Eh, for all the talk of 'inevitable' KO and the gnashing of teeth from fans I find myself not really caring. Quakewave has been around for a few years now, so its hardly hot on the heels of the official (lol) toy.

I'm just happy that i'll never have to question the authenticity of my Quakewave. Love that guy and no plans to sell him anytime soon.

 

Holy crap...I hope this IT course im on leads to a well paid job....there areca fuckton of robits I want in 2016...not to mention getting as much from the 2015 line as I can.

There really isn't much there I don't want....Bruticus looks great and may be the only decepticon combiner I get (if the wave 2 scarcity is anything to go by)

 

Depends on what avenue of IT you go into.

I do user/customer support, and because "anyone" can fix PCs nowadays the job is becoming severely devalued.

After working my way up in terms of wage, I now find that I'm being offered roles of less than £24k a year. Which is less than £2k more than I was on in 2002.

 

I'm doing a CCNA/MCSA entry-level network engineering course.....so there should be plenty of jobs out there

 

CW Prowl makes me happy.

The rest of that wave look pretty meh to downright awful. White Prime looks pretty good as a sort of stand-in for Nova but is still a waste of time/space/Thunderclash.

Focus on that Prowl.

 

On the other hand if you can get into DevOps is a real growth area at the moment and salaries are rather good...

The problem is getting a foothold there in the first place, luckily I was already in SysAdmin and had done development before.

 

Maybe you should just email hasbro and offer to buy the entire production run straight up. You'll be basically doing that anyway.

 

Man this is taking 30 mins per photo :-/

Annnnd booked AA 2015 Saturday pass. Who else is going? Last AA ever.

 

Last one called "Auto Assembly" probably   I'll be there Friday, Saturday and Sunday.

All the best

I've got a weekend pass AND a pickup for it. I may even have been organised enough to get a room although I can't find my emails so......maybe not. Anyway it'll be full.

 

I'll be there. As always.

(hi everyone!)

 

I might go for the day. Hopefully. It would be my first and last AA all in one.

 

I will be.....






... carrying on my usual tradition of not going.  

As for the recent revels.
Liking MP Ironhide and we just know, Ratchet is not far behind.
Now just give me MP Hound!
I might also be going for Takara Devestator.

Combiner Wars Sky Lynx? Completely out of left field and I love it! I will own him!
The rest of that wave I'll probably pass, except maybe Smokescreen.
Combaticons are looking good, but I'll probably be passing on that wave.
Think I'll be grabbing all of the Combiner Wars Legends 2016 Wave 1.

The Club has some nice figures lined up. Universe Ramjet and Amanda Skywarp out of Generations Starscream are great.
And their Windsweeper, Ruckus and Needlenose and very tempting. If only they weren't produced by the Club.

And in other news, I just grabbed a CW Leader Megs from Amazon.com for about £36 shipped. That'll do nicely.

 

I'll be there for the whole weekend, gotta make use of that lifetime pass I bought  

 

Aw dude (Boardwise), I haven't seen you in years.

 

I know. It's just to near my Canadian trip to cover the expenses and time off work.

Might try and make it down to London later in the year, especially since it was 10 years ago that I moved down.

 

10 years? Holy shit dude.

 

I know. Doesn't feel like it.

 

"10 years" haha

I've maybe been on tfw for half that time and it feels like flash.

Will say this for Ironhide, he has real 80's style ques going on, this 3p never capture... The head looks so right from the side but seeming bizarre from the front. It's a good head sculpt maybe should be shorter. Looking forward to seeing more pictures.

Can't wait for Fort max, hope they go the extra lengths for the base mode.
