Anything else new in?

[dalisprime]

They just restocked the voyagers as far as I saw. Gonna see if Grapple gets the shelf nice and warm so i can get him on sale

No luck finding Lugnut or Grapple today, but I did pick up Power Core Steamhammer and Grimstone from forbidden planet. Multilingual packaging too, so they should be out elsewhere for a decent price, but I've been looking forward to these guys so I paid the bit extra. It's amazing the improvements in these guys since the first wave, the constructicons are some of the best engineered drones in the line, whilst the dinobots are easily the largest ones, a couple of them are bigger than Grimstone himself.

Edinburgh Crew Toll Sainsbury had 3 Strafe, 1 Grappel and 1 Lugnut by the time I left.

*** EDIT ***

Grappel marks my first ever major QC fail on a Transformer.

One of the bits on his shoulder which allows the side panels of the truck to lift and swivel was glued into place. I had to remove the pin, then get the black bit out, and then sand it down slightly to get the glue residue off it.

Working fine now however.

Got my Generations Soudwave, Kup and Scourge for Toyz and Gamez today. I'm not going to post my thoughts about them here; from now on you can see my blog to find out what I think of new figures.

Well, okay, I'll breifly comment here, Soundwave continues the War for Cybertron tradition of decent vehicle mode with slightly inferior robot mode, Scourge has an awesome alt-mode and is probably the best of the three, Kup is a little limited but is great for 'mad old man with a shotgun' poses.

Okay:
RTS Lugnut and Grappel (Argos)
Generations Blurr (eBay)
Fizzy Sweets Bodyblock (eBay)
RTS Deepdive (eBay)
PCC Skyhammer and Heavytread (TFSource)

Various RTS and Generations - all from the awesome Kapow Toys:
Deepdive - amazing repaint of an amazing toy.
Wheeljack - blows tracks out of the water. The spanner/tools are awesome!
Thundercracker - Best paint job on this mold but it is showing it's age. Time for a brand new seeker toy design methinks.
