Ah, the days when 3P seemed like the only chance we'd ever get for a non-vintage lineup of our red gold and grey squad of ultimate badasses!



Seems like such a long time ago now. Freezing my ass off in the Spiderswamp in the middle of the Endless Forest on the Far Side of the World.

Life be strange, yo.

But with these cool energy swords for the POTP's premier O.G. prehistoric pandemonium pentad, produced by pretty prolific super repro sculptor Spurt Reynolds, these odd new days are made now brighter!

If only by a handful of photons, in the warm and busy night.



Can't see them all lined up without thinking of one of my absolute favourite Senior panels of All Time:



(Happy Saturday, Threadizens!)

 

^Nice, Victory.

This is my favourite dinobot memory... <3

 

Loving this guy.

The gold eyes are fantastic, really good update for a character that Hasbro most likely won't do anything with.

 

Which of course we saw shortly before we read Victory, love that pic!

 

You leave 2 weeks and suddendly Tom Sciolli does robots comic again.

 

Just wanted to chime in on the comic dinobot love... avatar says it all  

Still debating what to pick up at TFN.

 

Likewise, not sure what TFnation has in store for me this year. My birthday is not long before so I have asked for money towards the weekend from family so will have something to put towards. I did have quite a long list going but seems to be changeable and only now consist of:

Fanstoys koot
Fansproject recoiler & riftshot (no chance)
TR misfire & slugslinger

But will have to see what, if anything else, takes my fancy...

As many of us will have, I also have a couple of items to pay for/pick up from @tikgnat and @kgorman79.

I have the g2 ladybird style book on order. Maybe add a convention exclusive figure to the list, just cos’...

I will also be bringing with me the following to get signed:

Ladybird books 1-4 - mike Collins
Collected comics Man of iron - mike Collins
Maybe also the two issues of crisis of command that mike did...
Wreckers collection (if it is out?)- nick Roche
Sins/Requiem of the wreckers - nick Roche
Rid boxed Megatron - Daniel Riordan
Rid dvd box set - Daniel Riordan
Tf the movie soundtrack - Stan bush
Possibly mp01 - Aaron archer
My “Transformation” books (so assuming he is at TFnation, I can ask Stuart Webb to sign these - if anyone knows what he looks like!?)

And I have written myself a reminder to bring along the OSKO powerglide I owe @Decepticreeps100

 

totally agree with you. never really got this prime but when I got the set over 10 years ago where the fists retract, made me appreciate it more, and the apex armour is a fun addition.

 

Bloody hell Andy, you’ve got a very similar list to me - bringing my childhood ladybird books to get signed by Mike Collins, soundtrack for Stan Bush, and one of @kgorman79’s books too. Might have a look at Downbeat, or MMC Frumble/Ravage.

 

I am currently going through the same thing... it’s interesting that I got some of what I wanted last year, and some unexpected bonus items. Did pick up the convention exclusive item but sold that on pretty quick after for the price I got it for.

This year?
Pretenders maybe, though they are still a premium price for the non standard six.
Micromaster bases - though I think the price of these is likely to be higher given the new range coming out.
Mirage/Sunstreaker/Overlord if in excellent condition
If there is an exclusive then maybe. FP severo steelcore would be nice.
G1 minibots reissues.

So not the biggest list and more about if the right things are there at the right price.

 

Still hunting for Countdown at the right price then?

 

You want to go have a look at Kapow then, they often have at least one exclusive

Personally my list so far includes

Turbomasters Hurricane and Flash
3P Bumblebee/Centurion that turns into a locomotive
MMC Thunderclash
CW Liokaiser (give Leozack some limbs)
POTP Pretenders from wave 2 and 3, (Only 100% bothered about the wave 2 and Bombburst though)

Maybe UW Technobots and POTP Terrorcons, also a pretender or two. There are always extra bots I pick up outside my main shopping list

 

Always!

 

If your UW Technobots become a YES instead of a maybe, maybe send me a PM for a chat    

 

Ooh tfn lists, not much I’m after this year

Wants:
The exclusive tf ladybird book
Legends outback
POTP wreck gar
Bumblejumper
Gobot cykill
Gobot crasher (black)
Gobots power suits
Red bumblebee

The few g2 and Japanese figures I’m missing


Maybe:
Fanshobby archenemy
Cyber battalion shockwave

 

Kapow have Liokaiser on sale if you weren’t aware.
Transformers Combiner Wars Liokaiser Gift Set - Kapow Toys

 

Off to London to see Harry Potter and the Cursed Child. This should be interesting.

 

Slowly shedding weight, pre-TFN.

Any interest in these four chaps for 20 quid shipped? Salvage has a stress mark on his bed and Sideways has some clear plastic broken where the windows swivel [does not affect transformation as they are still encased].

Cheers

 

some dude just offered me a SDCC Primal without his throne and box for 20 quids. Guess who is snagging that on first sight.

 

Liokaiser is £60 again on Kapow Transformers Combiner Wars Liokaiser Gift Set - Kapow Toys
