    The Moomins are terrifying so any fear is justified. Those fuckers go for the eyes!

    Having a bit of miced feelings about tf toys atm, looked at how much i spent last month. looked at the wave 1 kingdom figures and went meh, maybe cyclonus.
    The pit looked nice, but for that price ef no. Not to mention i need to pack something up and move it to storage, space sure gets a premium after getting a couple small figures...like scorponok and sky lynx

    All you Corps, just get in the sea!!!

    Still in love with the ER Datbro bod, so fantastically expressive and poseable, awesome deep knee bends, and fantastic foot articulation. Really hoping that SS'86 Jazz share some skeleton and/or just has this level of mobility for some badass B-Boy breakdance posing!
    Also found out Exhaust can stow his golden gun in his chest compartment in robot mode, oh, yes, the play plaisir!

    Wave 3 of Masters of the WWE Universe. I still can't quite believe these exist, but they scratch two of my fringe interests in one awesome toyline.

    Big-E-Faces is the clear winner, but I love how Attitude era Rock and 'Taker are.

    Super jealous of those. It wound's me that I couldn't get hold of the Battle Armour Macho Man they did. The Scareglow style Taker looks amazing too.

    Some more Blitzwing!

    Got my Ghostbusters exclusive from Kapow. Boy, it sure is nice to not have to sit on a webpage for God knows how long while you wait for it to load.

    Oh I have a list of new generations fembots I want.
    A new Strongarm Would be great.
    A rise version of Slipstream and Flamewar from the current IDW run.
    Nautica and Roadrage also from the current IDW run.
    A nice generations version of Clobber and Shadow-Striker from Cyberverse.
    So many excellent characters that could have excellent new figures.
    Personally I really like the development of Shadow Striker and Clobber during Cyberverse and they’re two of the most interesting new characters for me in a long time.

    I've not watched Cyberverse yet so I don't personally know anything much about Shadow Striker and Clobber but I am all for that list. Though for preference I want Nautica to have her MTMTE/Lost Light alt mode. Especially as since getting Sentinel Prime I see he has the perfect engineering in his lower legs to be able to do it properly with minimal kibble. TBH if he wasn't Voyager sized I'd try customising him into her but she'd tower over my Windblade(s) and Chromia like that :(

    An aside due to the finger food fiddlability of the ER Datbro, and because I've also been faffing with Exhaust & 'Jackie, that I feel compelled to voice out loud because in all the hubbub it's kinda slipped by quietly, too quietly I feel, is that on Warden's watch (now sadly over) Has/Tak have in fact perfected the Deluxe Autobot car bod*. The aforementioned fellas and Hound & 'Swipe (heck, being based on 'Swipe is a big reason I'm in for Gigawatt!) too are stunningly solid, well-articulated figures with super tight vehicles modes that just *work*.
    I'mma have to break Ol' Jasper out again!

    * = I'm deliberately omitting Mirage but IMO his major problem is a material one, no trans plastic and he'd be up there too! Shins of clay rather than feet holding him back.

    This is a good list. I'd add Lug, Anode and Aileron from IDW1, plus the vs Terminator versions of Arcee and Lottie.

    Why is everyone so insistent in getting things inside me, I'm not that kind of man.... sorry I'll get my coat.

    I missed all the hoopla around the Quint set, thankfully it was of zero interest especially for £90.

    Unfortunately, I now have a severe hankering to get several of the Autobot clone sets to mod into Pretenders, Fastlane would work for Landmine, Groundbreaker and Vroom. Cloudraker into Cloudburst, Waverider, Splashdown and others... Nope that's a rabbit hole to avoid.

    I can recommend Cyberverse as it’s easy to watch at 10 minutes an episode.
    It has a pleasantly high ratio of female characters who are actually driving plot lines forward.
    A new Nautica model would certainly be cool rather than the Chaos on Velocitron version.
