    So after my "$18, I wouldn't pay that!" comment (a pathetic attempt at convincing myself that I had any kind of self control when it comes to the purchasing of transforming bits of plastic), I trotted across to Coles to pick up a late dinner. Oh, it's late night shopping I think. *brain starts ticking* Maybe I should see if Target has a Commander Starscream. You know, just to look at it. Ever said that to yourself? Five minutes later and your grabbing every Starscream on the shelf, examining each one like you're John Benjamin with a rare diamond ring on Antiques Roadshow. It's bought. And then you're so excited with your purchase (which you never intended to actually buy of course) that when you do buy your late dinner, you leave your credit card in the machine at Coles. >_<*

    I think Starscream owes you a hug after all that.

    Surely we've all been there!

    I've picked these up over the last week after telling myself that the only TFPrime toy I would pick up would be Wheeljack. Self control, bah!

    Don't feel too bad bro, after my rant here I went out and bought Optimus and Megs. I've now had another epiphany that OTCA is really AA for Transformers collectors. Admitting we have a problem is the first step

    MWahahahahaahahahah!!!! and so begins 5FDPs descent.....


    Well, Im just a bit sad coz my most accessible Target stores are sooooooooo slow in getting anything (the TF shelves was bare) so I had to settle in getting some fix at Kmart - which thankfully has some Vehicons. So ive got a total of 6 now . Still hoping to spot Screamer, Megs and Bulky.... hopefully on a sale coz yeah - kinda steep priced aren't they for such small figures- they should've been just oh $10 max really. Siiigh

    Hello everyone, My name is UltraMarginal, I'm a Transformers collector.

    Seriously guys, stop deluding yourselves, I always knew I'd be getting all the cyberverse figures, they are great desk toys. I just didn't realise I'd be getting all the legions in the space of 2 days.
    having bought bulkhead last night, it's going to be difficult waiting for the other 3 commander class figures to arrive at Big W or Kmart where I know they'll be at least a couple bucks cheaper.
