    Boy, that guy is indeed lying through his teeth. The toy is indeed undeniably fake.

    The reason for the copyright stamp is that the molds used were actually real ones stolen or abandoned from 1980s factories at the end of G1.

    $250USD shipped.
    almost complete but just look at the box. it is, in every sense of the word, amazing.

    guaranteed vintage, if i dont believe it when it arrives, he will refund me.

    i think alright seeing as one last week ended at $405USD plus shipping for one with similar box condition but a bent flap.

    i'm keeping it boxed so i'm not worried about missing gun at this point as i'll have my encore beside it in robot mode.

    Finally got the camera up and running!


    Cylconus is just so freaking awesome!


    I've been wanting these two for a long time now! They'll need new stickers but apart from that they are in top shape!

    Well thank F*** i got my money back today.
    Not all of it unfortunately as i lost out to brutal paypal 4.4% fees but i think sacrificing $35 in fees and worse exchange rate is a small price to pay in order to dodge a bullet.

    hey does the upgraded paypal account have a yearly fee?
    i was given the option to upgrade when i had to accept my refund (guess he used a credit card to repay me) but i didn't want to risk a hidden fee so i just stayed on the normal account for the moment as i didn't want to risk this dude cancelling the refund

    I got the Evolution of a Hero pack from Target today (price reduction making it two-for-the-price-of-one ftw). Haven't opened it, but-I've put it away so I've got something to look forward to at the end of the exam period.

    Got TF G1 More than meets the eye Vol 1 TPB from Phantom zone. NOw just need vol 2. I had the individual issues but they're still left back in Philippines. Also this compiled edition is much easier to use than having to take out the 8 volumes always.
    Wanted AM partner Vanguard, Myclones Dirge, G1 Victory Leo, e-hobby Dark scream ( the black version), e-hobby Magnificus
    Parts- AM partner Basher-side guns, G1 Actionmaster Elite Windmill's blades[I][B]

    It's been a while since I've put some pics so i thought i might spend some time uploading pics of my new TFs this month.

    So this weeks haul for me is:


    Sideswipe, (Blue)streak and Drag Strip from K.wong23; Hound and Ravage from Big W and G1 Roller from my local flea market.

    Im particularly happy about finding G1 Roller, it was one of many things i gave away during my younger stage of giving-away-transformers-because-I'm-too-old. But now im glad i managed to find him for $1, in a box of old Hot Wheels/Matchbox cars at the flea market last Sunday.

    And stuff i got earlier this month from TF76:


    The Constructicons - finally i have them all! No Devastator parts though, but am still happy. I have some doubles but will prob cannibalise parts between others for repair work.
    Also a G1 Prime that i can use to repair my original one.

    Just attend the upcoming Parramatta fair again Optimus1, Our "suki" seller Jaime had some Devastator parts for sale last fair, and no one was buying them. Prolly coz most have complete or have the parts already
