Legacy Needlenose - really excellent. He feels very high-quality in hand, and all the sculpting and colours feel just right. He's not an obvious fiddle former, but I find it hard to put him down all the same.
Legacy Hot Shot - not quite to the same standard, desperately missing his mini-con especially in vehicle mode, but still pretty decent and exceeding my lowered expectations.

Bouldercrash has slipped in from Amazon. Needed to bulk out an order for lightbulbs and batteries to reach free postage. Thought he'd do :)

Spending more money than planned to get free postage is a false economy.

It is if you're buying stuff for the sake of it, but he was on the shortlist so would have got bought in the next month or so anyway.

Just whoopsed on what seems like a bargain in the old FB groups, but need to make sure it gets here through customs before I get all excited and that.
We like yellow toys. No, not Magnus.

I have made several questionable purchases from Japan.
They will be used for matts fanzine. So it's okay. It's okay.
I am properly excited about one of them though. I wouldn't quite call it a holy grail, if only because its more curiosity driving the purchase. But it was at the top of my want list for about 7 or 8 years, ever since I found out it existed.
In that time this is only the second or third Ive seen. And the first that wasn't ludicrously expensive.

As I didn't mention it earlier I got one of the £50 titan metroplex. Arrived 2 weeks ago, still not had time to open it. |

I casually stopped by a bootsale today and walked away with several g1 figures, windcharger, bumblebee and wheelie, as well as an absolutely brutalised cyclonus, and an ok springer missing his gun and rotor, but otherwise alright.
I am rather taken with springer as I never had him. You know... He's not that bad.
I also just got my doom and destruction boxed set, chopshop is nice, what I expected, but wow, absolutely smitten with barrage!
The hammer fellow is also welcome as I love all target/battle masters especially in melee flavour.
