I just acquired Shard of the Infernac universe.
No details given on this character, but I like the Christmas Tree Helicopter alt-mode.

What's that you say, Mrs P? Can I go to Smyths to pick up some Barbie tat you've bought as a present for a relative? Why yes, yes I can.
*scans website for any recently discounted figures*
I now own Magneous and err... Gamer Edition Starscream.
And I can legitimately claim it isn't my fault. I was *sent* there.

A damn shame the Transformers section is on the way to the pick up counter.

Mrs P clearly passive-aggressively manipulated you into a position where you would fail to not buy toys.

picked up a v. cheap KO g1 smokescreen. was hoping it was the one that is basically bluestreak in smokescreen colours, but its one i haven;t seen before, with the smokescreen front bumper, but bluestreak rear windows without spoiler. poor build quality, it just doesn't sit together that well, i wonder if it was molded from a toy rather than a master mold.

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.
