JETFIRE!!!!!

Finely! Jetfire is here!

I can't play with him yet, Mum's grabbed him to wrap up, but I did give him a quick check over so he's just fine.


I didn't find a Softimus Prime - I think I found the pricing ticket where they're supposed to be in K-Mart but none there, not even the cardboard tray they'd be in. On the other hand I found a couple of small movieverse figures - Jazz and Ratchet. They were $6 each (less for me with employee discount - K-Mart is owned by Coles) and yes, they transform - I don't see much point in a Transformers toy that can't transform (unless it's Roller). They'll barely reach Jetfire's knee - if that.

I also found a DVD I have been searching for, for nigh on 6 months - Flying High, or as American might know it, Airplane!. Classic spoof movie, it is, absolute classic.

ETA - ETA On Wings!: You know the fun thing about Flying High!? Robert Stack. What's so fun about Robert Stack? He did the voice of Ultra Magnus in the '86 Transformers movie. ~_^

Now he's having a quiet nap under a very big tree (at least, very big compared to him).

Now you need a Starscream so they can go exploring it...

*sigh* Yes, I'm totally giving myself ideas for photos.

Pity I can't afford a Starscream, and probably won't until after the new year too. I'm a bit behind the eight ball financially because of the Centrelink loan I pulled for the computer so saving up for Screamer will be slower.

But I'm sure there'll be things for them to explore when I am able to get Starscream - maybe I'll send them on a mission to explore the basil plantation!

If I can get everything else done, maybe I can take some of them with our bright red sparkle tree. Muwahaha! *snerk* Or not.

I'm still debating digging out the ancient tree I have in the spare room and decorating it with minicons and legends (like those movieverse guys you picked up) and robot heroes.

I am getting very strong "great minds think alike" vibes right now. I was just thinking of the image of a christmas tree decorated with mini transformers!

Well, at one point, since the little guys have all moved into the dollhouse that had to be moved to put up the red tree, I was going to decorate that~~ But a tree of minicons sounds so much better. I think. Just need to undecorate it from being anime!tree. Angel!Goku's still tied to the top.
