August Acquisitions

[blackoptimus]

Received my Japanese releases for July today


Any mis-givings I had when I removed Encore Bruticus from the case and saw the lovely G1 figure were instantly forgotten.


A shot of the cases received.

Nice hall, I wish I could afford that much!

Verrrrrrry happy with my Transformers acquistions over the last two days.

First of all, thanks to canofwhoopass_87 I now have a G1 Gnaw! This guy is incredibly awesome and I'm very excited to have one of my own, hehe.



Another big thanks goes out to Griffin for selling me a set of the legends class ROTF constructicons! These toys are a must have for the movie toy collectors, they're just too much fun (full marks on the packaging too, the Japanese style makes preserving the cardbacks a hell of a lot easier than Hasbro's efforts)!

That is one sweet Gnaw there doubleD. I ve still to buy one , if I could find a cheap enough complete one. Most of the ones I see are dreadfully expensive and with the current KO trend, sigh its becoming dangerous as well....

Technically the toys themselves arrived on 31/7, but I'd rather lump this all together:

Thanks leige! I'm sure you'll find one at the right price one day and then you too can become a member of the sharkticon massive.

I bought my first movie Megatron today in the form of Legends Class Megs (had Bonecrusher & Brawl before but had to add them in the pic for good measure ). Highly average bot mode but the tank mode is most exquisite.



Also happened across the Ice Cream Twins & Jolt! Not really a fan of Jolt, he's just so bland in both alt and bot mode mainly due to his boring colours. If he was, say, bright purple with gold accents he would look awesome.



The twins though? What can I say, these along with Legends Devs are some of the coolest/funnest toys I've ever laid my grubby mits on. Surprisingly complex transformations, great colours, unique alt mode, great paint apps and detailed bot modes...All that and TWO transformers for the price of one. Buy it, buy it, buy it!
