Argh! What's wrong with u ladies? It's the first day of Spring! How could all u slackers forget!
I haven't forgotten. I just haven't acquired anything TF-related today. :( I accept donations though. :)
I just got a henkei OP, Megatron, Mirage, Grimlock, BB, Starscream and a BT Argent Meister (for my friend) from Robotkingdom. Gees they ship fast (bought em last Thursday). I'm getting yelled at for buying so many at once by my parents.
LOL... what u want is a private storage facility!
a PO BOX isn't going to do jack if you have to carry it (all) home :P
Ah I know what you're talking about exactly! Though it hasn't happened to me in the past 3 weeks since I've mostly gotten Lego.
Two ways I get around this stuff:
1.) Leave it in the car and smuggle it up when everyone's asleep.
2.) Send it to the Missus' place
3.) Send it to a friend's place
:D
SCORE!! I just picked up Universe/Classics Prowl and Octankor at Kmart - 15% off! :eek:
I went there to buy them, but a staff member had obviously left one of last week's sale tickets on... I asked the nearest guy (who turned out to be the Toy/Leisure Manager) and he said it was a mistake, but that I could have any TFs for 15% off! :)
With an absolutely massive thankyou to Demonac & Iceburn, a package showed up today with a loose but complete Cyclonus as well as a MISB Scourge :)
Well, I contemplated keeping Scourge MISB but then I thought "Nah!" & finally set him free after 22 long years :D (Now, I'm starting to feel just a little queezy breathing in that 22 year old air :p)

This was the first sealed G1 I've ever opened & it made me feel "kinda special" :D
First up, Road Caesar - bought the set and the lot auction also turned up. The ones from the lot auction have seen better days. But okay still to display. The other one MIB, Complete and sticker unapplied.

Browning - MIB Complete
http://i245.photobucket.com/albums/g...9/DSC03138.jpg
Grandus - missing antennas and helipad
http://i245.photobucket.com/albums/g...9/DSC03139.jpg
G1 Inferno - complete with instructions and power sheet
http://i245.photobucket.com/albums/g...9/DSC03140.jpg
In case you are wondering, this was mainly from a lot auction on eBay, hence missing some parts.
Nice score Kelvin esp Browning.
...99, Browning should have chrome silver guns? I hope it's just a case of stripped chrome. That'd be a Microman Browning, btw - which is what I have (and it's close enough, really)
Nice haul, dude (:
Picked up Universe Blaster w/ Mini-con BlockRock today.
Call me crazy, but I actually like it :D
I hope so Pulse, I am actually eyeing one (Anime Galvatron) now but it still comes up to over AUD$100 with shipping.
Anyway I picked up parcel this morning with Encore 11: Skywarp and Thundercracker together with my other RK orders. Am soooo excited, I think I'm the first to post the Encore Seekers! The packaging is nice too. Pics up tonight.. :D
mei..you've been up and buying alot now eh... :P
wow someone else has grandus other than me! cept my one has a broken arm :(

Cybertron Optimus Primal
he is AWESOME!
:o :o No I didn't bro, every fortnight when pay comes in, I limit myself to one large order from an online toy store, usually RK. Then I am broke for the rest of the two weeks till next pay comes.. Unless there are some good single figure buys off ebay that can't wait.. :D :p
Sifun, Grandus is great !! did yours have all the antennas and helipad? If you ever want to offload those accessories, let me know. :) Broken arm? That should be an easy fix?
Dirge, you're right.. Browning does come with Chrome guns. Mine came with original packaging and the bullets as well. They were orange. So I would say it is the diaclone or Microman version??
Nice haul as ever Kelvin... hmmm so there is no problems getting browning in? Customs wise... are they only after Megatrons then?
Hi Liegeprime,
I did take some precautions. The item was MIB, I ended up asking the seller to not send the foam with it. flatten the pack and ensure that Browning was shipped in bot mode to avoid any suspicion of the item looking like a gun.
Not sure if that helps but I got it in safely. So, best of luck to anyone also getting this in.
Not really a September acquisition but only manage to have time to take the pictures today. The MOSC Armada (Walmart-Exclusive) Dinobots

Nice haul bro, I like the Dinobots.. hehe is it from ebay? :p
Anyway as promised, my stuff from RK, mostly G1 stuff which is my favourite:

Close up on the front, the back is the same as any of the Encores:
http://i141.photobucket.com/albums/r...rs/Tfn-472.jpg
And here's how they look like when opened. Funny some of the stickers are already applied? For the hasbro ones, you have to stick all of them yourself:

From another forum member in Allspark. Hmm, I can't bear to pay so much now with the current RK orders that I want... *sad sad*. Will see how. Might be desperate....
KC99 - nice score of JP toys. So many I want. Major droolage on this end... :p
BTW, that would be the pre-TFs Browning, as it has red parts. Browning has blue parts. If you have a copy of the Generations book, it's a good reference guide, otherwise, go here:

Items I picked up from the post office today:
JP Beast Wars Crystal Beast Convoy (looks a little off-white, but is 12 years old, so is probably normal)
European Rotorstorm
Gen2 Turquoise Grimlock
Animorphs Marco/Beetle (that completes my Animorphs Transformers)
Microns X-Dimension MM12 Air Military Team (Fram, Glide, Recon)

Also got the Armada Store Exclusive recolour of Super-pants Prime. This is the LAST Armada toy I was missing, but since it was just a recolour, and was sold in a multi-pack of toys that were not recolours (Armada Jetfire and six Minicons), this wasn't a toy I thought I would end up getting without doubling up on the others. I then noticed a few weeks back that a number of loose figures were appearing on ebay of just the recoloured toy loose (after 5 years since its release, I guess people were finally selling it from their *loose* collections).
I got one within my price range, which made me feel really happy to be tying up that loose end. And it is actually my favourite colour version of that toy, as the gold colouring on the truck section matches the gold highlights on the trailer (the trailer is exactly the same as the original version). The original version HAD to be red on the top half to have that classic Optimus look, but it bugged me that it had gold highlights on the trailer that didn't go well with the red. Fortunately, the US Kmart exclusive recolour fixes up that problem, but giving it a matching gold coloured top half.
Below is a comparisson photo of the four colour versions of Super-pants Prime. From left is: Powerlinx Prime (general release recolour), US Kmart exclusive Prime, Regular first release Prime, US Costco exclusive Prime.

Marco looks so fat! Cassy or whoever the south American character was, was nice! :)
Dirge, I'll get photo of the box tonight sometime.
Yes, the seller told me this was a diaclone version so it is probably that. but the box photo should be able to identify him.
Griffin, I have nearly completed all I want on the JP figures. Your latest acquisition is one that also generates droolage syndrome.. its great !!! I look forward to your acquisitions always.
Thanks for the reference guide BTW.
I went out yesterday on a supply run and bought my self a Classics Prowl
I had so had to not open the package till this morning.
Like a kid
Gawd I'm getting Old.....
I also bought the "red G1 Optimus Prime/Megatron t-shirt" from Big W... maybe we should use this as the temporary Ozformers shirt until the real one gets made! :D
Sorry pulse, but FOR ONCE, I wanted to be the first to get the new encore.. hehe.. :D Hope your online store stocks them soon okay.. :)
Really kyle? I didn't scrutinized them, man I so wanted to take a sickie today to stay home and open up my figures.. :p
Even better! :) I'm so glad they've made these improvements over the commemorative series from just a couple of years ago... ;)
Oh that's ok :) My store finally got 'em in stock today... "Yay!"
You realise now that you're gonna have to open up Screamer & take some action shots with the 3 of them? ;)
