    Default ... I would have waited an eternity for these...

    I thought this deserved its own thread.

    Ultra Magnus knows of this since last week. Also, valkyrie_76 and Hursticon would have know that something was up and would know that I have acquired something(s!) in these past few weeks.

    This is the first of them - one of my ALL time holy grails, some could say, since I was a kid back in 1984.

    I got this as part of a deal involving my Marlboor Wheeljack, for the best price on the planet - free.

    Received yesterday, but thought I would post about it now since there are more things coming(!).

    Introducing MIB Car Robots No.7 (Diaclone) Fairlady Z in blue aka the mythical "blue Bluestreak"...

    Will take more photos of my own later...

    Edit 14 June 2011 - Have updated my blog with the story of this Bluestreak's acquisition.

    This toy isn't a Transformer and this thread needs to be moved to the Non-TF Takara toy acquisition thread!!

    jkz.

    I don't even want to know how much you paid for this toy, but wateva makes you happy. Are you gonna get Bluestreak reprolabels for it? (I totally would) You should repurpose the Diaclone pilot as Augie Chaney... maybe he's decided to join the Autobots in their fight against the Decepticons, especially the Stunticons - and he's wearing a kind of special battle armour.

    Thanks guys for the kind words.

    @ optimus1 - The piece is the most impressive one I have seem thus far. There have been some on sale here in HK and some on auctions, but the condition has always been inevitably terrible. The stickers on this piece is well applied and the joints are all (very) tight.

    It is technically free in the sense that I did not fork out any cash for it, but I will elaborate more when I have sometime later today or tonight on the mechanics of the deal.
