, but stands fine.
I never realised it, but with my Universe Galvatron, I had his knees transformed wrong. Wasn't until I got this one that I realised it :o
No great photography skills, maybe when I get the time this weekend, I will take some better photos for the action pose thread.
After a long period of time, picked up a ROTF Jetfire for $29 to complete my Buster Jetwing Prime!

Also Classics Starscream, Generations Warpath, TC, Wheeljack and Scourge courtesy of STL.
Got dark crumplezone today from dirge
Glad you like it as it was a b**** to set up.
Lego itself doesn't float, but assembling a lego set like that in an existing aquarium is not really feasible, so I had to place the assembled model into the tank, complete with air inside a lot of the bricks.
The base is half buried under the gravel, but the top part (the actual workstation bit) is meant to rest on the base using gravity. So it floats - I've had to wedge it underneath the (top mounted) filter box. Which took a long time to do, as Lego tends to unclip very easily in water. It works well enough, but if it moves I'll have to carefully place it again.
Thankfully they're a fairly friendly & calm group of fish, who didn't so much mind my hands placing everything!
heretic, good luck with Warpath ;)
My latest stash of plastic goodness acquired today.
First off, G1 Soundwave thanks to Blink90210.
Then RTS Jazz, ROTF Legend Devestator, PCC Combaticons, each $9.87 courtesy of Target.
And lastly Transformers Vault, an awesome find also from Target for $29. I was just about to order it too!
http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a3...2011Haul14.jpg
DOTM Skids from Fishpond for $15. Once again terrible packaging ..
Picked up the Autobot Ark and RTS G2 Prime (found him for $9... pretty hard to resist, I couldn't believe it myself :P)
Recent things-n-bits:
- Generations Warpath, Wheeljack & Kup

some of my recent stuff
http://i686.photobucket.com/albums/v...1/100_1007.jpg
Classics devastator, mosc rattrap, dark crumplezone and misb costco optimus prime/overload
I'm really happy with the costco giftset I got it for a really good price. I probably over paid for classics devastator but if fansproject does release a cross fire set for devastator in green I expect this sets value to skyrocket so I figured I better grab one while its still relatively easy to get a hold of
Lots of Movie toys talk, not enough G1... heh.
These are my hauls from Osaka. Not going to list them at the moment, going to subject you guys to an eye test to pick out the goodies... :D

WTF? Is that a Fort Max/Scorponok 2-pack?!
This trip was did about USD$4500+ in damage over 3 days, no including the hotel stay and plane tics (which were business class, eek)... I'm just a horrible person.
:D
sure thing dude. I have the list prepared, just tooo tired to put it on last night. See post in the G1 acquisitions thread.
Picked up two more gen Scourges last night, completing my trifecta of Sweeps :D
(three is enough for me... your mileage may vary)
