    Yeah totally agree with your comments on Jazz... he's totally awesome!

    Tracks is a bit ho-hum average tbh
    To me, Tracks looks mistransformed in robot mode. See how the car roof sits over his waist? It's like his whole top torso needs to be dragged upwards so his waist is clearly visible. This would a) look better and b) make him the same height as Jazz & the others.

    Went for a walk after work and got these....

    Note 1: in case you guys are wondering why I go for walks after work (apparently) all the time, its cos my wife generally finished later than me, so I walk around until she is ready for dinner.

    Note: 2: I love that in HK, I can just go around and actually look at stuff, bargain, think about it, and pick stuff up in person. And of course that there are lots of stuff to choose from.

    TF United, wave 1 has hit HK. Not really interested in the 2 Primes, Megatron, Drift and Bumblebee x 02, so I only pickedup Cybertronian Soundwave (for my wife) and Cliffjumper.

    Haul - G1 C9.5 but no accessories Deathsaurus (only AUD$50!!!), RTS Grapple, United Cyb Soundwave and Cliffjumper, Brave version Deathsaurus MIB, complete.

    And.... another G1 MISB jewel... C-100: Doublecross MISB

    Awesome stuff HD! Wish we could just browse and pick from that kind of selection here...

    Not that I won't be getting some united stuff.. but I'm slightly disappointed with that packaging style- too animated and just not simple and nice as the original henkei (boxed) effect which I love. Are those sealed by bubble on card? or like Henkei- because from what it looks like... It will be awkward to display mib/moc?

    Congrats Vector!
    I really dig that figure's Alt mode but, IMO, his Bot mode is only let down by a lackluster head sculpt - If it weren't for that, I'd damn pick one up.

    Congrats on, yet another , awesome set of acquisitions dude , Dezsaras looks a little different in Red - sort of puts a different spin on the character IMO and that Doublecross dude! , what a way to follow up to Perceptor!

    I agree with you on the United packaging. It really looks and feel and "US packaging" and the flap is pretty large too. These are packed like Henkeis are packed, so you can 'reseal' the bubble.

    I like my walks. heh. Deszaras in red was a suprise. On further inspection its actually quite different from G1 Dez because there are metal parts in this one (whereas G1 Dez does not). Overall the quality of red Dez appears to be slightly inferior to G1 Dez though. Red Dez is made in Indonesia?!? (G1 Dez was made in Taiwan, so really, not much better; I guess in the later years, less and less was made in Japan).
