Oooh, I was gonna check these out... gah. Should I? Because it'll be yet another rabbit hole to fall down into.

And let's face it, Transformers is already a multiple hole interest. You have... mainline (I do pick up the odd Cyberverse), Generations (currently Earthrise), Studio Series (SD86 is gonna be expensive) and if it takes your fancy Masterpiece plus a whole slew on other offshoots.

Oh! I finally opened (gotta love a huge backlog of unopened toys) Marvel Legends black suit Black Widow from the new movie... eeeeh. It's alright... but not a patch on GI Joe Classified Scarlett! Zounds.

 

Jake's always been a great talker and after years of wondering whether he'd be the next casualty of 80's wrestler excess and seeing how bad his relationship with his daughter was in Beyond the Mat it's a genuine feel good story seeing him get clean and personal feelings on AEW aside it's great that he's doing something in the business again, maybe some of the younger generation will take the time to listen to any advice if he offers it because they'd be fools not to take the opportunity to learn from a master of in ring psychology.

I saw his appearance on the Joe Rogan Experience and really enjoyed that so the book should be fun. I've also just seen his MOTU crossover figure which has an awesome alternate mode where he looks like one of those Reptilians that David Icke is always on about  

Studio Series '86

At this stage I'm intrested in,

Blurr
Maybe Hot Rod
Maybe Wheelie

 

I just use MP as the sealer then see how it looks first.

 

Also, how does it work since it's white?

 

Dries clear with only a slight sheen so long as you don't go mad. I use it because it'll even make kids' acrylic paint look good!

 

Well sure, but we (briefly) thought that Scourge was Kingdom too. Maybe he was, and got switched. Point is it doesn't really matter any more. Generations is Generations, innit.

 

What's the last thing they give a Tickle Me Elmo doll before it leaves the factory?

Two test tickles.

 

I open my browser, refresh the page and I see this. Can’t say I’m disappointed.

 

Overlord appears to be available on Netflix so might give it a go tonight!  

Who are the head shots on the wall in the back ground? Right hand side looks like a Lt Warf?  

 

Trying to figure out if its possible to make a voodoo doll of the Royal Mail so they deliver Vehicon/Breakdown pack. Feel like the abstract nature of a corporation makes it difficult.

Also that SS86 Grimlock better not be shit.

 

So here is my gang as of now. You probably seen them before.


And speaking of toys from the childhood coming back in updated and expensive versions; I got myself a zoid.



This should keep me busy for a bit.

 

 
Hmm I wonder how long before all the other UK toy retails apart from IDt/Kapow get their Prime Breakdown/Vehicon packs?
If the 'big 2' are getting/have got theirs when do the other retails get to mop up?  

 

Any recommendations in that genre direction buddy? Tis Halloween season after all!

That is a terrible joke that I plan on launching at several people.

 

Can anyone point me in the direction of the recent South Park special in full as I've seen a couple of clips on YouTube and NEED to see all of it  

Just having a look at Kingpin and Mysterio on their cards and not for the first time I'm thinking MOC collectors will have a nice display of all the Spidey figures once they're done.

Both are great looking figures, just itching for a new classic red costume Daredevil even more now I have a more classic looking Kingpin.

Whilst not a MOC collector there is something very endearing about the retro carding Hasbro have been doing lately, Kingpin is even on a beefier card stock than the regular sized characters and feels incredibly satisfying.

Additional thoughts on SS '86,

Might give Hot Rod a go as since I resold the MMC Rodimus I don't have any other versions of the character in my collection.

Kup's mostly OK but lacking in the face.

Jazz looks more cartoony with no door wings and suitably different enough from the RTS/United mould to be a decent alternative but Peak Jazz for me is Newage's Martini variant which I feel is as good as anybody has done with the character in any scale.

 

Mysterio has 100% protection from Covid.

 

Anyone know how long Royal Mail keeps trying to deliver a parcel until they just leave it in the Sorting Office for me to pick it up? Tomorrow will be the Third attempt at delivery.

My pub where it's getting delivered to is currently shut due to the Scottish Covid restrictions so its a bit of a pain. If they would just leave it at the sorting office I would be able to go and collect it!

 

I believe the community term is "haul"?

 

Saw Studio Series Grimlock and Jazz ont he front page and had a slight panic before I realised the aspect ratio was wrong.

 

Not sure if this will work?   South_Park_Pandemic.avi
