    Took a couple more pics just for the heck of it. I forgot to mention that Delta sent me 2 wst Galvatrons so now I've got twins :0)

    This is really a neat little figure and the detail is amazing. Are there no customizers out there that can give us more figures like this??? I'm just dying for a wst Liokaiser!

    *Shameless plug. I just love the three W's! WST's, Women, and "you know what" :D

    Well as for the two Galvatrons I've gotta find someone who can make the little cannon attachment for me because Aaron told me that his kids demolished them years ago :0) But he referred me to someone who could make them for me so that's a plus.

    And as for the wst Predaking I'll feel bad selling off something that was a free gift. Trust me there's still that guy who offered me two grand for him and to say that I've been tempted to sell is a huge understatement.

    And where would one acquire a WST Predaking (he asks afraid of the potential price)?
    I need it in my life.

    Edit: Nevermid. Saw the comment about it beng over $2K.
    YIKES.

    I don't blame you, I'd good it hard to justify for that price anyway, especially after buying a few Arcee's recently :)

    Man I hear you. That's a lot of money man. It's crazy that I could sell this little plastic toy and buy a decent used car! It's freakin' ridiculous when you think about it.

    Well honestly the only problem I will have with that one is that it'll be a very hard decision as to which home my little "Galvy" will end up residing in because there are only two people I would consider selling him to anyways. On one hand I have my man Simon who I am very cool with and he would definitely be the one I would sell it to if you weren't also interested in it. And on the other hand we have the history between you & I as far as wst Galvatron goes in general and I would love nothing more than to specifically get a wst Galvatron in your hands. Hence the dilemma...... :confused: 

    Simon :duel  Sideburns

    Yup no insert. Just put in a ziplock bag and covered in bubble wrap.

    A custom stand would be awesome. I'd buy that.

    Man that WST Predaking is amazing.

    Man what a huge disappointing letdown. I was sure that Heero was going to give us a nice little insert. I was looking forward to having a custom box made for that plastic insert too, oh well...

    As for the custom stand I'm going to ask Ninjahandz if he could possibly make one. I'll let him know that Heero has been selling the add-on pieces for Megs on eBay & Heerotoys.com for real cheap and therefore it'll be a great opportunity to cash in on making a stand for all of those sales.

    And as for Predaking yeah that's the "holy grail" of wst collecting for sure. Both Predaking & Overlord are my most valuable Wonderfest WST's to date.

    I love the animation! great stuff, reminds me of a sketch on a show we get here in the UK, TV Burp. "I like Simon but I also like Sideburns; now which is better? There is only one way to find out - FIGHT!!" :) 

    I would love to take that Galvatron off your hands as I imagine will Simon - if I am being mercenary about it though I would say I should have the Galvatron and Simon can find the 2k for the Predaking! :lol 

    Seriously though, I can see how this might put you in a bit of a spot.

    I'm not fussed about it, if it's available and I have the money then fine, if not I'll wait and hope it turns up again, same with WST Wheelie, Goldbug, etc too :) 

    I've never been as bothered by the Wonderfest WSTs for some reason, probably cost to be honest. The only one I've really fancied has been Predaking and the price is a show stopper for him :)

    Thanks a bunch Simon but that guy has two major flaws. The 1st being that he's in the blue packaging which means that he is the 18 cm version as opposed to the 14 cm wst-sized version in the yellow packaging. And the 2nd problem is that they gave him an incorrect limb. His left arm is "doubledealer" as opposed to the blue jet that's supposed to be there.

    That's why I passed on that figure even when I was able to find him in the yellow packaging. It's a shame because I love the transformation scheme of Liokaiser and I would absolutely go nuts if someone were to construct a wst version of him. One could only dream...

    Yeah, I bought a bulk pack of all the small versions of those KOs ages ago, haven't opened any though as I previously accidentally broke a Motormaster and that rather put me off... :) 

    The odd limb part is ridiculous though with some of them

    Edit: To be fair at least the listing did specify the height.

    Well to be fair wst Galvatron isn't actually a Wonderfest wst. It was made by Kwonghingco, the same guy who made both your red & blue Tracks. And honestly my man you may have to wait a very, very long time before you see another one of his pieces come up for sale.

    Well is it safe to say that you're not as interested in it as Sideburns? Because if so then I may just base my decision on that factor if that's the case. Just let me know.

    Much that I'm tempted I think I should reign in my spending for a bit unfortunately.

    Got my Heero stock & silencer for megatron through today - first impressions are it looks really well made.
