Bribery,huh? :lol:
Far over the Misty Mountains cold, To dungeons deep and caverns old. The pines were roaring on the height, The winds were moaning in the night, The fire was red, it flaming spread, The trees like torches blazed with light.

Yup, absolutely - isn't that how all good partnerships work? :twisted: :P I was inspired by CMs clothes idea, but Mrs S likes Care Bears and My Little Pony, so it's easy to sneek a toy past her if she gets some herself :roll:

I finally after lots of searching found the transformers electric racing set. And I had to pick up a couple of masterpieces on the way of course! Image

Nice catch Dinobot. Skywarp is easily the best MP seeker, expecially in his jet mode with the tiny white writing all over him... he's so detailed. I'm looking forward to seeing what colour scheme they pick for Thundercracker....

The MPs set me back at about $100 usd a piece. They were expensive, but they are sweet looking! It took me a few to transform skywarp, just because his instructions were in japanese. I hope that they do as good of a job on thundercracker as they did on skywarp. I am a little jealous of your sunstorm figure though Sunstorm. That seems weird to type.

I was very lucky with my MP Sunstorm, as he barely cost more than a normal MP. (I think I paid $140 USD, so about £70 GBP or so). He does look really cool, but I intend to add more yellow to him myself, as with him being all orange I think he needs more colour depth. He is awesome though 8) Thundercracker will just complete the collection perfectly.

EDIT - I went a bit silly and bought that Dark Horn last night. Although I'm really pleased I bought it at that price, I think Mrs S might kick my ass on this one. Bracing for impact! :shock: :x :lol:

He looks very 8) though. He'll look great in front of Uni and Scorponok...

Nice Voice Helmet there Vectorsigma! Does it have the real voice of Peter Cullen or is it the other one? I have both voice helmets. My son loves it! Also gotta love the Movie Megatron figure!!! Thanks for sharing!

Minerva - yeah, he's awesome. I've taken a photo in comparison to a G1 Soundwave, so you can see the size difference. Face on, he's pretty small and convenient looking to carry around, but then you notice his thickness :x :shock: It's pretty thick and not something you'd slide into your backpocket easily :roll:
Ah, okay. Thanks for the info! *still wants one* :)

* if you hang on, I may have one for sale soon.... :wink:

Des - I'm looking at a couple of more expensive Zoids again, as Mrs S has said she'll get me one for my birthday. Was hoping you could help me again with prices, as I'm still very much finding my feet on the prices of these.... I've seen a Mad Thunder which is just awesome, and a Holotech Gojulas which I like both, but obviously, can only get one. It's either that, or get a smaller one with a small TF instead. There's a Deathpion I really like the look of too... 8)

I've bought three already and I'm bidding on a Krark too. I've been totally bitten :shock: :twisted:

Well I have a Mad thunder. and he is awesome. He's joint third in my list of favourite zoids {at number 1 is the decato dragon, at number 2 is the chimera dragon. at joint number three are bio volcano, deathsaurer, mad thunder and krark}

I'm not too keen on the holotech zoids [clear plastic parts] as I've heard bad things about them. (parts fracturing etc). Plus you can get a good normal zoidzilla/gojulas complete for a lot less.

note that the death python. its one of the larger scale zoids produced in a very short run in japan. It comes with a larger pilot than a normal zoid.

chaper mad thunder
I got mine from this guy.

Thanks for the link! Can we see a pic of your Mad Thunder against the red horn? I just saw this fuzors one too which looks awesome. Questionable name though, fuhrer? Very WWII don't you think? Also, I saw one called (and I peed myself for some time when I found THIS one! WARDICK! (surely Galvs must have something to say on a name like that!? :lol: :lol:

Ah the berserk fuhrer. it was renamed berserk fury elsewhere. [Mine doesn't walk.] that one simply comes with a buster eagle.

The Wardiuck was released as Warshark by hasbro.

heres a pic of just how big Madthunder is compared to a dark horn. {hasbro version with added CP 03 beam gatling}

the death saurer is nearly as large...
