Guns and Prime armor are both 5mm pegs.

 

Yeah, but a lot of times pegs and peg holes that are supposed to be interchangeable get drilled slightly off. That's happened to me so many times. so I'm mostly hoping they didn't screw it up this time

 

Drilled holes? Aren't they all injection molded?

 

I meant on the mold itself that they're using.

 

Yes.

And it isn't just a single $25 purchase. I'm looking to possibly get two of them. One for Punch and the other for Counterpunch.

 

Kids are definitely expensive. Especially when you're a lower middle class family in the USA.

I don't want anyone to feel sorry for me AT ALL. What I'm about to say is a first world problem. There are people who are much, much worse off than me. And I hope everyday that God helps them.

But, when your wife loses a high paying job over a year and a half ago, spends 8 months unemployed and looking for a job, finds one that pays ALOT less than she was earning before, and as a result, your financial situation is an a absolute nightmare, you can understand why I'm in this current situation.

As a result, we're now in the process of filing bankruptcy. And I'm trying with all of my strength to hold onto a hobby and a very small collection that makes me extremely happy and is helping me get through this stressful and depressing time.

Then you can understand why $50 may not seem like a very big deal to most collectors even though it is to me. But, my hobby budget is nonexistent and collecting is a crutch that is helping me through a very tough time.

 

Thanks my friend. I'm happy to hear that you're financially stable. But, I know first hand about being homesick. I've been living in a state 800 miles away from my home state for the last 15 years and the homesickness is still there everyday.

Thanks. I appreciate it. Hope I can score P/CP.

Also, I want to apologize to my fellow boardmembers for pulling this thread way off topic.

Please resume.

 

I'm originally from Sacramento, but joined the army in 2002 so I know what it's like to miss home, but after the last few years I got some perspective and when I retired I could have moved my family anywhere but picked Texas as my home.

 

What feet? Some of the car roof and windshield fold into the leg but he's got no real "feet".

 

The con mode has little nubs that barely count as feet. I will probably rotate the waist for autobot mode so he has feet as well.

 

The original toy from the 1980's had two separate sets of arms and hands.

 

Not sure if this has been said, but when I look at the mold I can see it being reused for Pointblank with a little retool.  Punch head without face mask.  Counterpunch upper body.  Punch lower body.  Put a spoiler or wing on the altmode.  

 

For those in Oz, this is now available to order from Amazon Australia for $37AUD + shipping (or free ship if your order over $49).

Thanks! Still a bit pricey for a deluxe though
