I've got that one, and each of the alien+soldier sets and really like them. Or, I do at the £4.99 each I paid for them. The soldiers+vehicles are a bit naff, but the aliens are pretty posable and fun. I'll almost certainly be getting a few of the bigger ones.
The facehugger is very well done. Or, at least, it's... Erm... Got surprisingly detailed sculpting for a children's toy. Got to love a bit of Giger

 

Here's a sneak peek at a next small batch of stuff I'll be sticking on ebay next week. Apologies for raw unedited pics. Theyll be nice on ebay.

Drift model kit is one of the rarest weird items I've had for some years.

 

Very pleased to see this design make a reappearance, it's been far too long since the Siege Sideswipe body type was used on a release.





He's alright. A good looker. But easily the least impressive in hand feel of any of his brethren. There's a noticeable difference in some of that plastic. An undeniably handsome toy though.

And sorry to see that, @CZ Hazard. Hoping something decent comes your way soon, as well as at least some kind of payout for that kind of time with them. Got some bits of my own to shift this month but if I do make the sales I might hit you up on Dystopia, mine is shagged. Best wishes to your wife as well.

 

The gangs all here! (Ratchet’s taking the photo, obviously)
Until something amazing happens and I can afford FE Bulkhead, this is the majority of my TFP collecting done (except the good Doctor)

Still hunting (snigger) for a BH Shockwave.
Does anyone have the SDCC Shockwave with Predacon in a tube?

 

Waverider and Stranglehold!

Don’t forget we’re getting a Super 7 Bludgeon. Mind you, I’m not sure where that falls on the never to be replaced spectrum.

 

I am glad you are so well organised. The only thing missing is your postcode

 

Never realised how alien Siege Magnus' altmode was till HoF Prime came through the door. I bloody love it. Makes Magnus feel more far flung future of 2005 which is where I first saw him.

Sorry brother, that's really awful. Hope you get redundancy payment sorted, I'm sure you know all this, but be sure to check with ACAS if they're acting up.

 

Hahahaha, I knew that photograph would please you. And I haven't even unboxed him yet!

 

@CZ Hazard Commiserations, Sid, joining the chorus of well-wishing, to you & the Missus Hazard, and hope you get a rapid bounce back!

Certainly puts more minor quibbles in perspective, like for me today the fickle finger of postal fate has given me the finger.
A most cruel twist in the game of postal chicken I was running, it turned out there was someone home when the delivery was attempted BUT they were downstairs/out back pottering about and heard nowt of the Postie.
The real shitter was it was marked as delivered, then amended to an attempt made (someone clearly got a bit previous), I got all relieved/excited as I checked the status whilst attempting to bus home from work in case I just Indiana Jones made-it home to hat-snatch the delivery (I was expecting a nobody home situation)! *Sigh*

Fings crossed for a Tuesday redelivery, despite the earlier marked as delivered!

No Excitement, eh? More Super7s or R.E.D.s then, yes?

 

I have just witnessed Rebecca ferret back suplex Oreo down 2 stairs, What a manouever!  

Oreo's fine, he just looked momentarily confused and then carried on back up the stairs in the direction of Ferret HQ as it's too hot and he needs to snooze, like his appointed human he'll be much better later in the day when it cools down.

@Siege Fan,
Family Guy got raccoon occupation down pretty accurately!  

 

- good mood, making jokes
- did not unbox Kingdom Ultra Magnus yet

coincidence?

 

  There's only one way to find out! (And I still have the vodka, banisher of cares the world over.)

Edit: he’s flatter than I expected...

Decided I'm going to leave him in the box for a while since I'm enjoying Galvatron at the moment. Don't want to overdo it. Still, here's a pic for those who missed the pre-order so you can have him vicariously.  

 

Amazing diss. Bravo!

Also, one I finally got over how much I love Kingdom Galvatron, I've finally put him in alt mode. To be honest it's not the main event for me given how weird it is, and I wasn't expecting much but I'm surprised at how involved, fun and intuitive the transformation is. I just imagined he'd probably just lay down with his cannon stuck in his neck hole.

So yes, unexpected bonus that makes it even better.

This year's top ten is going to be a belter.

 

Amen to that!  

Hm. Where's @motorthing ? Also commiserations to @CZ Hazard, what a rubbish series of events.

1. Not Earthrise
2. Not Earthrise

6. Not Earthrise

Thanks dude. Any thanks to everyone else for the well wishes it really help.

Got to ask, what happened to you Dystopia?

 

Passed on this guy in Smyths as didn’t like the face-sculpt, but out of the box it’s fine and seems more Magnus-y than my previous favourite, Siege. Plus he was 35 vampire squid shipped from Comics & Cocktails. Batman digs this day.

 

@CZ Hazard,
Sorry about the job news, best of luck finding something else ASAP!

@motorthing,
Hope everything's OK and you'll be amongst us again soon!

 

If you don't do this pose, I'll be mildly peeved.
