Yes, the Hyena. He was deffo called both Cackle and Jawbreaker. Cackle is indeed a Maximal. Wasn't this mold re-coloured in a Universe figure? Frostbite or something? Good fig, bit kibbley on the arms as robot, but git fook off sword to have fun with. He's enjoyed fighting Transmetal Cheetor.

There was indeed a Universe version called Frostbite. He was a Decepticon.
Be careful with Cackle's metallic paint. It usually flakes something awful.
(It's Iguanus, by the way, not Ignius which makes him sound like a Rock Lord.)

I got Sky Lynx yesterday and I love him to pieces. I didn't realise he was so big or that he was motorised! I had him walk (very slowly) across the office yesterday.

What a coincidence! I just got G2 Clench yesterday, along with reissues Sixshot (he's bloody massive), Jetfire with almost all his armour, and Prentender Pincher. It's been a good week for toys! |

Wow it has been a while since i have posted on here, alot has changed. Picked up sky lynx yesterday not only did i get CUTA, it hurt but i got a again when the guy bought the package to the desk, it looked like it had been used a door stop. He just looked at the box looked at me as if to say '' a bit unlucky that ''. The box inside was crushed, sky lynx was o.k but now box is ruined. F***ing parcel farce.  |

Ye Gods I hate the Parcelfarce,
I often wish to skelp their arse.
Though they pale next to Royal Mail,
From their bones their skin I shall flail.

A set of trainbots arrived yesterday. Bought them as junkers on Yahoo Japan so was rather happy to find them in fairly good condition. One ofthe torso bots was missing its head and the other torso bot lacked wheels but other wise rather nice besides what I assume is pretty heavy yellowing of one of them unless its meant to be that colour.
I think I'll be in search of a KO for the combiner parts now.

MAGMATRON IS HERE! AND HIS GOAL IS THE COMPLETE TAKE OVER OF THE PREDACON ARMY AND THE DESTRUCTION OF THE MAXIMALS!!!!!!!!
Totally excellant fig! Just as great as Magnaboss. Love the three dinos, and the combined form is such a design treat. Whome ever designed him is a genious. Not quite as poseable as your Optimus Primals or Megatrons, but I've already had him posed well slaughtering Insectoid Predacons (there's a Predacon Civil-War going on currently in the Shockprowl house of Transformers Fun- Insectoids lead by Tripredacus, and Dinos lead by Magmatron. Great place, the inside of my head.).
By Christmas chaps, you were right 'bout his transformation though. Very tricky! But satisfying! Love him love him love him!

Grr, Magmatron is very high up on my Wantlist! How much did you get him for Ian? I got him from America, an online shop called Toyarena. Inc postage he was 30 pounds!!!! Couldn't belive it. The fig itself was only 20 pounds. Ian |

Great price for Magmatron!
Just got Pounce and Wingspan yesterday, complete and in perfect condition, £9.99 off eBay! Postage was £7.50 but, Americans are brutal at overcharging.

Oh yeah, I was happy with the price, it's just the postage label said $7.50, and I got charged that figure in sterling approximately.

A good day for parcels, I got TMNT Buzzrock and Multiflex from Nick and I thought the parcel was a HLJ order to start with because of the box  . Raphael's TMNT GYM playset also came. I also got my TFsource Christmas Dinobots. I had some trouble with Swoop being really stiff to transform and had to losen the screws on his back a little so his chest panel could separate. Nice little set though, although Slag/Flamethrower was a better choice for a reindeer. Looks like Constructicons are next... Predacons would have been better IMO. ===KEN |

But there's already a Chinese World's Smallest Constructicons set doing the rounds! Bah.
Predacons would indeed have been better.

New additions to the ever expanding Shockrprowl Beast Wars army.
Transquitto - excellant, large fig, one of my fave BW figs so far.
Snarl - great little Maximal.
Guiledart - Magmatron's right hand mand has a bit of general kibble, but overall a top fig.
Mags now has a good collection of troops to wage civil-war against Tripredacus and his Insectors!!!

Glad to hear that the Ratchet Blaster has been well received. It is rather a well done toy I think personally.

Forgot to mention at the weekend (the curse of a poor memory) but courtesy of Nick I have acquired a Binaltech Asterisk Broadblast, and a Binaltech Skids.
Both rather nice toys. Love the engineering on the mold. Has some clever touches but not insanely counterintuitive. I was able to transform Broadblast almost entirely without instructions, whereas something like Dead End left me growling with fury.
I think Broadblast is my favourite of the two - the silver colour scheme is the more interesting. However, they share a great mold and a both quite nice toys. (Shan't be using the flame stickers on Skids though - somehow it doesn't seem appropriate on a city runaround).
Ta muchly Nick.

Alt Skids is one of my fave TFs. He looks great next to the reissue G1 Skids I got off you, Karl. But yeah, the flames don't quite look right do they? Reprolables do some G1ick stickers for Alt Skids, but I think some painting is involved as well.

Depends if Skids enjoys painting as a leisure pursuit. Have you asked him?
