As Santa Commander was so cool last year, I have pre-ordered this year's TFSource mystery exclusive. If it turns out to be a reindeer variant of Flame Thrower (Slag) that was my idea  ===KEN |

Judging from a recent report on Seibertron, it looks like it will be another Dinobot. Which one, I don't know but possibly the Rudolph Flamethrower idea I gave them last year |

www.tfsource.com/stocking-stuffer.htmlThey are now out. I'm a bit dissapointed. TFsource used my reindeer design I was bugging them all last year about but on the wrong Dinobot.  The best bit though is that I get a Swoop toy out of it, I am waiting for the pre-order of the original one to be released.

So they are using Grimlock again? Odd but they'll look nice no doubt.

Do I understand it right that you have to buy $75 of other stuff before you can order one of these sets?

That's what it looks like. Last year anyone who had spent over $50 got one free and could buy an extra one. I guess after they gave away a ton of them they realised, as nice a gesture as it was, it wasn't the most cost effective strategy.
In a few months they'll probably be available normally, just like Santa Commander.

It looks very nice indeed.
Now those chaps should get cracking on a Ratchet/Ironhide.

I didn't realise they'd done an Octane and Cyclonus as well. And a Wheelie!! Which actually looks very nice.

Haven't heard of these, are they for sale, or just kitbashes? That Cyclonus looks great.

I believe they're jolly expensive garage kite, though I could be wrong.

Yes I saw these at Botcon last year and they are very expensive. I think there were some unpainted kits a bit less, but I missed them. Wheelie is brilliant because its the right size for say classic. Cyclonus also brill is just to small.

Did you see what sorta silly money these cats were going for, Andy? They passed me by completely. I'm really keen on that Wheelie, they covered everything with him.

There's a set of him and Cyclonus on eBay doing the rounds for $999.00.

That's...incredible. And an interesting study in how a burning craving can be extinguished so violently.
No, I actually can't process that auction at all...

Nick I think it was just under 100 but I cant remember if that was pounds or dollars. Other Nick may a better memory. Since then I've seen them on Yahoo Japan a few times going for about 70 pounds I think. Also the price depended on whether its was fully assembled and painted or not. The ebay prices are a little crazy for these things, I now wish I had stretched to picking up some of them. The fully painted ones were on display next to my Thundercracker in the custom contest and Im really wondering why I didnt get them now.
