Ultimate Snack Eyes & Timber! -Ralph The Snake Eyes is quite nice. I already have a Timber from one of the RoC Snake's but I am tempted by this new version still. Just noticed that Flint does not appear to have his rightful gun. Even if that turns out to be one of those box magazine equipped combat shotguns it simply doesn't feel right - Flint needs to have a pump-action as far as I am concerned. Karl |

That's only started up now? I thought that had been going for a year or so already!
"There is no release schedule."
Hang on. Wait. What?!
And they seem to be going for that weird 'you can only order subs for a short amount of time' nonsense that Matty goes for.
*bangs head off table*
Pay us $300, but we won't tell you what you're getting or even when in a month you will be charged! We are awesome!

We are awesome!-Ralph The odd thing is that although official sources don't seem to indicate what figures they are making, BBTS has preorders up for the individual figures in the subscription already, with pictures and everything www.bigbadtoystore.com/bbts/search.aspx?search=2012+subscriptionso the information is out there, they just aren't very good at making it easily available when they are hawking the sub for some reason. Which seems bonkers when you are trying to market a subscription package... Karl |

Right. It looks like BBTS seem to be running a better service for getting these figures rather than Fun Pub. That is...frankly...bonkers!
Yep, if I want a figure I can just go to BBTS and order it. There are pictures.
I like the mad look of Iron Klaw.

Less than an hour, blimey as always your knowledge amazes me:)
He was asking £2 per vehicle and 50p per figure, but I long ago learnt to get the whole box when there are that many bits in the bottom. I got them for £28 I believe.
I had a wolverine before and remembered it had gone for a higher than I expected price when I eventually got around to clearing it out. UK exclusive?

The black version is. Shame there's no driver but all the missiles are there.
£28? Steal. You get more than that for the accessories on eBay
Almost everything there is 1985-1988 so look at those years on YoJoe to match figures and accessories. Some of those vehicles you have all the parts for.

I am pretty sure that one of the guns is Lowlight's (first picture of accessories, top left-hand corner under the Rocket Propelled Grenade launcher) but I would have to check to be sure.
It is a very, very good haul indeed - and at a fairly mind-boggling price. Well done that man!

I can ID most of those weapons, many by sight but it'd take forever What I suggest doing is looking up the figures you know you have onn the following pages: www.yojoe.com/action/85/www.yojoe.com/action/86/www.yojoe.com/action/87/www.yojoe.com/action/88/remove any weapons that are definitely theirs and rephoto. Then I'll have a go at the rest. |

Thanks Phil and Karl, thats saved me hours of work. I'll start sorting through the figures and vehicle to match up as much as I can. Yojoe is much more user friendly than my last visit with all those thumbnails on the main page. I do wish TFU would do the same.
When I bought them he told me he had more stuff at home so I gave him my email address and he sent a list, Mobile Command Centre, Killer Whale, Moray, Transportable Tactical Battle Platform and Mean Dog. Having had a quick look I think I already have a lot of the small parts for them. The command centre look awesome, would have loved one of those for my actionmasters back in the day.
I realised I bought Hardhead and a bag of Battle Beast from him a few weeks ago so I'm wondering if he has more Transformers too. Why cant I ever come across a G1 Transformers lot this large at a car boot. Havent seen one of those since the 1990s, but have found large lots of most other 80s lines in recent years.

Andu's favourite at #25! Tis a flawed list anyway as Flint is at #4 instead of #1. And Snow Job at #2?  What are they smoking??? The Cobra list is better as it has Destro at his rightful place at #1. -Ralph |

Flint is a poor character and shouldn't have made the top 50. Snowjob is sooooo cool.
Which list has Andu's fave at 25?
