TheDK posted:I feel like they've been making GBS threads out the same Movie Optimus for years now. Granted, I don't own any of them so I wouldn't be able to tell you what makes them different from each other. The leader toys for the first and second movies were significantly different, and the 4th movie had an entirely new design with very different toys. The Last Knight is also the first time a voyager version of this Optimus is made.

Really having a hard time figuring out if I want to pre-order this MP Megatron with orange barrel or try to obtain some other way (a con or something?). I imagine it's going to be hard to come by but I'm worried about them ripping open the packaging and loving with the figure. Am I overreacting? Anyone else already pre-order from BBTS? e: Also $230 is fuckin steep. TheDK fucked around with this message at 18:04 on Nov 10, 2016 |

And I just found a new alliance - we'll see how this works. I just need to get Superion going.

If it's in the U.S., it's going to have the orange plug. When I bought MP5 Megatron from BBTS, they treated the figure with care. They know that collectors are going to be very tough on any damages or imperfections. The glue holding the plug in place was a smaller-than-pea-sized amount of standard hot glue. It took very little effort to remove it.

$230 for that Megatron is jokes, unless he comes with the stock and barrel accessories and also a $50 bill in the box.

There are two sellers on FB doing it for $200 shipped right now. Anyways, the RID toon is garbage the the toy line continues to be fantastic. Bludgeon!  Blurr!  Soundwave!  Twinferno. Yay.  Skywarp!

Whoa these all came from nowhere (well we did see a proto Bludgeon at the last fair). I'd love a set of all three seekers in that mold. Bludgeon is rad as always and the megatronus mold is awesome. Also, there's a black Grimlock repaint named "Stealthasaurus Rex" This one actually seems great design wise, it hides the truck bits magically. Those paint apps though, urgh.

Rhyno posted:BRO. Yeah if you like your Megatron to be a scrawny bitch with a lumpy torso he's the bees knees I just pre-ordered a reissue MP-10 because I can't be bothered to go find my anniversary Prime and MPP10 needs a buddy. I guess also the rest of my normally scaled MP guys would also benefit from a decent and correctly scaled OP. Wife gonna flip her poo poo because you already have a really big one of that guy whats the point in a smaller one and why the gently caress did it cost 3x as much are you mentally ill VVVVV- Yeah and with a decently sized fusion cannon compared to the wimpy babby-gun on all the other Megatrons. Megatroni? I buy the ones that look the most like the character my inner 8 year old still pictures them to look like, which for Megatron is apparently a combo of G1 cartoon and IDW's bruiser gladiator design.

Tell us what kinds of stuff you're into! Once Santas are assigned, we're all going to be trying to figure each other out, so some healthy conversation will help things go smoothly. 3) DEADLINE: The deadline for sign-ups is FRIDAY NOVEMBER 18TH! #SAVETHEDAY Assignments will go out shortly thereafter. 4) BUDGET: Somewhere in the $25-$30 (£15-20) range (before shipping).

Gag gifts are cool, but please include some kind of actual gift. 5) COLLEGE STUDENTS: Remember that these gifts will likely go out around the holiday break, so be mindful of which address you give me. If you have any concerns about packages being stolen from your doorstep, use the address of your work/friend/parents, just so long as it's cool with them. 6) INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING: If you sign up for this, you are agreeing to the possibility of getting an international address. The USPS international price calculator can be found here. 7) SHIPPING DEADLINES: Royal Mail last posting days: http://www.royalmail.com/greetings USPS Holiday deadlines: https://www.usps.com/holiday/ 8) WHEN YOUR GIFT ARRIVES: Show us your loot! Take pictures! You can wait until Christmas morning if you want, but still, show us all the awesome goodies your Santa brought you. 9) LATE PACKAGES: If you haven't received your gift by January 1st, let me know so I can look into it. If you haven't SENT your gift by December 15th, let me know so I can contact your recipient. 10) DON'T BE A DEADBEAT: If you sign up, please get your person something. Nobody likes a deadbeat santa. 11) FINALLY: A Merry Christmas to all of you at home!
