    I have been wanting this for a long time but shipping costs made it prohibitive. Thankfully I found an auction with decent shipping and went for it:

    Hard Hero Rhinox!



    Thankfully the figure was undamaged on the way. As always happens to me with anything Beast Wars I import, customs opened the box and made a mess of it. They ripped open the statue box but thankfully they did not damage the inner foam and therefore the statue.

    Welcome to the Club! It's a very exclusive club, I think it's you, me and Sharky!

    How badly damaged was the box? Cos that's bloody disgraceful of Customs!

    But enjoy the Statue! It's the 1st thing I look at when I'm back home.

    That really is a stunning statue Kup and I should be ashamed that I don't own one but I'm also very glad that it made it to you without any damage in the process.

    Cheers dude, I have been trying to fill a couple of gaps here and there with my G1 figures; I mean, there are gaping holes but I try to grab good deals when and where I see them.
    I'm also extremely happy to now own both Euro Exclusive Transmetal Beast Wars figures, Spittor being my first MOSC BW figure in over a decade so that is quite a thing for me.

    Today's photos are of an acquisition made late yesterday, courtesy of Llamatron via LordCyrusOmega:

    Beast Wars Neo, Predacon - Dead End

    Here are some DOTM Human Alliance purchases I got from US. USPS Priority Mail International - arrived two weeks after purchase.

    Human Alliance Roadbuster - red 88



    Human Alliance Roadbuster - red 88 with white surrounds.



    Variations on Roadbusters

    - red 88 on its fenders has NASCAR logo and on the door banner - it has the Nextel NASCAR circular logo

    - red 88 with white surounds on its fenders has Nextel NASCAR circular logo but no sticker on the door banner.

    Very interesting the variations. Similar to RTS Starscream as one has a black head and the other silver.

    Backing on both Roadbusters



    Human Alliance Leadfoot



    I'm walking away from Transformers. Check out my sales thread
