First up I definitely want to thank the amazing artists that made the boxes and packets to add to the appeal for so many wonderful figures.

I have been keeping all the packages for the last few years in cardboard cartons up in the ceiling cavity but today I needed (for myself) to actually clean them out, I had thought I will keep a bunch of them but as I got stuck in to separating the cardboard and plastic I found I really only wanted to keep a couple.

My cousin had said to me many years ago “if you don’t use/wear/appreciate something for 12 months do you really want it?”

Obviously this doesn’t apply to the MIB collectors but for the rest of you do you keep your boxes? Do you keep the cardboard display stands? Do you need a pep talk to discard them?

Anyone know how (if possible) to get the casting button back?

I do have Google Chrome things on my TVs and it’s all worked fine to get the casting ready before playing videos until the last upset now I have to play a video before I can get the option to cast.

Annoying downgrade, maybe I am stupid for paying for YouTube premium rather than updating my TV?

So I just bought Bone Shaker and I absolutely adore him.

I initially only bought Twin Mill and then stumbled on the Pull-Back racers and was very interested in the collab and pull-back being basically the same dimensions, not so for Bone Shaker (though close.)

Upcoming El Segundo & GT Scorcher collabs look brilliant, I found the Hot Wheels XL El Segundo (not a pull-back) and have ordered the GT Scorcher pull-back.

These have a TF animated vibe to my mind, they are going to live on shelf with my Legacy Animated figures but if Bone Shaker ever gets a brown deco like the pull-back I will out that one with my Junkions.

Sorry my photography is terrible and I need a course in posing figures but otherwise I am incredibly blown away with what Super7 and Ramen Toy have done.

Just have to put the perspex fronts on (wish me luck.)

I have been spending a few nights a week at my mums place since my father passed away, I have brought a couple Bumblebee’s as a home away from home thing and I found them this morning looking in at one of her miniature houses, very wholesome.

My mum calls them “bee-men” and apparently they were looking in on the lady beetles.

Second attempt at this post 😂

I have had this lovely Brawn for quite a while and he has always been so floppy he was problematic to stand up, finally moved him after I redid my cupboard and found he was leaning on another figure so I tightened up his balljoints and he now holds beautifully.

As an added bonus if you do this you have a good story to tell people of you ever miss a phone call from them as you can say “sorry I couldn’t grab your call I was busy putting nail polish on Brawn’s balls” er don’t do this with your boss.

Thank you for the help with the other phone good people!

Hi all, the locksmith popped this open but I still don’t have a clue how this should be removed from the wall.

There is one screw down the bottom but no way that’s the only thing holding it on.

Made from the leftover parts from Netflix Red Alert and G2 Toxi Sideswipe plus Mirages weapons.

I had a few ideas rattling around for this one but I finally decided on making him the “final form” for Autobot X.

After Trypticon trashed Autobot Mountain (or maybe the mountain beside it) out of the rubble crawled Autobot X.

Having possibly spent 20 years slowly evolving in a back room of Wheeljack’s laboratory this one is finally joining up with the Autobots in 2006.

Is it even the original Autobot X? Is it the remnants of Spike’s psyche forming its own life form? Is it a spontaneously generated new Spark in a Cybertronian body? Is it Jackie’s mind and Spark transferred by compressed land bridge at the moment of his demise?

Hi all, this lovely old phone is on the wall at my mothers place.

I need to move it, one visible screw at the bottom bit I take it there is a bigger bolt on the inside but I can’t open it as I don’t have a key…. Any ideas of how to open it or where to get a replacement key?

Australian phone I would guess.
