    They're just the lastest craze - a lot of people with 3d printers are making a nice bit of money out of it because once you buy a bulk load of the bearings the plastic is just a few pence worth... Expensive ones are either people ripping you off or they have higher quality bearings that cost a bit more.

    I don't get it either but my kids love them; as long as it keeps them happy and doesn't do anyone any harm, I guess I'm OK with them. One cost like £3 and started to fall apart the moment it was dropped, the other was nearer a fiver and as far as I am aware, I think this one is still in one piece...

    The first I knew about them was seeing memes on F/B calling people morons for buying them. I've no idea why they're so popular but also don't see the need to criticise people buying them either.

    Freaking TakaraTomy... I take some time off the hobby, stop taking photos of robots, box everything up and sell a bunch of stuff and then... they... reveal... MP Sunstreaker. Did I dream it or something?

    Anyway... Looks pretty good. Not perfect but better than other attempts at the character.

    Still out of the hobby in general though. I need all my spare time to focus on my new company and the with I am doing :( 

    No way am I missing out on a new Masterpiece though :)

    No problem, I quite enjoy the pictures you do.

    Seeing that had got me thinking about a random picture I did back in 2014 with TFP Shockwave at my old home.

    They are practically the definition of a fad. They will be gone by September, when schools come back after summer.

    Hey, who wants to play pogs!?

    Not only is that IF Shockwave looking amazing, it also looks like their Bruticus and hold him in space gun mode. Iron Factory are my drug of choice!

    Does anyone here have any interest in the 2000ad comic. I have about 2-300 issues dating from around 1985 - 1990 & I want them gone. PM if you're after any specific issues & I'll see what I have.

    Ha, let's hope they don't fall out of fashion before my one arrives from... wherever it's coming from. Gotta keep up with the cool kids!
