Yeah she is a beautiful repaint.

Kudos to Aaron Archer on that one as he appears to have led the repaint project. Let's hope we get more focused repaints such as this in the future.

It makes a big difference when the designer cares about what he is doing rather than repainting a figure only to make a quick/easy sale which is now all too common.

Finally caved and got Nemesis Prime:

Finally after waiting for such a long time, (besides picking up another Lego Technic from Kmart today) I got home and found a parcel waiting with G1 Blitzwing:

This seems to be a happy photo:


Except looked at the horror when I flipped him upside down:

His freaking wings are missing! And the seller states that "This figure is Loose and is in great condition. Very clean, No broken parts"! Argggh! Don't you just "love" evil-bay? And the fact that he could list "Includes the Gyro-Blaster Rifle, Electron Scimitar and Turret" tells me he couldn't know little about Transformers, argghhh that evil deceiving seller!

I have since lodge a Paypal dispute. No way am I paying $42 for a broken piece like that. evil-bay: love it and hate it.

Yeah unfortunately that sort of thing does happen. The good thing is that you got accessories which will help you out if you find an cheap incomplete figure down the line.

Did it also come with its two small missiles?

Gah. Mel! I hope you've lodged an eBay complaint pronto.

And that Lego set is very nice. I want that too but my pockets tell me otherwise...

[Pulse]

I'm sorry to hear that Mel

I hope Blitzwing didn't break the bank...

[Golden Phoenix]

I feel sorry for you Mel. I'd be so cut if it had happened to me.

In other news I picked up Animated Blitswing from Doncaster Target.
Got some Lego too

[jacksplatt11]

animated blitzwing is out at stores now? hes the only animated figure i want...

and here is starscream (awesome).. one question though, this is the takara version, and with the instructions was a black and white form kinda thing with i guess what looks to be an ID, i cant read japanese so if anyone could enlighten me as to what is it, it'd be much appreciated..











and onslaught (awesome)...


the elastic bands around his legs are to stop them from falling apart, they just don't want to stay together

Hey, had a real bad day at work (hence the time I am posting this) but some luck came out of it. Picked up these toys for under $100 combined.


Reflector (Diaclone) but missing the lens and some missiles I think. But the 3 bots are good condition.


The condition is so so. The white have these brown spots on it.. but mainly bought it because I needed the Pretender bot.

G1 Whirl with complete weapon. Didnt get the chance to get pics of this.

And, one of the ebay sellers sent me a wrong figure and said I could keep this one and they will send me what I won.. so got lucky and for free.


Condition is only C6.5 as there are yellowing otherwise joints are tight and complete with landing gear attachment.
