March Acquisitions

[Vector Prime]

any photos of the shelf?

Nope - my TF display is in complete disarray at the moment

Will do so once my new cabinets arrive.

[ITZTRU]

So with all the recent sales on movie figures, I kinda went on a bit of a rampage...



...and yes...that is both Buster Prime and Jetfire in Bot and Alt modes as well as Jetpower Prime in the middle...which means...yes...I bought three twin packs

not to mention BB and SS in Bot and Alt modes...

Just can't find Megatron

and also:



bit hard to see but got my TFC Prime and G1 Rodimus to go with my "Masterpeice in bot mode and G1 in Alt mode theme". Still waiting for my G1 Grimlock to arrive

Thanks Fatbot!!!!

Very nice. Always been one of my fav alternators. It seems yours is the Euro variant (or a reissue, I just can't figure it out). The US release (or initial release) has Mirage as artwork on the bubble sides instead of a photo of the toy.

[snaketales]

yayyyyy RTS Jazz and Tracks have arrived from overseas!
Just as they disappeared from the shelves of my local Big W, phew

[Darthprimus]

got tracks jazz headmaster pack and a buncha he-men w/accessories. SCORE!

[Hursticon]

Received MISB TFC Blitzwing in the mail today - courtesy of a US eBay seller (and 170 big ones)

It was worth every penny!

Blitzwing was my second TF ever as a kid and my first Decepticon, so you can't put a price on re-living your childhood (even if it is the re-issue and not the original G1 toy).

Congratulations VP!
I 100% agree, you can't really put a price on reliving things from your childhood as there is just no other feeling like it - Glad you've been finally able to acquire Blitzwing dude!

Damn!
Congratulations ITZTRU on acquiring 3 lots of those awesomely painted figures! - They look really cool displayed together like that!


My acquisition today is courtesy of Sharky!
Beast Wars Maximal - Ironhide (Magnaboss)
After close to 6 years, I've finally got a set of those blasted clubs to complete my Magnaboss to 100% in parts terms!

[i_amtrunks]

Got myself a Battle in space pack, was surprised that the matrix was metal.

Mate brought me back RtS Ironhide and an old TF movie interrogator Barricade from the USA. Was not really interested in either figure, but hey it was very nice of him to grab them for me, and they were so cheap it ends up being two for hte price of one figure bought in Australia.

Also painted up an old KO figure, but will take pics later when I finish some more.

[Vector Prime]

Man, not that the TFC isn't nice, but should have went for g1, either mib or misb... or AFA. Especially only getting a select few figs...I'm sure you can afford it

It's not whether I can afford it, it's the justification in spending $400+ for a MISB or AFA graded item that will forever remain sealed simply for the sake of nostalgia.

Having said that though, I'm still keeping my eyes out for a MISB or AFA graded one and may pick one up if it's the 'right price'.

Congratulations VP!

Thanks dude, but yeah I guess there is a price limit childhood nostalgia (see my reply above)

+1 I was quite shocked myself after expecting it to be made out of plastic and the chrome being painted on... good bonus I suppose.
