Canadian pharmacy Accutane

Shrapnel - Robot mode (custom) Zithromax usa

Back in December 2009, I was fortunate enough to canadian pharmacy Accutane procure an Iwata 0.2mm airbrush, lots of supplies, a medium sized air compressor, and canadian pharmacy Accutane pretty much every Createx acrylic paint currently available (thanks Jessica). The point of getting the canadian pharmacy Accutane airbrush was because I had been talking about making my own custom Transformers. I had canadian pharmacy Accutane made the one at Botcon, picked up a canadian pharmacy Accutane couple of duplicate figures intended as customs, and I eventually wanted to canadian pharmacy Accutane make an orange Aveo Transformer to match my real car. So I now have canadian pharmacy Accutane an airbrush in my possession and toys to customize.

I originally played with the canadian pharmacy Accutane airbrush shortly after getting the set, but ended up just being frustrated. Using some random small Venom action figure from canadian pharmacy Accutane Goodwill, I tried repainting it red to redeco him as Carnage. The paint didn’t flow smoothly, it canadian pharmacy Accutane globbed up, the paint flaked when touched, and the pinpoint detail the canadian pharmacy Accutane 0.2mm was supposed to have just wasn’t there. It was not a great first impression.

Discouraged, I put it away for several months.

Then last month, I felt like trying it again. I hadn’t been canadian pharmacy Accutane creative in a while and it felt like a good time to canadian pharmacy Accutane give it another whack.

So at the canadian pharmacy Accutane same time I received the airbrush, I had received some extra Revenge of the canadian pharmacy Accutane Fallen Transformers meant for customizing tests. Using three of those figures, I had canadian pharmacy Accutane it in my mind to re-purpose them as movie-themed InsecticonsShrapnel, Kickback, and Bombshell buy Doxycycline on line amex. All deluxe class vehicles with similar color schemes.

I started by digibashing the canadian pharmacy Accutane figures. Using some macro photographs I took of the toys, I loaded up Photoshop and canadian pharmacy Accutane recolored the original plastics. Using photos of the original G1 toys, photos of the canadian pharmacy Accutane Robot Heroes, cartoon screenshots, and other images I tried to match characteristic details of each character in their redeco. I didn’t spend a canadian pharmacy Accutane whole lot of time getting the details exactly perfect; as I just wanted a canadian pharmacy Accutane base from which to work on with the actual paint. I tried to canadian pharmacy Accutane use colors that matched paints I already had so I wouldn’t have canadian pharmacy Accutane to mix unique colors. I thought this digibashing process would take quite a canadian pharmacy Accutane while, but I cranked all three rough redecos out in about 2 hours.

The next step was choosing which one to canadian pharmacy Accutane start with, and then taking it apart. Jolt, the basis for canadian pharmacy Accutane Shrapnel, seemed like a good starting point with a larger number of screws versus pins. Pins can canadian pharmacy Accutane be a pain to remove and put back, so I saved the canadian pharmacy Accutane other two figures for later. Piece by piece I disassembled Jolt into as many parts as I could, all along keeping track of each screw and canadian pharmacy Accutane where they went by taping them to sticky notes. Screw lengths and canadian pharmacy Accutane widths are not uniform across the figure as I found out at Botcon. I had canadian pharmacy Accutane to make sure each screw went back where in came. Each part was then canadian pharmacy Accutane separated into separate bowls that were grouped by color.

I decided to canadian pharmacy Accutane start with the pearlescent yellow that was for the windows to canadian pharmacy Accutane mimic the yellow/gold plastic on the original. I knew I wouldn’t be canadian pharmacy Accutane able to keep the translucency of the blue windows, but I figured the canadian pharmacy Accutane paint would look good against the other colors. The initial bits of yellow would also not need to canadian pharmacy Accutane be masked off making it a good starting point. I also tried my hand at the canadian pharmacy Accutane pearlescent silver bits with his pincers on his back.

Unfortunately as I came to canadian pharmacy Accutane find out, the non-opaque paints I have do not cover well nor spread well. I had canadian pharmacy Accutane not figured out the correct mixture of paint to illustration base at this canadian pharmacy Accutane point and so I slathered each piece just trying to get it canadian pharmacy Accutane to coat. The paint was thick and much of it was wasted. I did not start with an canadian pharmacy Accutane opaque base and so most of the paint just didn’t stick. I also had not sanded each piece prior.

I also was finding that canadian pharmacy Accutane the airbrush was clogging a lot. Constant cleaning and disassembling of the canadian pharmacy Accutane airbrush were common occurrences. In addition, I was quickly running out of the canadian pharmacy Accutane small bottle of the airbrush cleaner I had. Halfway through the canadian pharmacy Accutane painting process while trying to clean the brush, I ended up stripping the canadian pharmacy Accutane threads off the 0.2mm nozzle. That put a delay in the canadian pharmacy Accutane customizing, after which Jessica headed to Phoenix and nicely picked up both a canadian pharmacy Accutane replacement 0.2mm nozzle and a 0.3mm nozzle (which works via some slight jerry-rigging). That was an additional $80 I had not planned on…

I fumbled through the canadian pharmacy Accutane rest of the colors over the span of 2 weeks, finding better paint mix ratios and canadian pharmacy Accutane seeing that the opaque colors like white, black, and dark colors don’t need much spraying before seeing results. I tested my hand at masking, unfortunately finding that canadian pharmacy Accutane some pieces need to be perfect and ended up with some bleeding such as black streaks in the canadian pharmacy Accutane yellow. Also, the Createx paints don’t cure unless they are canadian pharmacy Accutane heated with a air dryer or heat gun. Even after that canadian pharmacy Accutane they still show fingerprints and smudges. Next time I will try actually using the canadian pharmacy Accutane clear coats intended for finished pieces.

So I had canadian pharmacy Accutane all the pieces mostly painted, they had been heat cured, and canadian pharmacy Accutane I felt anxious to get the figure together. Seeing it canadian pharmacy Accutane all in parts strewn across the table kept irking me.

Starting with his arms, I quickly found out that canadian pharmacy Accutane because I had painted so thick and/or the paint wasn’t fully cured, parts which rubbed or canadian pharmacy Accutane twisted against others rubbed the paint off in spots. Ball and canadian pharmacy Accutane swivel joints rubbed down to their base plastics which was a canadian pharmacy Accutane bright electric blue. Furthermore I found that if pegs had been canadian pharmacy Accutane painted, the pieces wouldn’t fit together cleanly or canadian pharmacy Accutane smoothly. I ended up breaking the base peg on his left knee trying to canadian pharmacy Accutane dry fit the part. At least the screw and other parts that canadian pharmacy Accutane followed still keep him together. On later pieces I ended up scraping away unnecessary paint on these pegs with a canadian pharmacy Accutane exacto knife so the pieces fit better.

Shrapnel - Car mode (custom)Once fully together, I started to canadian pharmacy Accutane paint the small details. Red eyes, detail highlights, headlights, bumper trim, and canadian pharmacy Accutane the like.

Transforming Shrapnel, or canadian pharmacy Accutane even moving some joints, is not as smooth as I would have canadian pharmacy Accutane hoped. His parts are very tight due to the paint, and canadian pharmacy Accutane he is quite hard to actually get transformed between modes. In addition, the canadian pharmacy Accutane colors that I had don’t quite match up to canadian pharmacy Accutane what I had planned. The yellow is not quite orange enough, the canadian pharmacy Accutane purple is a bit dark, and the silver is just a canadian pharmacy Accutane bit too white (even though I can’t quite get the chromed look with just paint).

But I can now honestly say I’m glad to canadian pharmacy Accutane have this first self-designed custom Transformer completed. He does look quite nice on my desk even with his imperfections.

Shrapnel and Jolt - Robot modes

The question now is when I’ll get to canadian pharmacy Accutane the other two Insections I had digibashed. I must admit I’m a bit burned out at the moment as the process wasn’t what canadian pharmacy Accutane I consider fun. Also, do I make changes to the canadian pharmacy Accutane coloring to match what I wished the scheme was or canadian pharmacy Accutane keep the other two the same to match how Shrapnel turned out?

I guess we’ll see if and when I get to Kickback and Bombshell.

Canadian pharmacy Accutane

Back to the BotCon 09 posts…

After picking up my boxed set, the canadian pharmacy Accutane next event I had scheduled was the all day Thursday customizing class. I didn’t quite know what canadian pharmacy Accutane to expect with the class, but I knew that they only had canadian pharmacy Accutane 2 classes the entire ‘con with 50 seats each. I had canadian pharmacy Accutane heard that they filled up immediately, and so if you had canadian pharmacy Accutane any inkling of taking one of the classes you needed to canadian pharmacy Accutane jump at the opportunity.

The class sounded like a canadian pharmacy Accutane good idea, and so I tried to reserve my seat when canadian pharmacy Accutane I faxed in my registration. As it happened, I was quick enough and canadian pharmacy Accutane luckily I got in under the cutoff for the Thursday class.

Customizing class setup Amoxil shipped by cash on delivery Part tray and tools Customizing class part sheet

The class was held at the canadian pharmacy Accutane Colorado room of the Hilton Pasadena. The room was somewhat small and canadian pharmacy Accutane had several long tables pushed together, which had been draped in plastic. In front of each seat was a canadian pharmacy Accutane foam tray with a couple of tools inside. There was also a canadian pharmacy Accutane parts guide and a small booklet with information about the class and canadian pharmacy Accutane the character we would be building.

As it turned out, the toy we were going to construct was Shattered Glass Thunder Clash buy Finasteride no visa online without rx. Thunder Clash where can i buy doxycyclinewas one of the canadian pharmacy Accutane exclusive boxed set toys from this year based on the Energon Rodimus mold. Shattered Glass buy Amoxil mastercard is canadian pharmacy Accutane the universe created by the Transformers Collectors Club that is essentially the canadian pharmacy Accutane mirror universe of the Transformers with Evil Autobots and Good Decepticons. Several of the canadian pharmacy Accutane Rodimus toys and completed SG Thunder Clash toys were also sitting on the table for reference.

I was kind of disappointed when canadian pharmacy Accutane I saw Thunder Clash sitting on the tables, as I was not a canadian pharmacy Accutane fan on this toy from the pre-release photographs. I also wasn’t a canadian pharmacy Accutane fan of the character, and wished it might have been canadian pharmacy Accutane any of the other members of the exclusive toys. However, we were going to canadian pharmacy Accutane be making SG Thunder Clashes and so therefore so would I.

Customizing class partsShortly after everyone had canadian pharmacy Accutane arrived for the 9am start; the host for the class, Shawn Tessman, introduced himself and discussed what we’d be doing. He and other volunteers then handed out bags (containing even more bags) with all the canadian pharmacy Accutane toy parts still on their plastic sheets. We had to then canadian pharmacy Accutane take each sheet and cut/twist off each part and canadian pharmacy Accutane sort them into quadrants on the foam tray. We would also need to canadian pharmacy Accutane trim any flashing still left on each part so they could fit together snugly when canadian pharmacy Accutane completed.

There was one slight hiccup that they caught during Wednesday’s class and canadian pharmacy Accutane it seemed some bags had 4 of a part, which other bags had canadian pharmacy Accutane 4 of another part. So once we got the parts untwisted, we simply traded 2 of that canadian pharmacy Accutane part with our neighbor for 2 of their part.

The parts themselves were the canadian pharmacy Accutane exact same unpainted mold as Wings of Honor Thunderclash, and canadian pharmacy Accutane it was quite interesting just how plain or “naked” this canadian pharmacy Accutane toy looked. Paint applications really are a key part of each figure.

Customizing class parts Valtrex cheap no rx required canadaThe next step was the canadian pharmacy Accutane daunting task of separating out all the screws, pins, and springs. They recommended that canadian pharmacy Accutane you lay down strips of masking tape to group each set of pins together. Differences between the canadian pharmacy Accutane lengths/widths of each pin were very hard to canadian pharmacy Accutane determine and the photocopied guide sheet wasn’t perfect (nor could you expect it to be). This by far took the longest and even then I didn’t match them up perfectly as I came to find out.

So with all the canadian pharmacy Accutane prep work done, it was time to start building. Each quadrant of the canadian pharmacy Accutane tray was a different body part such as a left leg, right arm, torso, etc. In the canadian pharmacy Accutane instruction booklet, each body part had an exploded view showing each individual part, what canadian pharmacy Accutane order to put them together, and what pin or screw you’d need.

In some places where there was just a pin, or a larger screw, we’d need to canadian pharmacy Accutane bore out the pin hole with a mini-borer. Sometimes the parts would be canadian pharmacy Accutane too tight if we didn’t clear out the canadian pharmacy Accutane holes, and so we needed to make sure parts could rotate correctly and canadian pharmacy Accutane not have stress fractures.

Customizing class diagram and partsSlowly my first part, the canadian pharmacy Accutane left arm, came together. It took a little thinking to get started as you canadian pharmacy Accutane had to make sure you wouldn’t screw up. Lots of parts were pressure fitted once combined and canadian pharmacy Accutane so you had to make sure it was right. In addition, some parts needed to canadian pharmacy Accutane be pressed together with a hand-held leather punch (like pins) or hammered with a setting pin at Shawn’s desk.

I kept plugging away at parts and canadian pharmacy Accutane eventually hit on my first snag. I started to screw together one of the canadian pharmacy Accutane hands, but had placed the wrong fist on that hand. In my attempt to canadian pharmacy Accutane fix this I stripped my first screw, and realized that you canadian pharmacy Accutane really did have to put this together correctly the first time. Regardless, arms, hands, and canadian pharmacy Accutane legs were coming together.

The process began picking up speed as I got comfortable with how these toys are canadian pharmacy Accutane built. The construction did start becoming a bit more complicated, especially in areas like the canadian pharmacy Accutane torso where the Powerlinx feature was.

Arm and hand Torso and left leg Lower body

There were a canadian pharmacy Accutane few more missteps along the way: forgotten parts, screws that were too big, over tightening parts, taking things apart to canadian pharmacy Accutane make sure they were right, etc. An example of one of those errors is canadian pharmacy Accutane in one of the pictures above (the one with two legs). You can see a small dimple at the top of his left leg that isn’t on his right leg. That dimple was created by using a canadian pharmacy Accutane screw that was too long and screwing it too far. Doing so made the canadian pharmacy Accutane screw tip poke through and almost push through his left hip. I wasn’t alone with having errors like this, so I don’t feel too bad.

The class had canadian pharmacy Accutane started at 9am and finally by a little after 1pm I had canadian pharmacy Accutane completed the base figure. I hadn’t taken a break for lunch (knowing that my time was limited) and it still took 4 hours to build this guy. I really didn’t think it canadian pharmacy Accutane would take that long, and I had expected to spend most of my time painting and canadian pharmacy Accutane tweaking the figure when I had initially signed up for the class.

However now that I was done building, it was time to paint.

The only set of personal tools I had canadian pharmacy Accutane brought were my own paintbrushes, and I’m glad I did. We were only provided with one to use (along with some toothpicks) and canadian pharmacy Accutane I wanted to have a few more options. We had canadian pharmacy Accutane access to lots of enamel paints, some metallic but most were flats. An airbrush area was also available, which I ended up using later.

I didn’t have canadian pharmacy Accutane any idea what to go with as far as a color scheme. It was suggested to canadian pharmacy Accutane just enhance his normal non-painted colors since the Wings of Honor Thunder Clash had canadian pharmacy Accutane lots of paint apps, and so by leaving him mostly cream/white would make him look evil. I instead decided to canadian pharmacy Accutane go with navy blues and burgundy red colors, with hits of purple.

Painting the canadian pharmacy Accutane figure was a lot harder than I had anticipated. The enamels were pretty thick and canadian pharmacy Accutane weren’t the easiest to get detail work with (at least in the short time remaining). We could use toothpicks to drop bits of paint into spaces (like the face) and canadian pharmacy Accutane it would fill in the crevices. I did my best with what canadian pharmacy Accutane I thought would work. I was happy with my results for canadian pharmacy Accutane the most part, but I had wished I had not used a canadian pharmacy Accutane metallic purple paint. This particular paint was very watery and so did not cover well and canadian pharmacy Accutane also dripped. The clean lines I had envisioned ended up being leaky and canadian pharmacy Accutane streaked. Oh well.

I had canadian pharmacy Accutane used the airbrush station as well. Like most of the others, we painted his traditionally clear blue weapon a canadian pharmacy Accutane flat black. With Shawn’s help I was able to canadian pharmacy Accutane get full coverage easily and I was happy how his gun looked in the end.

By a canadian pharmacy Accutane little after 3pm I had finished painting my personal customized Shattered Glass Thunder Clash. The volunteers had canadian pharmacy Accutane to go set up for that evening’s club store, and canadian pharmacy Accutane so the class was drawing to a close. I packed up my stuff, thanked the canadian pharmacy Accutane crew, and headed back to the room.

I would later do some additional adjustments once I got back home; like fixing his left hand, tightening screws, and canadian pharmacy Accutane adding additional stickers. However, it still had taken me a whole day to canadian pharmacy Accutane complete a single Transformer.

Canadian pharmacy Accutane

Revenge of the Fallen Poster: BumblebeeI’m taking a canadian pharmacy Accutane break from the month-long delayed BotCon posts to comment on Transformers: Revenge of the canadian pharmacy Accutane Fallen.

I initially had canadian pharmacy Accutane planned on seeing the flick, tonight Tuesday June 23 at 12:01am at San Tan Village. I had canadian pharmacy Accutane pre-purchased 2 tickets for myself and Jessica. I had planned on taking Wednesday off to canadian pharmacy Accutane recoup from the long night in line and in the canadian pharmacy Accutane theater.

My timetable jumped up a canadian pharmacy Accutane little over a day when Jessica was able to procure 2 passes to canadian pharmacy Accutane the pre-screening event being held at Tempe Marketplace’s Cine Capri, at 7pm on June 22. A co-worker of hers got the canadian pharmacy Accutane pair of tickets from a relative, who in turn won them from canadian pharmacy Accutane a contest. Knowing that I was a fan, and not wanting to canadian pharmacy Accutane use them himself; I got to see the film early.

Jessica actually got the canadian pharmacy Accutane tickets around noon on Monday, and quickly rushed over to canadian pharmacy Accutane the theater to get in line. These tickets weren’t guaranteed seats, and canadian pharmacy Accutane so we needed to save our place in line. About 30 minutes later I arrived.

By the time I got there, the line that was formed inside was 90% full with about 75 people. Some folks had canadian pharmacy Accutane been there since 6am, just waiting in line. Lots of folks had canadian pharmacy Accutane folding chairs, which spurred myself to go pick up some similar chairs from canadian pharmacy Accutane Target for $10 a piece. There were other lines for radio content winners (maybe 100 people total), but there was also a canadian pharmacy Accutane line outside that was also growing and ended up wrapping around the canadian pharmacy Accutane building. They provided water to these folks, but it was still damn hot out there and canadian pharmacy Accutane they weren’t guaranteed seats (and eventually most wouldn’t even make it in).

So Jessica and canadian pharmacy Accutane I sat there, listening to iPods and talking to folks for canadian pharmacy Accutane about ~6 hours. We had canadian pharmacy Accutane waited in tons of lines at BotCon and so this canadian pharmacy Accutane was yet another bout of waiting. I was really tired of these lines, but it canadian pharmacy Accutane was a special event and we were going to see it canadian pharmacy Accutane before the Hollywood premiere which was a nice bonus.

Once we slugged through the canadian pharmacy Accutane long wait, we were left to get the only seats we had canadian pharmacy Accutane access to: 3 rows from the front and to the far right. They were not optimum seats by any means, and canadian pharmacy Accutane in addition the entire upper middle section was roped off for canadian pharmacy Accutane press and vip’s. Regardless we had seats.

After a quick bit of routines from ASU cheerleaders, radio contests, and canadian pharmacy Accutane then a short intro from Todd McFarlane, we got to finally see the canadian pharmacy Accutane movie I had waited so many months to see.

Transformers: Revenge of the canadian pharmacy Accutane Fallen is an interesting movie. Not great by any means, and canadian pharmacy Accutane in my opinion not as good as the first one. The shots of the canadian pharmacy Accutane robots do seem to be better framed, but there is still lots of blur and canadian pharmacy Accutane lots of debris flying everywhere. In addition there is still lots of camera shake and canadian pharmacy Accutane obscuring foreground objects.

The new Transformers they introduce are canadian pharmacy Accutane not used very well, and many are disposed of very very quickly. In addition, lots of characters seem to canadian pharmacy Accutane have multiple copies just to serve as cannon fodder. A good example is canadian pharmacy Accutane the use of the Constructicons. Great to finally see movie versions, but they are canadian pharmacy Accutane almost disposable characters like clones.

The plot is canadian pharmacy Accutane somewhat hard to follow and honestly not all that interesting. It is canadian pharmacy Accutane passable, but it could have been more. It almost seems like this canadian pharmacy Accutane movie suffered from a bad edit as you can tell bits and canadian pharmacy Accutane pieces that had been cut (and been in trailers) might have canadian pharmacy Accutane helped flesh it out further. It was still over 2 hours so it canadian pharmacy Accutane didn’t really need to be much longer.

DevastatorThe biggest disappointment for canadian pharmacy Accutane me was Devastator. I was really looking forward to seeing the canadian pharmacy Accutane big guy and what they would do with him, but like most others have canadian pharmacy Accutane since stated, he is wasted. From the trailers, and even the canadian pharmacy Accutane clip at BotCon, it seemed like he’d be canadian pharmacy Accutane better utilized. It is epic when he is combining together, but then canadian pharmacy Accutane he gets owned pretty easily for such a massive character. Also the canadian pharmacy Accutane humor at his expense on the pyramid is quite crude and canadian pharmacy Accutane pointless.

In fact, most of the canadian pharmacy Accutane humor is way way cruder than the first. Lots of the canadian pharmacy Accutane jokes and occasional swear words really don’t fit. Drug jokes, sex jokes, etc. I know its PG-13, but the stuff they thought would be funny was just plain dumb.

In the end, I’m glad I saw it. Not quite what I had hoped (I even tried to keep my presumptions low), and canadian pharmacy Accutane maybe it kinda fell flat because of how it was presented. The film was out of focus and canadian pharmacy Accutane our placement in the theater really made the whole experience a canadian pharmacy Accutane semi-dud. Not much too complain about though when they are free and early.

On the other hand, I’m quite happy with the canadian pharmacy Accutane toys they have released so far for the movie. In addition, I’m hoping when I see it again in IMAX the visual experience will be better.

As it stands though, I really can’t recommend the film to the casual moviegoer. Or at a minimum, I’d recommend keeping your canadian pharmacy Accutane expectations low. I like summer popcorn movies, and I’m not picky about movies having to canadian pharmacy Accutane be perfect, but the pieces just didn’t come together on this one the way they should have.

The toys on the other hand are quite awesome where can i buy herbal Proscar.

Canadian pharmacy Accutane

So after finishing dinner at Pinks, we headed back to canadian pharmacy Accutane the hotel and then over to the convention center. On that canadian pharmacy Accutane Wednesday evening, we had the privilege of getting in line for canadian pharmacy Accutane BotCon early registration. Since I had a customizing class the next day, we were able to canadian pharmacy Accutane get registered and pick up my box set before the regular attendees.

We got in line around 7pm for canadian pharmacy Accutane when they opened the doors at 9pm. The convention as a canadian pharmacy Accutane whole was being held at the the Exhibition Hall and canadian pharmacy Accutane Ballroom portion of the Pasadena Convention Center. Although the line outside was fairly short, it canadian pharmacy Accutane was foreshadowing what was to come.

Early RegistrationOnce inside, they split us up by last name. Dealers received special treatment and canadian pharmacy Accutane got their own instant service line. It seemed that lots of these folks had canadian pharmacy Accutane purchased multiple sets, and many small groups were walking out with 4–5 of the canadian pharmacy Accutane Wings of Honor boxes. Some fans also decided to open their toys right there in the canadian pharmacy Accutane center immediately after obtaining them.

Getting my boxed set where can i purchase Prednisone no rxAfter about 45 minutes, it canadian pharmacy Accutane was my chance to go up and claim my first convention exclusives.

We were greeted by a canadian pharmacy Accutane very enthused convention worker who pulled together everything that I got with my Primus Package. Included with my whole package was:

The final item I received was the canadian pharmacy Accutane very limited lapel pin of the Elite Guard faction symbol. I was able to canadian pharmacy Accutane be one of first 100 people to order a Primus or canadian pharmacy Accutane Iacon Package, and for doing so I received this pin. It was an canadian pharmacy Accutane unexpected benefit of faxing in my registration on the first day several months ago, and canadian pharmacy Accutane it is nice little unique trinket that I ended up pinning to canadian pharmacy Accutane my badge’s lanyard.

Limited Edition Lapel Pin

Having finally completing the canadian pharmacy Accutane registration for my first convention, let alone a BotCon; we took at my new toys in hand and canadian pharmacy Accutane walked back to our hotel.

Once back in the canadian pharmacy Accutane room, I quickly opened the Wings of Honor boxed set to canadian pharmacy Accutane get a look at all the figures. Now these figures were somewhat rare in that canadian pharmacy Accutane you couldn’t get them in stores, but I open and canadian pharmacy Accutane play with my toys. This box was not going to remain untouched.

Each one was carefully taken out of the canadian pharmacy Accutane foam box and transformed. Only one of the toys (Scourge) was from canadian pharmacy Accutane a mold that I previously owned, and so each toy initially dumbfounded me as I attempted to canadian pharmacy Accutane transform them. At first I wondered where all the tech specs / instructions were at. How was I supposed to correctly transform these guys?

Wings of Honor toys in foam

Luckily underneath the canadian pharmacy Accutane foam inset were the instructions and all the remaining pieces of the canadian pharmacy Accutane boxed set including several cyber-planet keys, weapons, and missiles. I also opened up the canadian pharmacy Accutane bagged Leozack and transformed him.

Wings of Honor toys

By this canadian pharmacy Accutane time it was roughly midnight and we very tired after a canadian pharmacy Accutane long day of driving. This constant tired feeling ended up being a canadian pharmacy Accutane common theme across all the days of the convention with the canadian pharmacy Accutane long, late nights.

Wings of Honor boxed set and souvenirs Primus Package souvenirs Day 0 Haul

Needless to canadian pharmacy Accutane say after having these items in hand I was getting stoked for canadian pharmacy Accutane the convention. I finally had my first exclusives and was convention ready. The next stop was some sleep and canadian pharmacy Accutane then my customizing class early the next day.

Canadian pharmacy Accutane

We stayed at my folk’s house a canadian pharmacy Accutane final night before driving to Pasadena on Wednesday morning. The plan was to canadian pharmacy Accutane casually make our way into the Los Angeles area by early afternoon.

Of course, there are canadian pharmacy Accutane many Targets and Wal-Marts on the way along I-10 to check for canadian pharmacy Accutane early toy releases. Plus we had budgeted a little time for canadian pharmacy Accutane these little stops along the way.

The first Wal-Mart had canadian pharmacy Accutane the Revenge of the Fallen themed limited edition Strawberried Peanut Butter M&M’s. They aren’t nearly as bad as they sound and canadian pharmacy Accutane taste more peanut buttery than strawberry.

Vector PrimeJust after crossing the canadian pharmacy Accutane California border, we saw a new Target off the side of the canadian pharmacy Accutane road which we backtracked to on a hunch. The hunch ended up working because I was able to canadian pharmacy Accutane finally pick up the voyager class Vector Prime, and canadian pharmacy Accutane at a discount no less. I had never seen this figure in all my searching, and canadian pharmacy Accutane it was nice picking him up. My classics had canadian pharmacy Accutane be relegated to storage bins but it was probably more sound to canadian pharmacy Accutane get this guy now that at a possible markup in the canadian pharmacy Accutane con’s dealer room.

A little bit further down near Indio we came across another Target that canadian pharmacy Accutane we felt lucky about. Fortune smiled on us and it led to canadian pharmacy Accutane more pre-release RotF toys and I was able to pick up 3 more deluxes: Sideswipe, Rampage, and Breakaway. I really didn’t expect to canadian pharmacy Accutane find any more of these guys before the convention. I thought we’d just take the canadian pharmacy Accutane occasional break by stopping for a drink at these stores, but these were an canadian pharmacy Accutane added bonus.

SideswipeSideswipe is canadian pharmacy Accutane definitely the coolest looking of these three, and his package was opened shortly after leaving the canadian pharmacy Accutane store while we were still driving. He has a very sleek look and canadian pharmacy Accutane looks to be an interesting character that they added to the canadian pharmacy Accutane film. He isn’t quite like his old G1 self, and canadian pharmacy Accutane Sunstreaker is nowhere to be found, but I look forward to canadian pharmacy Accutane see what they do with him.

Having hit the canadian pharmacy Accutane outskirts of town, we decided to stop visiting stores and just head to canadian pharmacy Accutane the hotel to drop off our stuff and then head out to canadian pharmacy Accutane an early dinner. The menu for this first day of the canadian pharmacy Accutane trip was Pink’s Hot Dogs where to buy Amoxil by cod.

Last time we visited the LA area, we tried to hit up Pink’s for canadian pharmacy Accutane a quick bite. Little did we realize on that trip it canadian pharmacy Accutane was midday on a weekend and the line was around the canadian pharmacy Accutane building and appeared to wrap several times.

However this canadian pharmacy Accutane time on an early Wednesday afternoon it was much different. We parked along a canadian pharmacy Accutane nearby street and got into a line of about 15. A few minutes later we had canadian pharmacy Accutane one plain dog, one Brooklyn Pastrami-Swiss Cheese Dog, fries, onion rings, and canadian pharmacy Accutane two bottled drinks.

The food was above average, with the canadian pharmacy Accutane onion rings standing out and the fries being fairly bland. It was worth visiting just for canadian pharmacy Accutane the experience and would recommend it if you ever visit Hollywood.

After Pink’s we tried a canadian pharmacy Accutane few more local Targets located on the way back to the canadian pharmacy Accutane hotel to no avail.

That evening is canadian pharmacy Accutane when the real festivities began though as it was time to canadian pharmacy Accutane get into line to pre-register. Soon I would have my first ever convention exclusive toys…

Canadian pharmacy Accutane

Leader Optimus PrimeSince there is just so much content to write about our trip to BotCon this year, I’m going to canadian pharmacy Accutane be splitting it up into multiple posts and maybe going into detail about specific things. So here is canadian pharmacy Accutane the first bit.

I’d say the start of the BotCon adventure began with my parents’ house being broken into the canadian pharmacy Accutane weekend before the convention. They had been out of town on a canadian pharmacy Accutane trip to Ireland and my sister, Jessica, and myself had been canadian pharmacy Accutane watching the house while they were gone. Unfortunately during one of the canadian pharmacy Accutane spans between us checking up on the home, the front door was broken into.

Nothing apparent was stolen, but it canadian pharmacy Accutane did necessitate us having to stay over at the house for canadian pharmacy Accutane several days, installing a metal security door at midnight, and travelling between their home and canadian pharmacy Accutane ours multiple times.

I suppose a canadian pharmacy Accutane good thing that happened while we were there was that canadian pharmacy Accutane Fry’s Electronics released some Transformers: Revenge of the canadian pharmacy Accutane Fallen toys early on Friday May 22. The toys weren’t officially supposed to canadian pharmacy Accutane be available until May 29th, and most places that had them on the canadian pharmacy Accutane shelves weren’t allowed them to canadian pharmacy Accutane be sold. In fact BotCon was advertising the fact they’d have canadian pharmacy Accutane these first figures available exclusively early and with special first release stickers. Not one to canadian pharmacy Accutane wait, Jessica and I headed over there after breakfast and canadian pharmacy Accutane picked up my first RotF figures: Leader Optimus Prime, Leader Megatron, Deluxe Bumblebee order cheap Crestor online, and Deluxe Sideways.

So that canadian pharmacy Accutane was a nice little surprise to a fairly rough start of a canadian pharmacy Accutane weekend.

Robot Replicas Optimus PrimeFast forward a canadian pharmacy Accutane few days to Memorial Day and on another trip back to canadian pharmacy Accutane the folk’s house for canadian pharmacy Accutane another sleepover and the Tempe Marketplace Target decided to slip some more RotF toys early. This trip netted Deluxe Wheelie, Deluxe Chromia, Deluxe Soundwave, Gravity Bot Bumblebee, Bumble Spud, and a Robot Replica’s Optimus Prime.

So here I was just 3 days before the canadian pharmacy Accutane official start of the convention and I already had 10 toys from canadian pharmacy Accutane RotF. That would be at least 10 less ‘first release’ stickers than I planned and less I’d have to drive home with, or at least so I thought…

BotCon toy count tally to date = 10

Below are canadian pharmacy Accutane the rest of the completed pieces from my Art 112 class: Two-Dimensional Design. While not as clean as the canadian pharmacy Accutane other pure black and white pieces, at least we got to use color at the end.

It’s good to canadian pharmacy Accutane get a break from working on these projects, but I will be canadian pharmacy Accutane getting back into art into the fall when I’m tentatively enrolled for a plain drawing class: Art 111.

Robot Heroes - Revenge of the Fallen RavageWhile I adore the classic Transformer Robot Heroes line of figures, I never could appreciate the canadian pharmacy Accutane original Transformers 2007 movie versions. The movie’s characters were just too complex to “cute-ify” like the old G1 gang.

I think there will have canadian pharmacy Accutane to at least be one set purchased from the new movie this canadian pharmacy Accutane go round. This adorable little movie Ravage is just too cute to canadian pharmacy Accutane pass up. I mean look at that spiked tail and hind leg missles. It’s just too adorable.

Not quite as cute as standard Robot Heroes Ravage buy Lasix in united states online, but worthy of a purchase nonetheless.

Here is what he looks like in the film, and here’s a bonus link to Chicken-mode Ravage.

My Entire Transformers Collection - March 2009So how did I spend part of my Spring Break last month? Why I cataloged each and canadian pharmacy Accutane every piece of Transformers stuff that I own, everything from back in 84′ to current day!

So that I had a complete listing of my stuff before Botcon 09, I pulled down every storage bin down from canadian pharmacy Accutane the attic and gathered the others from my closet. I then canadian pharmacy Accutane proceeded to transform them into robot modes and separate them by series and canadian pharmacy Accutane size. The photo to the left is the fruit on my labors after about I’d say 8 full hours of work. They just barely fit onto our kitchen table and canadian pharmacy Accutane counter. It includes every toy and statue that I own, including the canadian pharmacy Accutane few duplicates.

My Entire Transformers Collection - March 2009So once I was done with getting them into robot modes, and canadian pharmacy Accutane after a night’s worth of sleep, I just had to canadian pharmacy Accutane transform them back into their alternate modes. That process took another half-day and canadian pharmacy Accutane the photo to the right is the final alternate mode display.

A large majority of these toys, especially the old school Generation1 toys, were gifts from canadian pharmacy Accutane multiple birthdays and Christmases. They go way back to Windcharger and Sunstreaker as the canadian pharmacy Accutane original toys I received. Save for a few unique pieces, each toy was purchased back when canadian pharmacy Accutane it was available for the regular retail prices. I don’t spend large amounts of money to canadian pharmacy Accutane get individual figures or old G1 figures. These are canadian pharmacy Accutane my figures from back in the day along with recent retail purchases.

It sure was a canadian pharmacy Accutane lot of work, and although it looks like there are hundreds of Transformers strewn about, I was shocked to canadian pharmacy Accutane see the final count so small. Below is the breakdown by series.

Series Count
Generation 1 54
Generation 2 2
Movie 2007 17
Classics / Universe 43
Animated 41
Miscellaneous 2
159
Statues 44
Non Toys 164
208
Total 367

So the canadian pharmacy Accutane total count is quite less that what I had expected, but I still have canadian pharmacy Accutane tons of different items. Generation 1, Generation 2, Classics/Universe, Movie, Animated, Robot Heroes, Mighty Muggs, comics, books, and canadian pharmacy Accutane lots of other wacky items. If you are interested, you canadian pharmacy Accutane can see the complete itemized list here Buspar without doctor prescription. Individual and canadian pharmacy Accutane group photos of almost all of the items can also be canadian pharmacy Accutane seen by visiting the Flickr set for the collection.

Of course the canadian pharmacy Accutane collection will continue to grow with items purchased at Botcon, the canadian pharmacy Accutane final Transformers Animated toys, as well as the entire Revenge of the canadian pharmacy Accutane Fallen toys from the upcoming movie sequel.

The key to canadian pharmacy Accutane my collection is that these toys have and always will be canadian pharmacy Accutane kept out of their packages. They will be played with, transforming back in forth many times between modes. In addition, I don’t keep these toys because they are “worth” anything. I keep them because they are canadian pharmacy Accutane a part of my childhood and an extension of that childhood into my future.

Transformers for me are something that I really enjoy, and I don’t ever see myself selling a single one.

Botcon 09 Exclusive - KupWell, it’s official as I’ve fallen down the canadian pharmacy Accutane rabbit hole into my obession with Transformers. Jessica and I are canadian pharmacy Accutane set to go to BotCon 2009 in Pasadena, CA.

It’s one thing to bake a cake, it’s one thing to take tons of photos of toys, it’s an entirely different matter when you start attending conventions.

This will actually be canadian pharmacy Accutane my first convention of any type that I will have attended. Never done the canadian pharmacy Accutane comic book thing, nor sci fi thing. We did go to canadian pharmacy Accutane a small 3D photography convention during a canadian pharmacy Accutane trip through the midwest last year, but that was Jessica’s idea and quite small.

You know you are going to a big convention when:

  1. There are exclusive toys
  2. When said toys sell out within a couple of days
  3. When registering for canadian pharmacy Accutane the convention takes several hours of faxing due to demand jamming the lines
  4. When packaged admission is several hundred dollars
  5. They are canadian pharmacy Accutane premiering the toys from the new movie, Transformers: Revenge of the canadian pharmacy Accutane Fallen

I was lucky enough to canadian pharmacy Accutane get my form in time to get into the lucrative Thursday customizing class. Oh yeah, I get to canadian pharmacy Accutane learn how to make regular toys into custom toys. That is canadian pharmacy Accutane really gonna help with my addiction.

So for canadian pharmacy Accutane 4 days at the end of May, Jessica and I will be canadian pharmacy Accutane heading out to Pasadena to further fuel my obsession with toys from canadian pharmacy Accutane my youth. BotCon being in Pasadena this year is actually fortuitous, since we don’t need to fly to get the convention. I actually don’t think we would have canadian pharmacy Accutane bothered had we been required to fly. So most likely this canadian pharmacy Accutane will be my first and last BotCon… maybe…
