I only bought two for myself at Botcon, had planned to buy more at the time, but the price hike on exclusives and my lack of money at the time prevented me buying them.

I may have expressed some negative opinions on this matter elsewhere on the forum today.

Oh I also got Movie Evac (blackout repaint/remould), which I keep forgetting about but was thrilled to find at a reasonable price.

Crap, and a Big Convoy, but that was a swap with Nick, so cost me nothing. Nothing! Well nothing new anyway.

Picked up what look to be like Cybertron Scout-class figures.
One of them is a green Tron-like bike and the other is a blue Armoured car with tank treads at the back. No idea who they are, but they are pretty good.

The bike sounds like the repaint of Cybertron Ransack, while the blue half-track sounds like Scattorshot. I had a modest haul from AA, which is a relief because I had enough stock left over from Toy-fu to comfortably fill my suitcase and an extra box without it! 11 Doctors set from Nigel plus another one for an American Who-fan. One of the three spherical spring-loaded Rock Lords "Action Shock Rocks" from the final year, very hard to come by. Rock Lords Brimstone, a bit bedraggled but he'll do. Fan Club G2 Ramjet, swapped with mr Kiernan for a Korean boxed Big Convoy TFU Rumble & Frenzy, a very nice two-pack that I hope Hasbro releases singly at some point. Just not too soon so I don't immediately regred splurging 60 quid on the Japanese ones! TFU Wreck-gar, because I had given up finding the Hasbro release and he's soooo shiny -Nick

Guessed right.
After looking around with the names given they turned out to be Ransack GTS and Scattorshot - sans weapons and cyberkeys.

The only thing I had signed was the receipt from Nick to say he'd got the toys I bought him, and countersigned by James Roberts as a witness. OK, yes, the receipt was a Last Stand tpb but .....

The only thing I had signed was the receipt from Nick to say he'd got the toys I bought him, and countersigned by James Roberts as a witness. OK, yes, the receipt was a Last Stand tpb but ..... Quite possibly the finest receipt ever. My AA Haul can be divided into three general categories:- The High Priority Items: German Comic-Magazin translations fanzine Cybertronian Times Polaris Special Nick Roche/Josh Burcham prints (now, where around here can I buy decent frames..) The General Purchases: AA2010 mug (a back up for the one I keep at home and the one I keep in the office) Cybertron Hot Shot Henkei (I think) Silverbolt HTFD Strafe (I love the display team style colours) from Nigel ROFD Wreckage Animated Arcee (who sadly can't quite seem to a proper wuxia-style reverse grip with her swords, so she shall just have to duel Terradive with a conventional grip) the Smokescreen repaint of ROTF Skystalker/Sunspot DOTAMan Thundercracker Marvel UK 172, 183 - 187, 199, 201 -205 The Gifts: A Cyberverse Hatchet from Nick of Toy-Fu fame Early Birthday Presents from the other Scots folks: A copy of Transformers: Annihillation by David Cian, which was read on the way back from the Con on Monday...... A River Song (from Doctor Who) coffee mug. So that every time I have a cup of coffee it means that woman shows up again *sighs resignedly* and perhaps the best thing I acquired all convention:- The Pursuit of Cobra: Arctic Threat Destro in all his Arctic blinged glory. He shall remain duly sealed until next week, so that he may be opened on my birthday itself. Karl

Surely it can't be customed unless the club put the membership fee price as the value? Turnbull did not get a dispatch notice. In other news, Botcon AM Thunder is the first AA toy to be freed from the pile. So bright. So very bright. -Ralph Don't tempt me,must resist, must resist!

I am surprised that dispatch emails are not sent for the yearly figure. The one time I bought something from the store I got a dispatch notification.
It does seem silly for them to sell off the inventory before subscribers have their toys yet.
