So last week, dropped by day 2 of the 4th Toys and Collectibles Christmas Fair with Mikko

and what was there?  Tons of cheap loose/boxed ML, DCUC, DCIH, Joes, TF, comicbooks and custom figs.  If ever you’re looking for cheap giveaways for your inaanaks this Christmas, I think this is the place to get ‘em.

Also, I finally got myself a TFA Voyager Optimus Prime!  AWESUM!

hauls!

(all the GI Joe stuff is Mikko’s)

I did see the Walmart Punisher that I like — but my money’s reserved for my mum’s gift.  :D

So, drop by the 4th Toys and Collectibles Christmas Fair — last chance tomorrow (later) the 22nd!  Woohoo!

(Incidentally, failed the original “bloodpod” mission after the Fair. LOL)

Here’s a couple more pictures of TFA Optimus:  (Not to mention that the wrist guard on the right arm snapped off.  Booo!  Prolly brittle plastic?)

prime axe.

prime grimlock.

coolest feature ever:

coolest feature ever = snapping mouthguard.  (coolest feature ever unless he makes the transform sound when … transformed)

alt mode.

prime vs. grimlock.

vs grimlock.  axe in both hands, woohoo!

prime in package. prime! prime. prime. faceplate on! prime. agent prime. prime grimlock. prime axe. booooo. alt mode. alt mode. robot mode. broken hinge :( prime. prime. prime vs grimlock. prime vs. grimlock.

Pros:

* He’s the leader of the Autobots

* Translation from 2D -> 3D = fantastic.

* Awesome faceplate/mouthguard feature.

* Axe/gun store in his back for “Jetpack Mode”

* Cool automorph feature that doesn’t hinder mobility.

Cons:

* The red parts on his chest/shoulder areas are made of gray plastic painted red.  Edges of mine chipped off.  Boooo.

* Wrist guard very, very fragile.  In the hands of a child this will break.

* No transforming sounds for Voyager class toys, boooooo

Still a fantastic toy though.  GET HIM IF YOU CAN FIND HIM.
