    Prowl is an absolute Beaut. I reckon he looks a lot like a Toyota Celica, which is a ģood thing!

    :lolol  that gave me one of those giggling fits where the wife just raises an eyebrow and carries on with whats she's doing.
    If they do that as a MP, will the Thermos be an Amazon exclusive?

    Opened siege hound to check wfc was all fine, before he goes away till Xmas. He’s great! A few nitpicks - would like the shoulders to tab in to the body a bit more firmly in bit mode, and moving his waist untangle a bit of his backpack, and he doesn’t have much up/down neck movement. But he looks and feels gorgeous - so much more solid and nice feeling than most of the cw/tr stuff. And the right level of complexity transformation wise, to my mind (flywheels felt a bit simple).
    -

    @Large - sounds rough, sorry to hear the job woes, but hopefully you’ll look back at this from having moved into something better for you. Be well!

    Hi folks,

    haven't posted on here since 2015. Apologies if this shouldn't go here.

    I have a boat load of figures both transformers and power rangers that i'm needing to get rid of. ideally just in one big lot.

    does anyone recommend the easiest way to do this?

    can pm me to keep this thread clean.

    thanks again

    If you don't want to Ebay I recommend the FB TFUK Sales thread or the Kapow Marketplace. Or if it's a quality collection of vintage toys maybe approach one of the dealers who stock older toys and sometimes buy collections?
