When you lose a single piece...

One of my excuses for buying doubles.

It's amazing how far some little bits can bounce! I always have this problem with missiles that 'fire' themselves across the room... leaving me with a 2 hour hunt!

+1. I absolutely hate it.

Right now, I'm "missing" an Energon Galvatron missile. It's -somewhere- in my room but I have no idea where. It fired itself and then I put off looking for it b/c I was in mid-transformation w/ Galvatron. Then I jumped online for about 35 mins and then remembered it'd gone missing. Only problem was by that point, I'd forgotten its trajectory so it's somewhere here I just have no idea where.

Any excuse will do, ay...

Any excuse will do, ay...

I don't need excuses. I need justifications.

Hmmmm,

Justification = My wallet felt too "heavy" so I had to lighten it...

I prefer to think that my monetary repository was feeling gravitationally challenged and that necessitated that I alter its compositional balance to reflect a position that indicated my utility

MMMMmmmmmm Understand totally about that loosing parts feeling all too well. Not Only do I have my own collection, being the good father that I am my 9 year old son also has a healthy collection of transformers.

I find myself sneaking in his room when he is not home going through his pile of toys trying to find all his TF’s , TF’s guns & missiles etc. He thinks I’m crazy. He knows it gets to me if they are all not in order or can’t find something the little bugger lol. Please Ozfomer dads tell me I’m not alone.

k.wong, I totally feel your pain...

Case in point:
Have a EMS package from F2F that's been on the way to me for about 5 weeks now, and lo and behold - I contact them asking them why has it been in customs for 3 weeks now, they go off, investigating, then yesterday they call me and say that they can't find the package over here. Yes, you've lost a piece of Soundwave - with a chance of finding him... Aus Post on the other hand has lost... a whole package. Sh!t!

Happy belated birthday, btw!

But yeah- keep looking around - like behind the table etc - UNDER the printer ... cause it'll turn up! (don't throw away the packaging of the printer!)

May be a dumb question, but have you looked around in a larger area? I've found missiles, weapons and even G1 fists over 6 feet away, in different rooms from my display area, and that was before I had the kittens around.

Check shoes, and the very edges of shelves and furniture as well, sometimes items can fit very snugly up against them.
