    Seeing as it's Payday tomorrow and (despite strip bar shenanigans) I am still flusher than I have been in some time, I've ordered meself an arsenal from Uncle Billy, directly and via his ebay alt. johosontony.
    I've grabbed a couple of multicolour Gnaw gun sets I can paint cement grey (apart from the business end of the handles) for my sharkieboys, the Dr. Wu 5mm Megs gun I've been eyeballing for aaaaages before finally (ho ho) "pulling the trigger", and a grey/black/red set of Hardhead guns which, depending on how I feel in hand, I may be willing to split the set for someone wanting a pair of a particular single colour out of the three.
    Then as the multibuy for single colour options aren't on his direct site (that I can find, at least) punted a bit extra on the johosontony Ebay store to get 3 x Legend generic pistols in grey plus 4 x Brawn cannons in red (to see if I can improve Max's turrets with 'em)!
    Crossing mah fings!

    Well, it seems the trend of being completely tolerable is continuing!



    Rodimus ditching the Matrix, without telling anyone he was going to, in a bout of existential crisis is pretty on-point G1 toon character-wise! :lol

    You need to go to his ebay.com listings (signed in, usually your .co.uk ID will work) and any item you watch will then be visible on .co.uk on your My Ebay page.

    That's encouraging to hear, my package should be with me tomorrow so I'll see how it goes. I'm really looking forward to Mech Planet's Bumblebee and Cliffjumper so I'd hate it if they turn out to be like XTransbots where their figures look great but are prone to disaster if handled.

    Oh, don't thank me, you might soon be cursing me! Also it's worth checking the price between direct from his site and his ebay listings, it might be pence but it can add up!

    Finished painting NBK Excavator tonight. The little bits make all the difference.

    "Hey Grimlock, remember when you were a big white guy?"
    "What you trying say, Jazz?"

    Ah hell, dumb as the pretenders were, this is definitely a favourite comic of mine. Geoff Senior and Thunderwing in perfect harmony.

    yeah, I'm looking forward to those two. I really hope they do Huffer too, it would be great to have one that isn't an orange Optimus Prime. Imagine that, an official figure that's a placeholder for a third party one:crazy:  :lol

    Also, seeing as how Thunderwing wears a sporran, I imagine him speaking in a Scottish accent. "Ah see you Prime ya wee shite!"
