I bet you say that to all the monolithic sadistic decepticons....

 

How are these scales working for you all?
I like

 

Kind of expected and would have been happier if Star Saber was as tall as Siege Jetfire and VS being 1-2 inches taller than Jetfire. It will do.  

This photo was also done to give a further comparison:

 

I’m honestly even more all in, they should have had Earthrise Optimus and Kingdom Rodders in there for a scale comparison though as much as the PCP scale is appreciated.

He’s a big dude, even without Victory Leo who by himself should be at least SS86 Grimlock height so this scale works really well for me.

I’m seriously considering selling my Masterpiece Starsaber sooner rather than later.

Transformers Kingdom Wave 3 Core Soundwave - Kapow Toys

I’d say that’s a good price. No interest on my part but for those still looking?

 

@Insurgent, so sorry for your loss mate. Thoughts with you and the family.

 

My favourite is still the MASK child molester one. I was 'wtf' when I first saw it.

 

@Napalm,
Fair play to you for putting family first Jon, also sounds as if your boss is very supportive which can only reduce the stress of the whole situation. Glad you were able to let your dome down  

@Insurgent,
Condolences to you and your extended family,

@John Burrows,
Thanks for the clarification, I agree it'd be a bit weird standing in a queue in WH Smith's with a guitarist from such a well known band.....my sister saw Richard Wilson on a train once and had to stop herself from saying a certain catchphrase and potentially triggering a reaction like in that episode of Father Ted  

Whilst the massive egomaniacs in entertainment can be entertaining I prefer the ones that just go about their business and don't make a big deal about it and Maiden fall into that category because they don't really have to broadcast it, their body of work speaks for itself.

@doucoo,
Amazing catchy uppery as always Doug!

@MyTea Boc,
Cheers Brian, haven't heard anything else yet so hoping no news is good news.

 

Shit dude. Condolences.

 

Target Announces New Transformers Reveals from Hasbro this Friday

Yay! Exclusives!

I'm edging away from that Year 2 Batman as well, even if you convert 50 dollars to real money   that's still more than I'd likely wanna pay. The cape looks cool but also means it's a statue requiring a lotta shelf space.
...

@Ottertron

 

By "Yay!" you mean "Exclusives can get in the sea as they only benefit scalping bastards"   

One's going to be Terrorsaur isn't it?

It's one thing having a huge cape if there's wires in it so you can do something with it but not sure that's the case with that Year 2 Batman.

Watched all episodes of Ted Lasso last night. Loved it, LOVED IT!

 

Precisement! On both counts!

 

@Napalm, & @Insurgent
Hey guys obviously I’m pretty new round here but I’ve at least followed Jon on Twitter for a while.

Sorry to hear the bad news and loss that has affected you both recently!

Reading the thread over the last hour or so and all the nice words I thought I’d drop mine in also.

If either of you ever want to chat, my door (dm’s I guess are open)

 

God fucking dammit I hate making trees so much.

 

It is if you don't have any yet.

 

While I don't want to be 'that guy', don't Victory Leo's legs look really stumpy?

 

It's been a week, did the counter reach 0 already?

 

Regards to Haslab SS/VL/VS he looks amazing, even more so after the test shots at the recent convention.

But he’s not for me, I’m not a big Victory fan (as I’ve never watched it, no idea why but I will change that).

Given we are only just over half way to the initial goal, with 35 days to go… does anyone else have concerns that this won’t reach its funding target? Let alone the 3 stretch goals!

Perhaps I’m just used to Kickstarter, where if a known company releases their next product it generally meets its goal in minutes/hours rather than what I’m seeing here.

Not sure if it being from a G1 Japanese exclusive series that has only ever had a terrible dub and scarce limited UK release on DVD isn’t helping?

 

Good afternoon All,

The Ark farce continues.

Received the replacement today. Pretty quick given I only received the original order of it on Thursday and got my complaint in to them on Friday.

Despite complaining about missing bits, having 2 left wings and clearly not a brand new unopened item that I had paid for, I thought Amazon had taken note that this was unacceptable.

I also pulled them up on no outer box and protection of the contents as well as hiding the item from prying eyes. Shipping labels plastered all over the product box and the box looking like it had gone a couple of rounds with Mike Tyson. Admittedly not in the league of box trashing that @nice sideburns has experienced recently. A big red flag for me was the re-application of cellotape to the product box that my son’s guinea pigs Waffles and Snowballs



could have done a far superior job to make it look like the contents hadn’t been tampered with.

This is how I received the replacement about 30 mins ago.

Deja vu!  



My complaint and feedback clearly fell on deaf ears.  

At least the product box is in much better nick than the first one despite no outer box/protection. The labels this time are stuck on the back of the product box rather than the front for the first Ark order. This still fills me with absolute joy that I will spend 15 mins of my time to remove which I won’t get back.  

What are the chances of getting another set with two left wing tips and missing contents?  

Thank you Amazon. I was offered discount on the initial order but I would have been missing bits and two left wings are not helpful. That was not an option.

Refund or replacement were the other options and I foolishly went with the latter. Will check the contents later this evening.

For those of you still awaiting your copy of the Ark, I hope it comes with less aggro and is in top notch order.

 

So I have got a SHITLOAD of Transformers instructions.

They just sit in a box. I maybe use them once. So why do I keep them?

Honestly should I just chuck em?

 

Yes. Unless they're vintage 1984 Optimus instructions to go with your vintage 1984 MIB Optimus.
