This is probably only the 5th or 6th time I've found a TF at an op-shop in 5+ years of semi-regular looking.
Got Cheetor and Blackarachnia... first time I've ever purchased Robot Heroes.
Couldn't find Acid Storm today but not fussed as he's not joining the Classics line-up anyway the way Onslaught and Silverbolt are.
Still undecided on opening Galvatron as he is stupidly too small and, as Supreme Deity of the Diggerverse that I am, haven't decreed yet that this homage to his G1 self is good enough.
My first Marvel Tf's. Spidey was in the Spidey stuff and Venom was with Hulk and Iron Man in the Hulk stuff.
A second MP04 Convoy just because I could. My other one was from the original production run so this one will probably stay MISB for a while.
Now it's time to rip Silverbolts and Onslaughts boxes wide open!
My Galvatron's limbs popped out of their sockets too. Mainly the right arm and one of the legs. He should have been an Ultra Class figure or a Voyager at the very least. Yet we get an oversized legends figure which is Silverbolt who should have been a deluxe figure. Otherwise I enjoyed Galvatron's conversion.
I also agree that Acid Storm actually looks pretty good in robot mode. Aussie colors. Oi Oi Oi!
Digger, what's the Animated hand-held game like? I wasn't ready to plonk down $35-40 on that thing.

well recently i picked up in the classic universe figures onslaught,powerglide,octane,sunstreaker and prowl but i cant find acid storm, galvatron or silverbolt any where. I live in a back packers in the city but my gf lives in belrose and the only place i really get ot go to uncle petes at warringha mall but i tried looking at target there and the other shops but sadly no luck. If any one knows of any where thats easy to get to in the sydney area that can get them please tell me also if any one sees ironhide,blue streak or side swipe aswell please let me know.
Wow. Nice Gok. As always, a well of knowledge you are.
Stopped by a BigW on my way home from work today, and after a bit of searching (their TFs toys were not all in one spot), I found the three that I was after - Acid Storm, Galvatron, Silverbolt.
Silverbolt was almost disappointingly simple to transform - I like Gen1 homages, but they didn't need to do a homage to its easy transformation.
Acid Storm - I have more of this mould than I can recall offhand, but it is still fun to play with and transform with each one I get. Still not bored with it yet...
Galvatron - Nice tank mode, and a pleasingly unique transformation for a smallish tank Transformer. Bit fiddley though, and needed to refer to the instructions to fix up the gun arm without wanting to force it or break it (QC lately makes me fearful of breaking something with too much force). Gotta try doing up its third mode now (Takara actually engineered a third 'mode' as a homage to the G1 cannon mode but Hasbro were so unimpressed, they didn't want it included as a mode in the finished product. The parts and joints used only in that mode were not removed though, and apparently can still be transformed into that third mode).

And just so I don't seem evil by keeping you guys in suspense...
