Probably cost too much, but there ya go.

[Peter Peeker]

got that page bookmarked [img]biggrin.gif[/img]

that's a pretty good price on the AVP stuff.
although I wish they'd do singles instead of sets... [img]graemlins/cry.gif[/img]

the Spartans are pricey, but considering each comes with a vehicle, I guess it ain't so bad.

and all 4 vehicles combine into one big one. [img]biggrin.gif[/img]

[Darkest Angel]

...wish I could still get that excited about a toy line that...you know...still exists... [img]frown.gif[/img]

[Peter Peeker]

well, step into the Micro-World, Sir Demon...

[Darkest Angel]

I give you guys a lot of shit about the Micros, just 'cause I can...they are actually pretty cool, but they don't do it for me, you know? I am getting kinda burnt out on anything I don't make myself, lately, to tell the truth. I might just have to buy a case of WWE figures and make a barbarian horde or somethin'...

I am looking forward to some of the new TF stuff coming out, but Hasblo has gotten so slow in releasing new product...got my Joe three packs in the mail, but dang...now I have to haunt Hasbro online just to buy them? That's pretty annoying. I like the Street Fighter figures, but all the variants and whatnot are just buggin'...*sigh*. It'll pass. Something really, really cool will come out and I will be excited to be collecting again...some day... right?

[Peter Peeker]

of course.
*pats DA consolingly on the knee*

you seen the Cybertron figs yet? I thinnk that's the line. new ones, anyway.
Starscream is friggin' HUGE!
$70 at out TRU. [img]eek.gif[/img]

Optimus is slightly smaller (and cheaper), and boy, he looks great.
and I'm not even a real TF fan.


I wish I'd snagged that ver 1 Soundwave when I had the chance.
really regret getting rid of him many moons ago. [img]graemlins/cry.gif[/img]

[Darkest Angel]

Yeah, I was referring to Cybertron, actually. Have not physcially seen any of the big 'uns, but I think you Canucks actually got them a wee bit earlier than us, for once. I really want that Starscream, but I dunno. Think he's gonna be around $50 US. Prime and Megatron I will be getting, eventually, I'm sure. They have some nice pics at Hasbrotoyshop.com

Oh, and speaking of, the Zartan figure they made is very nice, but much too orange. Repaint is pending.

I was never really into the original TFs, I actually started collecting during the Beast Wars era a few years ago. The red Megatron dragon was the one that really got me into them. The last couple of series, Armada and Energon, I kinda was less into. I think I bought 2 Armada figures, one of which went straight into the closet never to be seen again, he was just that bad. Bought several Energon figures, and I love my Energon Shockblast (Shockwave, they lost rights to the original name), but I had to buy two so he could have two good arms. I really ought to take some more pics of my various customs and kitbashes...maybe I will get on that this weekend.

[Peter Peeker]

yes, pics would be good.

and I think you'll be getting that Starscream when you see it.
hell, I almost did.

as for the old ones, I loved Soundwave and all his tapes, and Bumblebee too, which we'll never see again.
in his proper version, anyways, thanks to VW. [img]graemlins/hmmm.gif[/img]

[Darkest Angel]

...I have a Bumblebee keychain, actually. Just like the original, but with a wee loop on his bumper for the keychain. Kinda geeky/cool.

Only problem with 'Scream is gonna be the price. The truck is giving me shit again, so we shall see whether or not I, y'know...eat this month...plus, our contract is up for bid, so I don't know if I will even be employed by the end of the year...blah blah blah.

Plo Koon posted the new upcoming Soundwave in the Morning Coffee a few days ago, didja see?

[Peter Peeker]

I did, but he doesn't transform into a Walkman, so that one doesn't count. [img]wink.gif[/img]
hope all goes well with the vehicle and the job. [img]graemlins/martini.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/beer.gif[/img]
