    >:3 Should have done a proper SWOT-analysis on that.

    Bwahahahaaaa >:3
    Not particularily. But some people ask for it.

    And that's quite a feat given what he's been known to do?

    :) 

    Nope, not at all but some risk it. And find out what the 'risk' part means.

    =3

    As it shouldn't :3

    He'll frag you up instead.


    Rant coming in or vent comic.

    I feel ya, Fez. Aren't Euros and dollars at roughly similar exchange rates? If so, yikes, y'all are getting gouged.

    Thanks for making this. lol Really goes to show that most American collectors can act pretty spoiled when it comes to prices especially when we have so much better in comparison to other parts of the world.

    Euros usually got more value than dollars. So... sure does equal even more delight over on this.

    I have to admit, I do gringe quite a bit whenever I listen to podcast hosts whining about the 'expensive prices' or 'bad deals' they get when its prices I would wish over her <_< And only once or twice I heard'em sorta acknowledge how it sucks even more here. Glad to see I'm not the only one seeing this though.

    while I don't think prices being here is a problem where I am, but yeah, it a pain that most of the stores that actually stock transformer toys only have one narrow self so I know how that feels

    I hate prices nowadays but you guys over in Europe and other places have it rough. Applause for dealing with this real world issue man and greatly too! Hands down this is amazing work.


    Edit: SOMEONE GET ME A PLANE TICKET TO THE PHILLIPINES I AM GOING TO POP SOME TABS. If you can get that many transformers for such a low price, COUNT ME IN B*TCHES.

    Edit edit:
    never mind. Those prices are WAY to high for any thing. America has it lucky with only $15 Deluxe. :(

    Welcome to the toy market business, LEGOmen. Hope you survive the experience... if you can survive Fez Findie's amphibious assault on your sorry plastic keisters first.

    On one hand. On the other, I think you'll find Death by Z'Gok Claws a merciful alternative to eyeing the price tag Titans Return Trypticon has on his robo-dinosaur city tail...

    You know, when I say that I don't mind paying $20 for a Deluxe Class figure or $30 for a Voyager Class figure, this is my justification, here. Some people have to pay twice as much as we do for a Deluxe Class Bumblebee or Windblade or whoever.

    that is some extreme price gouging. Ouch

    On the other hand I do miss when Deluxes were ten bucks but can't do much about it which is why I'd rather buy from collectors

    Wait

    Findie, if trypiticon or similar size is 130.00 roughly here, how much is it over there? Do I even want to know?

    ................. I think I need to know now TT

    Good to have sympathy.

    See? Also, the Philippines got a bit of a crackpot for a president according to a friend from over there. And been even on Finnish tabloids but enough about that.

    Yeah, that price tag would squash'em.

    Glad to see someone on that side of the world not being a whiny little beatch over your 'unreasonable' prices.

    I would bet 199 euros... and then put it on sale AFTER I buy it.

    If they can't take it out on each other then they'll just take it out on the nearest passerby... In this case, a little NERD!

    :lol  Oh dear, poor Fixit. At least he'll know not to give them ideas next time, or at least not stand so close while doing it.

    Alas poor Fixit. Goes to stop a fight only to learn the typical culture of Findie Culture. Hopefully the hitting on the head is the only thing that's done to you. Let's also hope that, that head banging doesn't leave you with a glitch issue like on the cartoon or worse.....

    you become unable to say anything other than beeps, boops and turn into an orange R2 D2

    Ah, poor Fixit. This is what he gets for trying to help these two Decepticreeps with their dispute.

    Gotta take it out somewhere :D 

    A life of pain and dumbness?

    Yah, its like standing near a bomb.

    :lol  Typical Findie Country culture? Is it now all about fun violence and such? :D 

    No good deed goes unpunished?

    =3

    Well, he intervened, and that always has its risks.

    A week or two late, this one but ah well.I know been filler but I'm cooking up the next major arc in head yet, slowly buildin' it up.

    Valve Announcement 2017 Reaction

    I really found it amazing how much in synch the audience was in that video.

    DoomPrime shares his sentiments, people of Findie Country. Whatever little hope for Valve we have left is completely and tracelessly disintegrated by this one little announcement that basically is Gabe and his old guard crew saying "We're jumping in the TCG bandwagon with Artifact: The DOTA Card Game." No thanks, folks. I'm quite happy enough with Magic: The Gathering (with Transformers fan cards, of course) and Yu-Gi-Oh!. If that isn't a clear sign it's the beginning of the end and you should be at home playing DooM or Quake instead, I'll be a Cyberdemon's twin brother if I know what is.

    As for Yuffie the Ninja... let's say you and I both jump this sinking battleship and play some Final Fantasy VII on the Playstation OR the PC (your pick, Sister Shinobi). Meanwhile, one of Cyberspace's nastiest hackers alive this side of Citadel Station is warming up to do some serious Game Development Hell gravedigging in Valve - their way... because let's face it, femmes and gentlemechs: if 20+ years of waiting and waiting and waiting for Half-Life 3 only to run head-first into this bone of contention of an announcement isn't signal enough for you to sever ties with Valve for good with a chainsaw and drool for iD's DooM VFR and Quake Champions or even have mindless brain-blasting fun mowing through the hordes of horrors in Strafe and Dusk instead, again, I'll be one of Shub-Niggurath's Thousand Young if I know what is.

    (Which makes one ask the burning question: Is this how Duke Nukem felt when he was having fun blasting fiends in Development Hell?)
