The meet is on Saturday usually around 4-4:30pm. And pretty much hanging out in one of our rooms raving with glow sticks/in the bar being told off for throwing a frisbe around (Jon!) and getting very drunk!

 

I'm toying with the idea of having a "parts party" in my hotel room on the Friday night, kick start the convention a little bit. It's a great US Botcon tradition and I think it needs to be bought across the Atlantic kicking and screaming. What do people think?

 

I'd be deffo up for that Sid. Also have stuff i could offer for trade or sale for example. Top notch idea and if you need a hand doing anything or if you go ahead with it give me a shout

 

Good shout. NUFAN I saw a few times, mostly because the mighty Nerf Herder were supporting them.

NOFX I've only seen once, they were superb live though. I tend to prefer their earlier stuff though (Punk In Drublic is pretty much the seminal Calipunk record for me!).

I forgot I got reprimanded for that. It wasn't even me throwing it!  

Sid, superb idea mate. Really up for that!!!

 

DOTM Que arrived today, better than average deluxe and all the extra tools and weapons really help fill out the character.

Sitting fiddling with him when it hit me, that's me completed my movie line want list.

No doubt it'll all start up again come movie 4, but as it's a couple of years away I'm embracing the satisfaction/sadness I always feel when I get that 'last figure'.

So now I can focus on finding 3 RID Vehicons to keep my Prime shelf up to date and use AA for tracking down the last 23 Beast Era molds I need to put that to bed.

Feels strange to be this organised, as some of you may have noticed I'm usually an impulsive/chaotic collector at best.

 

Hmm, anybody on this thread from York?
Just been speaking to my mate and he told me he knows a guy that has a collection including a "4ft thingie" which i'm assuming to be Fort Max?

 

He's more a 26" thingie.

I had the same thought the other day when I noticed my white coloured 3 pack Universe Galvatron had two right feet.

Left right duplicate parts is one of the handiest things to swap in person I'd say.

Anyway seems like a grand idea.

 

How come cinemas no longer want to show films in 2D at normal times? Mine will only be showing Avengers in 2D every weekday at 1.20 with tow of those showings being subtitled, means i've had to swap some shifts to get Wednesday off just so i can see it in 2D before it stops being shown.

Anyway i've got a MP grimlock for sale if anyones interested as well as the last bits i'm selling, check my sales for pics etc.

 

I'm at uni in York, not heard about this though!

 

Was that Dave?

 

I went! I got Becky Cloonan to do me a sketch of Octopunch...

 

Reprolabels come from Canada and I think they print everything to order.
Normally up to about 3 weeks from when you order or less. If you get a shipped email it should arrive within about 7 working days.
They've been a bit slower recently as they've been busier I think. Why letters from Canada take so long I dunno. But everyone blames customs

 

Hopefully this may help a bit if you still need answers.

RID Arcee Pros: More accurate overall look, chest for example. Smaller size is much nicer. Much better looking face, I think it's mainly the eyes. Arms are shorter and have the blue and silver on them. Comes with a blaster and blade. Transformation is a lot simpler and easier to do. Bike modes are almost identical.

RID Arcee Cons: No pink shades, they are silver but it does have all the areas in silver and at least is consistent. Only has 1 blade which is a shame. It's still too big really, shorter than the FE but about the same scale to match the smaller RID.
Blaster is way too big! Almost want to cut it in half. But at least there is a gun and it's a nice rifle on other figures like Voyager Prime.

The Takara AM Micron Arcee is worse in my opinion. Unless you like pink nipples sticking out the side!

Am i missing something?

 

4ft thingie... *snigger*

 

I think so. Or Owain, maybe.

You won't.

 

 

I just remember the restaurant manager giving us the shittiest look I have ever seen!

 

Yeah, it was up there with the time I got kicked out of the Vatican
