  1. Hey guys; quite likely I might be able to make my way stateside in the next few weeks so was wondering if I could absorb a little of your knowledge - are there any offers on TF toys at the moment? I'm a little scared of buying a shedload of cool stuff at walmart, only find TRU / Target had it all half price *blush*

     

    Also, does anybody know if there are any nice store exclusives out at the moment?

     

    Cheers everyone :)

  2. ahh Kaybees, nice tip, I know where a few of those are but would never have thought of looking cos I thought they were TF-less. Cheers :)

     

    I keep seeing pictures of stuff in Universe packaging... we don't have any in the Uk which says to me it's either old stock or the US has more than I thought. Anybody know what is currently out under the Universe banner please? :)

    Kaybee still has a lot of old Universe figures out, however I beleive Universe has been discontinued, with the last of the waves as the Target exclusives. The new micromasters are being sold under the Cybertron banner. I could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure of it. Oh, and I checked a local KB and they still have micromaster devastator too, they ALWAYS have good prices, I got Energon Galvy for 24.99.

     

    They still have micro devs? deary me, he's even been out over here! That mean there's a chance they may still have other micromasters (defensor/superion/train dudes etc) ?

  4. So when are you heading to Florida and where?

     

    I'm heading down there for vacation in Mid July to Ft. Lauderdale. I just hope no hurricanes come along while I'm there! :blink:

     

    Orlando dude :) But looks like I'm gonna beat ya to the bargains as I'm giong this month! :D

     

    While I remember - are the micromaster combinors still in stores? And has alt Prime surfaced properly or is he still in the "occasional sightings" stage?

     

    Cheers for the replies everyone #US1#

  5. I don't think the graphic novels are in ALL stores, only a select few. As far as Alts, Target and Walmart have a good selection of new ones up to OP, plus all the new Cybertron goodies and Target has a great sale on the U. Devastator sets as well as Energon bonus packs. Both stores I've seen the new BW 10th ann wave 2, Target has wave 1 is on sale for 8 bucks. The sale will probably be over in a couple of weeks though. TRU usually gets stuff late around here but lately they've been the ones who've had all the hard-to-finds, Nemesis Breaker and such, also they are a good source for older Alts like Shockblast.

     

    That sounds excellent, cheers mate :) What's in the different beastie waves?

  6. Hey peeps! My holiday to Florida's really creeping up on me now so I've come for some advice please :) I'll list a few questions I have. ANY help given would be MUCH appreciated :D!

     

    1. Any sales on at the moment?

     

    2. I'm mainly interested in picking up as many alternators as possible, with a splattering of other stuff. Possibly the RID "devastator" repaints if they're still about, maybe even BW10th figures, but I'm not sure if they're out - where would be the best place to start? :)

     

    3. Walmart & Target online are listing G1 graphic novels... any idea if these are available in store, as the sites don't ship over to the Uk.

     

    Thanks a bunch fellas, much appreciated #US1#

  7. It's that time of year again :D

     

    In roughly 12 weeks I'm off the the good old USA for transformers buying and eating... oh and mayb a holiday! #US1#

     

    So in time honoured fashion I ask thee; which transformers (alts moreso) am I likely to find on shelves in 12 weeks time? WIll Skids & Prime be warming shelves? Will Mirage be invisable? What do you think? #US1#

  8. Are you involved with the site DP, or just helping to spread the word?

     

    I got the email from them asking to do that, but I thought, if people promote it like that they're giving the site an unfair advantage, thus making the number 1 spot meaningless

     

    I'm a staff member at thetransformers.net Gaz... so it's not spam for spam's sake I guess :P Not involved with that other v7dotcom company, but they're giving a cash prize to whichever site promotes them the best, so we're trying to promote thetransformers.net's drive against all the bigger corporate sites who are wading in.

     

    We're currently placed number 38 out of over quarter of a million so we're doing quite well :) But at this stage, for the final push against the big boys, every link counts :) Any help by pasting the link in sigs etc would be greatly appreciated :)

  9. Hi guys. Do any of you also post at thetransformers.net? I do and currently, I'm helping the site in a competition. If you can spare a few minutes, please help too, so something transformers related can have an impact on the world wide web #US1# !!!

     

    Just slap V7ndotcom Elursrebmem[/url ] onto anything on the web, (minus the spaces betwwen the url and the ] ) - internet sites, forums, blogs, and especially forum signatures! etc Anything!. If we are able to get the site to number 1 on Google we'll get some funding for it! #US1#

     

    Thanks for reading and I hope as many of you as possible will be willing to help!

     

    Till all are one!

  10. Never noticed before but mirage is packn heat big time!!

     

    THis guy is tops on my want list as well & I don't even care what his alt mode is :P

    just as long as they do indeed make him blue!

     

    I can't help but think that... he ain't looking much like an alternator yet. I can't explain it :S

  11. Tracks doesn't have a great deal in the upwards direction... but pretty much all of them have decent enough head articulation... enough to pose. Especially shockwave. His head comes clean off, giving him unlimited 360 degree movement :)

  12. Now I may be wrong... but I've been told that the reason Decepticharge's head is ill fitting, is because it was originally made to fit the Mustang... it was going to be painted red and called Windcharger.

     

    As I say, I may be wrong. personally, due to the bucket-head, the chest and the big gun, I always fely Decepticharge was meant to be Megatron; but if that other rumour is right, my thoughts must be wrong.

  13. Howdy everyone. Hope you had a great Christmas :) I got me a Pre G1, grey Radio Shack Shockwave.

     

    Now I didn't know what to expect, but I got very lucky. This is the closest to unplayed with I've ever seen. Looks like a reissue :) And the box is very very good too :)

     

    It got me wondering, assuming this is mint; what would it have been worth had it actually been MISB? Because I didn't honeslty think I could've gotton one so fresh looking only MIB :)

  14. As SS49 implied, it's Galvatron rising from the lava pit, ala "Five Faces of Death," when Cyclonus and the Sweeps retrieved him from where he landed after the showdown with Rodimus Prime.

     

     

    And it looks far better than that travesty of a re-issue.. @puke@

     

    *continues the quest for a -real- Galvatron*

    best Galvatron line ever...

     

    "who interrupts my plasma bath!!!!!!!!!" @loll@

  15. "I got second place once, but never received my prize.."

     

    what did you win second place on here?

    Prowl's sig contest......

    ooooh I remember that too :) He made a 3rd place prize for me to stop me feeling left out (after comming 3rd out of 3 :P) but I felt bad about the postage to the UK and PM'd him saying either send it to the winner or you.

    Never got a reply though...
