    Sorry to hear you are having a tough time boss. You aren't alone, my team's workload has increased significantly since this covid shite kicked off, and I've certainly been stressing more - as well as the folks on my team.

    I'm making an effort to spend as much time outside as I can, fresh air and nature does wonders for me. But I've also found Doom Eternal works fantastically well as blowing off steam.

    Glad you're partner is there to help keep you steady. Hope you feel better soon.

    Here, here.

    Top 5 eh - not counting upgrade kits? quickly enough then, FP Steel Core, PE Warden, MMC Thunderclash, MMC Tarn, Maketoys Tailgate.

    FE Cliff is a thing of rare beauty.

    True that. Outside of Bots what Transform, I'd certainly rank Kenner Aliens Ripley as a top 5 childhood favourite.

    That sucks Mel. Hope you find something new soon. At least you have gardening leave.

    No you aren't you filthmonger :p 
    Glad your virus free though

    They might fit voyagers at a stretch dude, but only with modding, the balljoints on some of them are huge if I'm remembering right.

    Happy birthday Mr. Burns. The jealous is pouring out of me like hot sticky bile.

    Yeah just to be clear I was referring to her stature as well. Not her race

    I’m very happy that so many people are excited for this guy, i thought he’d be another slightly niche figure. I was expecting no one to talk about him like with Trailbreaker :D

    Watching that just reminded me, was Soundblaster available, like, anywhere in the UK? I know there's a glut of 35th Megatrons floating around, but I don't think I saw anywhere online listing the others in that lil assortment, especially not Soundblaster...

    Limited stock with ID Toys exclusively IIRC?

    Jokes "...delivered like a Eulogy" is entirely on-point, and got a chuckle out of me. :lol

    Been trying the weapon effects out on Sky Lynx and also Cliffjumper, much Blooshing has been had! :D 

    This bodes very well for if I get Hubcap and for when Rotorstorm arrives :) 

    Rebecca ferret did the playing dead thing when I went to get her out earlier although she wasn't quite on full form as her eyes were still slightly open so the heat is even affecting her ability to mess with me :D 

    Attempted to have a go at MGS V Ground Zeroes again and fared slightly better and got the first prisoner rescued but things went a bit pear shaped after that and I ended up switching it off, definitely a good thing I only paid 4 quid for it because at this rate I'll be doing well if I complete Ground Zeroes, let alone get anywhere into the main game.

    I'm pretty sure that since Metal Gear Solid, Kojima has been making games engineered to make you turn off your game console to go for a nice, long walk instead! :lol 

    Until Dead Stranding where he just gave up and said, "Fine! I'll make you walk in-game instead!"

    Anyone miss out on earlier POTP Primemasters? Particularly Cloudburst/Micronus? I ask because this here UK-based Ebay store has some but only 4 of him left and a Multibuy offer if you need some of the other PMs, I'm afraid my Collector Halo has slipped as I bought two and an additional Bombburst/Megatronus & Skullgrin/Liege Maximo (which works out at £6.79 each) for...reasons

    Apparently one of the lesser known early late 70s/early 80s anime Imports like Battle Of the Planets,Star Blazers & Captain Harlock, originally Starzinger which by rights means it should feature an ace starfighter pilot who defeats his enemies by sick burns alone!

    It's about to kick off some more, Lads!

    Just did my first day of working from home. Was interesting...but can see why it's now for everyone. I like my work and home separate.
