Hey guys, just a random thought, not sure if this has been discussed before:

If we started approaching sellers and making pre-orders as a group (e.g. as the "LYN Transfans" or whatever)...

Do you think we could find a seller who'd be willing to give us a group buy discount? For instance if there's at least 10 of us per order?

A 10% discount or maybe more realistically 5% is still significant... especially with the more expensive third party figures and combiners.

Win-win situation right? We get cheaper TFs. While they get a big bulk order.

I guess the feasibility of this mainly hinges on the willingness of the sellers. Which in turn hinges on their profit margins and stock allocations (e.g. they would never agree if demand consistently exceeds supply).

Another issue is whether it's worth our logistical headache of finding enough buyers each time.

Like I said, just a thought. Anyone got an opinion on it?

Actually, I've got a Whatsapp group with some friends here. We sometimes share info on where to get stuff, where cheapest, etc.

If interested I can add people in. smile.gif

Anyway, new haul today! I'm very very impressed with DX9's plastic quality!

Hey guys. I just got heavy noisy. I noticed the screw covers on mine are not there... did it come pre installed in yours or they are packed in a different section of the box and you have to manually apply it ala tfc nemean ?
*
I don't remember mine having this problem. Yours might be a lemon piece where they forgot to put the covers on.

Cybertronians,

Are you guys excited about the combiner wars?

to be honest, i am

as much as third party transformers are awesome, i will still support the original stuff if i find that they're nice. smile.gif

Not sure if Hasbro is selling in sets, but it seems quite clear that yes all the limbs will be transformable.

As for ugly or not, umm yeah it's subjective, but personally I'd rather pay 5x more for Fansproject Intimidator compared to having this anywhere on my shelf...

actually the only thing that i find not appealing are the fists/legs. if a third party can give us better ones, i think this is not bad actually lol

Wow, where can still get this Maketoys Seaspray n Powerglide?

Hard to find unfortunately, unless you're really lucky. My personal opinion though, this set is probably not worth your money. Kinda loose joints, and the transformation is rather simplistic.

QUOTE(nicholas1007 @ Nov 12 2014, 04:49 PM)
I wan to ask bout MMC Mastermind Ferel Rex. Do we really need total of 6 set onli can transform to the king? I heard ppl saying tat the last one Felisaber is the extra for the set to combine. So meaning i can transform the Predaking without Felisaber rite?
*
Yes you can do without Felisaber.

when i was searching for g1 headmaster, surprisingly megazarak got few but like mindwipe or apeface these smaller ones no result at all...how come ah? is megazarak they produced alot more than these smaller ones last time? rclxub.gif

megazarak or scorponok?

Be careful of KOs for scorponok.

Also, if you mention vintage G1 toys, you forgot to add one very important element. What's your budget?

Some of mine. Small collection only sad.gif

g1 scorponok i think...but alot KOs scorponok since 2013 release...kinda scared too especially the head lord zarak.

well price if the lower the better haha...around 100-200 ba my budget...

wa bro...100-200 i dont think you can find la lol

a complete loose headmaster is around 300-400 in the market now. rarer ones like the junior headmasters even more pricey.

QUOTE(omichael @ Nov 18 2014, 02:05 PM)
FPJ Chromedome can still get - if you're willing to pay upwards of RM500 on ebay sad.gif

I also really want it to complete my collection, but can't justify paying that price. Especially because it's widely known as the weakest of the Function X figures.

Hoping for a reissue but there don't seem to be any signs of that.
*
hmm, i dont think chromedome is the weakest of the lot. to me the weakest at the moment is X-2 because it's a little fiddly in robot mode.

best of the lot, X-3 without a doubt.

How is the transformers toy scene nowaday? I'm losing in touch with it. I plan to start back my collection. But it seems a lot of Encore already got sapu'ed.

Also the Horse edition MP 10 Prime still available. Is it a good buy?

ppl i know who buy the YOTH optimus are either

a) completists

b) customisers
