About 5 pages late because its been a busy one, but if you're going for a 90s read and want paper Marvel are currently powering through that era with the Epic Collections.

 

Dunno if anyone’s mentioned yet but Kapow have given me tracking info for the new Optus Prominon if anyone else pre-ordered it

 

The change in quality when I was playing Cyberpunk 2077 going from my XBONE to the Series X was staggering.

 

Oh shit I forgot about this one coming out, there’s me thinking I’d have a relatively light finance pounding January as I had only clocked my first payment for Haslab Deathsaurus to @Apollux being my main expense unless I happen across Breakdown, Hot Shot and Needlenose

 

Hard on right now, as vertical as I can make it

 

I looked into them about a month ago when I was asking myself whether I’d like Diaclone deco SS’86 dinos, and I don’t think I would - the POTP molds which be much better for the wallet!

 

I'm gonna have to replay that

 

It was my first experience with 60fps. BUTTERY smooth.

 

Mega Construx Land Shark is £14 on Amazon @bcm77 and anyone else.

 

I've played 60fps in loads of stuff before and can accept 30fps but it's also so much more of a hit when you play something you know off by heart is double the frame rate. Plus with tge upgraded textures and such its just so damn pretty.

 

Hi, hope you are all doing as well as can be, seems it’s a great day for deliveries!

First new additions since Blaster but well worth the wait, now if I could only get Rumble at a fair price he will complete this set up nicely.

 

I think it just hit more because I had just started a new game in Cyberpunk just before my XBONE went tits up, so I got the Series X to continue the game and I just remember walking back and forth on one spot of the sidewalk, spinning the camera around and just oohing and aahing over how smooth it felt  

Plus, now the cutscenes in Alan Wake Remastered don't stutter so I can enjoy my favourite game again without getting annoyed with framerate issues.

 

: O

ps, tache is back - more80s than renaissance but I thought of you as I emerged it from my face.

Read around the 10k pages a bit and it’s when trypty was coming out. That feels like just yesterday to me!! Absolutely shocking

 

It is indeed, Breakdown arrived a day early as a bonafide yuletide miracle to set up a Merry Menasor Xmas.


Now, bring on the replacement 3rd party knees!

I have to say in-hand Breakdown is not too bad, I think Toyhax stickers for his windows should be enough.

Shame there's the over-engineered weird backpack thing going on to no real benefit for him and Wildrider. Simplifying there would likely have allowed the budget for a better re-shell/weapon for Breakdown and potentially proper feet for Deadend.

Anyway all in all, very happy to have a much nicer Menasor in the collection.

Cheers everyone!

 

It’s been a bit of a week for me with Transformers, first Breakdown arrived, then I found Kickback in TK Max, and now my Rumble has arrived from IDT



He looks good, but the lack of any elbows is a bit of a bummer. I’m still to put the jack hammers on him, but it’s nice to have both of the little guys to go with my Soundwave.

I have got to the point where I think I might be being a little more selective with my purchases now. Unless there is a Computron on the horizon I don’t need any more combiners, the Beast Wars cast is pretty much finished and now I am thinking that if I can get hold of Armada Starscream, Hotshot, Optimus (when he comes out) & Megatron (ditto) it will make a nice little Armada display.

Armada was the last cartoon series I watched as a youngster, it didn’t leave as big an impression on me as G1, but to have a few of the main characters would be great.

On a totally different note, I’ve been a member of this community for a little under 5 years now, mainly lurking rather than posting, but wanted to say what a great community it is on here and wanted to congratulate everyone on reaching 20,000 pages.

 

Aaa! Woke up...what happened? Hey it's the UKTD. Crikey! You guys rock, to be sure!

 

Saw we were approaching the 20,000 page landmark earlier today and hoped to join the club posting on that page. Here on page 20,004 I’m not only late for the party, it’s finished! There’s some good spirit and humour between there and here.

RM arrived with my Legacy Evolution deluxes today (yay!) but my wife was out for only 15mins all day and we’ve just got a Ring doorbell so she was also able to send me a video of not getting them. I’m back home tomorrow and hopefully RM try again.

***

I don’t know what to say. I’m truly sorry and my sympathies.

 

Not wanting to be the spirit of disillusionment or anything BUT from my usage of RM & their tracking if I'm parsing it correctly they do not auto-retry delivery the next working day like, say, Yodel but, unless left with a neighbour, or a nominated safe place, the items will be collectable from your local DO, and the 2nd working day after a missed delivery is usually the earliest that you can *book* a redelivery after having missed one. Though I am happy to be corrected if I am wrong about that, I'd advise checking your tracking for the options.

 

Wait.. I'll have been on this site 5 years next July. Howwww.? Where did the time go?
