A local store called city cyber anime stocks Binaltech TFs - went in today. They're between £40 and £45 in there :shock:

I didn't buy any :lol:

They had a good selection though - Battle Ravage, Shockblast, Red Meister, Swindle, Windcharger, Tracks - probably a couple others too. If anyone does want one and wants to pay their prices(!), I'd happily pick one up at cost for anyone...

I wanted Battle Ravage and Shockblast (SB looked especially cool in his metal outer - very shiny oooooo :D ) but I didn't want to pay £80-£90 for the privilege. Metal or not, they're expensive Alternators....

I got TF monopoly for my birthday - it's awesome. The pewter figures are seriously 8) and the board is fun too - pics;

Nice artwork on the box;

The board, with a closer look at the expensive properties (Mayfair = Cybertron, Park Lane = Earth... etc);

The figures, Starscream, Soundwave, Megatron, Optimus, Jazz and Bumblebee;

All in all, it's a great little set.... well worth the cash.

Hey ramjet - if you want one of these Shockblasts, the store I got it from had another and I could get one and send it to you at cost? I don't have the funds til end of month, but the shop will definitely hold it for me.

They also had Swindle, Silverstreak, Grimlock, and Dead-End that I can remember.... all £15 each

Thanks, but by the time it shipped, it would cost about $45 usd and just don't have that kind of scratch right now.Image If I lived in the UK I would swoop on it!

No worries Ramjet - if you ever change your mind though, just let me know.

As for anyone else - if you're looking for a Shockblast Alternator and in the UK - it'll be £15 for the TF plus postage. :wink: He seems to be a very desirable TF in that range and £15 is a steal.....

Also - anyone looking for that Ravage/Jaguar XK, you can get them from Argos for £19.99 8)
