I'd love to see if this revenge force included Lugnut, don't cross Megatron!! And I'd love to see him cross over into the G1 universe.

Finally decided to click the button and now I got FP Warbot a.k.a. Springer. A fairly nice figure with complex transformation. Well, really not that complex but the instruction made it so. So besides the balance issue (which is actually kind of a big deal), this is a fun figure. I'm now building a ...

I might come back to the character in a while, but for now I think I might follow Alan Moore and see where he takes me. I've been thinking about picking up some of his Swamp Thing work and getting into that. The narrative felt as though it was far removed from the Marvel style, which can be very ted...

Alan Moore's Captain Britain

I came Alan Moore's run this week on Captain Britain. It was excellent, I loved the grand scale of it all with alternate worlds, unstoppable villains. It was awesome to see cameos from Miracleman, Archie the Robot, the Claw was in there too I think, even if it was only to see them die, oh well. Gett...

Going on the quality of the scans in my IDW Target:2006 TPB I'm a bit nervous about picking these up. Sure the additional material is nice and all and most importantly I'd like a tidy collected couple of volumes, but if the quality of the printed story isn't up to snuff I don't think I can justify b...

Lovely work, I really like how the stripe on the side worked out for you. Plus all the details you brought up are very striking. I'm really looking forward to getting my hands on this toy when it becomes available over here.

Poor old Vertex, I'm glad he got the shaft overall, he didn't seem to mind too much regardless hehe and he saved the universe, what a nice chap. I am sorely tempted to check out the heroes we meet in this story, same as I was with the Marvel Earth X heroes that come in the later sequels, but there's...

Apologies for the zombie thread, but I just read through this story tonight and it's a cracker. The art is great, though when we get into Phase III it does start to lose me owing to how busy the panels get, but the continuity is pretty tight. Elements introduced in the first Phase aren't forgotten f...

There's truth in that and I've seen my share, even have a VHS of the movie buried somewhere, well buried. I'll stick with the story here and go no further, picking up a couple robos will be no harm though, only one or two...

My problem with them is I have big fingers, so good big chunky keys are the way for me like on a touch tone phone. But all the new phones come with qwerty keypads as standard now, world must be full of elves and nimble pianists.

Aye, got lucky (I think) and nabbed 3 MOSC powersuits for $20 inc shipping, I remember I have unit 4 buried at home somewhere, though it's pretty wrecked, so I may try to get one in good condition. Also watching an auction for the central piece in box at a reasonable price too. I'm very pleased by t...

I got an incomplete one for a reasonable price a couple of years ago and I don't regret it. I'm not one to get hung up on accessories, so I was happy to get the makings of a coherent bot for less than the Ebay premium. His is a very nice bot to display and is good and solid. He is quite a brick, but...

It's a sickness, I just read those comics, now I'm bidding for the toys on ebay, love the look and size of the power suit, so going for Courageous. Then I'll have to hunt down the cast of the Eagle comic and see what fits what using your chart Cliffy.

I really enjoyed the issue and have the series so far, it is not as good as MTMTE, but such is life and I don't want it to take away from the title. Wheeljack was awesome throughout, nice to see that there is absolutely no infrastructure for the planet to try and piece it's civilisation back togethe...

Its been some time since I was last in London, but Forbidden Planet and the like are your best bet. There are also a couple of other specialist shops in the area that are well worth a look. IIRC its near Tottenham Court Road ...ish, best to check on the site for the address as it's been so long. The...
