Now to listen to the best podcast about Snake Eyes from two guys in Victoria.

Dare to be Stupid - Reformatted
So, what do people think of this?
It's on The Transformers: The Movie: The Soundtrack: The Reformatted Edition if you haven't heard it. That is a lot of "the" there.
I mean, it exists and not butchered as much as other songs but not sung by our weird one so obviously sounds off.

Outstanding orders
Hi fellow collectors,
I don't know if this has been asked but is there any confirmation or news that Neca will be fulfilling orders that have products that are labelled as Out of Stock on their store?
My case is that I have half of my order is still classified as such and when I have inquired they have said they will escalate to distribution but should be shipping soon.
I'd like to think they would still produce stock for at least their outstanding orders but also feel they will could just keep delaying or ignore orders until either refunds are requested or forgotten about because the customer has just given up on waiting.
I've already been waiting for nearly 6 months after a mishap with the original order as this one is a replacement and starting to swing to the ask for a refund option.

All about the Pentiums
Whilst listening to Weird Al at work (I have control of the "radio" in some parts) the song in the title came on and when the line "I've got me a 100gb of RAM" played I thought, "wow aren't we lucky".
I mean I have 48gb installed on mine but given the rise in RAM prices this is still impressive and aged well, whilst the Pentium part is now outdated.

There wouldn't be too many of these around.
A Jack Doohan car, considering how many races he had.
I saw several Alpine cars in a collectables store and thought "there's a fair few" and it wasn't until I checked closer that I noticed who the driver was. There were Gasly and Colapinto too but I had to get this one because i'm Australian and also because of the rarity.
I am also on the search for a Lawson Red Bull and I quite like this one, 1:18 scale from a group called Solido.

Excuse the shoddy photo editing, not one my strengths...
... but now the wait for Swindle to complete the team.

Wasn't intending to go into this store...
Trying to be an adult and do a proper adult shop (food and a new air fryer), stopped by a JB-Hifi (Australian home entertainment retailer) in the local shopping center to find these and couldn't refuse.
Had actually been in one of their other stores a few days earlier and on the occasion if near one but came out empty handed for the past half dozen times, made up for it this time.
When I got back, my partner jokingly said "all you had to do was pick up the shopping, not add to it", she is so patient and supportive with my hobby.

One of these is not like the others...
So a little story to this purchase:
Originally only intending to get the 2012 Neca turtles through a local store online but I left the pre-order too late and could only get Don and Mike.
Pre-ordered Leo and Raph through Neca Australia (did I mention i'm an Australian, now I have, moving on) to complete my order...
...or so I thought.
Got told that they couldn't provide me with Leo and asked if I wanted a refund or alternative. Tried to get '87 Shredder but was sold out, even though the site said it was available. Opted for the Gangster pack as it was the same price as the Leo.
Meanwhile...
...the original store I ordered Don and Mike informed me that couldn't fulfill the order and offered a refund. So went on Big Bad Toy Store to try my luck on the US market again.
Haven't had a good run recently with US orders and wasn't going to try the US Neca store again. Link for that story, tl;dr, they're on reorder after it was "delivered" but not there when I arrived. Was also not notified by Neca or the courier on it's arrival.
After finding out that Leo had to be re-ordered I opted to go to BBTS, that was where Soundwave came into this as I didn't want to Leo to be lonely on his trip.
So, Don and Mike arrived last Thursday, Raph and Gangster on Monday and Leo and Soundwave yesterday.
Now, the wait for my other Neca order to be sent.

Australian order from US store
Couldn't really figure out a "creative" title name but basically asking if any Australians have purchased from the US store and how long it took for the arrival of the order.
Placed an order in late March on the TMNT flash sale and just wanted to know if there is a window of time for an estimated delivery baed on experience(s).
Also, how were the postage costs because i'm quite turned off from buying directly from them in the future if the postage will make up about 60% of the total purchase.

Lunch time order
Whilst browsing the EB Games site during my lunch break, noticed my local had it in stock so instant order and collected it after work.
When I opened it, found it funny that Terrorsaur was staring over at Tarantulas who is the only one on his side.
I already had Inferno and Megatron but more than happy to double up on them. Now the wait for the Maximal release.

Now for the wait
After seeing him become available on here a few days ago, had to order one.
Paid for and October can't come quick enough.
