    Agreed on all counts, looking forward to Shang Chi releasing on D+ on the 12th!

    Yikes now you've got me proper worried. I think I just bunged mine in a box and stored it in a barn ten years ago.... :confused:

    ...

    Iceland must have 3 different cottage pies, so naturally they've substituted mine with beef lasagne... as I said before, that's me done with that lot. There's no convenience there. Tesco don't list half the stuff that's in their store, Sainsburys is a dear hole for no benefit, and Asda are woeful. Urgh. Useless bastards.

    Try Morrisons.

    They put the rest to shame. They once substituted Alphabites with Aunt Bessie's roast potatoes.

    As far as I know Ebay seems to be best for single bits, try searching rotary tool as well if not you'll have to just buy a "rotary tool accessory set" with one in it.

    Honestly I'd try Morrisons out of desperation if they operated over here!

    I just tried Asda again out of curiosity. Half the stuff I want isn't in stock/stocked by them, and a simple search for eggs gave me everything that ever contained an egg. You go into the filters and there's even a 'no egg' option... :poke 

    Tesco's website is somehow dumber than it was 15 years ago too. What is wrong with these companies? :wtf:

    Voyager SS86 Ironhide - So... taller? and with a better transformation?

    Or just the same as Earthrise but with a few extras like his drill to "justify" the price hike?

    Those CD players weren't gonna sell themselves!

    I think I recall a friend ordering something like ice cream and getting bleach... online ordering should be a complete win for these firms and going forward they'll simply have to sort it out or someone will see their chance.

    Who is that?

    I might be the minority- but I hated the Earthrise Vanbros. The partsforming crossed a line that did not know existed in my head. I sold all three for a tidy sum.

    The Siege versions I really like.

    My son playing football yesterday pulled off that Wolverine move on two midfielders. Like Ngolo Kante mixed in with a nightclub bouncer he came away with the ball.

    If it's a new figure with the full SS86 aesthetic I reckon it could be a more 'toon-accurate square van mode, and around the same height but less hollow (unless it's just the ER 2-packs with new retooled windscreens and roof/sleds plus gear as you suggest).

    Netflix US. No idea if it'll appear in uk netflix. We only got season 1 here, didn't we? I had to go youtube for the rest (and not even the official hasbro channel).
