Not a lot at the car boot this morning due to the weather but that doesn't mean I left empty handed. This small haul cost me just £2.

Found this Spitting Image book in a charity shop today and it features a parody of the 80s Transformers comics called Merchandisors. The Art is credited to Lee Sullivan.

Me on Christmas day when the cheese and crackers are brought out:
An old poster for process cheese featuring Bagheera from Disney's Jungle Book movie holding a knife in one paw and a cracker with cheese in the other. Cheese and a glass of milk  sit on the surface in front of him. The main caption reads "By George! Cheese and crackers - that's living!"

I drew a comic strip.
a comic strip. The first panel shows a goblin in a long coat approaching a guard. The second panel has the goblin saying "we're just normal men!". The third panel has the guard replying "what do you mean normal men?". The fourth panel shows both the goblin in the coat and the guard. The coat is beginning to open to show many goblins within. The guard looks suspicious and a goblin emerging from the coat is saying "We're just innocent men!"

Three panel comic using stock images of die-cast metal Transformers toys.  Panel 1: Bumblebee's head and shoulders, shot from a low, heroic angle.  "I'm on the way, Optimus!"  Panel 2: Optimus Prime, almost looking over his shoulder.  "Will you be long?" Panel 3: Bumblebee full body.  His torso is an entire roof of a Volkswagen Beetle with arms and legs hanging off, making him look significantly disproportionate.  A speech bubble simply reads "Yes"

Not a lot at the car boot this morning but I did find a vintage Rat King figure for three quid. Maybe there will be more tomorrow.

There’s a type of TV viewer who thinks of any episode that doesn’t forward a main plot as “filler” and do you want to enjoy some entertainment or do you just want to cross it off your checklist? Would you get the same experience from just reading a Wikipedia summary of the season?

So I’ve sifted through that whole “Dobby Grave Powerline” story going around and this is what I’ve pieced together: 1. The area was already a conservation site they could put the line anyway. 2. An internal joke about Potter fans got reported as true. 3. Potter fans are defacing protected land.

Big thanks to @spider-father.bsky.social for this dapper little dinobot. I do love a weird little beast era bot. The £4.99 sticker takes me right back to the shop in town that sold BW/BM figures for a similar price back in the early 2000s. I miss that shop.

Outback and Powerglide are both fun figures. I had a couple of issues with Powerglide's transformation at first but once you figure out how to do it without pulling bits off he's pretty neat. Outback is a repaint/remold of Brawn, which was already a strong figure and so that carries over here.

Here is my little TFNation 2026 haul. I didn't really have much of a list going in so it was very much just wandering around the dealer hall and picking up whatever took my fancy (also Powerglide and Rodimus were bought on the drive to TFN but they still count in my book).
