Nike Label Free 7.0 Convoy

This item was never in my top list. Even though i kept considering to buy it but the market price always stop me. This item could cost USD70 apiece! For deluxe class figure to spend that huge sum will make me think more than trice. Nevertheless, i admit sometime i do dream to own it one day ;-p

Hence, the day has come for me to decide whether to click or not (eBay). The offer is USD50 + USD30 for Express shipping, MISB package. Hmmm....USD80 means RM270+. Last month when i`m doing some window shopping i saw Nike Label 7.0 Blue Convoy (Magnus) at Sunway Pyramid selling for RM290 unfortunately, loose condition. Therefore, for MISB i think quite a good price. Without any hesitation i clicked the 'Buy It Now' button.

Tadaaa.....! today after a 7 days of waiting i received my package! Yup, the box quite in bad shape but who cares? As long as the figure itself in mint and great condition. Here goes some photo:

Optimus Prime!!

So, other Optimus Prime collector out there, what are you guys waiting for? Go get it!!! ;-)

Few items added......

Hi guys, first of all i like to wish Happy New Year 2010! I hope this year will brig more prosper and happiness to all TF fans. I assume some of you already make a long wanted list of upcoming toys this year. Keep on hunting guys! alot more to come. More than meet the eyes ;-)

I can feel that i am slowing down with Transformers. I no longer follow the update news nor new TF toys. Already sold off few items (extra set) and lately i am thinking alot to let go one of my set of collection. Of course, obviously Optimus Prime collection will be the last choice in my mind. Probably either the Seekers or movie (TFTM07/ROTF) set.

However, there is new members in the family. Just a small addition:

1. G1 Action Master Optimus Prime (finally)
2. ROTF Buster Prime
3. ROTF Sideswipe
4. TFTM07 Blackout (after a long search)

I should have bought FansProject Cuty Commander V2.0 but unfortunately, i was having financial problem from Sept-Nov 09 thus i had no choice but to snub the offer. I`m kinda like the new features. The additional weapon set as well as face plate set. I still hope i can buy it in future. Keep the dream alive like some said.

Till then, have a pleasant day!

Transformers Robot in Disguise (RID)/ Car Robots

Wow...its been a while now since my last post on Megatron family. I just about to receive another two Megatron. One is from Beast Machines (Mini Dragon Megatron) and the other one is G1 Action Master series. Hopefully i will receive them in good condition by end of Oct 09.

Last month i spent my night watching Robot in Disguise (RID) series (in Japan it is known as Car Robots). Thanks to one of my best friend, ateromen (Effendy) for the DVD. The RID series is one of the shortest series with only 32 episodes. Unlike G1, this series full of silly act by the Predacons. The story is about war between the Autobots lead by Optimus Prime (Fire Convoy) and Predacons, lead by the beast Megatron (Gigatron). In the middle of the series, the Decepticons joined Predacons. In Autobots team, beside Optimus there is RID Brothers (Prowl, Sideburn & X-Brawn), the Rail Racer (Midnight Express, Rapid Run & Rail Spike), the Spychangers, the Landfill (Wedge, Grimlock, High Tower & Heavy Load) and of course Ultra Magnus. While for Predacons there is only Slapper, Gas Skunk, Dark Scream and Sky Byte beside Megatron.

Talking about the origin of the Decepticons, they actually an Autobot`s member whom crash-landed on earth before the series get started. They are 6 of them, in primate form hibernating inside a sleeping capsule. When Autobots discovered their long lost brothers location and ready to meet them, the Predacons managed to intercept and take control of Autobots primates. As usual, the primate need a disguise body and for that, Megatron choose to scan a military vehicle since these type of vehicles are come with powerful weapon and cannon.

During the scanning process, Megatron blast his spark together with the primate spark in order to ensure their obedience to him. Hence, the mighty Ruination born. Scourge was the last and he scan a gas truck. To know how he gets Optimus face and mold, you guys need to watch the episode. Hehehe....

I must admit, RID got very cool transformers. That is why i end up buying it...almost complete now. Dusss.....i`m broke again. Huhu

At the moment i managed to the Predacons. Now i`m waiting for my Takara Ruination (Baldigus) to complete the puzzle. As for Autobots, currently i only have Optimus Prime, Magnus, Landfill and JRX Rail Racer. I`m still waiting my RID Brothers and spychangers.

I will upload more pictures once i get back to my parents house. Till then, have a nice day guys ;-)

Decepticon Leader: Hail Megatron!

This month was marked by one unfortunate event which i didnt expect could happen. The RID UM that i bought from UK was broken during shipping (Thats what seller claimed). How unlucky but that is the risk buyer like us have to take when bought item from oversea. Nevertheless, this event taught me to be more careful when dealing with oversea seller.

So, for this post i would like to share my entire set of Megatrons (which i am not a big fan of it actually but since Megatron is Prime partner along the TF series, i end up buying it)

2) G2 Megatron (Megastorm)
3) Armada Megatron
4) Energon/Superlink Megatron
5) Galaxy Force Master Megatron

7) Beast Wars Megatron (alligator)
8) Beast Wars Megatron (T-rex)
9) BW Transmetal Megatron
10) Beast Machine Megabolt Megatron
11) Beast Wars II Megastorm (green tank)
12) Alternity Megatron

14) TFTM Megatron

Still, few more to collect to achieve my target. I am short of Beast Machine Megatron & G2 GoBots Megatron. Hopefully by end of year 2009, i can complete it.

G2 Go-Bots Optimus Prime Transparent

Guess what? finally i own a G2 GoBots Optimus Prime! This is not the typical and original G2 GoBots OP but a repaint from G2 Firecracker mold. i find it more awesome in transparent looks thats why i stop searching for the original GoBots OP. The final result not bad at all, just a few minor mess on the head since it is hard to reach the small area using paint-marker. So here i present, my version of G2 GoBots Optimus Prime ;-)

In alternate mode: Lamborghini Sportscar

In robot mode: a tiny Optimus Prime!

ROTF LC Optimus Prime Repaint (Hi-Res Images)

Its been a while now since my last post. I`ve been busy with some commitment at Ipoh, JB and KL last month. Nevertheless, still able to grab some gems during my trip. I`ll post it here in future post.

Back to the topic, as promised these are few Hi-Res image on my previous project. This is image on ROTF LC Optimus Prime repaint (Truck Mode). Even though Takara-tomy is just about to launch their Premium ROTF OP by end of this year 2009 but i started this project since July. At that time, no news on Premium Series. So, i guess this is vader83`s Premium version.
