    Thanks! Uhhh cut off date for pictures is theoretically December... which is when I'll get these printed. But the earlier the better really, so I can settle on pictures and their order as soon as.

    The general rule is 6 Autobot themed pics, and 6 Decepticon themed pics, to go with the relevant faction.

    Also, Hacker has arrived! Cheers man!

    I am interested in this castle business. I never really thought about it before, but now I must know!

    I'm still unpacking and sorting things, and I came across these guys. I'd completely forgotten that I even had them! They need a proper clean and some repro labels, but it was still nice to discover them again. 20180913_163445.jpg

    The red Sunstreaker and Mirage are based on their Diaclone decos, iirc Sunstreaker is his standard retail colours (he got turned yellow for Transformers) and the red Mirage was was only available in a rare multipack with pre Ultra Magnus and a black Sideswipe. I think he was a police version who became Deepcover.

    They must be crazy rare! Rescue Force, HO!

    ooooo, I remember seeing a possible police deco Sunstreaker that looked cool. But never a red one.

    Can anyone ID the three bots in the background jumping behind OverLord in the pic below? (cover of #MTMTE 15)

    Got a filling at the dentist's today, little shock to the wallet since I wasn't feeling any pain, but better off in the long run I suppose. Could have been a lot worse than just that. And since I conquered my fears of being an adult and actually going, I'd say that deserves a robot or two.

    There's no way I would've worked those guys out! I kinda wish more of the LL crew got some lines/adventures. I guess its the Star Trek thing, on a huge ship full of characters only a few are actually important

    Seems i have less season 2 bots than i thought. So Omega has been able to go in his right spot, and Chromia can still perch on his shoulder. But she has a new friend up there. So that's cons s1-3 abd bots 1,2 and 4 set up. Just need to put the technobots on s3 for that to be done.

    Preparation is key!
    DSC_0120.JPG
    After swapping the best head onto the best bod (though to be honest they were both pretty much on a par except for sloppier go-faster stripes on soon-to-be-Lancer-if-she-goes-the-right-colour and the tiniest blemish on the crispest-striped bod's face) now the bod destined for dipping is disassembled for it. I tried and, indeed, failed to remove the knee pins to separate the thighs to maintain the orange as I intended in the "easy" (at the dyeing stage, pin removal is not easy as my failure demonstrates) way. I'm gonna have to try the more artful application of dye. Hence the hips are popped and I'll actually use the shins & feet as the test to see exactly what a purple dipping does to the red (if anything).
    Fings crossed!

    Another shuttle transformer is Raker, but being a Micromaster maybe a bit small for some people's collections.
