Well, the end has sorta come. My last real bastion of Transformers displays in the house was on the shelving above my computer in the study and Orion can now officially climb up there like the rascally little monkey he is!
For the past 2 years I've used the top shelf for TF busts, the second shelf to rotate my latest acquisitions before going into crates and the 3rd shelf for sundry. Tonight for their safety they are all getting packed away in their boxes
Sigh... I really shoulda got around to getting that house extension (with a purposely built TF room) done at some point this year - with No 2 bub on the way we probably wont now for about a year. My own damn fault for being lazy on the issue. This leaves me with the center of the pool table in the manshed as my one (currently) safe spot to play with my new toys.
Ah well, as they say - first world problems

I've been opening up some boxed RotF figs I have stashed away, and I haven't had a good run.
- Deluxe Swerve's head keeps popping off. The ball joint seems too big
- The Fallen's spring loaded flame mechanism does not work
- Grindor's compartment for Scorponok does not stay latched. Also, has the auto morph gimmick from Blackout been removed from this toy?
- ...and worst of all, Stratosphere's left knee was split straight out of the box.

Damn post office is shut- love the fact they have a sign up about it but under the 'Your nearest open store is...' there is nothing written. Maybe because it's a few hundred k's away
C'mon Aussie Post - I haven't had a new toy all year!

Apparently it is AusPost staff picnic day today - an additional public holiday. A lot of workplaces have an additional unofficial public holiday at some point in the year and it looks like AusPost's just happens to give them a extra day off after New Year's.Damn post office is shut

Gah! My beautiful giant AoE Grimlock Cinema Display is coming apart in all this humid weather - the glue is all disintegrating and the cardboard is weakening
I wonder if I can sue Paramount for emotional distress
