    You can still order them from Oh My Primus. I had to wait a while for a restock but considering he cost less than the average deluxe these days, even including postage, it's definitely more than worth a punt :D

    Saw that on the Kapow FB feed - having missed out originally I'm totally in for these. Now to look out for the original G1 bots too - those FansHobby 3rd party ones were simply amazing but just too big!

    Was somebody in these boards selling a Legends Doublecross now that long ago...?

    I try to help in the Metal Build Thread over at the toyark with Kapow's listing of the Eva figure...and a guy immediately jumps on me with a sarky response of how Kapow don't ship to the US.

    FFS :rolleyes: :oops:

    It's part of the No More Tours 2 thing and will be the first time seeing both live for me :) 

    Had a message from Kapow today saying the Lynx part of MMC Sky Lynx has been posted so that should be here tomorrow along with my PS4 & Spiderman from Amazon.

    @Knightdramon,
    I was selling the LG Doublecross but it went pretty quickly.

    Yeah, the body is absolutely sublime. Protip: slap a spare titan master on there, stick the original head in a drawer. I've got TM Brawn on him, but Loudmouth and Clobber also work well.

    What is going on with amazon and import fees. It used to be an item was under £15, no import fees.

    Now there are import fees on everything, regardless of price!

    I wonder if some slipshod 'reading dollars as pounds' accounting at Her Maj's Bum-probers is leading to Amazon covering their arses? If you don't get hit it'll be refunded. Might be worth starting a help query though?
    I have my suspicions that Big Evil may have done a Footstamp of the Walmart variety, and pressured Hasbro to embargo the etailers' street date (hence the November release date on RK, etc.) for a two month exclusive sales run. Just a theory, of course.

    For those who haven't seen it Burt's Spot-On pisstake of Brando in 'The Twilight Zone':

    Crank the volume up to max for this.



    Man, as much as I love Jablonkskey's scores, I also wish the tf movies had used some proper heavy metal music. Embrace the 80's, embrace the music, embrace the carnage.


    I've lost the plot tonight.

    And studio series starscream is fucking gorgeous in alt mode.

    How close to £15 is the item, they might be taking a precaution about any exchange rate shift? If it's well under, I dunno. I have had at least one Amazon purchase refund for Import fees, I got £11 quid back from the fee amount for CW Devastator, so don't ask me how the frig that worked but good luck slipping under that bar!

    Second updoot: Email not received, will be nagging them more tomorrow.

    Unfortunately I also got booted form the new job for not being fast enough (Barely any warning either, that's Zero-hour contracts for you), so Saturday is not robots day. Will probably pop out at some point next week when no-one's home to judge me for spending a little cash while on Universal Credit.
