    Holy Crap Avengers is amazing, it's a shame Bay can't do half as good a job.

    BTW don't bother waiting right to the end of the credits, there is nothing after the black rolling credits.

    I just figured with the mid-credit scene there wouldn't be anything else so did a runner.

    Just bought RTS fallback off of Ebay for £6.50, being sold by the entertainer. Only a couple of quid for postage too!

    Wasn't Fallback shelfwarming three ways 'til Sunday? He's not exactly the most popular Transformer.

    Anyone have any knowledge/experience of the KO Human Alliance Barricade?

    Keep seeing them on ebay and I have to say for £30 I'd be tempted if I knew the quality was alright.

    Had to clean the carpets when we left rented accommodation. Did a great job, but oh my christ, it stank like a wet dog. Quick plug for my ebay sales, user name dante.drachensturm G1 Trypticon/Sixshot/Soundwave with all tapes...

    I have no experience with it at all, but I'd be shocked if the quality was anything even resembling 'alright'.

    Wouldn't know, I've only recenlty had a requirement for the mold, so it's not something that I've been watching.

    He is unfairly dismissed. The RtS Fallback/RotF Brawn figure is one of my favourites of all time. Such a cool little, poseable figure with a very clever transformation, incredible posability and a great military alt mode. I have a growing Fallback army.

    TBF, Fallback and Mindset are the new Skids and Mudflap.

    Or, from my experience, ROTF Mixmaster and 2007 movie legends Megatron.

    I remember being among those that convinced Locustreign to buy Fallback at Nerd Day 2. A few days later, in a box with the BotCon Sweeps I bought off him, I find the selfsame Fallback...

    Well, I am more than happy to give complete/good condition RtS Fallbacks a home for a small price! I think that little guy is utterly awesome.

    Once I get mine, he'll only remain as Fallback until I get my aft in gear and paint him up as part of a crazy crossover project, along with '07 Stockade and DotM Sideswipe. Speaking of, I still need to sort out a new head for the Sidewipe.

    Just for no reason I was just thinking of what combo could be made using parts from prime rid bee, hotshot and the new shadow strike bee,
    I was gutted to see shadow strike seems to be grey and not black (also what's up with having his front car bits yellow, just seems pointless)

    Botcon kick off does look wicked and i can see why he's the most sort after from botcon, his colour scheme would translate very well to the rid bee mold, (but then the same could be said about jazz, prowl, smokescreen, night beat, bluestreak and such)

    Are there any pics of voyager dreadwing with megatron in shot?
    See one with megs arm in the shot, it give the impression he might be a bit short,

    If I hadn't just had to buy heating oil, I was getting seriously tempted by the BIN Kick-Off that's on ebay. Oh well back to plan A and mod that spare RTS Jazz. Shame I won't be able to do the red windows and lights. Might have to see if I can get a cast of the Botcon head somewhere along the line too :(  Curse the need for heating and hot water.....
