Of course depending on the country of origin, a lot of those releases had different names.

Looks like you cleaned much of Japan out!!<br /><br />I wish there were concentrated hobby and toy retailers where I live like they have in Japan and Bangkok. Oh well maybe my toy shop can be your collection room!! :P<br /><br />I'm going to get in touch with you regarding one of those pieces very soon.<br /><br />All the best, glad you are Logikhttp://www.tfw2005.com/boards/members/logik-104118.htmlnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2683625406708498876.post-33736301933634587242013-12-31T14:36:28.576+08:002013-12-31T14:36:28.576+08:00hey dude, an advanced happy new year to you!

Japan is a place that every TF should be visiting, at least once in his/her life (just like BotCon, which every TF should also go to at least once, haha).<br /><br />Yes, I am aware there are toy shops like that in Phils too. Don't know where though. Never been there.

From me experience in Australia, I under...hi Joe! <br /><br />From me experience in Australia, I understand that its difficult to find vintage figures from a particular shop and just pick them up. The place is just too big, and in places where there are a concentration of shops, its often not viable for someone to open up a physical toy shop to sell toys, because the collectors in that area (as opposed to the relatively very large Heroic Decepticonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18017245701029351849noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2683625406708498876.post-30238306406287445502013-12-30T08:33:05.453+08:002013-12-30T08:33:05.453+08:00Congrats on getting a Hardspark soon, Colbey.

The colour scheme is really very nice when you hold him in your hand.<br /><br />Were the Turbomasters and Predator jets released in Europe in VS packaging? I am aware of the Operation Combination release in VS packaging, but not the Euro one (if it exists).<br /><br />From what it appears, I think Japan did get the Euro exclusives back in the early Heroic Decepticonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18017245701029351849noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2683625406708498876.post-53836902111873785312013-12-30T08:30:45.332+08:002013-12-30T08:30:45.332+08:00hi, thanks for dropping by.

They contain approx 28 pages of full coloured Japanese exclusive Transformers artwork and also often contain unobstructed G1 box art images. They come in heavy stock, high gloss paper as well.<br /><br />I'm not sure how to search for them online, but I think these search terms might turn out something:<br />- "Heroic Decepticonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18017245701029351849noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2683625406708498876.post-89633701922729893622013-12-29T05:31:58.509+08:002013-12-29T05:31:58.509+08:00Nice little haul you managed to grab there HD.

I can tell you that most of the figures you bought would be hard to find here in Toronto, other than maybe having to go to a Convention to get them….even then I doubt the prices would be close to what you paid for them. Most of the stores here are poor at best in my opinion. <br /><br />Joeacdecepticonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17244806619131442080noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2683625406708498876.post-37544631744761038712013-12-28T12:11:54.945+08:002013-12-28T12:11:54.945+08:00Nice.

I've got a friend hooking me up with a MIB sample in a few weeks.<br /><br />As for Thunderclash, I know the Predator jets and Turbomaster cars were released in VS packaging at the end of the G1 line.
