*Click on the link below my Sig.*
The shelf pics in the G1 and RID sections are quite old now, I'll be updating those very soon.
I'll also be starting to build a new Minicon wall display cabinet in the next few weeks, I'll take pics during construction and once it's finished.

Well I've finally gotten around to starting on my Minicon Cabinet.
Picked up all the hardware required last week and tonight I varnished all of the wood and assembled the main frame.
I've still got to attach the back board, then the wall mounting brackets and then to hang the door, but if all goes to plan, I should have it finished before Monday.
I'll post pics when I'm done (I may even get around to updating my collection pics next week too).

G1 Masterpiece OP Trailer Just got this today and thought I'd take a few photos.   I chose to get some of the extras that are available for the trailer such as the glossy sticker sheet, the chunky tires and a set of long smokestacks for 20th Prime. The darker colours such as the blacks and blues stand out much better on the glossy sicker sheet. The chunky tires have exactly the shame tread and width as those on the trailer, but are just a little larger. There's also the option of a grey roller, but I'm happy with the blue.  The rocket launchers and rollers launcher all work great and are really powerfull. The quality of the plastic is really good throughout.    I'm really glad I bought this over the official MP Convoy with trailer, I just think it looks so much better. And considering it only cost me £60 (including all the extras and shipping) it's was well worth it. |

This Is a huge day for me, my Transformer grail arrived. G1 ShockwaveIt's practically C!0 the hose is flawless the battery cover is excellent and the electronics work great. There's a small cut on the box, but other wise it's probably a C8.5 It's awesome.     |

Thanks.
Shockwave has always been my favourite G1 TF, I just love the way he looks.
This is actually my second Shockwave. I got screwed by an ebay seller on the first one. they sent it in a padded envelope and by the time it arrived the sides under his arms were all split.
This was back before I had Paypal and I paid with a UK postal order.
They wouldn't give me a refund and there wasn't a lot I could do about it.

well looks like you made up for it and got over on this one...tis one of the best shockers I have seen..
To put things in even more perspective I paid $80 USD for mine..the electronics work but he wont stand up un the metal portions inside is lower legs..it slides back down.. works out though because I think it looks better shorter..plus it fits in the display nicer.

Gave my collection website a much needed update yesterday. I also changed and added some navigation buttons. Since I last posted in here the Minicon cabinet I mentioned is finished, but it's filled with other TF's at the moment. I'll take pictures very soon. I'm having a big shift around at the moment and building something else to accommodate my collection. Link |

OK a big update to this today. The new cabinet I mentioned a few posts back has almost been completed I just have to make some folding doors for the bottom. This cabinet was my most ambitious yet and it wasn't cheap to make.  Here are some pictures of it and my brand new LCD TV, which arrived yesterday ;D   You can see the bottom of the last cabinet I built on the left (you may remember that I posted pictures of that at the time)   I'm well chuffed with how it's turned out, although it's already swallowed up most of my collection already. |
