    MEGAZARAK: Hello Garboil. Who's your friend with the bling?

    GARBOIL: Detective Sergeant Garboil to you, Zarak. This is... <sigh>... Nut Convoy - he's helping me with an investigation.

    MEGAZARAK: A Convoy, eh? Better watch your back, Convoys don't live too long around these parts.

    GARBOIL: Is that a threat?

    NUT CONVOY: I think it's a statistic...

    GARBOIL: Quiet, Nutcase. Killed any Convoys recently, Zarak? Those are some sharp weapons you have there. Sharp enough to stab a bot. To death. Twice.

    MEGAZARAK: Sharp wea... You mean my knife and fork?

    GARBOIL: You call them knife and fork. I call them Exhibit A and Exhibit B.

    MEGAZARAK: I'm a tank, Detective Sergeant. Do you seriously think that if I wanted Flash dead I would stab him with my cutlery?

    GARBOIL: Maybe you wanted to throw me off the scent.

    MEGAZARAK: I couldn't even throw you far enough to get you on the scent.

    GARBOIL: Then you... Are you eating a polar bear?

    NUT CONVOY: Polurkey.

    GARBOIL: Po... what?

    NUT CONVOY: It's a polurkey. A polar bear genetically crossed with a turkey. It's a delicacy.

    GARBOIL: Does nobody eat anything normal around here? Well if it wasn't you, Zarak, who was it?

    MEGAZARAK: If I were you, I'd question Sky Shadow's next acquisition.

    GARBOIL: You'd what?

    MEGAZARAK: Well it seems obvious to me that you're going to spend the next few episodes showcasing Sky Shadow's new toys. Today I'm wearing the Air Military X-Dimension Micron team, tomorrow it'll probably be some other needlessly obscure recolour, so you might as well just go with the flow.

    GARBOIL: <sigh> Fine. Don't leave town. Let's go, Nutsack.

    NUT CONVOY: Nut Convoy.

    GARBOIL: Whatever.

    Bargain of my year? Purchased Transformers The Movie on BluRay for $10.40 at JB Hifi tonight during their 20% off sale. The stickered price was higher but it scanned it at just $13.

    They're having a Family and Friends night where every DVD and CD is 20% off cost price, yes the cost price not the marked price!
    That is, the Wollongong store is anyway.

    I know I'm gonna cop a bit for this acquisition but... meh Bought an AFA case for my Megatron box which I purchased from 1AZRAEL1 last month. I figured the thing has survived for almost 30 years; this gives it the best chance to last another 30




    Yes, I know it's an empty box

    i think you need a good hard look at yourself an empty box in a display case... go stand infront of the mirror and ask yourself... why have i not got myself a loose megatron to fit into this one hell of a sexy box...

    now i dont want to see another aquisition from you young man until that hole in the foam has been filled....:P

    in all seriousness.. that was a wonderful looking box, now atleast it will stay that way... how much did the case cost if you dont mind me asking???

    Yeah, I know. I'm sick and need help

    I do actually have a loose Megs however he's in my display case standing opposite Prime. If I put him in the box, it will screw up the aesthetics of my display case and I can't afford another Megs to replace him.

    The case was bought from AFA's eBay store and cost approx. $50. Shipping was about the same. Their obviously custom made to fit and they come in the following styles - '84 Autobot cars, '84 Decepticon jets, '84 Prime, and '84 Megatron. They also have cases for combiners e.g. Constructicons, however these are a very poor fit and the cards will slide around inside.

    **Word of warning** - if you (or anyone) are thinking of buying one, its best that the flap of the box is as straight as possible. If it isn't, it's near impossible to make it fit as there is an internal 'holder' which the flap has to sit under and you wouldn't be able to stick your hand in there to maneuver it into position.

    Mine was not that cheap but I still better than the original price. Also picked up Breacher from Target for $10 instead of $18 due to the sale starting tomorrow.

    Hey thats a nice case, makes the box display even better! Now the challenge is getting it out if you ever get a another megs to go in there! I've given up trying to get my ones out that I put in the sliding bottom cases!

    Damn, that's a very very nice box, don't care if its empty. Kudos for obtaining it. If I were in AU, I would have fought you in a sandpit blindfolded for it... MIB Megatron is one of the most cherished pieces in my collection.

    Wow! It's an empty AFA Graded box!

    *bids $5,000*

    It may be an empty box but it's AFA Graded and that's all that counts
