    wow~~ thanks very much guys. Thanks for all of your kind words! Here is such a nice and warm place. :) 

    Unfortunately, our MP18 Streak release date has been delayed again. Takara always ships the goods to oversea first then China, though they are all made by a same factory in China. Yes, we are treated as a 'domestic' dealer as our supplier is Hasbro China. We have our advantages, but as you can see, most of time we will have Takara products in stock later than JP/HK market.

    A good news for all of you combiner fans, Warbotron(another 3p based in China) is going to open the preorder of their MP scale WB01 - not Bruticus in the middle of Nov 2013.

    I can do 16th, Sweeny can do 16th - did Robotochan say he could do it?

    Loosecannon, Tigerblad, Podleian?

    Yep, November 15th preorders go up but what's interesting is who Warbotron is. Can you confirm who they really are Zaltron as you deal directly with them?

    My Prowl arrived today from omegalock it was packed well, great service and comms all around.

    After transforming him I'm trying and TRYING not to triple dip into getting smokescreen aswell. I didn't even like the G1 char but this mould is simply irresistible... somebody just shoot my wallet now he can't take no more.

    Edit: My prays seemed to be answered, the QC gods spared my Prowl of any major problems.

    Finally gotten my Abominus finished, since I found Blight in Asda! However, the day has been slightly tarnished by my Generations Legends Bumblebee not fitting together in vehicle mode - has anyone else had this prob?

    Yeah, I am in the same place. I have been collecting comics since the 80's, and I used the New 52 as an opportunity to jump off the wagon so to speak. I realised I was buying comics mostly out of habit, and not really enjoying a lot of them. This was mostly the case with Marvel's output, which had just completely lost me.

    The Batman stuff has pulled me back in a little, but a few years back back I was picking up 30 odd comics a month - whereas now its just 2. Which is Batman and Justice League.

    Even those have only happened relatively recently.


    I just wish that DC would stop trying to keep things so tight and similar and let people do differentiate their books.

    I have always hoped they would bring out a Batman book that fit more along the lines of the Starlin/Aparo era as that is my Batman

    Warbotron is Warbotron :)  Just like FansToys is FansToys. When FT released their prototype of Soundwave (FT02), people was asking the same question.

    The QC of MP Prowl is really good this time!

    More information, e.g. price and release date will be announced by the middle of November.

    Always thought it strange that Quakewave was FT03 when 1 or 2 never made releases

    Getting really annoying that the only upcoming official releases I'm after (skids and swerve) are only available to pre-order in multi packs.

    I'm sure Amazon and most likely ebay will have some individually at some point.
