    Enh. Prolly the wrong place to post it, but I haven't been sufficiently motivated to set up a personal webserver. (And I have no idea where else you'd post something like this.)

    So. I sent Shinobi77 a box of loot last week, and he IM's me to say that he didn't get the Requiem Blaster that comes with Energon Magnus. Duhrr. This is me going downstairs, fairly certain I know where it is.

    Go to the compy desk and start to turn left

    I think I left it in the Huggies box with the tag. (Freakin' toddler necessities...)

    The tag that says "Primals". Yeah, that one.

    D'oh. Not here. Just a couple Rodimus Primals and a cracked watch.

    Gotta be in the box behind the comic boxes. The OTHER box marked "Primals".

    To reply to the inevitable questions:

    - 15. Last I counted anyway.

    - Yeah. The peg fits in the screwholes in the elbow joints. Arm-mounted heavy weaponry FTW.

    Gundams are high-tech coathangers. I swear there's more every time I leave the light off for a few days...


    And yeah, d'oh, I forgot that why would be inevitable :redface2:  But that's a bit longer of an answer.

    Short version: cheap, fun, standard peg holes. PMOP guns.

    Long version: I saw the toy on store shelves and wrote it off. Then my brothers gave him to me as a b-day gift, and I couldn't put him down. He went from off the List to Top Five Favorite TFs. This amazed me to no end, so I started looking around for a second one. I found a flea market dealer with $5 incomplete primals, and I kinda got hooked on finding them cheap. Now it's a sub-hobby.

    edit: :lol  @ scalper!
