Ooh, even better!

Uploading pictures to BlueSky is a fucking tedious nightmare. It takes forever, repeatedly fails and you have to keep the app or webpage open and in focus or it will definitely fail.

I fucking hate it.

The first beastformer, Onyx Prime is an intimidating bot in any of his 4 modes (bot, centaur, 6 legged horsedragon, better horsedragon), and quite fun to just mess around with, as evidenced by all the pics I've taken of him.

Another itty bitty hotty botty. Micronus definitely lives up to his name. He's adorable, and I love him. His bot is fun to transform back and forth from the disc mode. The Apex Armor on the other hand is less fun but bike mode is clever, though it doesn't leave much room for the wheel

When I buy new Transformers they immediately go on one of my three shelves, and will eventually be cycled out to replaced by other newer bots.

Horri-bull here didn't even make it that far. I greatly dislike this toy & wouldn't have bought him if he didn't come with 3 toys I actually cared about

The bumblejumper himself! This is Bumper's first ever OFFICIAL toy release (long story), and while it's a straight redeco of SS86 Bumblebee I think it works. He's as nicely articulated as SS86BMB, nothing fancy just solid. With a fun transformation sequence (even if I do keep forgetting a step).

The evil twin to Animated Optimus, this is the ONLY Animated character I own (and I don't think he even appears in the show). Not much to say about this guy, his transformation is awkward and slightly annoying, but he looks great in either mode so it's a worthwhile process.

Itty Bitty Hotty Botty. He's so tiny I love him. A breeze to transform, given its basically the G1 engineering, but it still looks fantastic. He's really fun to flick back and forth as just a fiddle toy.

Let's review the last 7 Transformers I got, cos why the hell not?

Other than owning an original G1 Seaspray, I don't have much of an attachment to this character, I just wanted a new Seaspray. This delivers, he's exceptionally poseable, and the transformation is complex without being complicated

Gotta wonder about the long term viability of this site if they regularly can't keep the servers running properly.

This tiny little guy might be my favourite Prime so far.

I mean they're all great, but I just love little guys

He's a venal, fragile baby, desperate to buoy his ego any he can, none of this should be surprising with that in mind

Both spellings seem common in Australia, I've seen it spelled either way in various places

“From downplaying the impact of the Holocaust with comments about Mengele through to claims that Muslims started slavery, Candace Owens has the capacity to incite discord in almost every direction. Australia’s national interest is best served when Candace Owens is somewhere else.”

No we speak Australian English, it has similarities to British English but it's not the same
