I had a splitting headache from how bad the first one was, and I saw commercials for the second one on chocolate bars BEFORE this poster and trailer dropped. :/

Oh my god, Kirby Air Riders might be amazing

Look, I'm sure this figure might be good. Great even! But I'm probably going to wait until I get my hands on 86 Soundwave before I form an opinion.

Right now, I don't know how to feel about it other than I'm glad that I skipped the Legacy reissue.

If you have them, I will be answering some questions that don't go into spoiler territory.
Until then, stay tuned for more info!

(Sorry for the triple reposts, simple link embeds show up weird)

Delving deep on creative decisions that may seem insignificant at first, and cracking some jokes along the way :)

Come back tomorrow, I'd like to show you something...

PESTYSYDE @pestysyde.bsky.social · Aug 13

*was bought from

I am still very tired

PESTYSYDE @pestysyde.bsky.social · Aug 13

I made names for the custom bots at the front, from left to right there's Richard (Saint D***), Lean Green, Mean Green and David Maximillian the 76th (also known as Dave).

Lean Green & Mean Green were both won from the TMUK stall, while Richard bought was from Toy-Fu :)

After a good bit of relaxing from the trip back home and some deliberation, I had a really pleasant time at #TFNation2025! Sunday was the best day of the whole weekend, got to take home a total of 3 custom minibots for my birthday :)

This isn't everything, but here are some haul highlights! :D

Gonna take a bit more care of myself tomorrow, today was a really hectic day. The only meal I had was breakfast and that's it. Wish I had prepped for this a little better, but it do be what it do be... At least I got my shopping list pretty much done

Okay, I've got a room... but TBH the stop at Schiphol kinda sucked. Having to run a marathon because the gate kept changing is not the start that I wanted... but hey, at least I got some excercise.

For those who wanna know, I'll be here all weekend. Going home on Monday. Maybe I'll make a video, but that's not guaranteed...

I've got to admit, I'm a little nervous about going out of my home country and to a convention on my own. It's literally the first time I've ever done this alone, so of course it's going to seem a little scary! Think I'll be able to manage it though :)

UPDATE: All of the important preparations are done, now all that's left to do is to save a lot of money for Trader Hall stuff. #TFNation2025, here I come :D

I'll be making an attempt to attend #TFNation 2025 this august, this time on my own. Last year was such a blast, so much so that I wanna do it all again! This means that I've gotta slow down my usual purchases like last time... and hopefully put some savings on a new suitcase LOL

A little facelift.

PESTYSYDE @pestysyde.bsky.social · Jun 6

I hope that some other stores have the Fisitron and Carnivac pack available out there somewhere (already pre-ordered Top-Spin and Spinister), because I really like that blue dude and I don't know anything about him LOL

PESTYSYDE @pestysyde.bsky.social · Jun 6

The thing is, it wasn't like this before. The price of the imports was at some point understandable and I was able to stomach it, but this year changed. I don't know if it's a glitch or not but all I see here is xenophobia thinly veiled as highway robbery.

Haven't shopped there since.

the struggles of the international transformers collector...

#transformers #comic #mspaint #amazon #maccadam #wow #expensive

On the first panel, two pictures of the Transformers Age of The Primes: Wreck n' Doom collection and their respective figures are shown with a text doodled in green saying "In stock!"

The second panel follows with a long haired, smelly man (me) sitting by a computer with a keyboard, mouse and a smile on his face saying "oh sweet, the wreck n doom collection's released on amazon! might just order these ngl..."

The third panel is heartbreaking. One of the 2-packs containing these figures, specifically Fisitron and Carnivac are listed and shown to retail at fifty dollars. A tolerable price for the man, but the real kick in the dick is the Import Fee Deposit which is listed at over a thousand dollars just to have it shipped to Norway!

The fourth panel has the man lamenting in the pain of being priced out of exclusion, with his cheeky smile being wiped with a dull, dissappointed expression. All he says in this potentially painful moment for many others is "is this punishment for not being an american?" A faint text is also underneath saying "at least shipping's free..."

10 years ago, I picked up the first game I ever pre-ordered. Unfortunately, I lost my copy of the game a long time ago, but I've been loving the series ever since. Happy 10th anniversary, #Splatoon!

"Scars"

#illustration

A simple drawing of a human turns their back on a technicolor nightmare, as their past turmoils and memories try to break free from the bars made of chains hold them back.

still wondering if i should continue working on BlueBalls, since that godzilla collab transformer has some parts i want for him.

here's a picture two components you need to build your own BlueBalls. If You Want To

if you got questions regarding him or his character, i am willing to answer :)

Image of the two figures required to make BlueBalls. The one on the left is Age Of The Primes G2 Grimlock, while the figure next to him is Legacy G2 Grimlock.

worked on a little custom #transformers figure i had planned for a bit. His name is BlueBalls

BlueBalls in his robot mode, his main colors are blue and teal. He has a silver head with a teal visor. BlueBalls holds a twin-cannon blaster in his right arm.

Third party #Transformers confuse me. I've heard that a lot of them are very good but they're either
1. too expensive
2. too big or small for my tastes
3. overly engineered for transformation

I like the modern Generations stuff a lot and it'd be hard to find any that compare to it. Any suggestions?

PESTYSYDE @pestysyde.bsky.social · Jan 28

Dang, that sucks. Hope you can make it some time soon.
