I hope Gears happens soon. I am very very close. I only require 7 more Transformers figures to complete desired collection. 7! 3 of which are up coming. That's four to Doomsday. Well this is very encouraging. I'm sure we were at a point a while back where you were done. No but, yeah but, no but- they started doing Dinobots and Mini-Autobots and Insecticons. They started doing figures I never thought they'd do. All neatly in-scale. I... thought I could live without Dinobots, and I settled for Minis and Insects that were too small. I was wrong about that. I have drawn a line in the sand: THIS FAR AND NO FURTHER. There are FOUR characters who do not have figures that are required to reach that line and complete THE '84+. And 3 that are upcoming (although Big Phil still hasn't provided a photo of Swoop). After that... WILL BE OMEGA DAY.And I will be free.

So does 84+ mean cartoon season one? Or are you including all the cars?

Just realised I'm in danger of doing a Pinwig as I've not opened any of the TFN haul yet. That's going to be this weekends job.

Just realised I'm in danger of doing a Pinwig as I've not opened any of the TFN haul yet. That's going to be this weekends job. Only reason I opened mine was that I needed to jettison some mass on Monday to get it all back from Birmingham. I thought that in the process I'd lost Clampdown's accessories. Only for them to turn up in the washing machine, having apparently migrated into a trouser pocket in the case... A lot of the haul remains unopened - the Exia isn't getting opened until I start building it, and the VF-29 is earmarked to be opened next week because reasons. Might muck about with the D.I.A Commander trailer this weekend though, been waiting a while to get one of those for Classics Prime. Karl

My Brawn doesn't have a gun.
I've heard tell of people emailing Hasbro to get missing bits, what's the procedure there?

No idea, sorry.
If you still have the box insert he was tied to it should have been in a slot, bottom left corner

Yeah, I've still got all the box bits in front of me. Didn't feel or spot anything falling out. Ah well.

If it's anything like me and Skids' back wheel, you'll find it down the back of the sofa in six months.

Opened Legends Scourge last night, and what a difference using two different plastic colours and a small bit of paint makes.
As the Scourge, the SS86 is obviously superior, but this guy is grand. Can't wait to pop the Sweep head out later and see what that doofy moustache looks like on him!

Love that version of Scourge. As I've said before, the Legends figures are why I've not been so fussed about picking up most of the Studio Series versions of the same characters. Well, that and space and Sunak.

Someone needs Thundercracker and Starscream
And the Hot Rod is superb!

I stopped at Pink Rod. Not being able to get Starscream (cost from RK prohibitive) put me off collecting the line. Which saves me cash so there is that!

I picked up Pink Rod mostly out of FOMO, and then only during a Pulse sale. He's really nice, but it's not a line I feel an urge to collect.

Mini-snarl & Bombshell here today. I really don't like his head - it's been badly thought out. Mini snarl is cute! Great robot mode, alt was going well until I realised that was it with the arms. Look at it from the right angle and you can almost ignore the hands.

I have acquired a sealed (now not sealed) Selects Combat Megatron from eBay for the princely sum of 18 quid. He seemed a bit unnecessary when he came out, but in this era of unreleased G2 prototype colours toys he has become part of a team.

Apparently I have a SS86 Ratchet on the way, fingers crossed that nothing bad happens and that the '84 shelf is finally completed!
I also eBayed a random cheap Lift-Ticket at the weekend, so he should be here soon too.

I'm going to enjoy it.
At least until updated Gears and Windcharger get announced.

I can't wait for a new Windcharger, but I do worry a little about that Sunbow head.
