There you again TKW - flaunting your money about some sort of fancy Dan big shot. I bet it was one of them Jumbo ones from Greggs too wasn't it? Show off!
(Good going on the AM too Eddie! Now, the real question is, where does it stop? And will you be collecting Transformers before the weekend is out???)

no room for sausage rolls i've already eaten all the pies!!
i've not got much in the way of room anymore i seem to of amassed a lot of toys that aren't action force. still i can't wait i've not had an action man since i was about 8 years old and the action force really took over...brilliant.

i don't know where this will go to be honest, i'd like to get maybe half a dozen but no more, but never say never. as for transformers i already possess a few

Did the same thing myself this week and bought an Action Soldier with Australian Jungle Fighter outfit; there is also a Footballer and another vanilla Action Soldier on the way. I will certainly be picking a few more up but some of them already seem to be going for more than what I am willing to pay at the moment : (

Are folks meaning 40 th Anniversary ones are going for higher prices? They've still got loads in Modelzone near me, so I could always toddle along and see what they have if stuff is proving hard to get.
Last time I was in I was this close ( ) to buying a spacesuited one (that's very close) until my missus pointed he looked like "he's wrapped in tin foil" so I put him back. Wish I'd got him now though, so may well pop back.
