"Wherefore Art Thou Thundercracker?"

 

@Brooticus - many congratulations to you and yours on the news of the little one on the way.

 

Good morning, and welcome to the Alien Abs Farm, where our hero takes a leaf from the Takara playbook and sez "F*** THAT!' to even trying to paint eyes on a tiny guy!

He might've ended up a wee bit Space Marine proportions but aren't they all?

Also Big Ups to @MyTea Boc for furthering my Mini-Agenda with a care package of small-but-perfectly-lethal bods to Mad Science on!

 

If I hadn't just bought Starscream, this pic would have sold me on him. Giving him a go after regretting selling off most of my Siege stuff earlier in the year.

 

@Brooticus congrats

 

Invoices are coming out from Kapow for camera club enthusiasts.
Also well consummation stations for a man like @Brooticus

 

Looks great

 

Happy Monday, UKTDers! Today I realised that I won't be happy until the SDCC Fort Max-shaped hole in my life has been filled. Time to start saving those pennies, I guess.

 

I started collecting as mine were maybe 4/5 years old, and it doesn't, or maybe as a wholesome hobby shouldn't ...stop you,
but yeah sometimes on here I see people have spent serious coin on TFs that I never would, even though now they are older maybe I could (emotional baggage/pressure not withstanding), I buy mainly second hand if it is something big (I have recently bought the KO Predaking and the KO MP Superion), and I can count the amount of TFs I have spent 100+ on one hand, in fact, in terms of the number of arms I have,
but it doesn't stop me enjoying the hobby my way.
One sprogladite is 11, one is 16 and I plan to visit TFNation for the first time this year, it does get easier as they get bigger,
do they like TFs? Nope, and it doesn't matter.

The issue is space...is it oh my goodness.

Oh, I am planning as above to do TFNation on Saturday just for the day (and won't hang around after too long, due to responsibilities as detailed above), but if anyone is en route Colchester to there, let me know.

Laters.

 

Big boy. Big big boy.

 

Crikey, lads

Transformers: War For Cybertron Unicron – Hasbro Pulse

 

"Hi! How're you doing? I'm the most ridiculous thing you may ever see and for a contribution of £460 to Haslab's kickstarter I might ever get made"


Now what the fuck am I meant to do?

 

is there a reason this Hasbro Reveals Transformers: War for Cybertron Unicron, Its Biggest Transformer Figure Ever - IGN isnt on the front page?

Edit: Ninja'd  

 

Would be nice to see a pic of the prototype next to some Siege figures, just to be able to gauge the scale of it.

 

Check the video. 54 seconds in there's a shot of him next to Titan Fort Max. Unicron is roughly head and shoulders taller.

Edit: Enter helpful screencpature from @Superhans

 

Huh. I was coming here to complain about Kapow sending me three invoices for Reflector instead of one invoice for three figures, but now...

Holy Hell... 460?! Do I need it...?

 

No shipping outside the US for Unicron, it would seem. I'm sure there'll be ways round this, but boooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!

 

As:

I think it might be a tad more than £460. I'm pretty sure I'll be sticking to Platinum Unicron and not happening across this fella for £50 in B&M's!

 

Thanks and I agree Siege has some of the best Generations figure in it I've ever bought and it occupies most of my TFN shopping list

 

My other half lives in North Carolina... so that's my work around  

If I get him, that is. The platinum Unicron is still a pretty decent representation of the guy, especially with the planet shell removed.
