    I am thinking of getting a Hot Toys Wonder Woman figure, my spare money will be a lot less starting next month (financial rejig) so the raft of expensive purchases is ending and I am thinking of going out with a bang.

    Does anyone here have that figure? Would like to get an opinion form someone here

    I sense that I have to go back in thread and catch important things that I've missed. @Napalm and @OptimushedPrune for exemple seem to have reach some milestones.
    I don't know what exactly, but congrats !

    Also, @nice sideburns, I knew that Canaria islands were paradise but WITH A FORT MAX IN IT ?
    Dude.
    Congrats to you too.



    In unrelated news, I now have answers.

    The new -big- trade does not contain SL Kup or AHM #15, but important stuff like Bullets, Zero Point, Escape, In Word and Deed, Mosaic, and -all- the character profiles, are included !
    Wreck'n' Rule indeed.

    The loft conversion continues... was rather hoping I would return from holiday to it all finished but still it endures. Don’t get me wrong, I am chuffed to be getting it done but tired of the mess that comes with it and living in a fuckin’ pigsty. Every time you clean up, the place is messy in no time. So stopped clearing up now, seems little point.

    This process will also mean the box room will become available to me when one of my sons moves in to our old bedroom and us in to the newly created loft room. A “man cave” of sorts will be born!

    And then I will have a space to house these two gorgeous specimens... amongst others.

    Funny how that Red Dead Redemption 2 trailer just did nothing on me but I know very well that I'll squatt the hell out of some friends PS4 come november.
    But right now I need a Monster Boy release date please.

    So few TF comic issues to read this year, so many games to come.

    Speaking of TF comics, finally read Unicron #3 and... Art is great.

    Can 100% relate.

    We converted our loft last year. Then commenced nearly a years worth of work which turned our house in to a glorified building site.

    Such a stressful time but worth it in the end.

    This is just so surreal to me. I was actually taking pictures of Masterpiece Beast Wars Dinobot not too long ago. This is something at one time I thought would only exist in my dreams.

    Beautiful, what is it?

    Is that MP-10? The trailer looks different?

    It's the KBB voyager-sized knockoff of MP10, which has been around for a while now, and only just had the trailer released for it. Obviously now he's a little larger than voyager-size when in truck mode, but still...

    Hey, I sold some TF (and Sparktoys Spartacus, UT Peru Kill & KFC Citizen Stack are still available in my sig!) as I got back into knives and what to maintain them. We all slide the cursor from time to time I guess. And it’s nice to do so I think.

    Nope. One is the Wei jiang OSKOAOEOP and the other is the wei jiang MPP10 - the OSKO of mp10 but both are essentially masterpiece in terms of quality/aesthetics

    Quite possible. Star wars is a slippery slope I will never go down.
    Lego on the other hand could be my downfall. After buy Voltron and a few bits and pieces for my son (birthdays and christmasses etc) I then encounter a rather large technic set in Tesco, £75 down from £220... and couldn't resist.

    But Huge Dragon arrived, taking a unreasonable 6 days from purchase to get to my door from china. Will see if was worth £40 later!

    Quick update @nemisispringer @Seeaich and everyone else about the buyer of my G1 toys who asked for some compensation because some of the figures were not in good condition - it's been 3 days and he's not replied to my message asking for pictures of the problems. I was going to give a refund like you suggested but now I'm wondering what his game is. /Sigh, selling to randoms is not fun

    Don't refund until he shows pics. You're well within reason to want to see pics before you do so.

    I now understand all the potp rippersnapper love. That land shark is glorious.

    *Sigh* Mine's still stuck in Guangzhou. And will probably hit Customs like a ton of bricks.

    Also I've just had the really annoying thought that My Skyhammer custom decoy suit will most likely be able to hold an original G1 Skyhammer wee wing blaster, and am pretty sure they'll be both like rocking horse shit and expensive to get a hold of. Urgh!

    But WAIT! THAT has given an idea for some equipping I can do for as cheap as Free!

    @Insurgent Is bang on, you don't hand over the ransom without proof of life!
