    Evenin' all! Well it's been a busy few weeks - the sale of my flat went through, which was a relief, I built the amazing Lego Pirates of Barracuda Bay, which now occupies the top shelf of our bookcase in the living room, and I'm still working from home (with a temporary 10% pay cut until mid July, ho hum). Meanwhile our 7 month old daughter continues to be a delight every day, at least one of the benefits of working from home is that I get to see a lot more of her.

    Sold something on a TF Facebook group the other week for a price I was happy with (and £20 more than anyone offered on eBay) so pleased with that. I'd taken a break from selling off my collection due to the lockdown but I'll get back onto it and I've added more stuff to my sales thread - link in my sig.

    Enjoying the shiny new robots in everyone's pics but I don't get the love for Sky Lynx. Is it just me? He's basically a giant chicken. *ducks*

    I've had order confirmation emails arrive weeks after the item before. On more than one occasion. From big brand stores.

    A little shorter in general

    On a different topic I wonder if any graphics people can help me, as i said a week ago i bought a Hot Toys War Machine, which is great with its light up features but they are a pain to use so i was hoping someone with a colour printer and a knack for graphics could do me a 'toyhax' and use the images below to create some stickers in 1/6 scale that I can put over the 'glowy bits':
    This is for the eyes, the gap between the eyes on the toy is 6mm:

    This is the chest, the centre is 10mm along the top and the upper side lights are 5mm across:

    I dont mind if these are printed on standard label sheets but if you could do at least 3 copies of each set of stickers incase i mess it up...I will pay p&p of course

    The NECA are shorter than the Hasbro? Thanks :)  I got the Hasbro Tracer, Zarya, Mercy and Pharah figures and was sad to see they don't seem to be making any more. Not that I'd want all 20-something figs but there are a few characters I'd still have liked to have got such as Brigitte.

    Honestly, until you see the madness in front of you... It's just... Brilliant!

    Haven't clicked that yet, but thanks for the heads-up (so to speak!). Been wondering what all the rumours were about!

    I'm probably being blind but is there a thread for identifying G1 TF's to see if they're legit or not? I've had a G1 (maybe) SUnstreaker kicking about for a few years now and though the box isn't mint everything inside is still sealed and untouched. I found one site that compared a KO with an original but some parts on mine seemed original but others didn't. I've either got something worth a reasonable amount or something worth nowt and want to check before I make an asshole of myself on eBay :D
