Garry Chalk at TF Nation announced.

Not too shabby.

 

OOOOOOH SEE YOU THERE GUYS!!!

 

Glad you’ve finally managed to get hands on one you are happy with. Bone white rocket one assumes? Labels is an easy win as long as the general condition is ok.

I read wife swap and had to do a double take - apparently, there is a boozer down the road from me that has a reputation for this sort of thing. I’ve been going there quite a bit and it hadn’t occurred to me…

 

But... what if you get a worse one with more kids or something?

 

@nice sideburns Take your smut elsewhere  

I see, we have a new thread! I’m going to need to up my logistics game, it’s @doucoo i feel sorry for! So, toys; what’s the skinny with pre-orders for Pipes and Tigatron? Have the usual suspects come through yet?

 

Apparently it is in good nick, so will take it for now!

 

Extreme 90s? Tish, pershaw, nonsense, he doesn't even have a built in snowboard.  

 

I don't hate cheetor, but he is my least fav of the kingdom beasts. Big Cat however, feels so much more substantial and built. Not transformed him yet but yeah, you can feel what a difference the voyager price makes. So so sooooooo glad hasbro did him as his own figure, and gave him his proper robot head. I know it cost us polar claw, but its a price I'm willing to pay for this. My only complaint so far is he's missing his robot mode tasche. Lol.

 

Yeah same boat for me on Cheetor. He gets the job done but he doesn’t feel as up to scratch. Personally I’d rather get Tigatron than Polar Claw as I had no attachment, and even then I had little to no love for Beast Wars to begin with (he says that as he now owns the majority!)

Regarding the tasche thank you for ruining the figure for me, 0/10 straight in the bin.

 

Golden Grahams Cereal Collection Terrorsaur mini review...

Have to begin by saying I've been a fan of Pterodactyls since I was a kid and yet know nothing about this character, so I'm judging him purely on the figure itself  

Here he is in different angles in the alt mode he arrives in. Needless to say he looked more like a particularly spicy chicken McNugget on tray removal than anything else what with entire wing sections falling off. Fantastic first impression there, Hasbro, you're lucky he looks this good!





Please note the leg angles used below, if my two copies didn't have tight knees and ankles his upper body weight would crash him every time because of the free-spinning ball jointed feet. If you're not ready to treat those this really isn't the figure for you. Either way, it shouldn't be happening on an expensive exclusive - I’ve used a quarter of a bottle of Pledge in the last year or so, FFS.





No other way to say it, the headsculpt is perfect in alt. It's my favourite mode of the two.





Bot mode is rather good too though. He literally just looks like a vicious devil.



Again though, you're gonna need to tighten up the feet otherwise gravity will eventually overcome your best efforts of positioning his knees and ankles. Oh yeah, no ankle tilt after getting so used to it lol.

Won't lie, took quite a few seconds of leg tolerance exploration just to get him to stand like this. FYI.



While I was in a rush he does work a treat with a flight stand!



The headsculpt is just what you'd want on a guy with such a design, though I do wonder if the eyes shouldn't have been a darker yellow to bring them out more in standard light.



Before I forget, upthread are some rather good pics of him with his wings swapped around for those who know their show history or whatever! I don't and actually prefer them stock. I think!

And finally the accessories. Gun's snazzy, the disc (showing both sides of the one included here) is... also included.





As you probably knew and my two copies attest to anyway, you'll almost certainly have to coat the wings and feet in your tightener of choice otherwise I can't really recommend this guy, what with standing being an expected basic function.... if you're good with that, Terry Thomas is a gap-toothed charmer.

 

a flight has departed Australia. It has at least 4 transformers on it. Heres hoping it has many more...

Flight departed

 

I’m into it but I imagine not many have survived intact to the present day with all that clear plastic :S

Am I the only person in the fandom that couldn’t give a flying shit about voice actors? It frequently feels that way.

 

Minor ones don't do much for me, but Chalk is a nice addition. I guess they can't get Cullen this year...

 

Happy Birthday @Brooticus !!

 

Oops missed that! Happy birthday @Brooticus

 

Collectorsden have added a load of Marvel Legends to their sale, though many are the recent clunkers  

 

Wishing you all the very best @Toadimus Prime - You can do it brother!

Bit of help/opinion from the hive mind - SS86 boxes, should I bin or should I fold down and keep?

 

Depends whether it includes Dinobots or Gnaw  

 

Honestly I’d keep everything for the Dinobots, because once the set is complete you’ve got a really nice money maker if you ever needed to sell. In the meantime you’ve also go nice background to display them on.
