    Some pretty good coupon offers on aliexpress. I ordered the ko OS siege megs (seen as he's not too OS, search for lensple for cheapest one) and blue warbotron vortex to make a rotorstorm.
    received_749207425548999.jpeg
    $4 off first ever order VCOMBF4
    $2 off an order over $15 JAREK1111

    Only issue is if they don't turn up but you have buyer protection on there and can pay through PayPal

    Well it's not a very good movie. I wouldn't worry too much about it.

    I did the same with countdown to extinction. Got to part three and just stopped. Oh well, beast wars and animated never fail me.

    Really have to disagree with you there, has to be my favourite transformers film by a mile and favourite animated media to come out of the franchise. I can quote most of the dialogue I've re-watched it that many times.

    Anyone got a rail racer they would be willing to part with for a decent price? I have a project I want to work on, and I'd love a copy to use as reference (plus I've always wanted one :D )

    :) 

    Chillin' at home on a Sunday afternoon so I thought I'd try some of my spare Titan Master heads on SS Cogman just because...

    What do you think? :p 

    Talking of spare heads, I think it would be kinda cool to see Kryten from Red Dwarf as a Transformer with Titan Master spare heads, maybe the squashed grumpy one and perhaps the ones of the crew when they all became an android? :confused:

    Bit the bullet as he was starting to become a bit sparse and was no longer available on any retailers online.

    Well here's the thing. We do agree on pretty much all of your points (although I have to admit to my mind Prime was much better). We're all Transformers fans here and most of us are of a similar age where TFTM was a big part of our childhoods. It's a fun watch, and I like it. But that doesn't make it good. By every possible metric it barely scrapes the lofty heights of mediocrity - animation, dialogue, story, storytelling, pacing. I still like it, but it's not a good movie.

    The irony is that most of the Bayverse movies are probably better by most regards, but they are really difficult to like thanks to the stank of nastiness that's riddled throughout.

    All my research into all these shows over the past year or so. I've come to recognise it for what it is: An attempt at salvaging a working movie out of the fact that the writer just recycled the same basic plot five times in three years and just changed up the window dressing each time.

    I have Overboard as a permanent head on TLK Cogman, and it's a great fit. I have no love for the Cogman face aesthetic so having a spare body for other heads to go on is just cracking.

    Hang on a sec, why does Danny John Jules get darker prosthetics but Craig Charles's are the lightest of the bunch?

    Large. Mate. I may have finally come to terms with arp chords. Weep for me.
