I'm really surprised you had Spittor when you were a kid -- to my knowledge that toy was never released in Australia (though I was living in Japan at the time, so admittedly my knowledge of the early BW stuff that AU got isn't first hand )

Yep, Spittor was definitely here. I got him from Myer Southland.

But I always wanted to get Diver. Still can't find a cheap one.

Very nice! Love the JP BH. The TT versions have got it all over Hasbro.
Only just noticed CC, are they using the plastic ties instead of the paper ones, or do i need to make a trip to Specsavers?

Sweet! They sure look awesome. Particularly spittor, I didn't realise he had clear parts on him?

Spittor is a fantastic figure I think. The plastic isn't that clear except in the thinner parts like the webbing on his hands and a few other areas. Do you like the Transmetal Spittor? I think it's a wicked figure too, I love the hunched back and his head.

Saying that you were a kid during BW makes those of us who grew up w/ G1 feel miiighty old! I'm really surprised you had Spittor when you were a kid -- to my knowledge that toy was never released in Australia (though I was living in Japan at the time, so admittedly my knowledge of the early BW stuff that AU got isn't first hand ) -- they are both great toys, especially Inferno. I took him to meet his voice actor at least year's Smash! convention (Syd).

Haha, sorry man can't lie about my age. Cheer up though, we're all basically big kids here . I got him somewhere in Hobart waaay back when (I don't remember exactly, he was a gift of some description) so I'm pretty sure he was released in Australia!

That's cool that you met his voice actor! He was one of my favourite characters in the show. Inferno definitely sweet. He and Ravage were my favourite Predacon toys.

Finally got a Jazz for my Longblast kit, reallllly want to paint him victory red like a proper Rx-8 but I'm going for a Skyline midnight purple.

Only one issue with the kit, the 'ears' prevent it from rolling in alt mode.

Biggest box I've had from BBTS so far...



Mostly due to the big guy in the back. Springer, Blitzwing and Sandstorm are for my bro, the rest are for me...

Recently received (and not sure if I posted them here!)

Takara Reissue Galvatron, and
Takara Reissue Galvatron II.

Both brand new, and now loose for display. Purpletron is in robot mode, Galvatron II (without the weird gold stickers) in alt mode, near my Masterpieces.

I need to sort out some form of cabinets (and space) for my Masterpieces one of these days...

[griffin]

Hmm... I didn't realise the Grimlock Vs Bruticus set was out now.

Gotta go buy one then.
