I got one from A3U, but shits been a bit fucky there

Like I know Vancouver got cut off from the rest of the country by flooding but I'd been waiting for a paid shipment to go out for more than a month before that (finally sent them an email last night about it)

I stopped ordering from A3U after that happened to me. Their service is polite when you can connect with them, and you'd think living on the west coast would make things easier with regard to shipping, but my last order took ages. I'm sticking with BBTS, they take longer to get their orders fulfilled and their shipping isn't the greatest, but I feel as though I've had the most success with them.

Edit: I understand that the flooding has impacted shipping for reasons beyond anyone's control lol

ravage not being a casette really makes their dynamic even weirder.

like its weird to live inside another guys chest, but if you turn into a cassette and your boy is a tape deck then at least theres a kind of logic to it.

now its like some 'stepsister stuck in the dryer' poo poo

Is it weirder to have your pet or a politician live inside your chest?

Soundwave did both.

I don't really see an issue with Ravage turning into a cube, because what is a cassette but a flat cube with two holes in it? For all we know that cube is a common model of Cybertronian modular mainframe or whatever.

It would be nice if they could get him into a neater cube though, it's a lot harder to suspend disbelief when there's crumpled-up legs sticking out the sides.

This Toyworld Freeway is on eBay for reasonably cheap, but it’s coming from China. It’s probably a KO, right? Should I steer clear?

I always liked Soundwave's little buddies being like his pets. Except Rumble and Frenzy I guess, they're just dumb little guys. I did like Ratbat's characterization as a Decepticon bean counter though.

If you search Amazon for "War For Cybertron" and filter to Cyber Monday deals there's a bunch of Transformers on sale. I grabbed Kingdom Rodimus for $57, one of the few movies characters I still wanted

If anyone wanted a Kingdoms Ark the guy in on sale at amazon.ca for 134.46 plus tax.

He should ship to other countries if no where else has him on sale.

I had this one when I was a kid. I've actually been trying to find them on the internet again. I have the IDW digital versions, but they're English. I used to have them in Dutch. Wanted to find them to let my kid have a good laugh at their expense. :)

Still love RAtbat as a villian though. It's fun that they had an insane power house (Megatron), a powerhouse scientist (Scorponok), a bean counter and an even insaner and more powerful decepticon leader.
Also, I guess Straxus?

Speaking of the Marvel comics, does anywhere online have the whole uk run for sale on digital? Related question, did the UK run include all the US comics?

The Last Call
Sep 9, 2011

Rehabilitating sinner
Pretty sure the Uk had various collections over the years. Most people only care about Time Wars with the time travelling stuff usually. Maybe some wrecker stories.

The UK run had it's own stories that they slotted in between Marvel stories. It's kinda a trip to see how they balance that, and by that I mean Furman. He was creative, especially as he had to make the UK stuff work according to what was going on in the US marvel run.

Hachette partworks did the whole lot up to the Constructicons Galaxies run a while back. Quality was very iffy though, and they very quickly dropped their "in publication order" promise.

Wow. Just got Kindom Galvatron and he might be my fav get this year. Not only is his robot mode awesome, but his transformation is excellent, and the alt mode is so well executed it actually makes me like Galvatron's dumb alt mode. Top marks all around.
