Yeah, that's Starscream from Transformers Armada. And the Ultra-esque guy is Servo from Super-Human Samurai Sybr-Squad - a Power-Ranger-like chop job using footage from Denko Chojin Gridman ("Lightning Superman Gridman"). Coincidentally, I hear Gridman is going to be issued as a new Chogokin figure soon.

Mojacko, and Ben: thanks for ID'ing these three bots.

Starscream tempts me to give it a touch up paintjob
complete with panel-lines to its details; but I don't wanna
mess him up, he looks too cool (and HUGE!) standing there
on my dresser.

"Servo"... I knew it looked familiar, from that tv series with
the kids goin at each other's throats via computer- one of them
becomes "Servo" and then that other kid is an evil nerd sending
out monsters into the cyber city.......
...Dang, SABAN comes up with some Crazy ideas! LOL!!! ;D

That third figure definitely reminds me of VR Troopers... I'll look
up Gridman at youtube.

Thanks! :D

I finally got my MonsterArts Mecha-Godzilla Effects parts today. Unfortunately, I don't have Mechagodzilla to show it off. Need to finish Hercules and RD Evas first.

Got these recently...

Evolution Yumi Sayaka - Late model and Limited Early Model editions. I thought they were gonna be sort of crappy, but they are pretty cool. You get two bodies, three faces, a helmet, a helmet with hair attached, gun, several hands, and some cast off clothing. Seriously, these are very, very cool... in a mischievious sort of way! ;D

Eh-hm, yeah, we get the point about that cool Sayaka figure.
Her twin peaks there look better than most dolls I've played with. ;D

Man, that crack bot looks badass! Right on, it certainly fits in good
as a kikaiju... Bro, go off on it and see how many custom kiks you
can make from it! :D

In another thread I mentioned that I ordered the Maketoys "Battle Tanker" and that the timing of the BBTS sale was good because just a week earlier, I had won an eBay auction for a corresponding "Reveal the Shield" Deluxe Optimus Prime.

Well, the Prime figure arrived a little while back (about a week ago). I have to admit I was a little bit surprised to find how tiny he was in robot mode. I mean, I have other deluxe class figures but for some reason it seemed wrong that Optimus Prime would ever be rendered so small. Hmm...

Anyway, I picked up the Battle Tanker kit from the post office today. I was surprised to see how big the package was (that's what she said!).

It's a little bit more fiddly than I'd like. The Fansproject designs are sharply sculpted and pieces come apart and fit together snugly. Whereas, this guy... well, I assembled him tonight and I'm just afraid of him snapping something if I turn a joint the wrong way as most of the major parts are hinged and connected to each other (unlike the Fansproject add-on kits that were mostly just body-armour and the built-up figure still relied on the original figure's joints).

April - I've been buying Masters of the Universe Classics all month.
I have almost all the figures that I want. There are very few left on my list to purchase. ;D

I bought Revoltech Anguirus from Comic Con. Unfortunately, I didn't see Robot Damashi Eva Unit 2 earlier and I couldn't exchange it.

I have got to freaking share this!! This is my most recent toy purchase! A Godaikin Golion for $100 bucks that is only missing a few things. And I've got the booklet to go with it. All I need are a few missiles, weapons, and a repaired black lion and it is complete!!! Such a great steal! This almost never happens any more on Ebay. Yes I am super thrilled! I also have a near-mint Matchbox Voltron that I will be switching the lions over to this, and exchanging the weapons so it will be near-minty fresh. Deal of the decade! http://www.ebay.com/itm/230775902589?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649
