    No. What's next? Every post needs to start with "IMO/IMHO .....".

    Looks like it's business as usual.

    Complete agree with the first few posts. Not necessary if you're in a thread about the toy. Expect stuff about it.

    Understood the concerns but if they were an issue I wouldn't be. In that thread.

    For me, it was a partial peek of what I am getting or is it worth it?
    First off, the colour of Magnus already divided some people which is good as you save money than spending unnecessary.

    The review of how certain joints look are there to keep us to be on your toes not to push certain things too hard.

    Overall spoilers are not spoilers for me. I think those who are misb collectors wouldn't even care either way. Lol

    I think if there was a leaked instruction sheet, it can be its own news posting, but partial images or detailed toy photos that show a lot of the toy and its engineering, can be in its related news topic.... and if you start to see images in a post as you are scrolling down and don't want to risk being spoiled, scroll away from the images before you look hard enough to identify any transformation steps.

    When the time comes when I can afford to host mirrored attached news images on a server, we will have a lot more inserted images, as we rarely have them at the moment... and it gets a bit boring reading through news postings without any piccies to look at.

    I voted 'other' because I like to think of them as a teaser...

    Similar to a movie teaser trailer, all it does (for me anyway) is build the anticipation for the toy and makes me want it more.
