    Just recieved Legends Slugslinger from Kapow, though he has to be put away for a bit as he's actually my valentine's present from my girlfriend.

    Eternal thanks to the Lovely Orbital. Now that I'm spent out this month I believe, as our @Seeaich would put it, this is when Kapow will put up the orders for Wave 2.

    Welly Jelly, Motorpope, though the itch for these fellas has subsided it persists. My money's on the weekend/next week, once the general stock from these latest arriving preorders has gone up and had it's chance to tantalise, but when it comes to betting I'm often great at backing the wrong horse so it may be that you are on the money!

    So, MFT Green Suit (and Springah) have leapfrogged KOBattles and arrived first.

    It'll be worth the wait, it's a fantastic figure.

    Got a response. They're down some staff due to a bereavement (not Andy). So there may de a couple days delay for pre-orders. They should get them sent by Friday.

    I want Legends Blitzwing because it'll replace by Thrilling 30 guy, and because the Hasbro megs version was plety solid. Went for Legends because I preffered the colours to the Hasbro one. Also Shuffler.

    Mystery solved! Sadly, one of the biggest bummers of a reason. What a shitter.

    Finally got myself this guy and he was more solid than I thought in combined mode, though limited in articulation (virtually none)

    £65 from B&M Bargains

    I also want a Blitzwing

    It's her gift to me, not from me. I'm getting her some retro Polly Pocket styled stuff. Slightly awkwardly, I had to order Slugslinger myself and hand it over to her until the 14th. Did grab myself Titanmaster Ptero alongside him, and Ptero is not bad himself.

    Anyone without a Megatron or OP in their collection? I just realized I only own the TFCC Pretender Optimus inner bot, and no Megs whatsoever.

    ...and you’ve just made me realise I have neither. How does THAT happen?!

    I’d like to get GCreation’s OP, but not for £130, especially as I wouldn’t transform him.

    I'm the opposite - I have gazillions of the pair of them! I could fill a couple of detolfs with just Prime/Megs on their own...

    They are a bit good. Enjoy!

    And because the Cosmic Balance of the Universe has to be maintained this is instructive of just how slow SAL Postage has gotten lately from Japan......use only if you have Saint-level patience.

    Two days to leave the shop, seven days to get out of the bloody Post Office. Not exactly speedy is it.

    I wondered what those three empty pegs were next to the Prime Masters when I was up there getting my comics an hour ago.

    And in delivery news: "THE CALL HAS BEEN HEEDED!"
