You'll have to wait for the fanzine to come out.

These will be scanned and reproduced later in the year...

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. Had a brief panic when the tracking info went funky, but it seems okay now. 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.

I finally have a modern squeezeplay! I have always loved this odd little chap and he is one of my only g1 survivors.
I honestly never expected to get this guy, I like him, not perfect by any means, but still pretty good. He has elbows! which is the one thing the original is missing really. My copy is pretty floppy, which is my only real complaint. The shield/tail integration could be better, and the monster mode head that clips in place, really would have benefitted with being pinned.
But all in all I am pretty thrilled with this guy😁

Y'know what? Much as Squeezeplay is my favourite from this set, I think Cliffjumper might be the best toy. He's got a neat little transformation which sits just the right side of complex, and feels like I won't forget how to do it in a couple months. He's got decent ground clearance and on mine all four wheels roll pretty freely, meaning he's got some fun zoomability. I'm glad I didn't spoil this for myself by picking up Chase!

Now I want to unpack my cliffjumper....

Oh now that is very nice. A pox on Hasbro for releasing both of those only as part of box sets I'm not willing to pay for! Pox the box!
