    Cheers!

    I was eyeing Legacy Nightprowler for a while now (£22.99 which is fairly cheap). Now he is £11.27!

    Seven were sold in the last 24 hours so I bought him an hour ago so I'm not too late!

    Edit-
    Ok I saw the newest Evo line on the website and it says they got them at my local Toysmyths and it was mostly right. It says they had three Crashbar but I never saw any. No biggie as I wasn't planning to buy him straight away.

    Edit 2- Dammit, I forgot to check if they had Bulkhead on sale earlier today when I order Nightprowler.
    They did had the Wreck N Ruin version (which I did wanted) for £17 and the last one too! I had just went to the toliet and when I came back, someone bought the last one and is currently sold out!!

    Lots of new bits at Bristol Longwell green Smiths. But no prices... yet. Seening the new voyagers in person I gotta say Cheetor was rather.... lacking shall I say.

    Ok The Entertainers in North Wales finally got new Transformers stocks aka Earthspark.

    They haven't had new stocks since last Christmas when they only had scrap Kingdom Core class and a lone SS86 Wheeljack in the clearance shelf.

    Sure the selection is small but this store is tiny.

    Bournemouth Castlepoint Smyths had Legacy Evolution Twincast, Metalhawk, Shrapnel, Animated Prowl, Crashbar and Crosscut earlier. Plus the repackaged TMII Megatron.

    Usually within a few days. Pulse says 10th April, so over the course of next week is likely.

    The Seekers 3-pack (Acid, Ion and Nova Storm) is down to £45 on there. I'm too new to post links yet, but that's a good deal if anyone's looking for them. I got them for almost double that on Amazon a while ago.

    While it is a good deal but I only liked Ion Storm (the other two colours are too bright). I ended up buying Ion Storm on his own for £19 recently (was £22 but was able to counter offer to £19).

    The Impactor and the fozzilizer pack is abit tempting though.

    I partly went for them as I wanted more Seekers generally, and Thundercracker/Skywarp were just going for ridiculous prices that I couldn't justify (I only really got back into collecting TFs a year ago, when I saw RED Soundwave on a shelf and thought he'd go nice alongside my OG G1 Optimus. Although the RED figure was a bit pants, it kind of got me hooked again, but I missed out on a few that I really want as a result - TK/SW being two, and the SS 86 Hot Rod being another).

    Oh yeah I know.

    I wanted the Thundercracker version but all of them except for the rainmakers were expensive as heck on the second market. So yeah Ion Storm was the cheapest options I could get my hand on.
    He is still nice but abit too plain for being too blue.

    I agree they are a bit too plain - a touch more variation in their paint would have been a definite improvement.

    I guess I could custom paint him to have abit more white and maybe abit of red. There was another blue seeker next to Hotlink first onscreen appearance (on his wiki page) that look better than Ion Storm first apperance.
    That if I can be bother since I need to research abit like if the paint I used will cause the dust to stick on it or etc.
