Same. I'm not buying many Marvel Legends.

ALL of the upcoming AOTP stuff is repaints. And I'll be passing on almost all of it. G2 Wild Rider is a pick up, slowly get a full G2 Menasor. Machine Wars Starscream too, but only if he goes cheap.

000

Showing 75 for me, but that's ridiculous too.

That and Bay's dislike of AI are the only thing giving me hope for it not happening

000

I'm expecting more plot disguised as explosions and nothing making sense. More awful psycho Prime paired up with an awful AI recreation of Cullen. All jammed into fight scenes where you can't tell what one pile of metal pieces is which.

Morning all, it's time for a new #deskbot. This week, I grabbed Studio Series 86 Cliffjumper. A great little guy!

Warsmith Stu @oldstu.bsky.social · 05/10/2026

I finished the first 5 Intercessors for my D.A successors, The Dreadwing. Apart from the Sargeant's head, of course. I'm getting some hooded helmets for my characters and some Sargeants.

I went to trim my beard and managed to take out a chunk I didn't want to. So I had to take it all down. I'm so fucked off right now.

000

Warsmith Stu @oldstu.bsky.social · 04/10/2026

I grabbed the Obsidian Black, Base, Shade, and Light for Vallejo's True Metallic Metal line today. I think it looks pretty good, I want to try one of the red or green sets down the line.

Warsmith Stu @oldstu.bsky.social · 03/10/2026

I found these two while we were out.

011

Warsmith Stu @oldstu.bsky.social · 03/10/2026

I made a decent start on the first 5 Dreadwing (my home brew Dark Angel successors) Marines today.

Sometimes, nothing beats going to the coffee shop down the road and grabbing a nice coffee and a muffin top.

Warsmith Stu @oldstu.bsky.social · 01/10/2026

Did he come with all of the battle Master guys too?

100

Warsmith Stu @oldstu.bsky.social · 01/10/2026

Yes!!! I never picked up the Selects version of Bugbite, so this one will be perfect for my TF Gobot collection. news.tfw2005.com/2026/10/01/w...

Warsmith Stu @oldstu.bsky.social · 30/09/2026

I caught Scrimm building his Space Marines.

000

Warsmith Stu @oldstu.bsky.social · 30/09/2026

Awesome! Now I need to find one, and his two mates

Warsmith Stu @oldstu.bsky.social · 30/09/2026

I started a test mini for a new Space Marine army. It's the first time I've designed my own Chapter for an army, and I'm looking forward to expanding on the background I've already put together.

000

I just watched it, that's a good episode for sure

000

These guys are going to look amazing when they're finished.

This week's #deskbot is Studio Series 86 Megatron!

030

AEW has posted that Pac has died. Fuck.

Warsmith Stu @oldstu.bsky.social · 27/09/2026

I didn't feel like doing any painting today, so I did some more scratch building on one of my Trukks. I still need to work out how I'm going to do the weapons though.

000

Warsmith Stu @oldstu.bsky.social · 27/09/2026

Instant heat magnet, every time he appears, it puts a smile on my face. Plus this.

Warsmith Stu @oldstu.bsky.social · 26/09/2026

One Nob on Smasha Squig all painted up.

000

Warsmith Stu @oldstu.bsky.social · 24/09/2026

My Star Trek TOS watch continues, I'm on to MIRROR, MIRROR!!

Warsmith Stu @oldstu.bsky.social · 24/09/2026

Day 77, I finished the Smasha Squig!

000

Warsmith Stu @oldstu.bsky.social · 23/09/2026

That's what I'm doing. I really like that Conehead mold (I've got all but 1 version of it right now), keeps it cheaper too.

Warsmith Stu @oldstu.bsky.social · 23/09/2026

I've been doing a little bit of hobby work each day for 76 days. Today, I did some more on my Smasha Squig.

Warsmith Stu @oldstu.bsky.social · 22/09/2026

It's been all downhill since Bungie sold it.

000

Warsmith Stu @oldstu.bsky.social · 22/09/2026

Part of the fun is, despite never seeing it, I know a bunch of this stuff already. It's been fun recognizing certain episodes or stuff that ties into newer stuff that I do know.

000

Warsmith Stu @oldstu.bsky.social · 22/09/2026

I've been chipping away at Star Trek TOS, and so much of this series is really good stuff, I've just started on season 2, and we're already off to a good start.

This week's #deskbot rounds out the Decepticon Headmasters, it's Mindwipe!

020

Love me some Minibots! Yeah dude, fun was had yesterday!

000

Kranix. He's great, such an awesome little weirdo of a figure! Yeah, the Alt mode is certainly a thing, but he looks great as a robot. My only gripe is that I wish his gun could be stored somewhere, he's always got to carry it.

000

Origins Bumblebee. Very kibble heavy robot mode, alt mode is something different though. I don't hate it, but I'm glad I only paid 13 bucks for him. I'm interested in grabbing the Wheeljack, and Jazz to go with him. At the right price.

100

Tailgate and Cliffjumper. Remolds of figures I already like, so nothing to exciting here. That SS86 Bee mold is a fun little guy, and I'm excited to get Bug Bite in that mold (if that listing is true).

100

I've been messing with the stuff from yesterday's toy hunt. Here's some quick thoughts. CW Bull Megatron - he's just fun, even if he is really basic. He's currently piloting Pirate Ship Scourge.

You hit the right area enough, it plays the audio of Travolta saying, "So you think that god.." before the entire machine vibrates heavily with a gunshot. Then... I dunno, multiball? OHH! Special red and bone balls to represent Marvin's eploded head!

121

Or a "I think I just shot Marvin in the face" bonus?

Is there an injecting Mia Wallace in the heart with adrenaline mini game?

221

Warsmith Stu @oldstu.bsky.social · 16/09/2026

Fun day doing a little toy hunting with @wilw86.bsky.social and watching the 86 Transformers movie on the big screen. Not a bad haul, and only one of them was at regular retail price!

121

I'm okay with admitting I'm disappointed in that answer.

000

Warsmith Stu @oldstu.bsky.social · 16/09/2026

Is JJ a stand-up vacuum or a robot one?

100

Warsmith Stu @oldstu.bsky.social · 16/09/2026

And here's what it looks like currently. It still needs some work, the cab mostly, but I've got to work out how I'm going to do the guns too.
