    Just been looking at (what I'd call MP) Scorponok from a Unicron on there.....absolute fucking genius how the guy did the claws from Unicron's feet.

    I now have an overwhelming urge to find another Unicron........

    What five did you get? I have FE SS, AM SW, AM TC and DE SS. And I have Slipstream ordered for good measure ;) 

    Nope, not as far as we know, I just picked up the 4 deluxes from Andy for £50 which wasn't exactly over the top!

    Not a problem :) 

    I hope you enjoy Herc as he looks immense!

    I'm certainly sold on this one. Screen accurate(ish) Smokescreen for the win! I'm sure reprolabels will do a set to help smooth out the paint work kinks.

    Burgess Hill! Yeah.... about four train stops up from Brighton.

    Given the sixth member as a drone, this is what I had in mind too.

    That would work really well in my opinion.

    Yup, anything past Crawley, really...

    dhII - impressive skills, selecta.
    Sounds a bit too full on for me nowadays. Follow down the rabbithole in my sig for some TF-themed mashups, though. Maybe the odd bit of DnB and acid house, too.

    What is it with third party companies and dodgy names this year? Shafter, Uranos, Grindrod and now Hardbone?

    Are they naming toys after Brighton night clubs now?

    In no particular order; FE SS, PRID Ent Pack SS, DE SS, AM SW and AM TC..!!

    At least they're all different deco's! I have yet to secure a Slipstream, but she's on my priority list for 2013. Unfortunately I believe she'll be one of the more desirable figures from the subscription service :(

    Does anyone have pics of the Alts (Particularly Silverstreak, Hound, Jazz, and Tracks) next to Sideswipe and Red Alert? Would be interested to see how they scale.

    Yeah Smokescreen looks cool, the nicest Prime deluxe since Wheeljack imo. It is crying out for a reprolabels set, you are right!

    Cant wait for Herc to arrive, it looks all kinds of epic

    :D  :D 

    I think there were some earlier in the thread. I definitely saw some with them (or one of them) next to Hound and Jazz, but maybe it wasn't in this thread.

    So im no help, sorry!

    I don't have pics, but MP Alert and Swipe are about a head taller than their deluxe counterparts. Alts are much bigger.
