    So bought! Love it

    If you give this link and the DH one when you have done it and I'll go make a purchase.

    Thanks for this Dan.

    Was hoping to catch you at TFN but I was like a rabbit in headlights this year.

    DITTO. Still gutted there were no cheap Zaraks left when I got paid so I could make my own :( 

    Speaking of missed opportunities, Garth Marenghi announced a few new dates for his Terrortome book tour so I jumped on tickets to see him at Home in Manchester. When else would I ever get the chance to see horrordom's premier Man-Shee, plus actor?

    Spent another morning looking at Magic Square Prime as well as others like MP44. There's something about the extra realism of MP10 that I think has been lost in the room accurate updates. Mine is an undersized KO with slightly longer shins, and I really wish he had the articulation the more modern incarnations have, but I dunno man, I still think it's the best Prime. The Masterpiece if you will.

    Took them all of the shelf for this:

    Hi all, could anyone possibly please help me with some dimensions? I want to buy some diorama stuff but am away from for a bit.

    What are the length and width of current CHUG cars? Siege Sideswipe for example?
    Same with MP cars. I guess Sideswipe works again too!

    Trying to get my head round of things are 1:35 or 1:48 (aka O scale).

    I don't have any MPs to help you there, but I do have a Seige Sideswipe on my desk. The alt is 12.5cm long and 6cm wide.

    Not sure what price you were
    Looking at but I think there’s a guy in Fb shifting one for £100, and open to offers.

    Hey, anyone know where I might pick up one of the tiny red Optimus prime figures that ship with the Ark? Bought second one recently and it’s missing - can’t get hold of the seller and it’s feeling like too much hassle to try returning/refunding. It was pretty cheap so thinking if I can buy replacements I will.
    Not too worried about the effects but the prime would be good.

    Dude, TFN was over in a flash. Felt like I didn't get half the time to catch upnwith folks that I wanted.

    I've found the original art for your avatar - from back in 2013! How was that almost a decade ago. Wow.

    I've also done a few of the graphic from the Death's Head logo which I'm pretty into. Might have to get one for myself.

    The Entertainer was doing them for £70 :( 

    I'll have a look and check if I still have them. I think I do but I'm not sure where I put them
