    It's insane we got all these guys (and more!) updated to perfection within one year. It really is 1987!

    I appreciate the response!

    The issue I have, is that it's a pre-order item, so for that reason I'm reluctant to order as I don't have a clear date as to when it should arrive by, thus, unsure whether I've been scammed or not.

    Hey, Banjo, I sent you a message about your sales thread, but since I've no idea how to use the message feature, you might not have got it.

    I think that thing is hideous. The colours don't match, it's proportions are all out of whack, the giant bug head makes me want to squish it. And yet I want one... Monsterbot indeed.

    If you didn't want to risk the long slippery slope you totally should have started with an Omnigonix Spinout!
    ;) 

    I made another toy purchase yesterday, one of the smaller Thunderbird 3's (with sound and grabbing glaw action thing) from Tesco for £2.50! I came home and realised I have a £2.50 voucher for Tesco's... Doh! Oh well, I guess that's TB1 getting picked up in the future then... and if I have the correct TB1, TB2 (and 4) and TB3 I wonder how long it'll be until I crack on that Tracey Island if I see it on sale too? D:

    Oh! And I sent the last available 2017 UKTD Calender out to @craftsmith gratis. And a secret something to @RobotoChan to say thanks for picking up Bisk for me from Japan. Foster that goodwill eh?

    Mmm. Bisk.

    Ah shit dude, it's there but somehow marked up as read. Probably my mistake when I was sifting through lots of sales stuff. Will get back to you in a sec.

    image.jpeg I live in a World where I have pocket-sized Phase Sixers and these Guys.

    That's a pretty sweet world. Except for the enviro-lightbulbs that fuck the light up. Can't have everything I suppose.

    It's only the sheer heavyweight awesomeness of the current TR/Generations Line that keeps this from being the only Line I would collect going forward. Good going Hasbro.

    Yep, I was in there today too, apparently the next TF delivery they're expecting is in early February so I wouldn't expect anything soon unfortunately.

    Oooog. How big is that? It's properly tickling my nostalgia bone. If only he had a black toy head! Then I'd find it difficult to resist. Like the mighty Terry Crews said, 'Once you go black, you're gonna need a wheelchair!'

    What?

    Oooo... so only marginally smaller than G1 Slag... I think I may have to wait for a toy head version though, and you know one is gonna come out... maybe even with a clear dino head?
