Indeed, reviews I've seen of Starscream and others have shown that whilst the Takara Metallic paint looks brilliant, it can also break the unification of colours on the figure so yeah; depending on price and whether the figure looks good, I might actually get 1 or 2 more of them.

Nice choices indeed! I like how Blitzwing's tank mode looks like something outta Metal Slug, and like you say he's just a great triple-changer with loads of play value for the small fries. He and Lugnut are quite the team.
I hope to try and acquire Lugnut, Starscream & Ldr Megs this week; I don't think I'll be getting any of the Autobots as it's the Decepticons that were/are the major thing that appeals to me with Animated, so Sunstorm and Blackout might be in my sights down the line.

I'll keep the Animated theme going with today's purchase - I think I got quite lucky with this one as I found it in the first game shop I checked, and they only had about 20-30 DS games in total. Aaand here it is folks:

Hope it's good!
Hehe, I've played that game; it's not too bad but it's nothing terribly great either ; It aims itself at a specific audience and I think it certainly achieves what it set out to do in that regard.

Aww...

Was there a lot of the Japanese stuff Valkyrie?
(That's my current focus but I keep deviating from it... )
