    Are you selling together? Know someone who is after a Thrust wondering what sort of price we're looking at

    Radar cannon tank from Silverlit toys Multimac
    A rather niche toyline, not much info out there on it!

    Amazing. I had completely forgotten about it.
    It's one of those obscure toylines which I experienced in Italy, when we flooded with every possible plastic toy and KO.
    I found this page
    5-in-1 Galaxy Series Planet Explorer (MIB), Multimac by Silverlit Toys 1988

    Another random toyline: Army Gear

    A bump for my sales in case theres someone out there who hasnt seen it! Tidied up the list and we're over the worst of the covid so shoudl be ready to send again this week!

    'rules' of the road:

    - all prices include uk postage/fees, blah blah.

    - all are boxed and in excellent condition unless otherwise stated. some of the siege onwards boxes are a bit ratty, due to the new packaging!

    - photos of anything available on request

    - some of these were hard to price so go easy on me!

    - will bundle a bit of someone wants several but I've actually found boxes for them as i've gone along so they are ready to go separately

    - only trade i’m after is a boxed studio series 86 movie ironhide, and thats ideally for creatures collide.

    Behold Galvatron pack slightly snapped back tab 35. doesn't affect transformation, its basically one of the pegs you can mount the rail guns on in alt mode if you choose to do so, it still just hangs on loosely.

    pretty much what Q Prime said, the bots who were on the last fan vote all those years ago have happened and bar a few exceptions have been great figures, Spinister and Needlenose being on par with eachother

    It's the Pocket Toys KO of Iron Factory's 'War Giant'.

    Clearly I could never risk buying anything Diaclone. Seems dangerously more-ish, like heroin.

    Based on everything else in the picture, it's probably Iron Factory's one.

    Sideways does more than Cyberverse could
    To show Hasbro what is right and good


    Sideways does more than Cyberverse can, to justify Hasbro's ways to man.jpg

    Thought I'd show the alt-modes! Starscream is excellent and definitely staying. Soundwave is solid as a truck but translucent as [ice - Ed]. Bee has an edge to the plastic, carries as if from afar the aroma of shampoo.

    Wish they'd made them all from the same stuff as Starscream, which is like the plastic of Slaug, Arcee & Prowl. Of course, Sideways has them all beaten (literally!) hollow, but those are the days that will not come again.

    (I just heard a quiet voice saying, "Don't be stupid, be a smartie! Spend your coins upon Third Party!" Am ignoring it...Optus Plexus with yellow eyes? MMC Protectobots? Never heard of any of 'em...)

    And yet, plenty of younger folks get into g1. Comics certainly have a role there. But yeah, before you know it the cheeseburgers will claim us all and the bayverse kiddos will be the old hands of the tf fandom.

    I enjoy your shots!

    grand certainly Brought it. He was a targetmaster and powermaster away from having every gimmick going at the time.


    I don't think too hard about it. Just they at one point had the numbers and fought across the galaxy so yeah big. As @Toadimus Prime said furman had drawn the scale into 1,000 of years rather than millions. Shame it was discarded.

    I had one or two myself. Kinda cheap from what I recall, well stocked in the local dunnes stores beside the manta force gear.

    What @Q Prime said. Currently inhabiting shelves at Game for 15 bob (if you can find one that stocks him - website won't tell you, only that they have Cyberverse Deluxes in stock, or not).
