Complete madness, they've glued joints that are already locked in to place by gluing elsewhere.
I've salvaged the feet with only slight damage to one joint which are the hard to find bits.

Guren Dragotron has turned up in double quick time from Japan. Big box so I was expecting CUTA, but he escaped despite being valued high enough to incur the wrath of the fun police. Given the lovely paint jobs on his minions I was expecting to be wowed by this, but I'm not sure it's much better than the Hasbro version. Clear red wings are nice, but there's a lot of flat red on the body.
Still, that means I've got all of the anime characters in their Takara versions now.

I now own Doombox and his Battle Disco. As my TR collection grows, how could I not? I just have to hope that maybe ToyFu has a Blaster now, cuz I'm not paying anywhere near retail for him.

Another Missile transport - this one completely sans accessories - and the rear half of a tanker Transport, all of which will add to any future MM city.
Also a MM Power Punch as my existing one has parted company with his gun barrel which is awol

I feel the MM urge. My MM collection shrank to Hot Rod and Erector where once I had most of them. This may have been a mistake, especially with Omega Siegepreme coming.

Roadhandler and Swindler arrive. Roadhandler minus a rear wheel. Grrr!
I also added Pteraxadon to my order as it stayed under the £15 VAT charge.
Oh and Frenzy and Friends picked up from Argos at the weekend. I think its the first time Ive played with the Ravage and Laserbeak moulds. They are rubbish but kind of fun..... as is Toy-Fu-lucky-dip-bot.

I'd forgotten about her. Was assuming she'd show up on Kapow one day, but I guess not...

I would love some G1 Monsterbots, especially Doublecross. Always wanted him, and them, and adore the TR remakes which are still on display on my shelves.

I have a Canadian boxed Doublecross on the way, Repugnus continues to elude me but I will resume the hunt again after TFN

Welp, an eBay seller has managed to lose Legends Windblade somewhere in China, so the hunt is back on. At least I got the full refund from them...

However, Legends Overlord has arrived super quickly this morning, so that's excellent. Going to save him for later...

ENERGON SWOOP found at Glasgow Comic Con. The search of 14 years for this wonderfully shit toy is finally over. At last I can form MEGA DINOBOT.

Just managed to win a couple of the G1 Japanese headmaster exclusives, well, at least the boxes are original, not sure that the actual heads themselves are

The remakes don't have the stampings on them, the guy who did them was very careful to make them distinguishable, unlike some of the other KO companies

Aye, the anticipation is part of the fun I guess! There weren't pictures of them out of the box, so I was a bit suspicious, but they were medium cheap and other people bid so they may be legit!

If you dont have the repros I can take comparison pics of mine if it helps. I believe they have different rivets too.
